Nobara or Bazzite are your best Linux options for gaming. I’ve been on Nobara for over a year with nothing but good things to say about the distro and its community.

The metal subgenre?

Twin Peaks. Couldn’t stand it.

I totally understand. I was half joking with my comment. Hopefully this is just a case of all of us going down to the Winchester for a pint and waiting for this all to blow over.

Europe is dope though. Way better than this car infested, stroad-ridden, big box infested corporate dystopia we live in in North America.

I spent 8 months living and working in France and wonder why the hell I came back to NA every single day.

They “trust” me.

Dumb fucks.

“Why is Jim treating the magician poorly?” :/

Extol’s “Burial” is one of the greatest metal albums of all time, IMO

Antestor is another killer Christian metal band.

Why am I not surprised?

Same here. Left and never looked back.

As a Canadian, I spent eight months living in France a couple years ago. Had nothing but great experiences with people. I had one pharmacist be a little snooty with me. But other than that, they were very helpful regardless and very nice.

What I realized is that they place a lot of value in their native language and it’s very important to them to speak it clearly and properly whenever possible so they won’t usually hesitate to correct you.

The vast majority of people were stoked that we were speaking French at all. It’s really changed my perspective on the French language in my own country for the better, to be honest. I just get it now.

Same here.

Not for the capitalists running these companies.

On the left is Babyman, also known as Chickenman. He has two names because he’s either a babyman where he’s all cuddly and wants to be cozy or he’s a Chickenman because he looks like an uncooked chicken as he runs like a madman all over the house when he’s hyper.

On the right is Freyja. Typically goes by ‘Frey’, but when she’s in a hyper mood (which is extremely rare) we call her ‘Turbo Cylinder’ because she’s very tubular in shape at high speed.

You put sandbags in the bed of a truck to get more traction on the rear wheels for acceleration purposes. The sandbags in the bed are going to make your situation worse if you have to try and stop with no traction.

Literally right now. Mid 30s. I’ll be running my first marathon this year.

A bit harsh. I was left thinking deeper about the subject matter by the end. If that’s not the goal of this kind of writing then I don’t know what is. I enjoyed this read.

Good point. I’ve never seen it framed this way before. Poignant.

I can appreciate your viewpoint here, but there are a lot of good people in this world that are married to absolute scumbags.

Dude, thank you for this context. I was already aware of these considerations but just wanted to thank you for sharing this with everyone. Its participation like this that makes the internet a better place. 🍻
