What an absurdly sycophantic graph.

I never knew B&T to say that phrase. Their faves were always “Party on, dudes” and the like.

I’m pretty sure Wayne’s World skit on SNL in the mid 80’s is where the phrase was born.

Ah, a change.org petition . I eagerly await the sweeping improvements to life abroad.

I think this is suitable here.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Twitter is pushing it due to it being proven that outrage boosts engagement. Facebook has been doing that for years.

Removing applications are as straightforwards as "sudo apt purge packagename ". Using purge instead of remove will remove any configuration files associated with the package.

If you don’t like the terminal, just search the app in the application manager and remove it there.

Regarding your subject title, the apps you’re talking about don’t break mint if they’re missing. They’re usability applications, not libraries or drivers.

Could you tell me what would be lacking? There’s a surprising amount of bells and whistle s you can add to the setup. Check out bunsenlabs distro for an example.

It looks like its goal is to make everything less comfortable, not more.

I love OB with tint2 and conky , no de needed.

Its not weird to you and as you said, nothing untoward is occurring so I don’t see a reason to stop. I wouldn’t share with peers though for obvious reasons. The small-minded would have a field day.

Does randomizing your MAC create any usability issues? Needing to log in repeatedly, getting bumped off network due to looking like a different device, anything else hindering usability?

That’s the only mention I’ve found so far but will reply to you if I manage to find something else regarding it.

This is what I read in another community:

Linux Mint currently ships with the Linux 6.8 kernel. More importantly, Mint will now follow Ubuntu’s Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel series so Mint can work on the latest machines. This also removes the confusion of the “Edge ISO” as this affects all Mint 22 users.

Your story basically mimics mine. Guitar and drums, always wanted to play with others but at 50 years old, I jam every day by myself at home.

Other than about 6 months in my 20s, I’ve not played music with others. I want to but I don’t interact with others and the thought of trying to is overwhelming.

I hope you overcome your aversion. The 6 months I did jam with others was magical.

Also, is the update for the Edge ISO as well?

It stated in the announcement that they are sunsetting the edge iso as it’s no longer needed.

What a great ad.

Which is why I said “linux as a whole”. Many distros will try to undo the nerdery and neckbeardism that is built into the parent distros but as a whole, linux is going to always be less welcoming to a new user than someone that’s used to useless warnings and repeated password entries for elevated privileges. Being safer and being new-user-friendly rarely go hand in hand.
