I really like Mint + Cinnamon in general, but it was getting really old earlier in the year. I got new hardware and had to use Fedora + Cinnamon for a while on two machines and grew to like it. Wish I'd tried it earlier.

It just about as polished... some things are more polished, a few things less. For example, Fedora doesn't have the nice package update GUI that Mint does. But, I typically use the CLI with aliases to update anyway, so no biggie. DNF seems to be getting better than apt, though I had to write a script to force my mirror to California instead of anywhere in North America. Firewall now happier. So I've mitigated the Fedora issues. I'm trying out things like systemd-boot and UKI.

All in all, getting new tech, kernels, Python X+1, and apps up to *two years* earlier is a big gain in my book. I need to use flatpak even less.

What the hell is wrong with the unicode around here? Those are supposed to be ascii apostrophes.

Yes, but itâ(TM)s a shame that you have to submit to anal-level surveillance to partake. Enjoy that forbidden fruit, but donâ(TM)t act like you didnâ(TM)t pay for it, in one way or the other.

Currently, Mint on a Framework is the most respectful and flexible workstation Iâ(TM)ve found.

Don't businesses still use landlines? I can't see every receptionist and hair salon having to guard common mobile devices so they don't get stolen every day.

Read barlevg's comment again. barlevg gives reasons why it *wasn't* right-wing.

My comment adds another, additional reason.

You've taken it the wrong way and run with it in the wrong direction, as have your replies.

(Yes, I probably should have been extra explicit.)

Maybe the continuous warnings about the dangers of fascism.

Dumbfuck post of the day.

The tone of the original was patterned on Star Wars. It doesnâ(TM)t really fit, given the genocide storyline, but as a kid I didn't mind.

Not really. In the old days badass chicks in movies were just that. Think Ripley in Aliens, or S.Connor in T2. Today we get paper-thin mary sues who are simply better and more virtuous than the rest of us, simply by having XX chromosomes.

The last few years they have been shoving that shit down our throats at the expense of story. Big difference.

Now, I adored Carrie as Leia over the years but lets face it, she was not a health nut.

I remember seeing her waddle around in Force Awakens and thinking she didn't look well enough to be a standing general. Same age as Alec Guinness or not I don't see her having the stamina for the role of swordfighting Jedi without a lot of training and lifestyle changes over the course of at least a year. Perhaps there was time, but we all know how the story ends.

Sure, up arrow, backspace, backspace, anykey, anykey, enter.

I forsee a lot of alert drunks in the future.

I have seen it but couldn't figure out what it does after reading the docs. Seems like a make alternative. I can't think of a better name unfortunately.
