I stand by my statement :)
A day well spent
Should be reference to Spartacus’ rebelion? When defeated, the rebeling slaves were asked to point out Spartacus to which everyome of them said “I’m Spartacus”.
Or so the story goes.
Right?! Looking cool and being effective are two different things. I know what they went for but really poorly worded that one.
In the grand scheme of things the pyramids were built relatively recently, but I’d still consider it quite long ago
I actually prefer to eat spaghetti this way instead of the sauce
This has to be some kind of record, right?
They don’t relly know better. Windows is familiar, Linux sounds too complicated and techy. Hell, I was thinking the same and I’m reasonably tech savvy. It’s infinitely more friendly than I’d ever expect.
People are afraid of change and unknown. Though ironically Linux might actually be closer to the original Windows experience that Win11 is (speaking from my limited experience with Mint)
You are correct, but on the other hand it doesn’t hurt to make the average person aware of alternatives.
Can be especially effective when the person buys a new PC and needs to do all the stuff you mention anyway. Yes, it is still a new OS, but honestly, it’s not that different - especially if the person remembers older Windows versions, it might just feel like going to familiar places (I know this is something my wife would really apreciate as she hates the constant changes of how things look). Obviously depends on distro, only have experience with Mint.
I’m saying this from a position of a resonably tech savvy, but not your average tech nerd (at least knowledge wise lol). Sure there are differences under hood but I don’t think the average user would really notice them that much.
I was very surprised how smooth it actually is as well. I was not clear how Wine works for nom-Steam games but once I learned about Heroic launcher and Lutris it was pretty much smooth sailing so far.
I thought I will use Linux every now and then, instead I never booted Windows ever since installing Mint.
Serious question - since when do pills have taste?
Incoming calls I can handle. But me calling somewhere? Hell naw!
If I get woken up by my dogs, 99% of the time its them barking at a random thing. So would wake me up wherever they are in the room.
I sometimes barely fit in the bed with them, but I like them there.
My grandpa didn’t mind the bites. He would chill in the garden with 5 or more of the fuckers on him and let them have at it, conciously.
They need to make it nice first, to reel people in. Once they are in and invested, that’s when ads start.
I watched parts of a stream of CoghCarnage (hope I spelled it right?), probably of the same demo. Looked pretty good!
Weird calling out EQ which os still going and even getting expacs afaik
Axe is cooler than hammer as well.
