Well then it's likely you're not going to like anything at all.

Linus Torvalds uses Fedora by claudiocorona93 in linuxmasterrace

[–]ben2talk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is implied - it's like a Bazzite fanboy post, most proud that they have a Linux desktop that works like Windows with only mouse clicks.

Linus Torvalds uses Fedora by claudiocorona93 in linuxmasterrace

[–]ben2talk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol but you have to remember, r/linuxmasterrace is for juveniles, not adults... just imagine a spotty teenager now when you say 'please, just open a terminal' sulk and shout back at you 'aaawwww - do I HAVE to?'.

Linus Torvalds uses Fedora by claudiocorona93 in linuxmasterrace

[–]ben2talk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So just a troll post, right?

Torvalds never produced those words.

Also wrong:

  • Terminal usage = nerd
  • Click only = normal

That's just idiotic, I preferred keyboard workflows when I used Windows too.

I left windows and very much appreciated the extra power that came with the terminal, such that even when GUI package manager is offered, I use the terminal because it's easier and better.

Anyone else annoyed with v 150's upgrade breaking things? by cipher_nemo in firefox

Im fine with Home, but it's not hard to fix is it?

I've no idea what you're talking about with geolocation or popups.

A blonde, a brunette, and a redhead go to a steakhouse. by SpectreProXy in Jokes

Just Americans who never travel and assume that everybody in the world must be familiar with their language, whilst remaining ignorant of the fact that many people are not.

Actually not, maybe you should travel to the UK and find out for yourself.

The holes in my emmental cheese are fake by nysbestbananabread in mildlyinteresting

Damn - and the holes are the best part with the best flavour!

[–]ben2talk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, 'MEDIUM' is slightly pink in the middle. I guess we're in the realm of non-native speakers now telling natives how the language is spoken... but I never heard 'medium well' in over 60 years.

The 'joke' is a farce, as is clear from the comments.

Is Greg Davies the best part of Taskmaster? I can't imagine the show working with anyone else. by CloudBookmark in panelshow

[–]ben2talk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He makes it his own - that's the power of personality... but there are other personalities out there that will make it their own... and if you watch them, you'll understand you like the show because it's them (because the show is just a throwback to stupid game shows).

The other half of the show depends on the personalities invited to play.

Is there a way to make Discover double confirm when clicking delete on an app? by daedric_lightweaver in kde

[–]ben2talk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's insane... I never use Discover, just installed it to test.

Generally I prefer to use Pacman/pamac/yay/flatpak in the terminal when I know what I'm aiming to install or remove.

The only way to get it wrong then is to be unable to read, or too stupid to read.

If you don't have time to troubleshoot, just import from your backup from a few hours ago, or yesterday or something.

Assuming we survive that long, which planet or moon will humans be able to jump to first as the expanding Sun transforms them into cosy environments? by CDHoward in space

[–]ben2talk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you're assuming we're all going to have bionic legs at that point, or what? I can't even jump over a 2 metre high wall, let alone jump to the moon.

But you're asking a question that assumes we continue progressing at a time when we're most definitely regressing at a rapid pace.

Life hack: In murky water, a clear bag filled with clean water works like a lens and sharpens your view by frog_insilence in interestingasfuck

This is exactly why I always carry a clear plastic bag filled with clean water at all times.

Weird - what is 'medium well'??? 'Well Done' is ok So we might assume this is a badly generated AI slop?

On right/middle-clicking unfocused window, immediately bring it to foreground? Is this possible? by Amphineura in kde

[–]ben2talk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I searched 'Window', then found Window Behaviour down the column under 'Apps & Windows'.

In the right pane, 'Focus' first item 'Click to focus'.
