I used to be an avid Linux user a couple of years back -- but had to move to macos due to work. I however soon have the freedom to move back soon. Just out of cursiosity, do you know why people are recommending Mint over Ubuntu now?
I have no horse in the race, i'm just curious what changed as when i used Linux last time you would be recommended Ubuntu 95% of the time.
You there, Dane! Go to feddit.dk!
Wait how? I'm not sure i follow - if i committed such a stupid mistake i'm genuinely interested in understanding how :) Btw don't block feddit.dk it's just a danish focused instance with a lot of kind folks :)
Yes -- you should definetely segment away politics from some parts of your life. You should not fully disengage with it, but take a breather every now and then. Go for a walk, talk with some people about a hobby you enjoy despite your differences or just take a prolonged toilet break.
I find it infinitely exhausting that it seems like everything online these days evolves into a political discussion. I recently saw someone asking about how they can make more time for reading in their day -- someone mentioned that they read in the morning when working from home while having their morning coffee. And someone barged in and were like "Oh MuSt Be NiCE to HAve ThE TiMe FOR ThaT! No, soMe of Us Have To CommUTE 2 HouRS each way DaiLY BeCAuSe Of LAte StAGe CaPItalisM". And then it evolved into some revolutionary eat the rich stuff from there -- which i for the most part can follow.
But it was a post about asking how to make more time for reading... How did it end up with revolution? I personally believe the main problem with injecting politics into everything is that it becomes predictable and bland. Just like my example above. It's an interesting discussion for sure! But perhaps don't force it down everyone's throat all the time. It's like that friend who has a hobby that they just wont stop talking about all. the. fucking. time. It dissolves the seriousness of the discussion and makes other people tired of it.
Again, i'm not saying abstain or fully disengage from politics. But for gods sake, let people take a break every now and then if they're able to do so, and for five minutes just focus on something joyful eventho everything is going to shit at the moment.
Leg day.

First time i'm hearing about it. Sounds very cool! Would you mind sharing your setup and how it works?
Crossing my fingers it's based on the iron oxide 🤞
I also miss your wife
Agree - but i personally think there's a huge qualitative difference between selective breeding over long periods of time -- and then producing a fully artifical beef in a lab. One is a slow natural process with human intervention and the other is a fully synthetic process.
Nope, agriculture has existed for a looong long time. With that said, i try to limit my intake of food grown in conventional agriculture with pesticides and all that shit.
I'm not anti-technology on food per se. But i'm very sceptical whenever we introduce new foods or stuff to put into our bodies. It feels like 30 years passes and then the article "X is super fucking bad for you actually" comes out. So i try to limit myself to ingesting stuff that have existed for a long time - because at least then we know the long term effects of them.
Give my compliments to the chef of that fine insult.
