Don’t know the situation in america so what you say may be true, but on some countries (developing ones where the power of the state is diminished) water is not free for everybody else, but multinational corporations get almost unlimited use concessions for their bottlers for a laughably low fee if any, drying out the area and sometimes literally leaving towns or regions with no public water left for other uses, forcing the people to have to pay for other sources. I don’t live in a place in that situation yet, but some other regions in my country are going exactly through that. In some cases, those beverages are for the american market.

I wouldn’t use a complete macos theme with the logo and everything, but the mac design language does have some pretty nice details that even help usability.

For example, I love the double outline that macos windows have, the normal darker line and another lighter inside. To me, it really separates windows when I am working with several, and they overlap (I use mac at work), in addition to looking nice and giving some depth. That’s just a little detail, but there are many like that one that is easy to see why someone could appreciate them.

Obviously it varies from person to person, there’s also stuff that I don’t like, but I do can see why someone would use a theme like that.

this warrants a new monitor for me, been holding out over a year with my old display, waiting for something and now I know what that was

-Me talking to people on twitter after nov 22 and before leaving

oh yes. I’m ready

of course because what reason would anyone have to assume anything? we are going into this situation completely without context or background, so we better wait for the FACTS to come out, that will surely be reliable and truthful because they come from a trusted source, the democratically elected government of a world leader.

/s just in case.

godamn lula.

I’m gonna switch to tumbleweed just for this, wanna have it as soon as stably possible

Amazing how every single part of your comment is so wrong.

It’s actually a really good analogy,

Not an analogy, an example. Those two are different things.

because it can only run on

No, it can run on many things, including open source collaborative hardware that exists.

fully-capitalist hardware.

What the hell even is that? Fun fact: until very recently most of the computer hardware was made in communist China. I know, scary. And now that a lot of effort is being made to get that production out of there, those efforts are being sponsored by public money to an incredible degree. Billions of dollars of taxes (you know, community resources) are being poured into that because big corporations are the biggest lovers of government handouts.

the whole Taylor swift worshipping (from people and media) really irks me because I thought it was not so long ago that everybody was talking about her private jet use and carbon dumping, but apparently it was a long time ago and nobody cares anymore

of course not how would I laugh at all the people seething otherwise

Thanks for the useless assumption, but I already figured out that when seeing in mobile the bullet points loaded text from a previous version of the article when it was ‘250’. It can be seen in the archive.

Why does the headline says ‘600 killed’ and the last bullet point bellow says ‘250 killed’?

in china it is forbidden to have 64gb of RAM

if he knows what sportswashing is then he knows he’s a piece of shit

good I guess

we should let several countries do bad things, and shouldn’t hope to fix or deter one, only all of them at once or none

uh?

In general GNOME is frustratingly good. I do find myself wanting more options for customisation every once in a while, and jump to another option. But after a week I remember that no other option Is as smooth and polished and end up right back with GNOME.

If you don’t have the newest hardware i would also recommend Mint. I believe is the most friendly to windows users plus is Ubuntu based so there’s pretty much anything available to it, and lots of support if needed. Nothing of the software you mention seems like a problem since everything is available or runs in the browser.

Remember to enable proton for all games in the steam settings so that you can run your entire library.

If you en up using a local office suite I would instead of LibreOffice recommend Onlyoffice, in my experience has better compatibility with the ms office formats. You can keep both installed, that’s what I do.

Teams I haven’t used but there’s a flatpak available I believe, so I think it shouldn’t be a problem, or you can run it in the browser.

If you have newish hardware then maybe fedora will be a better option, probably the kde spin. Everything else is the same, just with fedora is indispensable to use the rpm fusion repositories.

don’t be so hard on yourself. over time, we all just stop paying so much attention to every single internet drama, it’s tiring and we have better stuff to do.

and the point is that epic games has been really liberal with the freebies for their users ever since they set up shop as a competitor to steam. they give away a game every couple of weeks and even more on certain special seasons, including triple a games. someone following them since the begging must have a library well over a hundred games now, completely for free. despite that, they are finding very hard to find sympathy and market share among certain sectors of the gaming community, because their store is just not at the level of steam and some other questionable practices, even so far as to still be operating at a loss even now years later. you can see the giveaway games just below the current discounts at the home page or in the free games page almost at the top https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/free-games and of you use telegram there’s a channel that notify you every time there’s something new for free https://t.me/epicfreegames
