  • Thank you for sharing, that was an excellent video.

    Also appreciate the edit; it’s amazing how much of a difference those little words make.

    Biggest objection to that angle for me is “well I never eat microwave popcorn” makes it too easy to dismiss the problem.

    I’d still bet that “groundwater contamination” (or “drinking water contamination” from manufacturing is the single largest source for almost anyone, but it looks like microwave popcorn is shockingly high when it comes to food and food packaging.

    you subscribe to a belief wholeheartedly, even a crazy one, to the point where youd rather die than question it.

    That’s what I said too, which is to say that the point is not the killing but the unquestioning nature of it.

    It’d be so much better if that authoritarian fifth would drink the flavor-aid in the sense of killing themselves.





  • I’m with you on the “FOSS office alternatives are shit”, but unfortunately MS office is also shit. Google is the closest I have found to a good office suite but even that is becoming a bit chaotic and awkward. LyX is a promising word processor but also pretty awkward to use in its own way. I’ve got nothing, there.

    As far as gaming, this sound less kind than intended but you deserve any shit you get for saying Linux gaming is bad these days. Apart from a few AAA games with anti-cheat where the devs just don’t want to, basically every game just works without any extra effort. Even obscure indie games. I can’t think of the last game I wanted to play that didn’t run on Linux, and often it is better under proton than Windows or native.
