Yup, our shit-stain conservative govt rolled back one of the most popular policies in decades against the public desire, with legislation practically copied n pasted from tobacco industry lobbyists

“No, I just work here”

Sawing

“Don’t cut that, I need that to speak!”

Pauses… Saws faster

nom-nom-nom “I’m ruined!”

I hate to say it but it’s working. First the mass-debater got “2A raptured,” this gave them the push-start they needed, now the administration is using this clown to dump the clutch and crank the starter.

Soon, the engine will fire into life again and the Epstein files will be a distant memory in the rear view mirror.

Well, I thought it was a valid argument! :)

But in being tight, they keep everything in place and organized… Tidy!

Killswitch Engage’s Atonement album has some excellent tracks with RATM-esque lyrics incl Crownsless King

So far, so good but I haven’t really thought about it since. It may not suit a purist, hardcore or someone who tweaks their system endlessly but for someone like me, I don’t want to spend me free time fiddling, breaking, then fixing my home gear.

Until Win10, I never liked to “upgrade” any OS, preferring a clean slate approach and from what I understand, that’s what I’ll get here. A clean new OS with each upgrade that eliminates any gradual degradation due to a build up of clutter and abandoned packages. All while the flat packs and my data/config reside safely in the use partition (anyone, let me know if I’ve got this wrong!)

Thanks! I’m genuinely encouraged by learning Linux. That’s why I’ve been documenting things here, to share with those like me who have tried before or hesitant to make the jump.

Agree - software is the greatest blocker these days. My recent software restriction was simply a tool I was only using for study.

I was still skeptical that it would be so easy as I’ve been burnt before by Linux on YouTube or articles that exclaim just how easy it is but I usually run into at least a couple of major issues that become a pain to overcome. Not so this time! Every PC I’ve cut over during this process has been painless.

Literally the only issue I’ve had to date was my monitor not waking from sleep - a minor fault that was fixed by selecting any colour profile that wasn’t the default.

As long as you are domain joined, group policy will get rid of all that BS (I think that’s the requirement, I’ve been out of ops for a couple of years now and the memories are fading fast!). These days, that’s the only way to make Win11 somewhat decent.

Definitely no hate for Arch, just me being a smart arse ;)

Cream buns from Van Wilder

Yes!! This and Fatal Racing was my entire early teens!

Well, if that’s how it works, every country now needs to renames the US to something else on their maps. Whoever has the best name wins something - like, the Olympics or free membership to the UN.

Suggestions now open, I’ll start: “Little Girls Blouse”

Marley and Me

Yes! DH but almost anything played straight as a change would be brilliant!
