I don’t know what rock you’ve been living under where you think base Firefox wasn’t ever improved

I hate that cliche’d, untrue, glurgey phrase with a passion. But your point is good.

Just like cable! \o/

Either they’re really harmfully stupid, or they’re an unethical bad-faith/lying asshole. Pick one.

You’re not that stupid. You can’t be that stupid.

GOD DAMMIT that was the first thing I thought of and I was just about to post it! Post was 6 hours ago, your reply was 44 minutes ago. I was too late.

I hate you, have my upvote.

Oh, thank god. Plasma looks good for me. Easy to look at and professional. Assuming I understand how it works, which popular distros can use Plasma? Update: After some quick research, I think I want to use Kubuntu? Does that sound like a good idea?

That’s beside the point.

This is sociopathic, probably anger-fueled thinking. You don’t spend enough time around people, you don’t realize how imperfect and different literally everyone is, and you don’t really know what their problems are; so you tend to dehumanize people who make mistakes. What happened was horrible, some people may never forgive them, but they are still humans. Not to mention that you can’t trust humans in the first place to even pick the right people to punish, let alone to punish humanely. Not that punishment was ever a good response.

Or maybe you do realize these things and you’ll come to your senses later.

I see. I’ll look into it, thanks.

That’s all fair advice. It doesn’t change that installation instructions should have been a lot more thorough though. Once I get a third (or bigger primary) SSD, I’ll dual-boot Mint. I still want to try it. Regardless of my issues with it, I do know Linux is getting better. And we can see how ready I am for it now (and that’s partially up to the software).

Cool, but didn’t everyone tell me I should use Mint, for a bunch of reasons including “it’s arguably the most beginner-friendly”?

What does that mean. What does “the year of the Linux desktop” mean, really? And why is it different than last year?
