  • Right? Like, the flesh of many fruits is called exactly that and has been, basically, forever.

    The meat of the problem is that we are allowing industries, now, to define our language to maximize their profits.

    The very first person to try to take advantage over others should have been eaten by the rest of the group, immediately.

  • "Actually ...

    I still don't get why Mint with its legacy Cinnamon desktop is recommended to new Linux users."

    Now, we're not fighting, but I need you to see what you did. This right here is just a milder version of what I had to sort through just to get started. I started using Mint before I came to Lemmy, and Reddit's Linux subs are just as helpful, forgiving and accepting as the community here. Long time users are snarky, snobby and honestly not very helpful. It's not just Arch users. It was like Muscle Beach, but digital. Just flexing, no help at all. Then a user suggested that Mint would be a painless transition and they were right. It worked on the first install and within an hour I had Thunderbird opening my email, Blender set back up just like I had it on my poor dead windows 10 desktop, had my slicer. I haven't argued with anything. I've never opened the terminal. That's why Noobs are often pointed to Mint. And I won't leave it without a mighty good reason. My computer gets used for some of my hobbies, but computers quit being a hobby for me nearly 30 years ago.

  • I ain't mad. You came back with real information. I was just snarking and hyperbolizing about what we have coming to us for letting these men gain control.

  • Someone is going to make so much money selling iron lungs when they roll out polio 2.0 in a couple of years.

    Ooh, maybe we can have a run of drug resistant typhoid or whooping cough while we're at it.

    Have we ever had a good ebola outbreak in the US?

  • In the US holidays are for capitalism selling its products. Often it is candy, liquor, cut flowers, or some combination, oh and decorations, cards, themed clothing...

    Let it sink in that the US love to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Specifically, white, conservative voting Americans love to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, a day that they will tell you is the Mexican 4th of July, as they get piss drunk on Corona light.

    Or how we treat St. Paddy's here...

  • Man, your attitude is why Linux is still so fringe. That purity test shit is a real turn off.

    For a casual user like myself, all that matters is my computer boots, is navigable and runs programs that do what I need. Mint/Cinnamon does that. It does it with no fuss. And every time some great FOSS warrior comes along to tell me it's not Linux enough I like it even more. I'm not interested in distro hopping, at all. To be really honest, I'm not interested in my computer. I just use it.
