I’m kinda trying to get back to how it was in the past a bit.
Realize that life happens outside of the internet, and I don’t need to read a stream of news from the other end of the world that I can’t do anything about and don’t affect me yet.
There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.

It would be enough to prove I have a working perpetuum mobile and become rich.
Phone battery. Then I could modify the phone to let it power other devices and have unlimited electricity.
With a full tank of petrol, I’d create pollution if I tried that.
I like sig figs and I cannot lie
Tesla probably skipped half that, the die stamp machine is from a dumpster in Detroit, and employees are expected to shit at a Starbucks during their break.
WTF can you link this?
There’s no way in hell 2007 was 18 years ago.
Then provide an “other” option with a text box instead.
Make entering some text mandatory if you click it.
No one gravitates toward that.
Besides, a “none” option can just be discarded when you analyze the data.
If all your boxes are social media sites, you have no idea which ones are poisoned by bad data, and by how much.

Debian’s build still depends on an xserver.
Or if you’re ambitious, you practice in front of the busiest footpath and get all of the embarrassment of failing in front of an audience out of the way early.
So nothing can phase you later when you perform.
Then either they changed that, or I didn’t understand it right, while I was using it.
Probably the latter.
That being said, my other frustration was a lack of easily discoverable in-depth documentation.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if I was just too dumb to find that, too.
Would it be weird if you were in a park and a grown up man was there juggling?
No. It would be depressing if I was in a park and no one was there juggling, or trying to learn to ride a unicycle, or failing to slackline, or setting up a tent for the first time before going on an adventure, or doing yoga, or practicing artistic moves.
To me, that’s just what people do in a park. That’s (also) what parks are for.
When you start, for the first 5 minutes or so, people will look at you, maybe they’ll even point at you, maybe even laugh.
But unless you live in a really shitty depressing place, that laugh will be one of joy, and they’ll look and point at you cause they are interested.
Source: I did all those activities in parks. No one ever laughed at me, and I never got the feeling they thought I’m a weirdo.
I meant not being able to rummage around in /etc .
Since it is read-only, you always have to copy a config file into your home/user/.config/… before you can edit it.
It was hyperbole. I used Silverblue for a bit trying to avoid layering packages entirely.
But not being able to simply install CLI system tools I’m used to (like btop) or rummaging around in /etc felt really limiting. I realize that’s on me, cause these distros work differently.
Then staying with Windows forever, no matter how shit it’s become and how much it’s changed even compared to just 2 years ago, is the only option.
Fedora Silverblue is basically Android.
You click on apps in a software store to install, it updates itself (without you noticing) on reboot, the terminal is entirely optional and almost entirely useless.
Yes. It’s the only package on my system that still depends on X. Without it, I could remove X entirely.
The “housekeeper” was an unmarried woman who lived in the same house as the priest, often for life, and if she got pregnant, the Catholic church would financially support the baby.
