Stop forcing Wayland into everything! Wayland just isn’t ready for this yet. My workflow requires five hopperclocks with different timings hooked up to an RS-snorlatch and inverse T-flip-flop. Wayland just doesn’t support that, and there are no signs that it ever will. I’ll stick with vanilla redstone, thank you very much.

Not only is it insane, it is also incredibly egotistical of people to think that whatever god might exist will help them when it didn’t lift a finger to prevent some of the most horrible things that have happened in history; the trans-atlantic slave trade and the holocaust being prime examples.

And, because I can already feel a religious person typing “bUt ThOsE wERe dOnE By huMaNs” yes, how observent of you, but accordng to your primary (and only) source for your god’s existance, it did intervene when humans were building a big tower. And also killed all the babies of Egypt because their leader refused to listen. And I’d argue that the holocaust and slave trade are much worse than humans building a tower.

Certainly a slop quality update

IIRC, When a staff of the magi snaps, it explodes. So the party will die either way. You’re just gonna have to decide whether you want a shiny item or not :P

Very much untrue. I do not understand for the life of me how something so gross can be compared the the fine taste of dick

It is funny though (especially for me as a Dutchman)

Or just a flyer that reads something along the lines of: “If these were bombs, Putin would have failed you. Thankfully, we are more civilised than that”

I think the other comments mean well, but are perhaps already too technical given that your current knowledge is “it’s mascot is a penguin and I think it has something to do with programming.”

Linux is an operating system (OS) on computers. OS’s are what allow you to actually use it. Most computers come with Windows, which gives you a taskbar, a start menu, and several programmes that you can use like Edge to browse the internet, Paint for basic image manipulation, etc. Of course, you can download more software from the internet to use on your OS.

Another well-known OS is Mac, the OS that apple computers and laptops use. As you may know, it looks and works somewhat differently from Windows, but it has the same basics with a taskbar (though it might have a different name, idk because I don’t use Mac), Safari to browse the internet, etc.

Linux is, like Mac and Windows, an OS. But there are some major differences. Mac and Windows are developed by a single entity, Apple and Microsoft respectively. This means you have very little difference between systems developed by them. Sure Windows 7 and 11 look very different, but actually using them is very similar. Also, (almost) everything that is included in the OS is developed by their respective companies. Linux, in contrast, is highly modular. The kernel (the OS’s bedrock) is developed by a single, open source project, but that does not give you a full OS. There are many different projects that combine other software to build a full desktop OS. These are called distributions, or “distro’s” for short. They can give you a familliar taskbar, desktop icons, and base software to navigate the internet and your files. But they may also take a wildly different approach! I’ll leave those for you to discover if Linux intrigues you ;)

Anyway, Linux is often associated with programming because it is much more cusomizable than Windows and Mac. Programmers often like tweaking things to their liking, which is why they are more likely to be interested in Linux. However, you don’t necessarily need to know how to code in order to use Linux (though, if you want to learn, Linux had a lot of good tools). My mother is in her 60’s and I’ve set up Linux for her on her laptop. We set it up to her liking, verified that the printer worked, and she’s been using it since with no issue.

To add some final remarks: Linux is not developed by a massive corporation. It is the biggest open-source project in the world! This means that anyone who wishes can see the code of the OS - so anyone can verify that they are not spying on you or stealing your data. It is also free to use for everyone (with some Enterprise exceptions).

In essence, Linux offers you a different way of using your computer, free of charge! If you would like to try technical things, it’s a great place to start. I would recommend trying out a dual-boot (meaning you have both Linux and Windows installed) to see if you like it. As for distribution recommendations: Linux Mint and Fedora (KDE edition) are highly recommended for beginners and professionals alike! ZorinOS is also often touted as a great introduction for people used to Windows.

Finally, should you even bother? Well, I don’t know what it’s like being 50, but personally I’m not convinced that an old dog cannot learn new tricks. Best of luck!

Might give it another go, but the first 30 minutes or so did not interest me at all tbh. Like I get what it is parodying, and I appreciate it in a creative sense, but it’s just a bit much for my taste.

Thank you for this incredibly sweet share, Comrade Sharkfucker
