    I’m 35, and I’m perfectly able to engage with the thought process behind the opinion, no matter how radical. All they want is to be treated with respect.

    Contrast with “real adults” who e.g. continue to trash the planet because they can’t even think of slightly decreasing the amount by which they enrich themselves. Those I don’t respect. They are the real radicals.

    If a 15 year old says “so much good can happen when a few billionaires kick the bucket”, I’m right there with them.













  • It’s been great almost since I started using it.

    I started using it exactly when 4.0 came out, because that’s when I started using Linux and I thought learning 3 didn’t make sense. But 4 only got stable around 4.4 I think. The problem was that 4.0 wasn’t intended to be for end users yet, but distributions didn’t realize that and packaged it right away.

    KDE didn’t repeat that mistake. 5.0 was almost completely smooth sailing (some applications took a long time to port and looked ugly, that’s it), and 6.0 was completely seamless.



  • I’d rather have neutral, fact based reporting. That one party endorses “alternative facts” was a choice by that party. It doesn’t mean that people more grounded in reality are biased.

    In other words: if you are an US-American news source that reports neutrally, the vast majority of your staff will be voting Democrats.
