ehhh, unfortunately I've met more than my fair share of people who unironically like Stalin.

Lots of actually good communist figures out there and they go out of their way to choose the homophobic drunk domestic abuser who kept a literal child rapist as his right-hand man.

I agree, I never really liked Metro and the minimalism of Material design doesn't vibe with me either. It's mostly a personal taste thing though, I know several others who do like minimalism.

About it being weird to be nostalgic for Windows 7, it's not to me, but I think it has to do with how it was the last OS I used that didn't involve either several awful bugs to the point of unusability (Windows 10) or requiring extensive knowledge of how the system works (Linux) to daily-drive it; so I guess I look at it fondly as the last time I was "computer-innocent", so to say.

I get what you mean. I used Vista from sometime around 2011-2013, and even though it was slow, I always thought it was really beautiful and still have fond memories of it.

I just hope the Citra forks won't be targeted. Citra was only killed as collateral damage, but I still can't help but be nervous anyway...

I have had a LOT of issues, but they're mostly of the papercut variety - and most of them have to do with Plasma 6 rather than Fedora 40 itself (at least I think so).

I think my CPU is running hotter on 40 than it was on 39, though.

I'll never forget Scatman John due to how prevalent his songs were on SM64 bloopers from the old days of Youtube.

oof, I didn't know Carrefour was complicit in the Gaza stuff 😓

I hate the heat so much.

These guys just... wake up and think to themselves "what is the most comically evil cartoon villain thing I can do to hurt others today?". Surreal.

I still like them, honestly...

Reading these comments is making me sweat nervously because I made an 80s-themed submod for a racing game with era-appropriate metal music, and it seems that a decent chunk of the bands I chose for the soundtrack turned out to be fascist or fascist-sympathizing 😓
