Me too. The funny thing is that in the country where I live (South Korea), if you type their band name into the search bar you get greeted with a suicide awareness message.

I got “Never stop thinking about the thing with which you think.” It has gotten me far.

Man. Country used to be cool. Like John Prine, Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie. Not these bootlicking slop shovelers we see these days.

This gives strong Wildcat energy. Ever read those?

I once met an AWB member. Actual quote: “We don’t hate racial slur. Don’t think we hate racial slur.” Just as casual as talking about a cup of tea.

I’m on Cachy myself, but I have put in a lot of time with vanilla Arch. Cachy has an easier installation process, although the archinstall script is also quite simple to use. Cachy takes better advantage of your specific hardware, so it’s good for squeezing a bit more performance out of your machine. Arch is more bare-bones, the idea being that you get to and have to customize it yourself, from near the ground up. It’s a matter of use case and temperament, really. Both are good, and the differences aren’t huge in the end.

Somehow, this is generally considered to be a radical position.

And only one of these categories is inherently theft.

Pat Finnerty, anyone?

It Takes Two, or Split Fiction, by the same developers. Both are fantastic games, designed around couch co-op.

Honestly, I didn’t report it. I just ducked out. Since I seemed to be the only concerned party, I assumed the mods wouldn’t care.

I’m reading The Ax, by Donald Westlake, in preparation for watching No Other Choice. I’m really enjoying it so far. It’s nice anticapitalist goodness.

Yeah, it’s pretty bizarre. Regardless of the intended level of irony, it’s a very bad joke, in all senses of the word ‘bad’.

Yeah, it’s a bummer. Why must they come for everything we like?

Yeah, I read that he was a nepo baby. Also, people say “But he dropped out of university to start Microsoft.”

He dropped out of fucking Harvard. His life was easy as piss from the get-go.

Yeah. He has shaped the world in very negative ways through his decisions. He could donate his entire fortune today and live out the rest of his life in a monastery, but I would still hate him.

Wonderful; thanks for sharing. I’ll check him out this weekend.

Very well put. I cannot stand the entitlement in the original letter.

Fair point. It’s not an excuse, but it does explain a lot. Nobody is the villain in their own story, after all.
