I just spent 45 minutes trying to install Standard Notes “the right way”

I’m curious what you mean by the “right” way, from a website? Linux does things differently at a fundamental level, that I won’t deny. But I’ll also say, if you’re interested in Linux, you have to be willing to learn.

I’m not an expert, but as I understand it most Linux distributions rely on repositories, and expect you to install most of your software from there for both security and compatibility reasons. Those errors were telling you what additional things needed to be downloaded before what you selected would work. And I guess I’m confused on that point. You said it pointed you to what you needed, did things not work after the downloads completed? I know Linux Mint does this, and it’s considered to be very user friendly. To use your analogy, if you turn the welder on and it says you need fuel, “please download this exact type” that should resolve the issue.

I know it’s hard expecting everything in Linux to function exactly like Windows, but that’s not how it works and that’s by design. Regardless, as Windows adopts more spyware, ads, and anti-user features into their products I think Linux is the far better (free and open-source) choice and it’s definitely worth learning… Good luck!

Surely you mean the much worse “Max”.

Wait, we’re supposed to be involving mist? Women just get more and more complicated…

Who…?

Well… At least withhold that ass until he stops voting Republican!

You… might have misunderstood the assignment.

“Do you hear yourself right now?”

I would never treat people the way I feel towards printers! Hateful, vile things…

PC LOAD LETTER

I feel like you don’t fully understand that the line can go up. At the expense of everything…

To all Trump supporters:

You stupid bitch.

You think she learned her lesson and didn’t help him get elected a second time? I admire your optimism, in the face of recent evidence to the contrary…

While suing nonprofit fan projects and streamers into oblivion, ignoring hardware defects, and keeping their game prices artificially high, unavailable, or both. Man, they make it difficult to be a fan…

How many years has he been lying about Tesla’s full self-driving (camera only) capabilities? Among other things. Please don’t advertise this disgusting creature’s self-promotion…

It’s just a gimmick account with a silly style to amuse themself, who gives a shit? Just ignore it and move on…

People who start from an illogical assumption and then expect you to argue against it confuse me. “Failure points”? I’m guessing you’re young and don’t mail things often, but they basically don’t happen. Like, ever. 999/1000 times, it just gets there, they all do. The same could be said of risking a malicious person collecting the polls at a drop-box, or it could get dropped in the election day chaos.

As for why they might not want to go in person? That’s literally the easiest option, there’s not really a middle-man. My state sends the ballot in the mail (yes, I’ve always gotten it). Then we can leisurely fill it out at home, privately, with all the time and resources to research ballot measures, etc. Then just drop it in outgoing mail at home or work and it’ll just get there. Again, never even heard of anyone ever having issues. And you can track it and submit a provisional ballot in case something does happen to the original one.

I can get you a comment, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don’t wanna know about it, believe me. Hell, I can get you a comment by 3 o’clock this afternoon… with awards.

Pure entitlement, distilled in a comment. It’s possible they didn’t do enough Google-Fu and instead asked this community for help. Instead, you berated them, then purposefully withheld the information. In other words you are way more annoying and wasted more of your own time than just ignoring it and moving on.

(By the way, I found the actual replies informative, proving the usefulness of the post)

Isn’t Nvidia insanely overvalued? I feel like they’ll just have to readjust when the AI bubble bursts…

“B movie” is insane. What they accomplished with their low budget is phenomenal, if that’s what they mean…
