What about Bazzite? It comes with tons of stuff for gaming out of the box including tools to install and manage emulators and roms.

In Switzerland, the basic training lasts a year I think? And is meant to teach how the army works and how to use weapons and not just rifles and pistols and knives. Depending on their role they also learn how to use artillery, mortars, how to use maps, how to use vehicles and tanks, how to make calculations and navigate and so much more.

The whole point of this is that when shit hits the fan, any additional training takes a lot less time.

It has to be well implemented and taught well. Maybe in your case it wasn’t and you have a bad experience of it.

Any country that’s serious about training it’s people to be ready for combat in case of a serious invasion will probably do a better job than one that isn’t because they want to be prepared.

In any case, I can understand why you would feel the way you do if it was implemented poorly in your country.

Mandatory military service only trains them in the basics so they are ready when the risk becomes reality.

Switzerland has mandatory service. France used to have mandatory service. It never created what your said it creates.

I think you’re making a lot of assumptions.

You have a better idea for NATO members and other US allies when Trump decides to break all ties and befriend Russia? If they don’t have enough resources in the military to defend themselves, what are they supposed to do?

Time to make military service mandatory again.

You reap what you fucking sow.

They could call it Eunux!

Oh…

It’s pretty convenient to call aid organizations terrorists. That gives you an excuse to kill them and prevent any aid to be delivered to the people you’re trying to wipe out.

You should get the Pantheon desktop environment for a more Mac like experience.

Yeah, it does.

In Montreal, about 0.1% of the people own about 30% of the properties. Most of them are rich property investors. Many of which are real estate agents, too. They own the market.

Congratulations. I deleted mine earlier this year and it’s been a blessing. The community I used to be a part of has become so toxic. I go check it out from time to time and I can see I made the right decision.

It’s got a touch interface more than anything else. I think this change came around the same time as Windows 8 when they went for a more touch screen-y experience.

I gave an original Surface Pro tablet and I use Ubuntu’s Gnome on it. It’s perfect for tablets I find. Not so great for desktop PCs.

Budgie has great potential. I really love the look and feel. And I especially love the side bar. I feel that’s a feature that’s missing in KDE.

Budgie however isn’t “there” yet. I’ve experienced quite a few bugs using it and it’s still missing a few features. But it’s getting there. It might become my go to one day.

I have mine look and work almost as exactly as Windows 10, which I really love in terms of UI/UX. It’s the most easiest and fastest desktop interface I’ve ever used so far.

I have a tiled app menu and I even changed the window decorations to look like Windows 10. I hate rounded corners. It’s such a waste of screen space.

That’s what I’d be using too. But it felt too incomplete and buggy. It’s not there yet, but it’s very promising.

Maybe the one child per family policy was a bad policy…

It’s funny how the Chinese government can’t admit to making any mistakes. This would only prove they are human.

Linux is the kernel, the core of the system.

A distribution is a collection of software that is provided with the kernel, usually with it’s own software package management system. Distributions are also supported and maintained by organizations which create their own tools for that distribution and also make decisions on what to distribute it with.

For example, Fedora is maintained and supported by the company RedHat which implemented their own tools and packaging system to use Linux. Debian is the same but with a community.

Desktop environments are that it says. You have several available in Linux. The two major ones being KDE and GNOME. They provide a desktop experience with their own paradigms. Just like the MacOS and Windows have their own desktop environments. They’re basically graphical shells to allow users to use the system.

The sandboxing isn’t as much as, say, Docker containers. So I think access to memory and devices is still possible and can eventually get you access to the whole system. I would think.

And this isn’t limited to flatpaks but I would assume Snaps as well, which some software is now delivered in that format by Canonical, even for server software.

That’s interesting. I’ll have to look deeper into that
