I just hope Trump’s senior moments don’t get us all killed. I mean, his lucid thoughts are bad enough.

And the Nazis always professed their love for Germany, yes.

It’s nothing new.

the fact that some people will happily take a beating if it means they keep some “moral high ground” they get to be smug about would be funny if it weren’t so sad, and if it weren’t what got us four more years of the orange dipshit.

ah, yes, dipshit manchild reinventing the subway. I’d almost forgotten about that.

Someone really needs to show him public transit sometime. Then again, if it keeps him busy, perhaps we should just let him. I would rather his attention be focused on making a shittier version of a subway than on trying to fuck up Europe too.

Trump is a symptom of a disease that Reagan was the harbinger of. Without Reagan and all that followed after him, you do not get a Trump presidency.

Last I checked, my generation didn’t put Reagan into office.

the thing I think a lot of “linux dorks” (and I use that term lovingly) forget about is that most people want to work on their computer, not work on their computer. The OS, for most people, should be the software equivalent of a motherboard – an invisible plinth upon which the actual things you care about sit. With a motherboard, that’s your GPU, CPU, RAM, etc. and with the OS, that’s the applications you run.

there’s nothing wrong with making fiddling with your computer a hobby, and I’ve been known to dabble myself over the years, but for me and most other normal people, that ends up being too much work for too little reward in the end. Mint getting to the point where you can daily drive it and not have to worry about it even if you’re a complete brainlet when it comes to Linux is a massive W.

How do I know if I’m prengan?

Well it is very on-brand.

uBlock Origin blocks ads, it generally doesn’t block cookie popups (and if it does, only on the initial load). This will nuke any overlay that appears during, or after the page loads. So cookie popups, newsletter subscription begging, all that shit goes away, even the ones that wait until you start scrolling.

If only their site included such answers on the very page I linked… Alas, we’ll never know.

allow me to introduce you to PopUpOFF, for popups like this on websites. It’s very effective at sending shit like this to the shadow realm.

won’t be able to help on a third party app though, but if popups like this annoy you like they annoy me, figured you’d be interested. Could probably work on their mobile site.

it could be just the font, but I’m pretty sure that says H20, not H2O.

The former sounds fantastically explosive.

Precisely. Full Speed Swarm with some damage mods made the game so much better. Guns felt like guns but ho boy you were not at a loss of things to kill and it still was not easy

Beatings will continue until morale improves.

honestly I modded the fuck out of my Payday 2 because I didn’t like how tanky enemies were on higher difficulties compared to how fragile the player is. I’m fine with being fragile (if anything I prefer it because it’s realistic), but if I shoot someone in the face with a 12 gauge, I expect their face to not exist anymore, just like mine – whereas on anything higher than death wish, without modding, you might as well be throwing pocket sand at them while they down you with maybe 1 or 2 shots.

Fortunately, the entire game being a house of cards built on LUA makes modding it super easy. Even works online, whether you’re the host or not, though some effects from mods will only work if you’re the host.

Four years.

Four goddamn years I had to wake up every day and pay attention to what asinine shit the President of the United States tweeted.

Because, unfortunately, that utter cretin had the nuclear button.

And now we have to endure another four years of the same.

Shit, for all the bad things you can say about Biden, you can at least say that whenever you heard a story start with “Today, the president said…” in the news, you weren’t immediately going “ah fuck here we go”. Four years I dealt with that kind of reflexive dread.

God, I wish I could just slip into a coma until 2029.

Right? I’ve been running Mint the past year, can count the amount of times I had to boot into windows on my fingers, and having to use the terminal to do things is like an occasional, once every couple months thing, usually to solve a problem I’ve created for myself.

I remember trying Linux in the early 2010s. When it looked like a modern OS, but behaved like it always had up to that point. That was misery.

also anyone who complains about the terminal in Linux is clearly not very computer competent in Windows, as I recall frequently using Command Prompt and PowerShell to get shit done. At least, they’re not doing anything remotely complex if they’ve never encountered or had to use either.

He’s either using a 15 year old copy of Ubuntu, or he dove straight into the deep end with Arch like a dumbass and nobody told him about the wiki.
