Fair; that was mostly a general warning, not necessarily directed at you, because many people do copypaste terminal commands without knowing what they are actually doing.
As long as you understand what a command does, absolutely go for it. No point typing that shit out when somebody else already has
Do not copy and paste into Bash if you don’t understand the commands you’re pasting in
Most of our gun violence is actually pistols, but they’re certainly not legally owned
This is the biggest thing. I’m very comfortable in Bash, but that is not the norm; the second my wife needs to run sudo apt get, she’s out, fuck that
I was thinking more that the whole pointing a pistol at the sun is awful fucking American
As a Canadian, I’m piping in to say that no, they probably don’t mean me
It’s probably the standard in both POSIX and the Single UNIX Specification, so I guess ask Ken Thompson?
LxQt is nice, it is barebones like Xfce, but built on the Qt framework like KDE. Xfce uses GTK, like GNOME.
I specifically like Xfce or LxQt, because I generally run older hardware; I suppose my biggest question is how easily I could use either (not overly picky about which). I’m not sure which desktop environment LMDE defaults to, but both Gnome and KDE are deal-breakers for me, unless it’s easily changeable.
I don’t have that problem on my actual Debian machines, because they’re headless anyways, there is no desktop environment at all
I’ve been curious about LMDE, I use the Xfce version of regular Mint, but am comfortable in Debian (at least, server Debian). How does LMDE compare?
Linux vs. Windows doesn’t generally affect the cost unless you’re building the machine yourself, or buying from a Linux specific vendor like Framework (which are generally more expensive than what you’ll find at Best Buy anyways). The major PC manufacturers are going to have Windows pre-installed whether you want it or not.
Did he write It during his cocaine years? I know Cujo, Tommyknockers, and Maximum Overdrive were
Probably not as well as cap and trade would have, but better than nothing
The free market got us into this mess because we don’t price in externalities; forcing companies to cover the cost of disposal of their packaging helps fix that. It’s the same idea as a carbon tax
I have a cocktail recipe you might like
It is always the oil companies, yes. I’ll give you ten bucks if you can find a societal problem that I can’t trace back to oil companies. Not counting homophobia, that one is a conservative religious problem
Pascal or Camel are best cases
Hell, I’d make that bet on margin
I was going to pipe in that I paid for Minecraft in infdev, so pre-alpha. But now that you mention it, it was dirt cheap, and they had already had several free access weekends in indev, so I had a pretty good idea of what I was getting myself into
