That’s fine Then you’ll die from hunger. Which is socially acceptable. And not at all a problem in the greater scheme of… things. I mean as long as you can find someone that pays for your funeral, it’s cool.

What I see recommended nowadays is indeed mint, various Ubuntu variations, arch (always, although a lot of the time in jest), Nix fairly regularly, and as for the classics: SuSE and Fedora, they’re rarely mentioned.

If you’re alt-tabbing, you’re already missing the point.

It all makes sense now. US can’t abide naked people because there’s no place for them to stow a weapon.

Only the keyboard lights matter!

And windows users are well known for their mastery of esoteric programming languages. Such as… um… ah… batch files, which, well, some of them can write. If they’re not more than four or five lines.
But that counts, right?

Are you new around here?

Is your egg too expensive?
Look no further. Our egg is much smoother and can be worn with most garments.

EggEgg. For your egg.

Hey, the poor had orgies too! Crappy orgies, but orgies nonetheless!

So, pretty much like any other era, really.

Ah, well as you can see, I’m not using it much. But then, imposing one usage mode (tiling) to have several windows is a typical gnome move.

I dropped Gnome when 1.0 or 1.1 was released (it was a while ago, I don’t remember which one it was). At the time, they were already full swing in their “bondage and discipline” mode, removing stuff here and there, knowing better than their users (which they already completely ignored), while KDE was doing the exact opposite.

Now I’ll be the first to admit that Gnome has done some interesting things every now and then. But in my eyes, it hasn’t been worth all the aggravation and the general reduced functionality. Even if you can mitigate it a little with plugins. Also it’s now going for a tablet-like single app interface (where you have only one window on the screen at the time) which I find idiotic given the huge screens we now have, and the way Unix (and Linux) GUIs in general are wonderfully designed to deal with numerous windows. So although I give it a try every now and then, I haven’t actually used it since those 1.0 days. And good riddance. Fuck you Gnome. You could have been great.

It might be possible, but you can be sure that Apple made it as inconvenient as they technically could. They try their best to lock everyone in. You’re probably better off getting some kind of Apple box to manage those machines.

Countries like Europe, Africa…

That would have been a very bizarre comment. I thought you were annoyed at my association of sombreros with Mexican people.

We call it the subway or the metro nowadays.

“This shouldn’t happen”

Cats have always been both predator and prey.

That’s ok, he probably taped them in later on.

Yes, but not really. It can be convenient. Just remember it takes more space so provision accordingly for /.
