I’ll concede the first 2 points, but I’ll argue the 3rd.
Calling modern politicians Nazis is intellectually lazy and counterproductive to achieving anything.
Ok, what moniker would you use for fascists that want to deport/kill minorities and put them into camps? Authoritarians who pander to the common people and tell them about all the socialist policies they plan to enact during the election, then immediately give up the lie and say they are just going to do authoritarian things and start rounding up minorities and persecuting sexual minorities? Fascist works, but it doesn’t really fully encompass what they’re about.
If only there was a shorthand moniker for authoritarians who run on nationalism and socialism together… Like, some kind of National Socialism. Though, these ones are also “Christians”, so they can be the National Christians. We could abbreviate it Nat-C too.

The problem presents when the average goes down.
I’m not appreciably smarter than I was a decade ago, but the average person appears to have been collecting head injuries in that time it would seem.

All those positives on there, and shit like trump is a bad person but a good president. Counter points:
1, can you really be a good president if you’re a bad person?
2, you can’t be a good president when you’re actively trying to subvert the constitution.
3, Nazis can’t be good at much other than spreading hate and pain.

Someone has to pay for it, not necessarily you. You can get all kinds of blood, sometimes even consensually!

I unironically love Armageddon and The Core. Yes, they’re both stupid and unrealistic movies, but that works in their favor about as often as against. Something about the way they play with the core concepts makes me love them.

Very easily, that’s why you never see things like “use glue to keep the cheese on your pizza” or “Marlon Brando is a human man and will not be in heat because that’s for animals”

You mean aside from attacks on trans people, immigrants, citizens who they suspect are immigrants, starting to make a list of autistic people (probably to put us in camps later), wrecking the economy, taking away entitlements to give to his rich cronies, and emboldening white supremacists and neonazis with his audible nazi dog whistles and general behavior?

Yep, and sometimes you’re just not cut out for the needs of your kid.
That’s unfortunately where I am. I love my kid, but fuck if they don’t want to make me want to run out for a pack of smokes and a gallon of milk some days (jk mostly)

What kind of “real world load” are you putting on your trimmer? Mine barely ever gets caught in hair, and when it does, the hair gets cut before it can apply any meaningful amount of force to the trimmer guard.

Be somewhat honest with the kid. Let him know you love chatting with him, but you’re over sensory (or whatever your particular issue is at the time) at the moment and you can’t give him the attention he deserves right now, but you’d live to hear about it later.
Kids are smarter and notice more than you think. Being honest and open about your issues is healthy for both of you, and helps show the kid it’s ok to not be in the mood to talk to someone and a kind/polite way to disengage.

Was that supposed to be ‘did not meet your expectations’, or was your therapist on something that day? Cuz I have no idea how not being mad at expectations being met means they’re too high.

I’ve tried bread containers (like boxes, but sealed plastic) and it was awful. I swear it went moldy faster in the thing than outside it.

I’m lawful neutral until I lose the bread clip and go chaotic neutral. Sometimes I’m lawful good the whole time, but I’ve been chaotic at the start and that’s fun!

Damn, that’s a hell of a high effort response, thank you for the info!
I’ll try another SilverBlue install, probably a bluefin variant you mentioned. It definitely sounds like I need to unlearn a lot of the info I’ve picked up over the years, including avoiding flat packs (or was that snap?). Not sure what toolbox is, but I expect I’ll have to look into that in due time.

Any reason to go vanilla Debian and not a Debian based system like Ubuntu? I’m not looking to do much advanced on my desktop other than maybe some docker/bash/Powershell development, gaming, and basic browsing.
I definitely am attracted to ‘it just works’, but I also want to make sure I’m not handcuffing myself with an os that makes it hard to play with it as well. I know those are at two ends of a spectrum, but worst case I have plenty of VMs to use to play if necessary.

Funny you mention that, Silver blue was the first thing I tried (because I’ve used fedora off and on for over a decade) and something about it just didn’t work for me, but I don’t remember what. Didn’t try the regular version tho.
In the end, I want something I can game on and dev with (which is the easy part, since VSCodium is multiplatform). If Steam doesn’t work, the install is getting torched (which is why Alma is getting the boot).

Are you able to run windows in a VM for your software?

Tried using Alma on my rig at home (since I’m using it on my servers), and I’m already going to be looking for a new distro. Went back to it after a week or so not having the energy to deal with it and apps like Firefox and steam wouldn’t launch.
Need to find a decent OS to run in its place so I can stop booting to Win10
