Right? I’ve known some Becky’s that were alright but I have also met some real Becky’s.

That’s not an unfair portrayal in the southern US.

No, you see the joke is that teachers aren’t people.

It’s a circle. One color.

This I can get behind.

Eh, I keep a Windows 10 machine because Linux won’t run Reason even in wine. Everything else gets done on my laptop running Mint. Adobe does things that aren’t easily replaced. No point in shaming folks for the tools they use.

I like Mint so far after about 2 months. Ubuntu was seriously lacking.

Interesting. I can imagine this crowd making a big deal of it. The biggest hurdle for many of us to switch is the user base we have to turn to for help. There’s a lot of dissenting opinions and gatekeeping to muddle through. I’m liking Mint so far though. Thank you for the straightforward answer.

Noob here. What do you mean Linux isn’t the OS?

I hate forgetfulness headaches

Who rides a motorcycle while wearing a sword. Kinda badass

So as someone who tried Ubuntu first because it seemed like the easiest place to start, don’t. First off, I never could get Ardour to run right on it. Try Linux Mint. I switched this weekend and everything seems to work better and there appears to be a lot more available software when you aren’t stuck with Snaps.

Puppy?

Stupid sexy Tetris.

Doing something because you want to is vastly different from expecting everything to be free.

Whenever I see FOSS offered as a solution I have to wonder if that person is paying for their own food, shelter, transportation and what have you, or if they are still living with their parents and not making any attempt to support themselves.

Nothing is free. There is a cost incurred at some point. The minimum cost is time, a finite commodity for all living beings, and effort, but other things require materials, which cost someone some time and effort to find, extract, or otherwise produce.

I certainly don’t say any of this in defense of capitalism, but “free” is a nonsense concept in human life. It simply doesn’t exist.

This isn’t even an uncle tier joke.

You know the rules and so do I.

They really need like 20, but to get colleges to host the courses needed you have to be able to fill the classrooms. Release bullshit articles like this and a bunch of kids hoping they might have a future with a roof on it sign up for the new thing being offered. It’s really insidious.
