It think he's role playing as a "wildcard" character. He actually has said he likes being unpredictable to keep people on their toes.

I like my stuff hidden anyway so I don't care all to much. I disable leds usually because they are distracting but keep one solid led to indicate whether the system is on or not.

Doug Ford has a history of anti urbanism.

I mean, if they insist on everything being in Dutch then at least include a flag. If you're going this deep on the UK obviously having the list in the native language is preferable.

The reason for the list above being all in Dutch might be because it's a list of countries, not a list of languages. (I speak some Dutch)

They're going to hiss at me aren't they?

Bang on mate. It's here in the "Misattributed" section https://en.m.wikiquote.org/wiki/Cicero

Cicero was world class complainer after all.

Where do you put the tooth paste?

Always has been

If people really insist then at least have a flag emoji

I'd also want to see the same methodology when assessing being happy, have many close friends you can trust etc.

The thing is that it's legit a fraction and d/dx actually explains what's going on under the hood. People interact with it as an operator because it's mostly looking up common derivatives and using the properties.

Take for example ∫f(x) dx to mean "the sum (∫) of supersmall sections of x (dx) multiplied by the value of x at that point ( f(x) ). This is why there's dx at the end of all integrals.

The same way you can say that the slope at x is tiny f(x) divided by tiny x or d*f(x) / dx or more traditionally (d/dx) * f(x).

Vetrarbrautin in Icelandic, meaning "winter track". Similar to Swedish vintergatan

I think the R is ripe for some socialist ideology, they spend so much time demonizing the D that they could say "we promise baby money" and people will go nuts.

Good one

What's the term when a country has a brain drain but caused by itself?

Why not just, pretend it doesn't exist?

In a hypothetical where there's a murderer with a machine gun killing children that will not be prosecuted in court then wishing them to be dead is pretty reasonable if you want the killing to stop.

Not saying killing is moral or that people don't have the right to live because they do but how else would you stop the murder if the government doesn't?

If one side kills 100 for each one of their own killed there's a big difference. Other factors to consider is when your land is blocked off from the outside world by land, sea and air and being routinely invaded. The Geneva convention says there is a right to resist occupation on top of that which Israel did sign.

TL;DR: Try installing some on virtual box, by all means try Linux mint cinnamon but also try Ubuntu and Fedora KDE.

Linux has some jargon and since you want to learn I'll give you a quick rundown of how a variation of Linux is composed.

"Kernel" is what makes Linux Linux. It's a way of interacting with the hardware.

A "distribution" or "distro" is a one of the many flavors of Linux.

They are usually "based" on a common foundation like Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Nix and whatever. These also work like an onion where Mint is based on Ubuntu which in turn is based on Debian, all of which use some version of the Linux kernel.

A that's just a base will just get you a terminal (also called a shell or console) and is very useful to make a server for example.

What most people think of as an OS is the user interface (i.e. clickable shit). The terminology in Linux for that is "desktop environment" (DE).

You'll see a lot of distributions mix and watch between a base and a desktop environment such as Fedora with KDE, Ubuntu (Ubuntu with Gnome), Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE), Bazzite (Fedora silverblue base with either gnome, KDE or deck DE).

You mentioned Cinnamon. Cinnamon is a desktop environment for Mint so a Linux Mint Cinnamon contains the code of the following:

Linux kernel, Debian, Ubuntu and Mint as a base and Cinnamon to interact with it by using a mouse and keyboard.

There are currently three bases that are really popular right now, Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch. In the DE there are currently two that are most advanced, namely KDE and Gnome but Cinnamon is not far behind.

In all honestly, none of this matters all too much, just install a couple of popular distros on a virtual machine like Virtual Bok and do a vibe check.

Take a couple of these, install some programs and fuck around with the settings for a bit, install themes and whatever or watch a quick YouTube video on it:

• Ubuntu (gets hate for being corporate but is solid, uses Gnome)
• Linux mint Cinnamon
• Fedora KDE
• EndavourOS (an arch based distro that's supposedly easy, haven't tried it)
• Bazzite (weird way to install programs through the package manager but hard to fuck up beyond repair)
• Something with the Xfce DE just to see the "lightweight" look.
