I am kind, and try to do no harm. I bicycle daily, and tinker on all kinds of projects. INFP
File this under “shooting yourself in the foot”.
I never particularly cared for the Unity desktop. The first few times I tried it, there were hardware incompatibilities, slow performance, and crashing. Gnome3 is a complicated mess. I prefer to keep it simple. XFCE is fine for me.
I would like to see more concrete actions limiting corporate price-gouging, and not just words. Corporations aren’t going to do anything just because the president says “stop doing it”.
Trump blatantly incites his followers into violence, and directs them toward specific targets. That is outside of the legal bounds of “freedom of speech”.
Maybe it’s because everyone is struggling with high costs of housing, food, and healthcare, among other things, while wages have remained flat and stagnant for decades.
I must admit, I don’t get why Biden would go so wholeheartedly pro Israel here. I get that the US has been allies with Israel for decades, and we would probably continue that. But his support goes further, and gets out of balance in terms of public perception of Israel (which does have broad public support), and a clear genocide of Palestinians in Gaza which also has broad public recognition. He probably would have been better to try to thread the needle between the two.
What could possibly go wrong?
I keep trying other distros, and then coming back to Debian unstable XFCE. Linux Mint Debian Edition is ok. At work I did lots of Enterprise Redhat, but I’m glad I don’t have to use it after I retired.
I am very skeptical of anything coming out of the information war related to this conflict.
I understand Jill Stein’s connections to Russia are because of RT (Russia Today), who was publishing lots of US progressive content back in 2016, at a time when no US media would touch any of it. Yea, it sucks that we had to have Russia of all places publish progressive content, such as Pro Bernie Sanders, StandingRock protests, and Green Party positions to get any visability AT ALL. So Stein was at a table with other people who were getting their issues published by RT, and Putin joined in. Now I wouldn’t get anywhere near any RT content.
