    They (the people being recommended to) are just coming to linux and don't think about computers being so adaptable. They want a first impression that is already superior to windows or they will dismiss it as just a toy for nerds. Zorin holds your hand a bit with several themes and ready to use layouts it specifically introduces you to.

    Personally, I've been burned by corporate fucking around so much that using and getting in any way invested in anything that Isn't foss feels like I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop. I'd rather invest my learning "spoons" in something I can be sure will be there tomorrow.

    It also takes power away from them if people have an alternative that they can bail to.





  • I don't know, I suspect if a white kid threw a rock at a cop here and got shot there would be a sizable number of

    "Play stupid games.." smuglord posts

    Remember the white guy who got shot AFTER the police said on recording that he was holding a PHONE and one of the defenses used was "The phone could have been used to activate a bomb"? After that I'm ready to believe that USians would side with the cops no matter what.




  • The first movie fell flat primarily, as every dune fan will tell you, because it stopped before anything actually happened. Also, as any dune fan will tell you, it's kind of not movie-able in a way, because being stoic and playing your cards close to your chest is the way all the dialogue is. Like 2/3rds of the book is internal monologue though which explains the actual depth of what's being said and done from the perspective of everyone in the scene. Again I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said a million times before.

    I'm really liking the soundtrack as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgzE2TeXCl0 It's just something cool to watch on my 4k HDR TV I stole from the dump. (It has a tiny purple line of pixels that are always on through the middle and that's the only thing wrong with it)

    It's like this but then if you read through god emperor and then think about it for another month it starts to make sense.
