  • Petition to ban the term 'eye-popping' from all headlines not directly about the popping of eyes:

  • Every. Single. Time.

  • The flotation device is also politics.

  • Exactly why libertarians deserve less respect than the fascists they enable.

  • I like that explanation.

  • The next episode, Yesteryear, had Spock going back in time to save himself as a child, which is apparently the only reason he's alive at all (🙄) and I'm just like 'Where's Michael?'

  • Fantastic, I'm watching through them for the first time as an adult. Can't wait! I was planning on watching the entire franchise in release order, but season 3 of TOS was a challenge, and knowing my reward at the end of it was TAS did not help. Yesteryear was fairly good, as I've come to expect from Fontana, but even the premise that Spock is only alive because he went through the guardian and saved himself as a child MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE. it's too paradoxical even for Trek. Anyway can't wait to see Kirk and crew traumatize the rest of the galaxy.

  • "Anyway it made me hate all women"

  • Which devices, if I may ask? I'm curious under which circumstances I should definitely not recommend it.

  • Yes. I've been switching non-tech people to Linux for 17 years. Ubuntu used to be the go to, but it has a steep learning curve for the average user, sucks, and has gotten consistently worse. Everyone eats their shit over Mint, and Cinnamon is nice, but I'd still field a lot of complaints. Pop! OS is awesome, but still only 90% of the way there (and also people hate the name).Bazzite is feature complete, requires zero tinkering on their end or mine, and 'just works' the way people expect a modern desktop OS to. I've converted just under a dozen people and several of my personal machines and haven't had an issue yet. So yes, I would recommend a young, gaming focused distribution to a non-tech person. Isn't Steam OS also young and gaming focused? And yet it's arguable that most non-tech people start their Linux journey there. bazzite is just an improvement on Steam OS. So yeah, I like it. I don't understand all the ire in this thread for my answer to the question. Everyone has their opinion, I have field research.

  • People keep saying this but I've not had a single solitary issue getting Bazzite working on a myriad of older and newer devices.

  • I didn't realize OP's question was 'What desktop operating system would you recommend to Scott's dad?' I guess I need new glasses.

  • What you're missing is that the question was what would you recommend to the average user.

  • Bazzite. Fedora + drivers + immutable + gaming works out of the box.

  • When you finally get some alone time with your girl and a third wheel comes rolling up.

  • Archive.org, Anna's archive, Jan 6 footage, Epstein files, there's plenty to back up.

  • Pike: Am I and my hair a joke to you?

  • Makes sense, thanks.
