Panik: your Debian stable system is so ancient it still contains the heartbleed bug.

I stopped reading after the third book too, and that’s exactly the sense I got.

There’s no conclusions, just character deaths. It’s just an unraveling web that becomes less and less coherent the further it goes.

Caffeine is pretty well studied and it’s known that the long term health effects are nothing close to cocaine. I doubt if there was any good science back then on the long term effects of cocaine, let alone enough education for the populace to know and understand it.

However social perceptions may change anyway. What we consider as not serious may be considered much more serious in the future. For example many people get headaches or even migraines as a withdrawal symptom of caffeine, and we don’t consider a headache to be serious.

But I saw a Star Trek episode once where Picard gets a headache and it was a big deal because those had been solved for hundreds of years by that time! Turns out the ferengi were controlling his mind or something. So caffeine may be considered a serious drug in the future if it interferes with the detection of alien mind control devices.

Yeah that’s clearly not what we’re talking about here. Cortisol cream for eczema is a steroid, but nobody using it would say they’re on roids.

We’re obviously talking about people who juice for muscle mass.

Or how many times I seen someone point to someone on steroids … and say that they are healthy.

There is, it’s literally right there on the home page of the project. You can either copy a URL and download it by cloning the git repo, or you can download the whole project as a zip file. Then you just have to compile it!

GitHub is for developers, not end users.

Isn’t breaking the 4th wall when the speak to audience.

Trans trees are trees.

First time hearing about liability?

Sometimes companies will say things that they don’t even believe themselves, just to protect themselves from the law.

It’s called LI - A - BIL - I -TY

You should put some more quotation marks to make sure nobody gets confused.

People don’t have anywhere near enough knowledge of how things work to make their choices based on trust. People aren’t getting on the subway because they trust the engineers did a good job; they’re doing it because it’s what they can afford and they need to get to work.

Similarly, people aren’t using Reddit or Adobe or choosing their cars firmware based on trust. People choose what is affordable and convenient.

I hope it comes preinstalled with sl and similar programs.

I honestly feel like people who say this stuff either haven’t tried Linux since 2008 or went straight to Arch.

I use Manjaro as my daily driver and I never need to fix the system. It really does just work, and these a bunch of disyros out there that do.

The only thing you might find terrible is trying to run windows programs on Linux, to which I say: dual boot! Even with all the progress Proton, Lutris etc. have made, it’s still way easier to just boot into windows on the occasion you want to play games or whatever.
