Doesn't matter. You can rape children and murder an entire bus of puppies. If you're releasing a new version of everyone's favorite thing, you're immediately forgiven.

That's the society we live in. "my entertainment and desires above all else!"

Most people don't have the luxury of local isp options unfortunately

who.. what?

I've never heard any one really complain about gas stations. is the questioned and response worded poorly? I think people hate paying high prices for gas but I've never heard any one say they hate gas stations before.

ISP's tho, every one can agree that they can go gargle an entire warehouses of unwashed dicks

some systems can be really weird with ram, if its possible its always best to go with a brand/make/model/speed recommended by the manufacture if they're providing such a list but usually I find you'll only get such a detailed list of ram from high end desktop motherboards and thats if you're lucky.

I did a job for a client with some weird re-branded boutique gaming laptop that was bluescreen crashing due to bad ram. The damn thing had zero documentation to work with so all I could do was work with the exact type/speed of ram that laptop came with but it also had generic no name brand ram in it so I just went with whats usually a solid option, crucial ram.

two sticks of 16gb (she def didnt need this much ram since all she did was excel work but she wanted it).

Only one of her sticks of ram was reporting as bad, but she wanted to get two of the same to ensure compatibility which isnt bad a idea but usually not necessary.

I installed both new sticks of ram and ran mem tests again. its still getting an error. I put the one good-old stick of ram back in and ran the tests again twice, once with the known good old stick of ram in both slots and it came back with no errors so I know the slots are good.

I put one stick of the new ram in, mem-test came back good. put both sticks in, mem-test came back failed. that means the last new stick I put in must be a doa stick stick right? wrong. I tested the last stick I put in by its self and the mem tests passed. wtf

put them both in but swapped the slots, fails again.

I put in one of hte old sticks and one of the new sticks.. it passes. i run these tests several times. makes no god damn sense. all the ram is good, both the slots are good, i just didnt like both new sticks installed at the same time for some reason.

Gnu Linux does have an actual lengthy license agreement.

It's that license agreement that keeps it free and open and also ensures that people can't just steal it, claim it as their own, and then open legal disputes against anyone who who tries to use it them selves (among other legal things in sure).

I just wish chrome wasnt so fucking useful by comparison. its integration into my android phone is equal to none. the firefox browser on android is ok but it does not integrate quite as well as the whole google platform. then there's the performance on linux. I hate to say it but chrome feels so much smoother and nicer to use on linux than even firefox does. I've tried making the full switch to firefox several times, last time I daily drove it for probably almost 3 months but eventually found my way back to chrome, it was just a more enjoyable experience.

then there is the fact that every website builds their code to ensure it works with chrome, that is one advantage of chrome being the vast majority of the browser user pool, web devs can focus on making sure the one thing works really well.

that all said, just like wine and linux, it is important that we have a completely separate alternative so we're not entirely reliant should the ship start to sink. I've already fully converted to linux and its been my daily driver for a few years now, not looking back. I know plenty of people are still on windows but with ever new release it feels like they're doing more and more to punch holes in the SS.Windows ship and i'll eventually be a sinking boat for enough people who see that an alternative exists. Same will need to be said for chrome vs firefox

magic is just physics we dont understand yet.. think this could still work

You're not... Wrong.

Idk some American bread isn't awful but it's nothing compared to quality bread. As an American it frustrates me that I can't get much decent bread at the local grocery and would have to hunt down a specialty bakery to find anything remotely good and would likely pay x5 the price for it.

If you want to daily drive linux, I recommend just installing only linux and commit to it for a bit. If you dual boot you may just find that you end up booting into windows and dont go back.

also recommend considering a rolling release distro. idk about Ai stuff but for games, a rolling release is almost always better.
