I installed Mint (no idea mint was old tbh) looked into Gentoo and tried the live boot USB option. 'This looks nice, no how do I install" The install option opened a web page (gentoo wiki) with several options for guides based on various permutations. All options send you in a ring without actually telling me how to install.

I went back to Mint as it does the few things I need a PC to do these days:

Some kind of office suite with spreadsheet and word processor, Steam, Netflix and Prime, Firefox

Added bonus is that it runs MegaMek natively AND i don’t need to read pages of documentation, just click install.

Think he is pissed off by it somehow. Probably because it tells the truth. My guess is he is sitting in his lair plotting how to destroy it.

I live in Norway which has become a mature EV market thanks to subsidies. The things that come out of china these days compared with the catchup from established EU/Japanese brands might also have something to do with it. China is subsidizing it’s auto industry pretty hard, and they do make decent cars.

They are banned for possible connections to a country and an organization (IDF) that have been confirmed to perform war crimes.

If you willfully target children no matter your skin colour, creed, religion or whatever arbitrary set of parameters you are a criminal.

Israelis are now discovering the price of being associated with war criminals.

Well, the fact that he was gay is perhaps a sidenote to the internal power struggle in the nazi Party, and the struggle between the SA and the SS. Hitler stayed in power by playing the people beneath him against each other, and Himmler was particularly ruthless in this regard to the very end of WW2.

Did not help Röhm that he was gay tho’

Norwegian here. Not that often I think of India tbh, but here is a short bullet point list

  • Massive overpopulation
  • Rich and dirt poor at the same time
  • Castes
  • Politically governed by nationalists
  • Rape stories
  • Massive market thats the only reason we care about India
  • Good tech industry (moon landing?)
  • Don’t go to Kashmir
  • Holi
  • Bollywood
  • “Indian” food (know that some protein in some sauce with nan and rice is not all an entire subcontinent can offer)

Last show I saw about India was that James May show on Amazon

Norwegian here. I quit reddit and joined Lemmy after the API debacle. Installed mint because of W11. (A big factor was how Steam and proton enables me to play games)

Can’t say either Lemmy or Linux has gotten any media attention in the big news sources as far as I can see.

I am the only one in my circle of friends that quit Reddit (most follow the various 40k reddits, and they have no replacement in federated options)

I installed Linux on my gfs (now wife) old laptop years ago when the beginner distros was way less user friendly. When I asked on a forum for help it was just the sound of crickets. When she made her first post starting with “my boyfriend installed Linux and I don’t understand how to…” They fucking fell out trees to answer her questions
