Actually I think I get what you’re saying now and I think you have a point. I am not sure the two can be directly compared that way, though. There are different reasons for why people think each is bad once they hear the name and I don’t think the meme is actually saying that this is an argument for or against anything. Just a funny observation.

This is all just semantics and how the word ‘opposite’ can be applied in different ways. I wouldn’t spend too much time on this.

Power users probably just use hotkeys and type, Gnome is attractive and stays out of your way. That said - I like Plasma, too. That’s the fun of Linux, it’s so customisable to each person’s needs.

Yeah, I did something for work where I had to study up about it and instead of being angry it’s just kind of a fun fact. I don’t actually mind what people say, I think everyone understands what you mean regardless.

I am the guy in the middle, except I’m telling people it’s octopuses.

I am glad this went in this direction. I kinda like a lot of the new slang, and am also chill with being an old loser using them incorrectly, it’s part of the evolution of language and I’m glad to play my part.

I’ve been using it for a while and agree. At least I know how they’re making money off of me.

booo

The comments are funny but if you read the article he just did it for the bit. Apparently he changed quite a bit over that time and regretted being an angry forum nerd, so he thought it would be funny to do one last post and abandon the account.

The funniest part of this is that it didn’t have the one song I expected: https://youtu.be/ZvSgLHWR16o?si=_bKjOUbXmsuLZi0w

😔💦🦅🥰🥳

I really like the tumbleweed method, seems like the best compromise between arch and debian style updates.

I forgot that only people you have agreements with can sue you. This is why Boeing hasn’t been sued once recently for their own criminal negligence.

You do realise your second sentence completely contradicts your first?

I’m not sure if there are better ways to do this but I think any effective protest has to cause some disruption otherwise it’s too easily ignored.

I’m sure most people agree governments could be doing a lot more to fight climate change, so the problem isn’t the protestors, it’s the government creating a situation where it becomes necessary. It shouldn’t be too hard to understand why jailing these people is bad.

Unfortunately a lot of people seem to hate these kinds of protest and are probably happy they’re being locked up.

If it was Arch you’d update once every 15 minutes whether anything’s broken or not.

They can have all the clauses they like but pulling something like this off requires a certain amount of gross negligence that they can almost certainly be held liable for.

My company used to use something else but after getting hacked switched to crowdstrike and now this. Hilarious clownery going on. Fingers crossed I’ll be working from home for a few days before anything is fixed.

TIL, thanks for the informative comment!
