  • Windows 10 on a shitbox!!! You and I have very different definitions of that - lol. The ‘shitboxes’ I have (two of them) find it difficult to run even Windows 7, but Linux zooms on it like a breeze.

    I know the frustration though. I sometimes use cracked software - mostly for learning new stuff as a hobby (CAD programming, designing etc) and they come only on Windows, SOo…

    But these days free and open source have also come up so beautifully. FreeCAD is like this whole new thing entirely, so are LibreOffice, Inkscape, GIMP, LibreCAD, Scribus, Blender (never used this one though). Using LibreOffice has made it next to impossible for me to use MSOffice. But yes I do need that one or two shitty proprietary things because, just because…

    I actually did it. And I have abysmal knowledge of software but Linux is so fantastic. There isn’t one thing that I can’t do on it if it bothers me enough.

    And even the one proprietary software that I do have to use (for work, plz don’t ask) and comes only on Windows, works without flaw once I configure the WINE environment properly.

    Tried Debian, Manjaro, Linux Mint, MX linux and loved them all. They are all fantastic. Finally settled on Mint (I know) because it is the right balance of stable and updated for me.



  • You misunderstood me. I am not the least blaming Biden government for being complicit and not releasing the files. What I am saying is that they could have expedited the process knowing that there is a looming danger of Trump becoming the president and doing all the fuckery he is doing right about know.

    I absolutely know that his hands were tied, and that his regime was too ethical to not interfere in the matter. They could have been less so - so that justice could have been served. But, yes - that would have punched holes in litigating the wrong doers, and probably could have gotten off on technicalities.

    I guess - damned if you do, damned if you don’t.



  • Maybe Trump wanted to become the President so bad this time because he knew that the investigation was closing in on him. He was probably also egged on and helped by his other powerful bedfellows because they knew that Trump was their only chance.

    But the Biden government should have put all the foot to the pedal knowing this! God, what a missed opportunity for America to see Kamala Harris as their President. No joke, American missed its wonderful opportunity and so did the world.
