Whatever they’re watching, it’s fucking funny.

Tiktok afterwards please.

This is an exceptional write up, thanks!

I started with Mint and it was very simple to set up. I don’t really like the DE though (personal preference, I’ve used OSX for over 10 years). From your description it sounds like I can change Cinnamon to something else - is this fairly straightforward to do?

I’m looking to use the machine as a photo processing platform (from film and digital) and finding alternatives to Adobe products like Lightroom and Photoshop… with a view to ultimately having a NAS and cloud backup once I get to it.

Apologies for doubt. That’s absolutely bizarre.

Doubt. Which sites?

This is equal parts informative and hilarious. Ticketmaster sucks.

Thanks for taking me on a search journey… to appreciate Beth, and Portishead beyond Dummy. Please do recommend any specific highlights. I’ll be going through their (and her) albums now.

😂

Great reply. Respect.

Some people take longer to mature.

I know right. I wonder if there are any other words that are unexpectedly acronyms.

No worries. Thought it was a typo. Bizarre correction for it to make.

I third Mint. Very easy setup (just check your system is compatible before you try).

Also it’s ‘laser’ (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation).

Just my take but:

Like them or not (and IMV they are a serious threat), China’s system enforces a strategic view, long term, more like a 100yr plan.

We don’t. It’s by election cycle or quarterly earnings report.

These things all make more sense if you see them impassionately, and without an ethical filter, from a long term POV.

China will do what’s best for China in the long term. Irrespective of ‘politics’ that are like ripples upon a rising tide.

Electric jets? Is that a thing? How do they work?

And no ‘single push of a button’, the filthy casuals.

Depends where you are. I’ve grown up in that kind of culture and appreciated it - then moved somewhere where respect wasn’t given by default and you had to earn it. Same goes with trust, to some extent.

What could possibly go wrong?

It still needs a name and logo.

Index. Tell it like it is.

Mint Cinnamon was very straightforward for (a not very technical) me on a 2016 MacBook Air v7! Dual boot was a tiny bit trickier, but it’s given an old machine a new lease of life. Highly recommend.
