Cheese balls. Giant tubs of cheese balls.

The prevailing attitude on Lemmy seems to be that Israel should be wiped from the face of the earth. Comments that don’t support the protesters are quite rare.

Marx Financial Freedom Steps

1. Buy a gun and ammo
2. Revolt against your oppressors
3. Don’t profit because profit is bad

I’ll believe it when I stop getting only rejection letters for entry level jobs.

The solution is to stop bailing out mismanaged companies. Crony capitalism/corporate socialism are scams.

When people of good conscience are forced to support a literal genocide because of how broken our system is…

When people are incapable of understanding nuance…

I pity the rest of you who would choose complacency and the path of least resistance over doing what’s right.

This is some extremist cool-aid stuff right here. I hope you find the care you need.

Associating Joe Biden so closely with genocide demonstrates a lack of capacity for understanding nuance. Supporting Israel doesn’t automatically equate to supporting Netanyahu’s genocide in Gaza, but it does indicate support for the Israeli (and by extension, Jewish) right to exist. One can simultaneously protest the genocide in Gaza and support a friendly, cooperative Israel.

Sounds like you got your daily dopamine hit. You should probably take a break from social media until you’ve calmed down.

Let me rewrite this headline:

“Democrats would rather elect a literal Nazi than Joe Biden”

Which is bull, but essentially what the article is saying.

If you won’t vote for Biden because of Gaza, you are an ignorant, narrow-minded idiot and you are handing Trump the presidency.

Why does Linux need to be more popular? This isn’t some NRM with a proselytizing mandate. Use whichever OS you prefer and let others do the same.

This is an extremely sheltered view. Most people don’t even know what an operating system is, and they assume that it is an unalterable component of the computer they purchased at Best Buy. They don’t have a last straw because as far as they’re concerned there isn’t anything they can do about it other than perhaps switching to a Mac.

Yeah, Microsoft is always trying to monetize things that shouldn’t be monetized. Linux won’t necessarily be easier, but it definitely won’t force you to watch ads in your application menu.

Thanks!

No problems that a person with “minimal computer expertise” has are likely to require editing the registry, and if they struggle with the Settings app in Windows, they will be completely befuddled by the vast array of configuration files they will have to search through for making changes on Linux.

I have minimal computer expertise.

This is the source of your problem. Unless you learn more about computers and how to use them, you’re guaranteed to have more problems on Linux than you’ve had on Windows.

The majority of the Windows gripes this community complains about are unlikely to ever be encountered by people with minimal expertise. Windows is fantastic as a layperson’s operating system (and many Linux distros are, as well), so your problems are probably user-caused.

This might be cliche, but the For Dummy’s books by Wiley were how I started learning about both Windows and Linux when I was a teenager. In fact, they were how I learned that Linux existed and sparked a curiosity in IT that is culminating in my graduation with an IT degree in July.

The Gamemaster’s Apprentice is the single tool you need for this scenario. Add in a playing card oracle and you can basically randomly generate a session on the fly.

You’re describing the median, not the average.

Yeah, OP definitely played hard mode lol

I wouldn’t have even gone to college if I didn’t have access to a privately subsidized university. That said, $40k of debt for four years of education doesn’t actually seem so bad, considering living expenses. Being able to live on $10k a year (or less) is impressive.
