I setup Debian with MATE for a friend who had only used Window$ and had little to none technical knowledge, then setup cronjobs for 1) upgrading all installed packages 2) her data to be rsynced between the two built-in SSDs. It’s been a year now, she has asked for help only twice, both of them involving complex third-party software.
I’m pretty sure that he would use KolibriOS.
I find Estonia’s flag pretty cool tbh
Didn’t you mean complex carbs?
Is it really made in Spain ? I’m pretty tired of the ‘Designed in Germany…Made in China’ / ‘Responsibly made in PRC with Swiss technology’ macro-bullshit.
I lost every ounce of respect and admiration I had for this man after he sold the franchise to Disney.
Given that one of the most popular Scheme implementations is Chicken Scheme (Chicken for short), there is a non-zero chance of actual job offerings asking for ‘experience in Chicken’.
Kinda his fault for using Window$ tbh
It’s != its.
Again: stock is property. Arguing that the only reason to invest in stocks is getting money out of it by selling later at a higher price would be like saying that people buy apartments/land/metals solely for future financial gain.
…and even if one doesn’t buy that argument, there’s the concept of hedging, which is far enough from the concept of speculation to consider it its opposite.
Not *quite. A (common) stock is nothing more than a certificate of ownership of part of a company. In theory, the value of that capital should increase over time, plus you hopefully get dividends regularly. Again - it’s ownership, so that means that you could, in principle, hold that instrument ‘forever’ (just like you would, say, a piece of land), never planning to sell it back, and therefore not giving a single fck about its current or future price.
‘may’ ? That’s a good one. As if that wasn’t the plan all along.
These are not ‘investors’, but speculators.
Not in Gringoland, nope. Union-busting behaviour is routine there. Something that is well documented and studied.
BTW: great username!
You’re kind of missing the point here. Someone who considers himself a leader (even remotely) should be able to effortlessly start casual conversation (a long forgotten art by any metric) with people around him. Otherwise, he is just yet another corporate hoe getting paid for writing about and presenting subjects he knows nothing about.
Not on the same level of self-unawareness, but I once sat on an intercontinental flight with a dude beside me whose only (pre)occupation for 11 hours straight (!) was to write a keynote about leadership. Not once did he even look at me or the person sitting on his right side, let alone interact with us. I was like. Dude. TF would you ever know about leadership which is…you know…90% knowing how to actually interact with people ?
Fair enough, but do they need/want an ad blocker ?
…what started off as a legitimate question has now become an extremely interesting (and amusing) social experiment. Keep the nonsensical, non-scientific answers coming, folks.
Who the fucking fuck still uses stock Chrome in 2026, chrissakes.
You forgot about the civilised ones who use bidets.

It is deliberate.

What are the most convincing arguments both for and against the existence of an allmighty God?
In ‘The Three Body Problem’, we see a prominent scholar and professor being publicly beaten by the communist party for not denying God’s existence. He goes on to say that ‘Science hasn’t provided any definitive answer’. So I’m curious,
