Ha, that made my night. Thank you kind stranger

Act Raiser?

Yeah, he has a mild ressemblance to 1960s William Shatter around the eyes.

This has been a thing for years. They have to have realized by now

Follow-up: The icing on the cake was a release or so ago when apt started queueing the snap package's installation instead. Very clever, but also a confusing user experience. It took a few iterations before I understood the snap was getting installed instead of the deb.

Firefox is one of the worst snaps. It pops up an annoying notification everyday reminding you to restarted it. Then came the crashing. It got to a point where I couldn't keep my browser running more than a few minutes at a time.

I wanted to like snaps, and I'm not overall negative on Ubuntu, but keeping the web browser functional is minimum requirement. The Firefox PPA is much more reliable.

It's strange how we react differently to things. Closed spaces eventually start bothering me.

I love this picture. Wide open spaces are comforting to me.

This is a helpful explanation. The distinction between these terms is not so obvious and people believe they know the meanings without comprehending them.

Somebody is salty. I think it's me. Mmmm olives

Yw

Well done content. Also, excellent presentation

I hate this so much. This is worse than The Game

Agreed, I sure am glad Lemmy was here to catch us. What would we have done if it hadn't been ready and waiting?

It sucks. PT can help. I've had some success with the McKenzie method.

Many years ago I ran Gentoo as well. Switching to Arch was a considerable upgrade. I admit I've been running Ubuntu since Lucid (aside a brief stint of Fedora). It's nice that things mostly just work. It allows me to focus on life and not wifi drivers. Man, that sounds like such a cop out.

Anyhow, there's part of me that would love to play with those cosmic distros again some day.

After reading this, I'm afraid Dr. Google has some bad news for you.

This is a well written. Thanks. Anyone who needs persuading should read the above.

Ugh, I can vouch that back pain is real.

I don't often hear it called libre software, but I like it. Better than open source or free software. I'm glad this kind of discussion is back again. It's more important than ever with the increasingly clear unfolding corporate takeover of the Internet.
