This highlights a weird side effect of weapons rights. The right to own weapons by the citizens to protect themselves from government tyranny, combined with the need for law enforcement to arm themselves adequately against heavily armed citizens breaking the law, becomes an arms race between the citizens and their country, with whoever is better funded being the winner.

Telling the citizens to drop their weapons doesn't mean the cops drop theirs. Telling the cops to stop arming themselves against citizens just sends them to their death during confrontations.

I suggest we all go play video games instead

That's what the neurotypical execs want and it's stupid as hell

I worked a remote call center position pre-COVID alongside on-site coworkers and we always beat the on-site people, consistently

I'll take it, very rare when companies give a shit about user privacy in the US, not like Europe.

Why the fuck would I explain advanced Linux distro details to a child that isn't already well versed? Lol

Ubuntu cares about making themselves stand out and their bottom line at the expense of users having to eat shit like Snap, Unity, sending Unity search data to Amazon and unnecessary bugs that other distro don't have problems with. They were fantastic up until 12.04. Linux Mint avoids all of these problems and nails Ubuntu's desktop goals, use that instead.
