Lol, touche. Unless you include how to “unbreak” every single windows update, but even those resources are growing ever more seldom. Thanks for the explanation. I think I remember hearing about pop during the great steam Linux supportathon a few years back. I held off since the video card support wasn’t quite ironed out of something like that and haven’t checked back.

Lol, thought I was replying to a different comment, my bad 😆

Please accept my apologies 🙏

I’m not unhinged, more or less

Unfortunately the “horror” that is windows persists almost as much as the horror of Linux. Which is a bunch of fanbois crowing about their distro without any explanation at all. But why do they do this? Because that’s how they got into it, and that’s how the people that got them into it got into it.

Which fucking distro should I use?
- Well, really it’s just preference.

Then I choose arch.
- Uh, wrong try again lol.

Fair enough, Which fucking distro should I use?
- Well, really it’s whatever works for you.

Okay, I didn’t like the feel of that one.
- Well, you were using the wrong desktop environment.

😐😑😤😠… …Which fucking desktop environment should I use?
- Well, really it’s just preference.

🤬. 🤬🤬, 🤬. 🤬.
- Look clearly you don’t know what you’re doing just use Ubuntu, or Kubuntu, or Lubuntu, or Xubuntu, or Fubuntu, or Poobuntu, or Schmubuntu. And with cinnamon obvi.

Well how do I know? The site for each one uses the exact same bloviated claims. They’re all feature rich, and lightweight, and extended support, etc. Do I have to install them all to find out?
- Yes but that’s impossible. So just use mine, it works.

Until it doesn’t. Then you need to hit up Linux self help forums, to get help from Linux bros, who are the most detestable group of unhelpful, impatient, and pretentious neckbeards imaginable. “Did you try searching first?” “Just use our discord!” “Just use [my fucking distro!]”

😖🤯👺

FML

The comments seem to be missing the fact that elections are state run, so if he is allowed to run a third time, it won’t be him that broke the law it will be the states and their reps.

I’m not disagreeing with that, I think you’re missing the point being made. The point is that we may not know that there might be more to it. That is all.

Even if so, I believe that still doesn’t inherently mean it would be accessible by the public.

I 💯 agree.

And I’ll dip my toe again. Top notch shilling 😆

Ugh, I’m so burned out on trying freecad, getting nowhere, nothing is straightforward or intuitive, watching hours of tutorials doing nothing you want to do with it, spending hours trying to figure it out, best attempt ever was not much more than a few basic shapes…

Fuck autodesk all day, every day, but here’s fusion:

• create parameters with the giant fucking f(x) button
• create sketch with parameters by selecting literally any sketch function
• extrude from sketch and modify body and faces
• rinse and motherfucking repeat

Until freecad can claim to at the very least offer an equally simple workflow, no thanks. I’d rather use blender.

Seriously, Trump didn’t kill diplomacy, it lives because everyone else still has it. If anyone knows anything about US history they would know that refusing to “make a deal” with the US is the best possible outcome. That’s all I looked for in this article. Please tell me the natives did not actually trust cpt fucking cook…

Before being invited to an interview on RT, even Alex Jones said Trump was “too mobbed up with the russians”… Of course it would take a moron like trump to make AJ right about anything…

😋

Don’t tell me what I can and can’t do. You’re not my supervisor.

Well now there’s a ten dollar word if I’ve ever seen one.

Slips scrabble back to the top…

It’s things like this that make it very difficult for me to tell my right wing shit head friends that spreading misinformation is exclusive to right wing shit heads. There are absolutely left wing shit heads who will spread any unsupported allegation that supports their own bias with no regard for integrity at all.

So thanks for having the integrity that others willfully lack, even if you only get to a few. You are a force for good in a kiddy pool of pee.

Filthy centrists.

I mean, yes and yes, but unfortunately yes. It’s possible for a capitalist shit stain to be worse than a capitalist pee stain, even if only by a near indiscernible margin. Which mattress would you rather??

Lol, thanks! But no worries. I have no illusions about where I am. I’m a dog in a pile of one denigrating the subject of a post honoring a recently deceased abstract artist. I’m literally speaking ill of the dead - albeit a transcendental meditation-ist.

A cult classic cultist! A man who could worship a pyramid as effortlessly as he could scheme one!! He came here to do things, film and fleece, and he’s all out of [time]. 😂

If I wanted to get upvoted I would just do what every other respectable Lynch fan does and simply post a respectful, “He had emphysema…”

Lol,

direct choice? 🤷

inability? 💁

Seriously though, what’s the difference? If the end result is identical does it really matter what we label it? Whether he can’t or won’t conclude anything doesn’t really matter. Either way, he doesn’t.

And I’m glad you can appreciate those things. To me, it’s still a load of cleft asshole claptrap parading in a human skin suit of, “you just don’t get it, and I’m not going to explain it (without a heavy application of ‘magic’).” Movies like 2001 get a pass because they are almost indiscernibly linear and would be making a neck breaking heal-turn were they to end linearly any other way than the way they did.

But season one of twin peaks has not much more than a passing glance from complete focus on linearity. Even the parts that abstract from reality conform to the convention of a linear narrative. So, fine, season one is telling a story that is at least a narrative miniseries and at best a cynical critique of rural life in the northwest. Even though they show little intention of revealing major questions introduced of the plot by the end, they still demonstrate unwavering dedication to a linear style.

And I get that season two and the myriad network blunders combine to describe a project that is nothing if not needlessly nuanced (I don’t think any two words have ever more accurately described how I feel about David fucking Lynch 😆), but the fact remains and evidenced by lynch himself that he had a greater creative influence in the direction of the plot in season two than he did in season one. Even considering the episodes he had no credit in, at the very least he has claimed that he had more influence.

He shows absolutely no sign of deviation from this narrative method in his further works, so I have a hard time believing that poor little davey was merely a victim of Mr Frost’s incomprehensibly abstract direction. I would argue he leans in a bit more without frost at all.

And, finales are usually the highest rated episodes in a season, so in a two season release with two season finales, one of those finales being outside the top two is telling more of the story than lynch ever did. 🤭

Otherwise, everything else you’ve said is something I either agree with, am wrong about, or won’t dignify. But I really enjoyed reading it nevertheless. You’re obviously far more familiar with him and his works than I am and my frivolous accusations carry little water. But I tried my best! Thanks

Completely agree. Everyone loves to credit lynch for twin peaks success but it was frost who would let lynch off the leash in season 1. But halfway through season 2, lynch gives you both barrels and it sucks.

He’s done some good things, but in my opinion, at the end of the day lynch is just another artist who doesn’t always tell a complete story and pretends like this inability is some sort of gift to the viewer.

He’s like the Papa Murphy’s of storytellers. Here’s the ingredients, now you figure it out. And you’re welcome.

Not sure if serious, but the clown’s name is “Pennywise” from the tv movie adaptation of Stephen King’s novel, It. Though “It” refers to the creature, the clown that it primarily takes the form of is named, Pennywise.
