I can get actually good tacos for that much
I'll be happy if any trees are still alive in 30 years
@Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net is advising him
It's not a competition, you don't need to compare yourself to your coworkers or police their work ethic.
Now if they're ordering you around that's another issue.
The judge said it’s natural for individuals to have ideological differences, but “you can’t resort to physical violence when you believe the other team is wrong.”
Counterpoint:
In the last month, two people have, unprompted, brought up the myth of panhandlers driving luxury cars as if it's a real thing. Both were well-meaning libs.

Yes, but my grandparents had a collection of Mad Magazines at their house.

You ever mix a bunch of different sodas together from the fountain? I did that once and accidentally made something that tasted exactly like bubble gum. I haven't been able to reproduce it since
Hell yeah!
I've still got a couple Bernie 2020 bumper stickers here somewhere if anyone wants them

Looking for an article, video, podcast, etc that debunks the western propaganda
I've tried clearing all browsing data and it keeps giving me an error. It works fine on Firefox and the mobile version of Chrome.
I got an old Windows 7 laptop that was going to be thrown out and decided to put Linux on it (see previous thread here). Most people suggested I go with the latest stable version of Debian, so that's what I installed. I've mostly used Windows, but I do have some experience with Ubuntu.
The installation went smoothly, but I've had a few problems getting it set up to my liking:
- I can't figure out how to setup flatpak. Everything seems to be working fine until I enter the last line in the terminal: > flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
I hit enter and nothing happens. No error message or anything. I restarted the computer but flatpak doesn't work, either through the software center or the flatpak website. I found a few forum posts with the same problem, but no solutions.
-
I somehow set it up so that my username is not the super user, so I have to type a password in the terminal every time I want to use sudo. Is there a way to fix this without a clean install?
-
I somehow set up the hard drive partitions so that the OS is on an encrypted partition, so I have to put in a password for the BIOS to boot up. Is there a way to fix this without a clean install?
-
I'm used to a desktop interface with a toolbar/start menu that I can pin frequently-used programs to, but with Debian it seems like I need to click "Activities" to do anything. Is there a way to set up the interface so it's more like Windows in that regard?
-
If I need to do a clean install, I'm thinking of switching to Ubuntu, since I'm more familiar with the interface. Is there any reason why I should stick with Debian? I've heard some people trashing Ubuntu but I'm not sure why. Is Debian better for older hardware?
Edit: Thanks for all the knowledgeable replies. I did a fresh install of Debian 12 (64 bit) with KDE and it seems to have resolved all my problems. Although it's a little slow and buggy, I've had to reboot it twice. I'll try a lightweight DE if that continues.

Maybe I'm being paranoid, but I've seen lots of suggested videos lately on how to build DIY rockets
I've used Ubuntu in the past so that's what I'm thinking of using, but if anyone has another suggestion I'm open to ideas. I'm looking for something user-friendly and lightweight when it comes to hardware requirements. The laptop will mostly be used for web browsing and streaming video, if I can get that to work.
