Bring back Linux Mint KDE
I just got my Official Autism Diagnosis™️ and I think Yud's post is gross as hell
Why, uh. Why was that your first thought.
"Just pretend it's always been Linux" is a bold move. I salute 12-year-old you o7
Yeah, I unfortunately didn't know about the "Nvidia hates Linux" thing when I bought this laptop. I guess I know better for next time.
Garuda might be worth a try. I used it for a couple months and really enjoyed it, I only stopped because Nvidia drivers kept breaking.
My least favorite is Linux Lite. It's supposed to be a lighter, simpler version of Ubuntu but I don't think it accomplishes this at all. It's very slow for something that's supposed to be lightweight, and still includes Snaps, which are also very much not lightweight. Plus its software center is just bad, which is not great for something that's marketed at Linux noobs. Linux Mint XFCE or SpiralLinux are better options for a Linux noob who needs a lighter distro, IMO.
An improvement I'd suggest: obviously, ditch Snaps. Another would be to take a look at what Bodhi Linux does and have the "software center" run in the browser. I don't know how good this is security-wise, but it definitely speeds things up from the UX side of things.
Changed the gender. Kind a pain in the ass but totally worth it.
You're allowed to be annoyed by it. That's an annoying thing to have happen. But yelling at her won't fix the situation, and as you've already noted, is only going to make things worse. Feeling angry is OK. Taking it out on someone else is not.
Can you take that emotion and do something else with it? Make a piece of art, play a shoot 'em up game, listen to an angry song, etc?
Not exactly, but I don't blame you for being confused. I didn't realize my own wording was ambiguous! "Counterfeit Florida Plates" is the name of the song where the type of lyrics I'm referring to are used. An example:
Steal some sunscreen/From the CVS/Use too much/And make a great big mess/Wait where shadows/Mask or hide my scent
Normally a sentence starting with a verb like that is an imperative or a command, with "you" being the understood subject. But here, the narrator is talking about himself in first person ("mask or hide my scent"). So I was wondering if that usage had a name.
Traditionally, Girl Scout Cookies are a once-a-year thing, where people will buy cookies from their local GS troops, who often set up tables at events, stores, parks, etc. But the internet has made it possible to do stuff like this, where you can get your cookies from specific places and maybe send your money where it's needed more. So for example, Troop 6000 is a GS troop specifically for kids who are homeless in NYC; if you live in a pretty affluent neighborhood and you think your local Girl Scouts are good on money, you could support Troop 6000 instead.
I've been using GrapheneOS for a couple years now, both with and without the Google compatability apps. I vastly prefer without, but I'm lucky in that my credit union's app will function without Google.
