I have a group of friends that are essentially the opposite of what I think, keeping them as friends is a challenge. Without reaching the point of being actual Nazis, they are as far right as they get, and also ancaps. They expose me to the internals of how they think, is very interesting.

Ubuntu 2006 (I think), they mailed me a literal cd with it, how to resist to that.

Ignore me, seems like I’m wrong, is based on Ubuntu. This was a weird Mandela effect

It’s fedora instead of debian, but uses a very tuned version of gnome. I personally didn’t like a few things, I’m a debian man, I love the simplicity and stability. The older I get, the more I appreciate spartan things.

Slightly offtopic, but I’m looking for a new terminal, can I have some recommendations? I feel like Warp is not going to be on the list.

I think you don’t get it, modern Santa is so far away from his origins, at the point is not a christian figure anymore. I mean, christmas elves? A flying pack of reindeer? To me, is just a very happy and oversized leprechaun. Not very christian if you mind me lol. Not bad per se, but it’s good to keep in mind christian symbols are different than this red hat.

TIL coca cola didn’t create it, ty

If the “changes” are all your files, discarding them for me means basically delete my files, you know, the ones you are trying to add.

Fuck around things you don’t understand, find out. Why even go near the source control area and start clicking stuff if you don’t know jack shit about it.

What religious symbol? Saint Nicholas had nothing to do with the fat guy dressed in red that coca cola made up. The hat is fine goddammit

Actually if you give people bread and circus, they are easy to control too. And we have plenty of circus, so…

Non Americans are not people, so they don’t count towards the casuality tally.

Germany attacked Poland first, but everyone lost their shit when they invaded France, so yeah, it’s when euro people fight.

Disclaimer: I don’t recall this correctly, I might be wrong, as I remember they started the thing with France early on grabbing a piece of land that they lost after WW1

When one of the sides speaks English

Scranton. WHAT? The electric city!

I enjoy working in my field, but as other commenter said, I have no interest on working until death for shareholders to be happy. I do plan to work until I’m dead, incapable or just tired, but I’m planning to enjoy it while it lasts.

Independence for me would be not having to respond to a higher up, just me, my craft, and peaceful money earned by not overstressing my ass. I’m building my own house now, after I have a place to live without rent, I have no more ambitions than eating, sleeping and be with my loved ones. I don’t need to overwork my ass to death to get that. Maybe 4 hours a day, or two-three days a week should be enough.

I think most people would do the same if they could, most people like working, they just despise the oppression of this rigged system.

Oh, I think I understand your point, but we do have different definitions of what a scam is.

For me, if the guys getting fucked are capitalists or huge investing firms that were trying to leverage their money to make more money just from speculation and not being actually involved, that’s not a scam, that justice. Economic bubbles happen because big money guys are trying to gamble the system to start with, so karma.

In the other hand, crypto scams are more close to a conman selling snake oil to the uneducated masses, that for me is a full fledged scam.

Web 1 and 2 were a pile of scams? Wthdym

They are going to complain about erasure then, you can never please the right-wing crowd, don’t try to.

I have a half baked story about friends, and the only white guy is a decoy hero that turns out to be the villain and dies a horrible death, leading the way to reveal the actual enemies of the story, cats.

What I say is, to hell with right wingers, they will hate your story if they are not the center of attention. Most media that includes minorities, does so putting them as token characters, so they don’t rob the spotlight to the white person. Write whatever story feels good for you, aim to write the best story you can, and even if right wingers attack, you had made people happy with your work.
