Not meaning to attack here but there's an entire page o wikipedia talking about Denmark in World War 2.

They basically tried to not take sides/stay neutral and ended up being invaded by Germany.

Very good read, thank you for sharing!

Firefox does not fully support the editor. Please use a chromimum-based web browser such as Chrome, Brave or Edge.

Taken from introduction

Then I joined their discord to see if people say it is fine playing on Firefox and found the developer saying the following:

I don't understand people who use firefox

I think I will pass this one

Damn, Linus really went out of his way to say:

How about you accept the fact that maybe the problem is you. You think you know better. But the current process works. It has problems, but problems are a fact of life. There is no perfect. However, I will say that the social media brigading just makes me not want to have anything at all to do with your approach. Because if we have issues in the kernel development model, then social media sure as hell isn't the solution. The same way it sure as hell wasn't the solution to politics. Technical patches and discussions matter. Social media brigading - no than\k you.

Someone linked the thread from Phoronix forum and the comments are so awful. Imagine having to deal with people like this.

One of them reads:

We need Microsoft people like we need fleas. Why can't they work for projects we don't like, like GNOME?

It is funny because Ts'o works at Google, lol.

Never did anyone in this steam group go out of their way to harass anyone involved with the company.

Never was it "a bunch of sexist and racist white people being upset about diversity in videogames".

Very bold statements in favour of people that I know myself are extremely "anti diversity / anti woke". Do you even know who the creator of the Steam group is? Guy is known for being the scum of the Brazilian WoW community.

OP, you need to understand that you are leaving your confort zone and things might not work and that's okay. You can have plenty of issues with Windows as well but I think we're just trained to ignore them or assume it not the OS's fault.

I've had this sleep issue once with Arch Limux and I think that's related with a lack of swap memory. Did you configure it?

Regarding issues with programs that you use like Slack etc, If it takes too long, there might have something wrong. I never used Mint so I have no idea on what Pop Store is but I would go away to search for the packages on their official websites.

If you don't have the patience to learn a new OS just don't do it. You're not obligated to do so, you're not inferior because of it and you are free to choose what is better for you. I do feel better using Linux these days because I am honestly very tired on MS making decisions on what's best and I enjoy fixing issues by myself.

I think you wording might offend a lot of people here because Linux and open source is almost a lifestyle for a lot of people, so if you need help staying it might be more productive to calm down and elaborate on your isssues in the future.

This is a very good example of a reply that doesn't help at all. Sorry.

You aren't aware of eveyones contexts so assuming everyone can simply ditch communication apps is very narrow minded. Many people have family members that aren't well versed in tech and in many situations calling isn't an option. My 70 years old mom for example would probably find easier to write me a letter and send it through mail than to learn how to use a new app (she can't call since we live in different countries). Whenever they even change the app layout is a pain.

I deeply hate Whatsapp with all my might but there are sacrifices that need to be done for people you care about.

I think if you clean your own toilet you'll never pee standing at home. It splashes everywhere, it's so nasty.

As someone born without a penis it was always annoying to share bathrooms with people that pee standing/leave the lid up.

I recommend watching this video.

There's no such thing as unskilled labor. Labor is labor, specially if someone else has to do it even if you don't want to.

You all hate discs until you have a library that you can rent games for free close to you. Or you want to sell a game you already played to buy something else. I don't care of what some boss from GameStop says because at the end of the day, they run a business out of it, but complaining about physical media is something I don't understand someone would do as a consumer. Did we really learn nothing from companies simply shutting down online stores when they want?

I can't put into words how much disgust I feel for Fandom wikis. Apparently there is an alternative front-end for it, but I still need to try it out.
