If that was pretentious, I must be some kind of stuck up asshole

That sounds nice and all, but is useless as a definition. The way I see it used, wisdom is knowledge and intuition that is gained from experience, whereas intelligence is a property of a person that allows them to learn quickly.

I love that they keep saying stuff like "introducing Ubuntu to the Christian community", as if they couldn't already use it.

When you hit the windows key (aka meta-key or super-key) it brings up the app launcher. You get a dock at the bottom with pinned or running apps (like a taskbar), and all of your open windows are presented in a sort of mini-version that lets you switch between them or move them between workspaces. There is a search bar that you can immediately type into to open any app with a .desktop file. There is also a button to bring up the app grid which shows your apps kind of like a mobile device's home screen.

Not having a dock is one of my favorite things about gnome. I actually use an extension to hide the top bar too. There's just something so satisfying about having 100% usable space on screen. I get all the info back in the win-key overlay, so I don't really need that stuff on screen at all times.

Does this not work?

I think you can do the same in the post

That solution isn't really a solution.

The minimum cost to live in each jurisdiction

There is no clear objective way to measure that. The absolute minimum to stay alive would technically be just enough for the single cheapest available food, and just enough water to avoid death (maybe not even that, if it's legal to just drink out of a river). I'm sure that's not what you meant. But anything beyond that has to consider the incredibly subjective quality of life question. So what you propose is really just a goal, not an actionable policy.

If you can impose a fine you are a jurisdiction and it is your responsibility to implement

That's a way bigger headache than I think you realize. At any location in the country, you could be fined by the federal gov, state gov, other states if you do business there, multiple levels of local gov (county, city, etc.), even your HOA might be able to fine you. But that all depends on thousands of existing laws and precedents.

Why would any milk fat be required for something to be defined as chocolate? Chocolate doesn't have to contain any milk at all. The only thing my brief research turned up was this, stating that they could only contain up to 5% non cocoa vegetable fats.

Edit: This claims there is a minimum milk fat for milk chocolate, but no requirement for chocolate in general.

What the hell are you talking about? Nowhere in the Constitution is a response to disease even mentioned. It sure doesn't mention anything about bombing cities. The Constitution has been interpreted very loosely to allow the government the powers it has now, but bombing US cities is beyond the scope of even that. The idea that they have a constitutional duty to do so is even more absurd.

The Constitution is an actual thing, you know. You could read it instead of just making stuff up.

It's easier than you think. You can just download an exe, point lutris/steam to it (ie, just paste the path into the gui), and run the game. I have yet to find a game that doesn't work. Troubleshooting is rare, and in my experience only involves changing proton versions. I have never had to mess with drivers, aside from initial installation when I installed the OS.
