Alacritty because I like how it handles bitmap fonts and I need bitmap fonts in my life.

Comrades, I sincerely apologize for any psychic damage taken from being exposed to my fellow countryman’s takes

imagine not knowing that the wrong side won the civil war

They would be funny as fuck if they weren’t real and doing harm to people. I understand where you’re coming from though.

Yep. The red-scare brainworms are deeply rooted here, every boy has to go to the military to prepare for the inevitable day the russians come. It hasn’t really been taken very seriously for as long as I’ve lived, at least. Until now, I guess. A funny little cultural rite of passage meme where 18-year-olds get to fuck around with their bros in the woods for half a year. But tbh I never went myself, so I don’t really know what you actually learn there.

“40 soldiers and an old tractor” is what I assume is the portion of the conscripts who are actually ready and willing to fight, and didn’t just go there because they were expected to.

Yeah I’m getting serious tiny poodle vibes. Going “let me at em bro I swear to god bro I’ll fuck em up bro you’re lucky i’m on this leash aaaabark bark bark barkbarkabrkbark” at a pack of swole bears or something. We have like 40 soliders and maybe an old tractor somewhere. It’s a god damn suicide cult.

Mint is cool, linux is cool, and you are cool too. Enjoy

It does yeah, but not for applications running in XWayland. For example, I’m running a secondary 4k monitor with 1.5x scaling so it matches the other 1440p monitor. For native wayland applications, everything works just fine, but running an XWayland application on the 4k monitor will make it render at 1440p and become a blurry nasty mess. In KDE it will render in proper 4k (as if it was native a Wayland window), because they’ve somehow worked around that issue.

KDE’s VRR and XWayland fractional scaling implementations are pretty dope. Wlroots pls

I was at a wedding once and some random cool dude who sat next to me used the term “historical materialism” so that seemed pretty obvious.

I love arch and I’m incredibly biased, but here goes. I have used Arch exclusively for the past n years. All of the things you’ve mentioned will work great. The AUR absolutely rules. It’s rather similiar to Void in the sense that it’s a completely blank slate, so it’s going to be as unique an experience as you make it.

Arch is really stable and reliable as long as you don’t break it, really. Out of the handful of times I’ve fucked up my install, all of them have been my own fault. Fortunately Arch is (relatively) easy to fix: keep a live USB on hand and chroot into your physical drive with arch-chroot and unfuck whatever needs unfucking. I haven’t ever had to completely start over from scratch a single time. It’s a learning experience!

Go for it, I say. Try it in a VM beforehand if you gotta.

I am a large adult person and I legitimately hold these opinions. I understand it’s an extremely common reaction to immediately dismiss something as completely absurd nonsense when it contradicts your established world-view. I didn’t become a communist overnight because of spicy memes or to become edgy, but through years of educating myself on the matter. Communism as a concept has existed for a long time now, and it’s not going to go anywhere. I’d recommend you at least try to understand it, even though you’ll never agree with it.

I think it’s time to throw in the towel, comrade. Extremely good posting, though.

I’ve posted this same comment before I think, but I have to do it again: God damn do I wish I could go through life like this. Anything even remotely threatening to my world-view = bot, absolute drivel, automatic and instant disregard. A cozy little bubble where everything I believe is always good and right, and everything else is bots.

What does this even mean? Obviously Leninists are going to dislike opinions that are pro-imperialism, because Marxism-Leninism is inherently anti-imperialist. There are plenty of other opinions we dislike that are not related to imperialism at all. As principled communists we tend to be able and willing to explain why we disagree, though it’s tiring to have to explain the same things a million times to people who aren’t even really listening (thus the occasional pig-poop-balls). We’re only human. Try to keep an open mind and entertain the thought that our opinions might actually be sincere.

I wish I could go through life like this as well, damn. Never ever have to entertain the thought that maybe someone else’s wacky opinion is sincere and has a solid foundation to it, but nah man, it’s just a bot. Seems a lot less stressful.
