  • It doesn’t have to be this way. My grandparents and extended family were war refugees and on the receiving side of bombings. Fortunately they and their children made it, but they lost everything else – their homes, belongings, friends, neighbors, possibly relatives. Took them maybe 25 years of group effort to emigrate, resettle, and generally rebuild to a modest life. To my best knowledge they have never bombed anyone or participated in other violence.

    So yeah, be like them. Get the fuck out of danger, take care of each other, and don’t perpetuate the cycle.



  • What’s better? KDE? Or GNOME?

    Cinnamon.

    Nah just kidding. What happens is that you use enough different OSes and DEs for enough time and you start to see through the matrix. You realize they’re all just visual wrappers for the underlying systems that do the real work, and the DEs don’t really matter. All the major ones are good enough. And when they don’t work, that’s when you use command line. Then eventually, after doing that enough times, you say “fuck it all, get this GUI out of my way” and just start using CLI for everything.
