I don’t think regular Arch is the best for new Linux users at all but their are a few Arch based distros with graphical installers.

I’d you are trfh savvy, the Arch install process should be ok though.

Of the 2 you suggested, u would go with Kubuntu. KDE is a very popular desktop environment and Ubuntu is solid. I’ve moved distros quite a bit but always go back to Ubuntu-based. I’ve been on Mint for the last 6 or so years.

Looks like Z-library is also up: https://open-slum.org/

This is why I use pnpm instead.

Switch statements is the next lesson in this bootcamp.

I make websites. Depending on what you are after I might be able to help too.

Only against the ruling class.

I do all my pirating with Transmission as my torrent client, so both?

A long time ago I pirated because I was poor and wanted to play Skyrim and stuff. I’d download movies occasionally too but streaming services came along and I mostly didn’t need to pirate anymore. Then the streaming industry boomed and the enshitification started. I got real sick, real fast with not being able to fined common movies that were either exclusive to a service I didn’t have or was behind a paywall of some other sorts.

So, I donned the hat again, beefed up security wit ha VPN, got a 6 TB hard drive, set up both Jellyfin and Plex(I need my IP addy to log into Jellyfin and kids and partner don’t know how to retrieve that so Plex is the backup.) and went back to the high seas. I pay substantially less to watch almost anything I want, than to trudge through 7 different streaming apps trying to find that one movie or show. It helps when you realize pirating against streaming apps only hurts those companies and not the creators themselves(unless you take all of the services originals into account, which is a cache 22 since anything that would catch my eye got cancelled after 2 seasons).

The propaganda treats must flow.

I don’t know what the fuck that means but if the Dems actually wanted to win, they’d run an actual candidate instead of a girlboss genocider cop.

This reads like you are at the “scratch a lib” phase.

It’s time to start working on dual power structures in your respective city.

Honestly I was going off the assumption that China had to recognize the Cuban blockade in order to trade with the US. I’m probably not as informed on that as I could be.

The funniest outcome for this would be that China just stops trading with the US altogether and opens up trade with DPRK and Cuba.

That would be so funny.

Now that I think of it, I wonder if the Astro team has AI shit built into their VSCode plugin.

I like DeepSeek more but it’s responses for AstroJS are actually worse from what I’ve seen. I am starting to think I single-handedly trained ChatGPT on Astro at this point lol.

My favorite thing about ChatGPT is telling it consistently I’m writing stuff in AstroJS and not ReactJS.

So, uh where’s this link for a junior position starting out at $145k? Asking for a friend…

If the US doesn’t fuck up it’s own demise and just dies peacefully, I can see that being the case.

But I think China would use their new powers to help lift other countries up instead of continuing to use the global south as a giant slave plantation like the US is doing.
