That's cool.

Acceptable, but I'd rather just indulge in better stories instead.

Stop giving her more money to validate her current views.

In your defense, a bunch of the earlier reports about this straight up implied that was the case for the clickbait.

Of all the overpriced bullshit people flock to for no reason other than to be suckers, sneakers are the one that made the least sense to me.

This is true, but I can find a better role model on the bottom of my shoe. I wish people weren't so susceptible to his type of bullshit.

I like your optimism that people won't be fired anyway.

"Lauren Boebert" "called" ""Racist""

Hasn't been actually quiet in a long, long time.

Most of them do, gladly. They just want to save face by saying they disagree with her.

I was the right age for it too, read the first book at school, saw the first movie at some point. It never clicked and I never understood the fervor.

Glad to not see the usual "separate the art from the artist" crowd that can't stop giving her money to continue to be a fucking plague on humanity.

If people didn't come out of the woodwork to tell people welding was so simple that their 5 year could do it then maybe they'd be less turned off by the time and effort it takes to learn it.

Called it.

Specifically? I don't know. It would likely help if the conversation around new user distros was a bit less of an argument or if the number of suggested distros was a bit less. It would help with the decision paralysis aspect of it at least. I see enough threads of experienced users troubleshooting more than I really want to deal with, I stopped maintaining my modded skyrim installation because I was fixing when I could be playing and I don't like the idea of my whole computer being like that because I chose the wrong hardware (I have nvidia)

I know its one of the strengths of Linux, but I can't help but laugh that the response to "you can't agree on one, how can I?" is for several people to suggest several distros.

The fromsoft cult doesn't like that kind of talk, you're supposed to ignore performance issues, dictate to people how to play the game or else "they did it wrong", and tell people to GIT GUD.

Prove it.

The thing is, I don't care to distrohop and experiment with this or that. I just want to use my computer. Until I see a distro that can convince me that switching will be actually painless (not 'long time linux user painless', but 'casual new user that does more than just web browse' painless) I'll just use windows.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in my circle who even knows what Linux is.
