My preferred fictional outcome is Putin orders a full launch, but almost all the missiles just do a small fart in their tubes as no maintenance was done, and the ones that launch end up reaching escape velocity and disappearing because the people in charge of the silos had long since sold the payloads for yacht money...

Oh so is this 22 like the rolling release Vs that? I should just look it up but I made both these comments on the toilet and hate web browsing on mobile 😄

Did I blink and miss something... Mint actually looks pretty modern compared to how I remember the release notes, kernel 6.8... I've never bothered with it as it just seemed like a distro to run on old hardware if you don't mind your core being 2 years out of date, where Debian v.xx with kde just made more sense

Interesting..

I think specifically with sarcasm it's an American issue. It's natural to us EU people, we can usually just detect it by instinct.

I've dealt with US people who just fail to detect it both on the phone and face to face. So no chance with text...

Yeah I'll give it a go on my machine soon. I only run win in a VM with a gfx card passed through these days anyway just to use some software I have no option for, so didn't really give it too much thought as there is no data on that system worth stealing anyway. But good to hear its oss.

I've steered away from these as a hangover of trust issues back from the old XP 'lite' ISO days. However since Microsoft is clearly the main source of malware on windows these days I think its time to let that go..

If you kept it long enough... The last update made it unusably slow, was the only phone I ever destroyed and sent for recycling as there was no way I could sell that thing to someone.

Also last Samsung phone I ever bought for that reason. Actually could be the last Samsung anything I nought come to think of it

Lol was pretty much my first thought.

Some people thought the same about Amazon, providing them a huge marketplace to sell on... Then Amazon cloned the products which sold well and undercut to force those sellers out of business before hiking the prices back up again.

I often took the same approach back when buying a game was a financial consideration. But even though now 4/5 times I already know hat I'm buying and just pay, there are still the 1/5 times I'll pirate first as I'm really on the fence. Due to this I have a few games I ended up completing on pirate, but bought the game (and DLC if relevant) with 0 hours in my library because good work deserves recognition.

Otherwise we risk losing those good developers to other careers or into the AAA meat grinder.

For clarity I'm talking Indy titties here, I doubt I average much above 0.5/year AAA purchases anymore

Edit: actually I'll go one step further. If I pirate your game and hate it, then its delete and forget. If I buy your game and hate it that's a potential negative review, maybe even though me and that title we just a bad fit. This is why demos need to become ubiquitous again

I would have interpreted that as 'prolapse'

Good thing no one is expecting me to provide translations
