I gave up on playing chess. The game has become such a metaphor, such a fetish symbol for intellect, so every dude “knows how to play”, but won’t risk the humiliation of loss, and therefore won’t play. I don’t enjoy online chess, so I just don’t get to play.

This is true! Ignorance of Linux is the no1 reason people don’t adopt it. This is doubly hard for Window-brains because the concept of choosing an OS is foreign to them. From their perspective it’s your boss, your school, or your parents who choose your OS.

I found the motorcycle driving in this game to be painful. Your ride is one of the things that you upgrade, so at the beginning, your bike is slow, can’t turn, and runs out of gas after a mile. It does get better, but early game is frustrating.

Even with the wardrobe, they couldn’t pull off sexual connection. There is more chemistry in this scene than anything with Anikin and Padme.

I heard he was flying around looking for collectibles.

If we were to erase the contributions of assholes, abusers, and shitheads the way we do frauds, it would set science, philosophy, and mathematics back hundreds of years.

If only people could accept that English being a living language isn’t just about the past, but words are changing now, and that’s OK.

This is for the people who gouge their own eyes out when they hear people say “unalived”; the people who (suspiciously) insist on the clinical definition of pedophile; and “it’s called a magazine actually” gun-brains.

Either I don’t understand your comment, or you don’t understand chmod. What you describe ins’t beyond chmod; it’s the basic functionality of chmod.

Mastering file permissions is a big part of becoming Linux capable. And it essential to the “everything is a file” ethos. Wanna lock down an important file or program? chmod is a powerful ally.

Microslop has tried to adopt a half-ass elevated permissions scheme, but with lame-ass UAC and users who’ve no idea why Explorer doesn’t have administrator rights on their administrator account.

Where I live, we have a problem with American cockroaches. American cockroaches are a good news/ bad news kinda deal. The good news is that they nest out of doors so they don’t live in your house, and their presence is not necessarily a commentary on your housekeeping.

The bad news is that they will get into your house and they’re about 4 times bigger than the German cockroaches that everyone is familiar with. You can hear them crawling, and they can fly.

I asked the exterminator how to get rid of them for good, and his advice was to move.

I think the proposition of avoiding American tech in general will become more and more attractive in the coming years. Governments are already trying to move away from Microsoft for national security reasons. That’ll have the knock-on effect of putting Linux and Libra Office in front of more people at work and school.

In combination with the advances in Linux gaming, This may be the first time since the 80s where the OS you’re first exposed to will be anything other than Windows or Mac.

This story isn’t about mental illness. This story is about a black immigrant who was sexually violent.

The offense people take over sexual violence has more to do with the status of the victim and attacker than it does with the act it’self. Rape is barely even illegal so long as you choose your victim wisely.

You know how to use Windows, not computers.

I’ve been off Microslop for over a year. I’ve barely logged in, mostly to do updates. But I understand Windows better now than I did when I left. That’s because Windows will teach you how to use Windows, while Linux will teach you how to use computers.

That comment about the terminal is funny, because powershell is one of the best things about Windows 10/11. And a real Windows user would know that.

That’s not true. Linux users do this waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than Microslop users. Microslop has billions of users, but fewer than 20 fanboys, worldwide.

Gulf of long Florida.

Andrew is still the second most hated royal ahead of the black lady.

The command pacman -Qm will display every package from the AUR on your system. You can then search the list of compromised packages.

I’ve been reminded that Muhammad was a pedo like 4 times this week! WTF are you talking about? You and OP are entitled to post whatever, but you’re not entitled for everyone to celebrate bigotry with you.

It’s always so funny to me the way Western Islamophobs like to point out Islamic misogamy as though they’re not exactly the kind of people that Western women had to fight to get those rights.
