I recommend Linux Mint. It's very beginner friendly and you don't need to use the console too much if that kind of thing bothers you. The GUI even looks very similar to a Windows 10 environment.

Greedfall was a lot of fun if you specialized in firearms. That mechanic is so OP and it's thematically consistent considering your character belongs to a colonizing power. You can end up one-shotting common enemies and obliterate bosses before they even get a chance to get within melee range.

We desperately need smaller vehicles to counter the behemoth light trucks that are in the road today. Everything about these kei truck bans just scream corruption and incompetence from politicians to domestic auto manufacturers.

I'm willing to bet they'll start adding telemetry features in RPiOS for "quality purposes" a few years from now.

I heard this same argument from people all the time. Until it affects you in a meaningful way to change your mind, it'll be too late.

The surveillance would be a double edged sword. If they were to be hacked, all sensitive information that was going through their PCs could be compromised.

Oh good another reason to wear face masks in this hellish cyberpunk dystopia. Imagine suffering the equivalent of credit card fraud because someone took a photo of you in public.

Interesting. I thought engineers were supposed to be funneled into the companies that make the weapons, not use them. Either way it's kind of shitty to encourage people to enlist during a major event meant to celebrate their academic achievements.

It's the Chinese government. Not the common Chinese people. I have no problem with ordinary folks trying to live out their lives with friends and family. I do take issue with the CCP using its military to bully fishermen in the South China sea and fucking over the Uyghurs, Tibetans, and Taiwanese.

Honestamente tengo mis problemas con los españoles quitando tantos idiomas y creencias indígenas para empezar. Pero no estamos hablando del nahuatl o de los mayas.

Aunque es cierto que idiomas vivas cambian para reflejar los valores y preferencias gramáticas de sus usuarios, no es algo que puede ser forzado de tal manera. Palabras son "prestadas" de otros lenguajes todo el tiempo para describir cosas nuevas o por lo menos para sonar un poco más distinguido. El problema que yo veo con cambiando todo un idioma que requiere género con tantas palabras es que se va a transformar a todo un nuevo idioma para acomodarlo. Eso requiere un nivel de coordinación entre gente e instituciones y gobiernos que no será fácil si no imposible.

Intenta leer todo este pasaje con cada palabra que termina con o/a en la manera que esta gente insiste sea más "inclusiva". Verás que va a sonar cómo una forma de catalán censurado.

I'm gonna talk in the way you want all Spanish speakers to do and hopefully you'll see how stupid an idea it is to get rid of gendered words.

El (Elae?) RAE ne hablx per todes nosotres. Nuestrx manere de hablar ne es dictadx per un solx pinche institución real. Cambiande un idiomx tiene que venir por le voluntad colective de tode le gente que lo hablx.

I switched over from your instance because of the censorship. It's infantilizing to cross out or add asterisks to such words.
