If you’re not part of the group, then don’t use it. I’d say maybe the only exception is “queer”. I’m fine with people using queer to describe their friends and family who are queer. Not everyone is OK with it though, but it’s pretty common. With queer, don’t use it unless the person you’re talking to self identifies as queer.

Weird. I was just having an issue with pamac and started using paru as a backup and paru is working fine last I checked.

Artists that talk like they’re showing off their latest work that they’re proud of? I don’t understand.

I guess it’s not so much RTS. It’s like making hard decisions. It’s a lot like Frostpunk in that way if you’ve played that game. There’s an element of danger and your villagers can easily die, and sometimes you have to make hard decisions or sacrifices.

It’s very good if you like city builders with RTS elements. There’s no combat in it at all, it’s just you and your villagers against the storm, hence the title. It has a lot of challenge missions and an overall story so the replayability is quite good.

It was a disc and the trees were able to be interacted with face to face so I think those are inexplicable except for “they’re magic”.

There’s a wikipedia article with some depictions actually right here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Trees_of_Valinor#Creation

Yeah, you’d have to get up high at least.

Elves in LOTR have technically infinite vision because the world used to be flat and illuminated by two glowing trees that resided in Valinor. Because the world was flat, and Elves have essentially perfect vision at any distance, they could actually see things that were on the opposite side of the world.

After Morgoth (aka Melkor, aka the evil god that Sauron worships) and Ungoliant (the mother of Shelob, the spider that nearly kills Frodo) destroyed the trees then the world was made into a globe and Elves infinite vision ability, while still useful, wasn’t quite as powerful as before.

Why would they be hostile to that idea? It allows you to run the VPN only on your browser instead of your entire system which is sometimes preferable.

It’s quite good and also I like that they largely support Linux. They have phone apps, browser extensions, desktop apps, and even CLIs. They also have downloadable configurations for OpenVPN and WireGuard if you want to go that route. They’ve also got what I assume are fairly basic features of most VPNs like kill switching, private DNS servers, etc.

And yet F:NV has the best writing of those 3 examples.

I think that’s basically the same thing as Tampermonkey. There’s also GreasyFork which hosts custom scripts.

I haven’t seen anyone mention these yet

LibRedirect - redirects common proprietary sites to a free and open source alternative Tampermonkey - allows you to find and install custom open source scripts that add functionality to websites

Writers of children’s names books are going to have a field day with the data from this study.

lol thanks!

If my partner calls me cute, yes, I like that. Anyone else, it’s very context specific. Do I know you and like you and trust you and your opinions? Then probably yes, otherwise pretty much always no.

Quantum mechanics unveils the spaghetti code on which our universe runs

You should go for a distro that matches what you want out of your system. You want stable? Find some strong LTS distro like Ubuntu. You want ULTRA STABLE? Go for an immutable distro. Do you want to use your system for gaming? Go for a distro with wide gaming support, built-in drivers with options for proprietary drivers.

It’s less about what base distro you’re using and more about what you like about that particular flavor of distro.

For example, I use my PC for gaming mostly, but also coding. I switched from Pop! (Ubuntu based) to Garuda (Arch based) and I love it because it’s really good for gaming, comes with Mangohud, Gamemode, Steam, Heroic, controller drivers, graphics drivers, etc, all optionally pre-installed. I also really like KDE apps because they’re performant and slick so I got the Plasma version.

Anyway, yeah, focus less on “this distro is Arch based” and more on what each distro can provide you as far as your personal tastes.

I think she’s your type!

Mispronounced words by British people are unacceptable though. The Brits need to be stopped!
