This. So many left-leaning folks that I’ve talked to basically have this attitude, and present it to me like they are winning at life.

That is hilarious, I still don’t watch Star Trek but Linux is an absolute Revelation bro! I am totally converted over the last few months!

Wow 2 years already?! Let’s fucking go Lemmy!

Micro-flaccid shit holes

Wow! Is that a gaming specific distro?

I recently did, and it’s the best thing ever! I should have done this ages ago. I went with Fedora plasma on my old laptop! ❤️ I can see how basically any distro is going to be fantastic coming from either of the other choices tho

This is one of the biggest problems going on right now. That people don’t have a knowledge of their own morality, not in any tangible, processed way. People resort to following a person who they believe has the morality they seek, but their own decisions are actually based on a combo of feelings and whatever dogma they may have with no real analysis or improvement being done with any consistency. It would fix a hell of a lot of problems if your average person was breaking down the implications of their own morality and developing a defensible philosophical position. For most I observe that is farther than the average person is willing to parse. It seems that this has led many to base essentially their entire philosophy of right vs wrong (as far as they can actually explain it without just saying “God”) on a series of impactful sounding, but ultimately hollow, sound bites or snappy retorts that don’t have any actual substance.

Hmmm, wow I am maybe a tiny bit afraid haha. Thank you for the info though. That would be interesting to experiment with!

Well, I am a beginner to Linux but I have been pretty well involved with Windows systems in the past. Not that I necessarily want the appearance of Windows. I guess I’m looking for lightweight recommendations specifically, right now to bring this laptop back from like a 5+minute boot time

My wife is leaning toward Ubuntu “MATE”, how would you feel about that versus the Debian and you mentioned. Personally I was thinking about mint

Would you say Debian is the lightest weight distro? Basically this will be used for college work maybe and just internet work stuff otherwise. So I’m trying to see just how well I can get this laptop to run at the baseline hardware.

Are you talking about plasma Fedora?

It does have 64

Why don’t you play it?

Greatest video ever

I’m totally here for the sentiment, but I think it’s just because the average person might not know one or the other of these words. They’re both pretty specific in their usage.
