When you stop being offended by letters on a page and direct that hate towards the individuals that use the word as a slur or out of context on purpose, you'll be a lot happier.

Substring completion on ZSH. Type in a small part of the command you want to find and then press up.

The whole comment reads as astroturf. I would treat it as such.

Seagate and Best buy. I'm double pass.

Yes, I'm an arch user. But that's not the point. Even using something like mint, you still have to pay attention. Someone who's not willing to do that needs a curated operating system. Simple as that.

I also like to watch locally hosted videos from time to time. I also had the problem with VLC. 10 minutes later I had my answer, the problem was fixed, and I went on with my day. I didn't need to whine about the attitude of someone providing free tech support to someone else, and I didn't whine about a simple package adjustment.

I'll say it again. Linux isn't for everybody. Not yet. It still takes a little bit of grit.

So to be clear, you are willing to upend your entire system and potentially your workflow because a single package update was mishandled and because somebody was a little too direct on a forum?

Have you considered Mac OS? Yes, I'm being snarky, but the Linux world isn't fully user friendly. If you're unwilling to roll with the punches, it may not actually be for you.

EDIT: I guess tough love from somebody who ran slackware from a stack of physical representations of save buttons is unwelcome. Noted.

It's a real pity my bills don't see it that way.

Nope. You play what you want. I, however, will not play any game from a company that demonstrably dislikes its customers. So far, wizards of the Coast and games workshop are on my list. In the electronic space, EA, Microsoft, and Sony.

For some of us, the 2016 Democratic primary was quite illuminating. I'm glad to see people are catching up finally.

And holding the camera is generation x, smiling and nodding like an exhausted parent as though millennials have discovered something new.

The solution here is even easier than the division they've already been sowing upon the American people.

You don't send them home. You send them to the place that is the most culturally disparate from the way they grew up possible. You're a New England liberal? Great. We'll post you in the center of conservative Texas. Red Cap from a family of Diehard conservatives? You go to Oregon. New York inner city youth? You get special duty, guarding critical corporate infrastructure.

Keep them divided, keep them guessing. All it takes for control of a human being.

All technology eventually trends towards the walled garden, either for reasons of greed or of "safety".
