Is anyone having security issues without this patch?

I always hated the concept of PPAs and it's a major reason why I never use Debian-based distros for my PC.

The AUR is just too valuable.

For the uninitiated, bazzite isn't really a battle-tested distro or a mainstream one. I just started hearing about it within the past few months.

It kind of came out of nowhere and looks to be getting shilled hard, similar to mx linux. The amount of shilling you may see for it does not correspond with usage among the community at all.

Be careful what you install on your computers, guys.

I think Mint is great for beginners and advances users alike.

If you're feeling more confident, you could try Debian. Debian will have older software and be harder to setup, but you'll get a better feel for the Linux ecosystem by using it over Mint.

Manjaro is for practical usage. You'll have more up-to-date software and access to a massive user repository of install scripts for anything that isn't in the official software repositories.

Your choice of Desktop Environment will have a big impact on how you use your computer. I recommend KDE for those coming from Windows. With a small amount of configuration, you can have it set up like a traditional desktop environment with the start menu on the left, show desktop on the right, notifications towards the right, etc.

KDE has a lot of stuff, but you can only choose what you need and you'll notice it's great at being a basic DE even though it's capable of more.

Odds are because there isn't one.

Abusers will always try to justify their abuse by saying their victims "don't understand" why it's "necessary."

Use-case?

She looks pretty gross, but maybe she was hot 30 years ago?

Just like prices ending in .99, a significant amount of useful idiots are going to look at the word “lost” and assume it means killed.

Great stuff. I find leading by example is the best way to go.

Refusing to buy things in front of your peers is very effective from what I've noticed.

The thing is, for the war it doesn’t really have much meaning whether the loss is through death or a serious wound.

Not true. A soldier that's killed isn't going back home to his family. He'll never have kids. He'll never contribute to the economy ever again.

Trying to say kills don't matter in a war is retarded.

"Russia suffered x casualties in y time."

Just like prices ending in .99, a significant amount of useful idiots are going to look at the word "lost" and assume it means killed.

That's how propaganda works and it shouldn't have to be spelled out for you.

These discussions never lead to anything productive.

I firmly-believe most people who engage in them are autistic.

Americans haven't given up their consumerism, so a general strike is out of the question.

They need money for subscribing to digital entertainment they can be getting for free and to order food with delivery apps at 100% markup.

This generation sucks.

Slowly. Luigi was a good start.

If Americans want to revolt, they'll have to do it in the shadows.

Any common man can kill a rich person. No organized resistance is required, and any organized resistance is going to be infiltrated by the FBI and shut down before anything significant happens.

It would be neat if the heroes that kill our oppressors end up getting social media famous as they do it.

and will have ideas that I disagree with.

I honestly think this is code for, "I like what they do, but I hope they don't raise my taxes."

Also, "There's no way they can have solutions that are better than mine!"

Do you think AOC would have a better chance at winning than... kamala harris?

but I would like to see her take another 5-10 years to learn how to broaden her appeal.

This kind of "we're not ready yet" mindset is what lets republicans eat our lunch again and again.

"Broadening appeal" is also dumb as fuck when the candidates that do run routinely get ~30% of the vote. They already don't have "broad appeal."

Stop playing into the ruling classes handbooks by giving up before we even begin.

Bernie should have won.

Fuck everyone who voted for hillary clinton in the 2016 primary.

They need to be tarred and feathered.

I totally agree with what you're saying.

If we keep rewarding people with social praise every time they contribute to the problem, they're going to keep contributing to the problem.

This is what I mean by changing as a culture. We need to value different things.
