The book of Daniel lays out what the anti-christ will do and how he will behave. It describes Trump perfectly.

Republicans have to be continually humiliated in front of the nation. That is the only thing that will work, and that is all that they will listen to (other than outright brutality). Utter and complete humiliation every day.

Dems as a party won’t do it because they a) fear losing imaginary “centrist” voters, and b) don’t actually want to be in power anyway, since they can fundraise more when they are in the opposition.

Orion does it now too.

They live mostly on gels and polymers I think.

Sounds like you’re complaining about the free market. People don’t like something that was unearthed about someone, so they don’t support them.

Hasn’t been my experience

IATSE isn’t part of the strike. Most likely because AMPTP would find a way to make American Gladiators with non-union labor, which would be a body blow to the union.

If you’re IATSE, you’re working right now, because the union isn’t on strike.

Edit: upon re-re-re-reading your comment, I now think you’re saying that the crew got fucked over, which I wholeheartedly agree with.

Hopefully Debian or LMDE. Canonical is becoming a mini-Microsoft.

…and head to bed for me.

How would that prevent you from being a conservative?

Sounds like such a nice lady.

Democrats protest, Republicans vote. One of the primary lessons of high school AP Government 25 years ago.

Red states are a luxury we can’t afford anymore. They need to pull themselves up by their freedom bootstraps and start turning a profit, or the spigot turns off.

Which is why he became Secretary of Energy under Trump. Also I think he was kicked off Dancing with the Stars in one of the early rounds. Certainly makes him qualified to occupy the same chair as Steven Chu.

Wealth tax. 0.1%. The rich will see it as adding a .1 onto all of their investment expense ratios, and I don’t give a shit.

I know Ubuntu has had that for a while, which means that others probably have as well.

Wasn’t the German government running SuSE?

I don’t know… Debian 12 or latest Fedora (ugh) are pretty darn idiot proof. CLI doesn’t really enter into the picture on those if you don’t want it to. And, your computer won’t have to be tossed out for another 10 years.

I’m personally just getting back into Linux after a 20-year hiatus, and configuring/compiling Gentoo from the ground up has definitely given me a different perspective on computers.

In general, almost all Linux distros stem from 3 primary distributions: Debian, Arch and Fedora. (The outliers would be things like Void, Gentoo and Slackware.) All of these other distros that “just work” are, for the most part, skins of those primary 3 with different apps pre-installed.

Kali? It’s Debian. Ubuntu? It’s Debian. Mint? It’s either Ubuntu (which itself is Debian) or now Linux Mint Debian Edition. The “look and feel” of a distro has nothing inherently to do with that distro.

What they all have in common is that the eye-candy Desktop Environment is there to provide a “friendlier” interface than a CLI - but there is nothing a DE can do that the native terminal can’t.

I’ve also found it’s just faster/easier to install things via terminal than browse through an artificial “app store.”

Maybe I’m moving away from the idea of a desktop environment in general, in favor of a Window Manager that just handles putting programs in floating windows in a black space.
