I would have told you that for $1500.

If it wasn’t that, she’d find something else to be obnoxious about. For me everything was literally 1984 at the time.
Absolutely not a mistake. When I read 1984 as a teenager, it forever inoculated me against doublespeak and propaganda. Maybe that movie can fulfill a similar function today.
But that’s a legitimate reason for it to exist. A lot of people have reservations towards Linux because they’re concerned about the gaming experience. Making it smooth and easy is a good thing. Having said that, I just installed Steam on Mint and everything ran just fine. I only play Steam games on that machine, though.
No. You whippersnappers may not remember, but journalistic standards once were a thing.
Have you tried Mint or something similar? You can absolutely run and install it without using the command line.
Why pay for insurance if you can just buy some politicians? They’re pretty cheap.
I hear the murder rate is in decline.
I’d give it a shot if i was on the lookout for something new, but I see absolutely no reason to switch from Mint.

If she doesn’t like it, find a new wife!
If you have cutting edge hardware, this might be an issue. But most people don’t and for them Mint will work just fine. If you want cutting edge, don’t use Mint. But that’s not their focus at all. Mint is for people who just want their computer to work with minimal hassle.
You must! The Penguin demands it!
I hope you found a new job quickly but congratulations on getting out of that hellhole.
It’s outrageous! You must start a crusade to make them see the error of their ways and start using Arch!
Another shitty AI written article. Is there any source that makes sense?
Time for another 2008 style financial meltdown. Haven’t had one of those in a while.
Calling someone Taliban while at the same time sharing a lot of Taliban ideology is the kind of delicious irony people like Rowling are completely oblivious to.
