EndeavourOS is very close to being vanilla arch with sane defaults. I run it on multiple machines and it’s rock solid.

The question you have to ask yourself, though, is this: Do I want to scold white people for their privilege, or do I want to get them on my side to fix it? In my experience, rubbing their noses in it is going to set people’s minds against you.

I think you are making the same mistake they do. You can’t very well get someone to help fix a problem if you don’t let them know the problem exists. Just discussing or explaining white privilege isn’t the same as scolding someone about it. The folks who take it that way are going to take it that way no matter what terms we use, because they don’t want to admit it exists.

The only way the dems could fuck this up is if they run on centrist bullshit chasing republican votes, again.

I wish I had any confidence that they learned their lesson after trying that with Kamala. However, I have none.

I’m partial to this version:

Not only do I miss nothing from Windows, but also the decisions MS has made each and every year since I dumped them has only increased my conviction that I made the right move in doing so. Not one time have I read a MS/Windows headline and felt I was somehow missing out on anything I would ever want to be a part of.

Yep somehow I did. I knew it had to be something like that.

I’d live the rest of my life with just a little more spring in my step knowing death wasn’t the end.

I was hoping it was something like that. I must have just missed it somehow.

I’ve never been in one, but family brought home some of their “beaver nuggets” and I really couldn’t believe how disgustingly delicious they were. Basically they are big crunchy sugary things that taste a lot like plain Capn’ Crunch, but they go down by the handful way to easily.

A friend told me if you want to be really decadent you can eat them in a bowl with some milk like breakfast cereal.

They also brought me some of the fudge, but I was less impressed with that.

I’m kind of amazed they admitted this. Under any other president I’d have been slightly surprised they admitted it, but with Trump lackeys in charge of seemingly everything at the federal level I’m outright stunned that they admitted it.

Good points, especially this one:

To me, the fact that it happened nowhere near Iran is the bigger deal. It means that parts of the world that aren’t aligned with either side in the war now have to wonder what might explode in their own territory.

I skipped right over that but it’s part of it for sure.

I just learned that five minutes ago, and it really does make it even worse.

It feels different in a few ways to me. One, it feels much more personal and “fuck you in particular.” It’s one thing to lob missiles at a base and fuck whoever happens to be there, but you KNOW there’s a real possibility that you kill every mother effer on that ship if you hit it with a torpedo.

I’m not articulating it very well, but it’s just got a different sort of cruelty that something like shelling an airbase just lacks for me.

This sinking seems like a really big deal to me, but I don’t feel like it’s been treated that way. Everyone seems to react like it’s just another example of Trump being shitty, and it is, but also, we sank another country’s warship with a torpedo. That seems pretty momentous no matter what country it was.

What’s the news about neofetch?

So bleak and so accurate at the same time.
