3.5 GB disk space required? I’ll just look out the window, thanks.

Not even with someone else’s dick.

I wouldn’t go anywhen. My dissatisfaction is intrinsic and the year is irrelevant.

US politics.

Rawr.

Like anything else, can be, depending on your needs.

It’s reddit, you get what you get. That’s why the majority of us stopped using it.

Can I ask why you can’t let them talk their nonsense? I know you don’t think you can change them so if you choose to hang out with them, why can’t you just let them be them? I’m not telling you that you should hang out with them, just that joining in on their discussion is a zero sum game.

I chose not to interact with family any longer and haven’t spoken to any of them in years. Not out of anger or spite but simply because none of us were getting anything positive from the relationship.

The senators were not the ones that exposed anything.

I think this is suitable here.

Could you tell me what would be lacking? There’s a surprising amount of bells and whistle s you can add to the setup. Check out bunsenlabs distro for an example.

It looks like its goal is to make everything less comfortable, not more.

I love OB with tint2 and conky , no de needed.

Do people usually just ignore these types of emails?

Yes, for the simple fact that half of the half trillion emails sent every day is spam mail. Trying to do something with them is a fool’s errand. Just delete and make the most of your day.

162 billion spam emails are sent every day, with 49% of the 333 billion daily emails sent, considered spam (numbers recorded for 2022).(source)

What a great ad.

Which is why I said “linux as a whole”. Many distros will try to undo the nerdery and neckbeardism that is built into the parent distros but as a whole, linux is going to always be less welcoming to a new user than someone that’s used to useless warnings and repeated password entries for elevated privileges. Being safer and being new-user-friendly rarely go hand in hand.

Yes but surely you’re aware that even the most new-user-friendly distros and their tools aren’t necessarily aimed at new users.

That warning is a perfect example of how Linux developers choose which hill to die on. They post a warning for an app that everyone knows can deliver bad times to two camps of users; those that know and don’t care and those that don’t understand the warning. If we could quantify the helpfulness of that warning, odds are that it saved 0 users from malicious action from that avenue of attack.

Never expect Linux as a whole to be “helpful” to the new crowd.
