The only actual solution crypto does have is, as one would guess, encrypted transactions.

Banks have a use for it, financial institutions who want to send money from A to B have a use for it. Countries in civil war and strife who need funds and are blocked on most other methods have a use for it.

I don't get the "doesn't have a purpose" meme when it's written right on crypto's sleeve, and it is used for those purposes, and does a good job of it.

If a website creates its own cryptocurrency that means they are in control of it. If Reddit, Plebbit, and Brave really gave any sort of a shit about crypto as it exists, they would've used LTC or BCH or something easily transferrable that can't rug because it isn't in their hands to rug it, but then that defeats the purpose of milking short-term gamblers of their funds, which was the entire point.

After it's been sold, or even on the lot surrounded by other vehicles coming and going all day. Even if it's driven down the road once, the front bumper will be pitted with rock marks.

Of course I didn't.

It's unpainted. On a painted vehicle, a dent or a scratch is a sanding, cleaning and a painting away. Paint can fill scratches and voids. If the entire surface is bare metal, you can't bodyfill it if it gets a dent and you can't weld metal into it or onto it to fill a void without marring the finish.

These are going to age like bananas.

Humanize is a harsh word for describing what not to do to any group of people.

They are people, I mean...

I used Arch for about a decade but I got really tired of babysitting.

Oh, that library causes crashes to such and such app, either downgrade or eat shit until it's updated again

That can be a day,... a week, a month, maybe longer.

Mint is new enough without being too new and it's polished enough without seeming like too much, like Garuda or most flavors of Ubuntu.

I mean, if you're still wanting, it's wanting.

Personally I don't really touch EA or Ubisoft so, I don't miss anything, and even if I was into them, from the looks of things, I wouldn't be missing much.

and I don't believe any of those factors are improving without either a collapse or a revolution. There are better wastes of paper found in most bathrooms.

...G...Gaza.

"WHY!!?"

I went Windows 10 > Linux Mint

I have nothing to complain about. Lateral move in terms of functionality. In terms of general freedom and feeling like I actually own the PC I purchased,... 100% improvement.
