Let me be clear: I don't think Zek was particularly badly written. I think his plotlines and motivation and mental state were written in ways that made sense for that series. I think that Wallace straight up did a bad job in bringing him to life and the character and episodes suffered as a result.
Louise Farrenc is the one I'm aware of, and this is my favourite piece of hers. It stands shoulder to shoulder with the other works in the classical canon and is noteworthy regardless of its composer being a woman.
fuck it man, with the state of desktop linux these days, just put your files on a seperate hard drive and go full hog. Even vanilla ass debian is ok as long as you go for Gnome or KDE.
have you thought about just going for starting to use databases?
EDIT : like Django + Mariadb feels like something approachable if you are already knee deep in excel power use, which is basically programming. there's some new things to get the hang of, but once you do, it's fairly approachable. It has mostly good documentation.
IDK, some asshole recommended one of my elderly family members a chromebook, he can't adapt to it, and lost the admin password. Windows 10 shoves shovelware and random updates on his computer confusing him anyway, do you really think LMDE is going to be that much harder to understand than having to explain to him where the fuck avast antivirus came from?
No, I actually have to thank you for mentioning Hyprland bring made by a fascist because that's what I mean by fascist open source. I remembered there being some window manager or similar thing being made by a fascist and was unsure if niri was that or something adjacent.
Hence; I wish it well, unless it's part of fascist open source.
I highlighted the part about paper WM because I dislike how gnomes pseudo space age design ls work, hence the negative reaction.
But I appreciate things existing in the Linux system I don't enjoy because it makes the space more diverse and interesting and a breeding ground for new ideas.
this world cup was a gigantic fucking embarrassment.
