  • I know you're kidding, but when I travel to the BVIs, Antigua, the Caribbean in general, they all hold Trump in very high esteem, they're surprised I don't actually.

    People in developing countries (am I allowed to say that anymore?) see him as a rogue outsider that beat the political elite at their own game by being himself.

    They don't see that he was a tool for another set of corrupt politicians to get two justices and maybe two more, they just see a hero.

    Edit: Why the fuck are you down voting? This is my experience in other countries. They look up to the piss baby man child. These are candid conversations with real people y'all. I know he's a billionaire piece of shit, but that's not the messaging getting out to the rest of the world.

  • I was strictly Linux for years, but got tired of every single install, game, non-FOSS, and driver being a one to two hour ordeal. But seeing how much it's improved through the posts on here makes me want to try it again.

  • I think the main takeaway is that at the lower/intermediate skill levels, character selection is open. What you're talking about would only apply in the highest tiers.

  • I mean, I remember way back when, some people called suped up cars "rice burners." I've certainly never heard it applied to a computer. But meh, I can see your points. Still blocking them because I don't know how many times I need to read that China good US bad, so it's a win in the end.

    I'll take this as a learning moment.

  • I think that says a lot about your character though. You'd be sad someone took it from you, but you'd move on. Whereas someone else may see the world as a darker place where everyone is trying to steal what little they've created.

    I think your interpretation tells me you're an amazing person.
