As others have said, the general rule is simple: if it no longer runs what you want it to run, upgrade.
For example, I have an Nvidia RTX 2060 GPU. It’s no longer that new, it’s like 5+ years old at this point. But most of the games I play are at least 10 years old—I think the newest, and most graphically intense, game I own is Cyberpunk 2077—and my GPU runs them just fine.
So, why would I spend hundreds of dollars on a new GPU when it’s still wholly functional for my needs?
It’s not okay for management to do that either. The devs don’t need asshole customers doing it too.
Looks like they invented a new way to doxx people!
Does it still exist, and can it be implemented client-side? That sounds really cool!
Ooh that’s a good point. I mean, not Linux Mint because as thanksforallthefish said below it’s not a Mint-supported DE but I actually installed Arch (btw) with the KDE Plasma DE onto an old laptop I have and yeah it definitely gives early-2010s OS X vibes. :)
I hate GNOME because it feels like an iPhone.
That’s fair.
I don’t know much about what Ubuntu is doing but it surely can’t be that bad.
You would be surprised.
Yeah…
See, I used to like Ubuntu, but then Canonical had to ruin it for me by betraying the principles that Linux stands for.
Ubuntu is a shadow of its former self, and it saddens me. :(
You know, I can see that.
Still, mac users use macs because they just want the computer to work.
And the Cosmic DE is rather new so can be a bit buggy from time to time. It might look mac-friendly, but its stability is still largely untested so caution may be advised before recommending it in my opinion.
Can confirm. I’ve used FitGirl for years and countless games and have never once had an issue with malware. She seems pretty reliable on that front.
Ubuntu is heresy. Canonical hath turned against the users.
Also, I’m genuinely curious: why do you hate GNOME?
They didn’t say beeteedubs so clearly not.
If she’s a Windows refugee, Linux Mint.
If she’s a Mac refugee, fuck if I know.
If she’s a IBM OS/2 refugee, please let me know how to get the drugs she’s gotten. I want in.
I will now respond with a single word:
Dafuq?
While I agree with everything else you said, I would like to specifically respond to the following part:
Maybe he is considering not everyone is an adult on the platform.
God forbid a child hears the words “shit”, “ass”, or “fuck”. 1) That’s not the end of the world, no matter what conservative parents groups would like people to think, and 2) I guarantee you that 99.999% of children have heard at least 2 out of 3 of those words from television, movies, and elsewhere on the Internet. It’s a word, nothing more, and not that big of a deal.
Again, though, I would like to repeat that I agree with what else you said. I just wanted to respond to this particular part.
Have a great day!
She convinces him to get a Prince Albert piercing. They have some kind of falling out and she tears it out with her teeth next time she’s going down on him.
Oh my gods that sounds so fucken painful
Probably like 2–3 years ago I switched from Plex to Emby because the Plex app on my TV was becoming bloated and slow.
Even back then my TV was hitting 5 years old and still working great. Why the hell should I be forced to scrap a perfectly good television just because some corpo wants to ship overly bloated apps with too many animations?
Sorry for the late reply (it’s been a busy week at work), but yeah, unfortunately, not all software supports that method. For instance, it doesn’t seem to work on Matrix when using either Element (desktop) or FluffyChat (Android). So, I just got into the habit of do it that way everywhere because at least most places seem to support it. Lol.

test.
Because there doesn’t seem to be any other way to have line breaks show up. Lol.
See? This line is actually separated after the above one by two lines.
It’s a shame if he never did anything with it, but thanks for going into detail! :D
