I thought we were using potatoes so we didn’t have to waste eggs!

I’m really disappointed that the transcription didn’t follow through with this spelling

It’s definitely not jank. Huge fan of mine as well as some other folks here. Fw13 with AMD.

Are we completely ignoring the right wing echo chamber on social media and cable news? I’ve encountered no shortage of people who have been completely sucked into that world and buy into the bullshit. Not all of them are innately evil, but their candidate of choice certainly is

I’m really excited about how great KDE has become in recent years. It was getting scary back when KDE4 had lots of problems and gnome3 was devoid of all functionality. Nowadays KDE makes the Linux desktop truly a pleasure to use.

It’s spreading so fast in my area that people are actually testing again just so they know what they’re dealing with

I tried new outlook once and it was such a fucking disaster I’m still shaking from it 6 months later. It was also a giant pain to go back to classic.
