I got a new laptop with Windows 11 at work yesterday. This is the first time I’ve used 11. I must say, it’s not really that bad. Once you cut out all the enshittification, which our IT department does, it’s pretty decent. I would never dream of putting it in any of my own machines, of course.
Nonsense. You’ll get your Neuralink brain implant which will stop you from having any government unsanctioned thoughts.
My point was that capitalism is not the single source of evil many people make it out to be. So that’s the exact opposite of what i said.

Welcome to education in 2025.
Looks like there’ll be a lot of room for activities.

If you don’t understand how an MRI machine works you better not get medical care!
Accusing other people of dumb takes and spewing out a zinger like this does not require any more comment.
Just because you had a bad experiences doesn’t mean everyone will have. And Manjaro is about the dumbest distro to choose if you want a smooth experience. None of the things you describe are typical experiences. And of course Windows never has technical problems.
So basically, if you’re sawing trees with a blunt saw and somebody suggests sharpening the saw, you’ll say “I can’t, I got trees to cut!”?
But… but… then you’d have to think about what you’re doing and *gasp* develop a basic understanding of the technology that runs your life! Who has time for that nerd shit?
You can absolutely use Mint as a live system.
Birds of a feather.
Looks like your wife is only staying married to you to keep up appearances. You have to decide whether that’s something you want to accept. Personally I’d probably bail.
Where can I buy a Mac in a PC case with RGB? Not that I would, I’m just curious.
Who wouldn’t want to live in the workers’ paradise of North Korea? The evil Americans have deprived the poor South Koreans of this great privilege!
