Good point - my thought is to go through that pain now while I’m still learning to use Linux properly. I’m not tied into anything yet so I can always swap something out if it doesn’t play with Wayland and gets too troublesome.

Began moving all my hardware to Linux this year since none of them will run win11 without fk-about-ing - and I just don’t want to. So my server, media box and laptop are all cut over, only my main desktop left on windows a bit longer but it’s goose is cooked too.

I’ve tried dozens of distros over the years but I’ve settled on Fedora KDE.

The why:

• Skipping x11 and head straight into Wayland so I don’t have to worry about that in the future.
• I wanted something more up to date than debian-based and less cutting edge then Arch-based.
• Stability and support of being in the RHEL family
• Flatpaks
• Tried to get on with gnome to get away from the ‘start menu’ paradigm but ended up getting on with kde better.

This fight can only go one of two ways:

Tyson wins, absolutely smoking this clown in round one - and I would be happy.

It is a draw, Tyson loses, Tyson wins but it’s close or Andre the Giant emerges in round 6 and beats them both, confirming the farce this event is.

Tyson was the most dangerous man in a boxing ring by a country mile. Even if he’s lost 80% of his peak strength, he hasn’t forgotten how to box and survive against the hardest punchers in the world.

Anything less that a total Tyson victory is a sign it is rigged/staged more than any fight in history. I would actually have more respect for this amateur clown if he’s allowed Tyson to legit fight and Jake goes down after the first hit.

Not OP but I suspect they mean adults that struggle with normal technology but thrive on ipads (can remember the button they use to open sodoku)

Nothing at all wrong with making technology easy to use for the masses, but this can create problems.

I don’t thank anyone else has posted this yet, so I’ll just leave it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wM8Xli2KTzI

I’m calling it now: Putin has abandoned Trump.

Since Kamala has come along and and stole all his thunder by being… normal, Trump has lost the plot, but the last two weeks are on a whole new level.

I believe that Putin is cutting his losses and has walked away from this dumpster fire. This is what’s causing Trump’s (even more) unusual behavior. Sure, he’s old and demented but the stress of losing his backing force has been weighing on him.

He’s stressed about what happens to him now. Without the backing of Daddy, if he loses, there is a good chance he’s finally held to account for his crimes. If he’s not, does Putin finally wield what he’s got over Trump to destroy him as punishment for failing?

But, don’t consider this job done. Trump still pulled it out in 2016 after being written-off in the polls. The only chance you crazy, freedom-loving Americans have is to vote. Vote like there is no tomorrow because imagine what terrible revenge Trump would be capable of, if he does get into power now after being so badly burnt!

It seems to me that its the profits that cause the crisis

Kraken konfirmed?

I heard from a reliable source that “they” also have a functional gender-swap ray gun - it was actually a happy accident they stumbled upon when they were trying to develop the weather control gun.

It’s quick, effective and eliminates the need for messy surgery and hormones that magas can ban.

They have already targeted the majority of the right wing figureheads in the media and the maga party. Jones, Hannity, MTG, Shapiro, Musk and many, many more. They’ve all been gender swapped and are desperately trying to keep this hidden from their supporters.

If you see strange behavior, nonsensical ramblings or angry tirades, this is one of the side-effects as their mind struggles with the sudden gender change.

Can I assume by that comment that you’re also a self-made millionaire?

No? Oh, why are you so lazy? After all, it just requires hard work. There are over a thousand self-made millionaires in my small town alone. The media call us a “statistical anomaly” but they just don’t see how easy it is if you just put down your 9-5 and get to work.

/s

Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely believe that hard work can get you there but it is very, very uncommon. I work bloody hard, have a good paying job, no debt and investments but will only have enough for an ok retirement.

Friends with their own business who are more driven, work even harder and longer than I do and are absolutely better off, but they’ll never earn the level of money like this article suggests.

My issue is with the disingenuousness of the article. This sort of success requires a huge amount of work, a once in the lifetime (for most people) idea or market to kickstart and even then often still requires a bucket of 7-leaf clover levels of luck. But it’s sold by the media as others have detailed “if you just work harder…”

Why aren’t the Dems packaging this message accurately?

“Trump wants to stop you dipping your wick. Will ban condoms - practically eliminating your chance of getting laid”

Too little, too late!

Oh ffs! He’s said he won’t run again if he loses this one, can we stop egging the idiot on until someone manages to get some cuffs on the pos?

Remember, we’re only in this position because Obama hurt his feelings by telling some jokes, making fun of old Donny. THANKS OBAMA! /s

I’m sure this fat greedy fuck would be edible if we slow roasted him, basted with a nice strong chili sauce

Good on you! I’ve found the best thing to do with upset babies is try to engage with the kid - ask the parents first(!) but babies are fascinated by new people in a way that parents can’t fulfill.

Story time: I had a crying 6mth old next to me earlier this year so I pulled out the safety sheet (asked the mum if I can show him this), channeled my inner Wiggles and kick-started it with a big, excited interruption to his crying: “wow, look at the plane!” The unexpected, strange interaction short circuits their focus on being upset and he just stopped and started at me like “wtf is this dude on?”. Once I had his attention I started pointing and describing all the pictures, then gave him the page. This turned into a 10min game of point at the picture, say the word or a story then hand it back. My names and descriptions for the people on the page got more crazy each time - after all, his were nonsensical too! I even got a few giggles as I kept it animated with hand gestures and big smiles. That turned into pointing out the windows or different things in the cabin.

The kid eventually got bored of the games after about 15-20 mins but had already forgotten he was upset and then peacefully interacted with his mum again for the rest of the flight. I got back to my book while he had the sky mag to read along like me and would still point out different pictures to me or check my book, puzzled why they were no pictures!

I even scored a tiny-dude high five as they were leaving which everyone knows are the best high fives.

Best flight I’ve had all year!

Being bad or evil is literally bad for your health.

The better you act, the better your health - great teeth, good muscle, low fat, high fitness, good looks, and longevity (to a point), no addiction or mental health issues, selfless with no crazy ego. Ie Mother Teresa looks like a supermodel!

Health can fluctuate based on behavior but it always drops 3x faster than it improves. So if you fuck around on your wife, your teeth go bad, or you start balding etc. cheat on your taxes, or lie maliciously (excl. good lies like Santa) you start to get fat n ugly.

If you’re a miserable prick who fires staff, scams people, bribes, hires children for sweatshops or harms people just to increase profit or boost share price you get cancer. But if you help those people then you may be cured provided you handle it really well and undo all the damage.

You attack someone, pedal harmful drugs or hoard unnecessary wealth, you go blind/deaf until you earn it back, more than once and it becomes permanent, each time after that you lose a limb for good.

You intentionally harm or kill someone via murder, drink driving, rape etc then it’s game over via a slow, long, painful debilitating disease that’s contagious to anyone you like or care about, ensuring you die alone.

To help identify the good/bad, your gut instincts are 10,000x more powerful and obvious to warn you of the dangers or benefits of each choice.
