dude you gotta get on the online pirate media streaming sites. Bflix, Sflix, Putlocker, soap2day etc etc etc. we've come a long way from the Limewire days. i used to have a whole Plex server and hundreds of files with subtitles, box art, descriptions, all hand curated over 100s of hours. Now i just use free pirate clearnet streaming sites
everything that people say is a word, and if it's said enough it ends up in the dictionary. unless you're editing a professional paper for grammar and spelling there's no point to be made here. everything people say is a word. you understood what they meant, didn't you?
you should be a little ashamed that you benefit greatly from their actions. Nobody thinks it's your personal fault, were just trying to get you to see how you have an unfair leg up over your darker skinned counterparts. Nobody wants you to apologize, you yourself didn't do anything. We just want you to understand that it's a little fucked up how your life is easier in general just because you're white, and we want you to try and figure out why that is
it's impossible to never experience those things when they're institutionalized. You don't have to actively feel or even know you're being supressed when it's going on behind the scenes.
why do nerds think theyre entitled to free content, you just look like a bunch of whiny babies. if you're gonna pirate do it with the same level of shame as everyone else
it's incredible how out of touch this community is with the average end user. I'd wager that MOST people don't know how, much less want to set custom flags for every one of their games. Believe it or not people actually like using nice GUIs and rely on simple intuitive frontends, and it's a massive failure on Valve's part considering they're the largest, most mainstream PC gaming platform.
Starbucks policy is to let you stay in the cafe no matter what. A few years ago they shut down every store for a day to train the workers on this. it was a whole thing.
which distro did you end up on? I started 2 weeks ago with Arch (bad first choice, but i learned a lot), moved to Ubuntu (seemed way too bloated and hard to customize), then PopOS (worse than Ubuntu), and now I'm moving from Manjaro back to Arch. I think that's where I'm gonna stay now that i know how to fix it up and use it.
The only thing i miss from Windows is Adobe, everything else is so much better on Linux. I love how i can customize literally anything and everything, and if i need something specific i can just make it
gen x easily the worst music era (excluding hiphop/rnb which really came into it's own during this generation)
Then: Vibrant creativity and authentic analog sound of the 60s-early 80s, all music was recorded with real instruments
Now: Availability and ease of use provided by computers/free software/internet meaning more music being made than ever before, plus algorithmic sorting providing exposure to only the best of the best the world has to offer.
In between: gen x oof i mean, Nickleback? really? come on
oof i wish it was that easy. that's the simple version of what i spent the last 2 weeks doing. On Windows I'd consider myself a power user. I get a lot of work done, quickly, and besides that I would say I'm pretty tech literate over all. But arch is just ridiculously difficult to understand how to use unless you're already very familiar with linux. I feel like any wrong move i make is gonna break my setup. i got my comptia A+ , which while very basic, definitely goes to show I'm not some random luddite
if you want desktop icons just configure and install something to do that. that's the best part about Linux is that your distro literally doesn't matter, it's just a good starting point to jump off and customize
i bet you could find some little tool to replace that easily. sucks though
