Ok so this is the worst thing I can think of, mainly because now there will be an absolute metric assload of an influx of newbies to Linux with the reading comprehension of a fucking toddler (ie. the entire fanbase of this fucknut whose probably apparently still a fucking nazi or something? Don't know, never could stand him) flooding forums and other places after some "artificial intelligence helper" of some megacorporation told them to "sudo rm -rf /" or something. Let's just hope they'll mostly stick to everywhere else but here

Gonna have to go with alcohol and benzodiazepine abuse for this one, basically because it's the only one that I have beaten (citation needed). Only one relapse in the past 10-ish years or so! Though it took a few relationships with it, and I've gone through multiple hospitalizations (some even voluntarily), and because of that combo and all the other shit that was going on in my head (not to mention the cocktail of SSRIs and eventual SNRIs like Effexor at max dosage combined with stuff like Seroquel at max dosage for literal years, of which Effexor is still the bane of my existence; and stuff like ECT) there's like this hazy quality in my own past for me. As if I'm talking about someone else. I can't even remember most of my life from around 2013-2018 or so.

I'd say the worst part about abusing benzos with alcohol is how good it feels. I still have the cravings. Like even now I'd be up for it. That combined with the fact that it only brings out the worst in me, every narcissistic and sosiopathic tendency is not only brought forth but amplified also. And it's unhealthy in general.

So if you don't happen to die in your sleep; once you wake up and realize just how many people you've hurt, when the full weight of your own actions and the coming consequences descend upon you, you just might hope that you did. Vice, thy name is me

He's gone to the roots! Though, if you're a person who goes to far-right gatherings it's not ok to be proud, were you a citizen of any country.

Hello all,

So I have this old Samsung RV520 laptop. You can see the specs there. I've installed and reinstalled a few different linux distros on it for the past 12 years or so, the last one being Arch (btw) which is what I use as my daily driver on my main desktop as well (by the btw). But I really don't need this laptop anymore, so I was thinking I'd give it as a birthday present to my friend's son, who turns 2 this month. It would be used as a "media station" to basically just play kids' videos from Youtube.

The problem is that I basically need to install an extremely windows-like (or otherwise simple) distro on it, because while my linux-fu is somewhat high level, my friend uses windows daily so system maintenance must be simple. Ubuntu is for me the obvious choice, but I'm not sure if the laptop can even run it anymore :D of course the HDD in it is also 16 years old and I'm pretty sure I'll upgrade it to an SSD before set up. So, taking all this preamble into account, what would you recommend? Some Ubuntu-derivative, pure Debian, maybe even Arch with linux-lts? Give me your thoughts!

That was 5 years ago. What's with the fucking hold up; the fat, doughnut-eating, trigger-happy, right-wing gun-nut, klan-members that are the police force there didn't wanna agree to not systematically discriminate and/or use excessive force, huh?

"act entitled and cry 'antisemitism!' if criticized" seems to have been their chosen method thus far. I guess the stupid fucks really need to be taught to not post their war crimes online. But then again, I think you need to have an IQ score lower than the average US boot size to ever be a(n IDF) soldier.

A list of targets, one could call it?

How many meals can this buy for those wanting? Shelters for the homeless? Treatment for the sick? Oh wait, I forgot. The US is a third world country with a Gucci belt. The fascists do what the fascists do.

oh wow, a major media outlet caught lying? I would be shocked, flabbergasted even, if it weren't business as usual for them (emphasis on business)

Well, I work as a bartender, and here in Finland it's strictly against the law to serve alcohol to, or even allow a "visibly intoxicated person" to enter the premises (a law which almost every bar breaks at some point, intentionally or no), and I think I've witnessed multiple times myself how a customer's level of intoxication reveals itself only after you have served a drink to them and they've payed for it. Could it be called a Schrödrinker's cat?
