Debian works too, it really doesn’t matter as long as its not windows and google Chromebook crap.

Linux distros aren’t all made the same, but they’re all pretty much the same in spirit. Tux is universal.

I personally think that Pop!OS is a user friendly distro that would be an easy introduction to Linux for students while also focusing on privacy and security with less clutter.

Whatever that means, since it’s inception the quarter has always had a bust on top and an eagle on the tail side. This post is madness.

Pop!OS is an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution featuring a custom GNOME desktop.

It is designed to have a minimal amount of clutter on the desktop without distractions in order to allow the user to focus on work.

This distro was also designed with security and privacy in mind.

So students can more easily focus on their work while also being more secure and private while using an easy to use interface, I know it’s not the only one but its a good one!

I bring it up all the time, the early days of the internet were raw. 2 girls 1 cup was right around that time too

Fuck chromebooks anyways, Google shouldn’t be allowed to steal so much information about our youth directly from the devices they use at school. They should be using laptops with Linux installed on them, preferably PopOS to preserve the kids privacy.

I don’t condone damaging school property, although I think it’s a lesser evil to Google’s privacy practices on Chromebooks.

What’s the problem? I don’t see it.

The meme is deep

That would be DHL lol

“Francis appointed nearly 80% of the cardinal electors who will choose the next pope, increasing the possibility that his successor will continue his progressive policies, despite the strong pushback from traditionalists.”

I largely don’t agree with this, I played chess (Battle Chess) as a kid, I wasnt the best at chess but I had fun. I hadn’t played it in over 15+ years.

My coworker plays chess on a regular basis, against other players and against the computer at 1,700. He knows quite a few strategies that I never bothered to ask what they entailed, which is a part of your point, but I just play off of the moves I see on the board, I don’t know any technical moves or strategies other than checkmate the king, castling, and en passant.

I literally wing it every time and my opponent is always thinking about future moves to try and destroy me. Our matches include blunders and typically end up with only a couple pieces left on the board. Its such a fun experience when it’s played without expectation and you’re relying on pure personal strategy in real time.

I’ve won twice In a row now. Its usually back and forth

Unlike common talking points, crypto does rely on and follow the traditional markets. Its not really a hedge against them.

Its the internet, us pretentious blowhards are everywhere.

Those lifesaving chemicals are not what they’re putting in our food.

TBHQ certainly isnt a lifesaving chemical. It shouldn’t even be in our bodies its a petroleum based product that contributes to a whole host of problems in our bodies.

I’ll admit my statement on lethality is misguided when considering naturally occurring chemicals, the point that I’m making is that the shit synthetic chemicals that are put into our foods are accepted because they’re “within acceptable levels” when they shouldn’t be in our food at all considering the long term effects weren’t known when they were introduced into our food and now we are experiencing the health impacts. You are what you eat and cancer is booming.

Synthetic sugar isn’t good for you. Naturally occurring sugar in food is good for you and everything in moderation.

Hence why we have…obesity and diabetes.

We need oxygen and water to live that’s conflating natural and synthetic chemicals which are completely different.

While all chemicals have a theshold of toxicity regardless if they’re natural or synthetic, some natural chemicals we rely on to survive as opposed to synthetic chemicals which in the food industry only serves to either preserve food, make it taste a certain way, or maintain a specific color or consistency.

We do not rely on these chemicals to survive and they are actually toxic to our bodies, cancer rates are on the rise because of synthetic chemicals that have been poisoning our foods for decades.

Yes, this is also the way.

Mmm yeah then you stick that delicious cup of peanut butter laden with man made chemicals like Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate (PGPR) and tert-Butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) into the garbage.

Fuck Reese’s Peanut butter cups.

I’ll stick to Unreal Peanut Butter Cups that are all natural.

None of this gross shit that will have long term negative side effects on our health. Just because these big food corporations want to cut costs at our health expense.

Some will say it’s “Generally Recognized As Safe” or “its only harmful in large doses” that’s Big AG propaganda. Generally Recognized As Safe is allowing the Food Industry to regulate itself, If it’s lethal at high doses its not good for you, period.

A little bit of poison might get you sick but won’t kill you unless you take it at higher doses.

If its not natural, its not good.
