If the software you need to use isn’t very demanding, you can run windows in a virtual machine (VM) inside of Linux – the exception is games that have kernel-level anti-cheat, those will probably never work on Linux in any way, and you’ll have to dual boot to run them. Most other games will run easily if you just install them with Steam, but I’ve come across a few that I use a VM for.

What software and games do you need to run? I might be able to help.

Also, the distro you should go for is called Linux Mint.

Mint has the perfect balance of stability, support and up-to-date-ness for beginners - and honestly for a lot of experienced users as well.

I hadn’t heard of the guy, so I searched him up… funny how these guys always look like Bond villains

If the approach is just “look for evil people and then destroy them”, or “if politicians piss the people off, and they’ll come for their head”, it’s likely to produce more evil through the fear that it creates. A good political system is predictable – politicians should know that if they do evil (clearly defined in law), it will become public, and it will have consequences (again, clearly defined in law). This should also apply to all powerful people, not just politicians.

At the end of the day, the goal is to control and counteract certain ambitions, not to create fear.

Fear leads people to do stupid evil shit

yeah, I switched to Linux on my personal computers once I noticed ads in the start menu, my work computer has win11, though

Yeah, the edition I read had a preface that seemed specifically written to prevent those kinds of interpretations. I wonder if it was written by a female relative of Nabokov’s.

It’s well written, but maybe too subtle

dude, Notepad even has Copilot now

Pretty sure no type setter or graphic designer would use Word for anything else than making Word templates.

I managed to get a few chapters into “Lolita” before I decided to put it down. It’s well written, but so very creepy. This text is like it’s written by the main character – maybe even a more honest version of him.

I don’t know that they want to, but as economic inequality increases it will happen. Without a middle class, there’s not much of a market for high-end bleeding edge gaming PCs

the plausible deniability is getting thinner and thinner - this time it was that the whole video was jungle themed, so obviously it had nothing to do with racism!
