Why not Fedora?

@Grumpy404 Go for Linux Mint. You really need stability.
So many Linux OSes are unstable and can take a very long time to repair.
Linux Mint has the best hardware support while the underlying package manager
is the most supported of the bunch and you can explore from there.

For beginners stay away from these, from bad to worse:

  • Controversial distros, Ubuntu and Manjaro (unfortunately, because I had fun using this)
  • Breakaway distros, NixOS
  • Niche distros, Red Star Linux, Alpine Linux, PostmarketOS, Artix, Hannah Montana Linux
  • Downsized or Abandoned distros, Slackware, Knoppix, OpenMandriva
  • Build-up distros, Arch Linux, Gentoo, Linux from Scratch
  • Any GNU distros, Trisquel, Devuan, Parabola, Guix

The default street dog which I happened to just learn last week is called a Pariah dog.

This news is a year old.
China very likely surpassed 1,250 GW at this moment.

Most lemmies are even more left-leaning than that.

You're in the wrong sublemmy.
This is where you ask questions.

 

Serious question out of sheer curiosity, but can't resist to add this silly comment below..

Asking for a friend.

Why would you ask th.....?
Ohhhhh... I get it. It's a rhetorical question.
Okay, so where's the button to turn this thing off?
You're not fooling me AI agent KI4JGT!

  • Capitalism
    • lack of policy to treat mental illnesses, like universal healthcare
    • easy access to guns
 

So that at the end of the doom scenario, the whole world turns into a giant computer just so the AI can solve a difficult puzzle?

Like someone already said in here,
I would say that the type of people that are "terrified" are the type that are "hyper-competitive".
They're extremely status minded and constantly want to tear people down to pull themselves up.
It's also why they're disgusted with non-manliness, which is not the same as gay in my opinion.
You can have a manly man who is gay and a girly man who is heterosexual.
Even making fun of acting tough behavior gets them into disgust.
You can't have fun with these people.

I do have to say, before I was in a relationship,
I would get annoyed if mistaken for gay and thus prefer to avoid any confusion.
I consider the dating market to be skewed in favor of women simply by the numbers
and anything to further pull down those chances was the last thing I needed.

 

With China's popularity rising, there has to come a point where a country's population decides to say:
"We need to follow a Marxist-Leninist model pronto if we want to remain a functioning society, because capitalism isn't working anymore."
Which country is gonna say it first?

My guess goes to..Pakistan

 

Mine is that since the US is turning more and and more into a scam economy, the problem then becomes that they'll eventually run out of other people's money.

The Soviet Union on the other hand had a near unsolvable fossil fuel issue crippling their economy.

 

I'm from the Netherlands.

"WEF Bilderberg globalist POS bankster" is the most accurate description I've ever heard of when imagining a center-right or liberal person.

 

Since four of the first five answers I've seen are so mild, let me give you what my list would include and tell me if I'm wrong or if I'm missing something:

  • Imprisonment and possessions seized for all those known to have committed child sexual abuse from the Epstein files
  • Imprisonment and possessions seized for all those related to Trump's corruption schemes which are:
    • Stealing oil from Venezuela
    • Insider trading during the current aggressive unprovoked full-scale genocide against Iran, Lebanon and possibly all nations in the Middle East, including US all allied nations in the Middle East except for Israel.
    • Cryptocoin frauds
  • Imprisonment and possessions seized for all those involved in war crimes
  • Designate all detractors of these demands as rape, murder, thievery, and pedophile protectors

  • Establishment of an independent Commission of Inquiry to investigate allegations of ICE brutality
  • Retraction of any designation for this protest made as anything other than peaceful
  • Release of every political arrest made during this protest and any protest prior that are still in prison with exception of the Jan 6th Capitol storming
  • Reimprisonment of every pardoned criminal during Trump's presidency

  • An amendment that abolishes the first past the post winner-takes-all system.
    • Instead it should have indirect elections to prevent campaign fraud (so you only elect local leaders, who elect those above them) and an approval voting system, but if that is deemed to radical here, then at least have initial proportional representation, with a majority amount of seats shuffled towards the winning coalition in order to prevent lame duck governance.
    • If indirect elections with approval voting is considered acceptable, I suggest that each for political position one must complete a civil exam created by an independent institution. Failing to pass will result into disqualification for that term's elections.
  • An amendment that guarantees all citizens, including prisoners universal basic income
  • An amendment that guarantees all citizens ownership of basic housing
  • An amendment that guarantees all citizens ownership a basic amount of land that can prove themselves to be Indigenous First Nations US-soil Native American
  • Rewrite the 13th amendment to abolish of slavery in prisons
  • An amendment that secures roaming rights by making any vagrancy and loitering law illegal
    • Have the amendment above include making it illegal to restrict access to gated communities. So no walking or driving around 10-meter-high, kilometer-wide walls.
  • Amendment that guarantees continuous slower traffic paths through faster traffic paths, so walkways > bike lanes > roads.

  • Repeal the Patriot Act
  • Universal Health Care
  • Nationalize all casinos except those owned by native Americans
  • End all sanctions and embargoes on other countries
  • Close down the Board of Peace
  • Close down all ICE death camps
