It doesn't matter how/if they're linked to the attack, just that he said the magic evil words. Kind of like socialism and communism.
What war? And I'm pretty fine with much of the people on reddit staying there. They're a good part of why I came here.
Hawaii. I used to live in Florida and while it has some pretty places and neat things, most of it is generic grubby little towns, trailer parks and lots and lots of rednecks. And most of isn't very tropical.
Plus, Hawaii has volcanoes, which are always cool.
YMMV.
I may get hate for this, but... I do this a fair bit because I prefer TUIs for a lot of stuff, and also end up doing a lot of things in emacs because I usually have it open anyway...
Ah yes, the update nobody actually wants...
Probably depends how you define things. Like, is Xubuntu Xubuntu or Ubuntu with Xfce included by default? How much change is necessary before it's not "debian with added bits"?
Compiling code converts it from human readable source code into optimized machine code which the processor understands how to execute. For a lot of software you can just unpack the source code, run ./configure, run 'make', and then 'make install'. This can vary a lot and is a simplified explanation, but it's a start...
My take: I don't recommend distros like mint because they're windows-y, I do it because they're good 'shit just works' starting points and Linux newbies probably don't need to be spending 2 hours figuring out why audio doesn't work or whatever. Once they get their feet under them and learn their way around a shell, etc then they can start playing around with other distros if they like.
I like it. Everyone these days seems to want web pages that are 5MB of dynamically generated junk.
My little website is just static hugo-generated stuff.
Linux is bloat. You should be entering your own minimal kernel in microcode via front panel switches at boot instead of being so wasteful. What do you think all that RAM and drive space is for? Holding data??
(Seriously, the modern minimalist thing is hilarious to me and I've been using computers since 16K of RAM was impressive...)
Found in a time capsule in 2150: hey guys, we left you a little something over there by Vesuvius...you'll thank us later. And you better not have built a McDonald's on it...
I think you mean Tasmanian devil, which do suffer from a freaky infectious cancer. Tasmanian tigers are extinct.
