the British navy is in that bad a state?


yeah, the US is burning so much good will, it’s insane


thank you, I am giving you a smiley face back: :)


ah, duh, yeah - the share shrunk but the pie grew so it’s still a bit more cake


“real GDP per capita more than doubled in this time period which means consumer spending also doubled”
GDP measures a lot of things that are not consumer spending.


I wonder how effective it could be to infiltrate those organizations that scrutinized votes the last election - yeah, they were pro Trump, but I also think they had a lot of people who were genuinely worried about cheating


The sad thing is that they just might. The Brits (and the rest of Europe) need lower energy prices


yeah, I was very pleased to spot some libertarians the other day, dunno if they felt the same :)
Yeah, that does suck. I usually check GOG first for a Linux version, and if it doesn’t exist I buy the game on Steam.
yeah no, I can’t really disagree with that. I also don’t feel like re-watching any of his movies - in fact i was interrupted in the middle of Oppenheimer, and don’t even feel like finishing it
I’ve used old computers for phasing out certain social networks - e.g. I’d block Facebook on my main computers, and only access it on my old laptop. That’s been quite effective. You could do that, and just use Linux Mint or Xubuntu on that old laptop. Very real learning necessary, and you do manage to break it somehow, it’s not a big deal.
For me, as someone who’s not into esports-games, I just expect games to work on Linux now, and they nearly always do. The exception has been a couple of old or obscure titles that run fine in a virtual machine. I’m not running any fancy version of Linux, just Mint, and the only thing I do to get them to work, is install them on Steam. Proton is amazing.
If you are into esports-games, though, there’s a risk that they’ll require kernel-level anticheat, and Linux does not do that.
Exactly. And the style, while it’s pretty and cool looking, works together with the paper-thin characters to give this introspective muffled and artificial feel to all of his works.
I kind of find the gimmicks to be the most enjoyable parts of his movies. They’re also very pretty.
Good question, it’s a lot easier to be negative. I enjoy Tarantino movies, A more high brow movie I liked is The Act of Killing, I liked the HBO series The Deuce, ehm… this is hard.
Nolan movies are mid


I’ve heard poor voters are often swing voters, and possibly likely to swing against him
They did use Mint in a previous video, and in the comment field on Youtube there’s rumors he’ll be trying Kubuntu since Pop was so buggy.
I guess the big question is how customizable this will end up being - all the arguments against it seem to assume there’s just an on-off switch, and that seems pretty stupid as anything but a tech demo.
