Sorry it didn’t work out for you like Linux Mint works for me (I switched full time to LM in December 2024).
If you haven’t already, switch to Windows 10 LTSC in the interim. I have a feeling Linux will only improve over time with greater compatibility with Proton. Since Win 10 LTSC is supported until 2029, that’s plenty of time for for more kinks to be worked out and you can potentially try Linux again.
Just an FYI that the Smart cancer has already began infecting computer monitors. It won’t be long until there are no more dumb monitors.
Samsung and LG make smart computer monitors. There are probably many others.
Wow I never knew about this utility! I downloaded one for my smartphone and it’s extremely straightforward. You can even set up reminders so that it’ll notify you when you should spend 5 minutes calling your reps.
I’ll have to verify the scripts that I see, but it looks like it’s as simple as giving you the name of the rep, a script to read, a phone number to click so you can call them, and a logging utility so that you can just click the Next button and move on to the next rep. Makes it stupid easy to let your reps hear your voice and stance. Definitely going to try this out as I’ve been feeling so powerless and overwhelmed by the onslaught of these racists in power.
Thanks for sharing this. I had no idea it was this easy to track everything and make it simpler for me to try to fight back.

Luigi: “Treat yoself!”
Trump: “Our thoughts and prayers go out to them, and may the God bless our souls— I mean, God bless them and save them from hiel. It’s the DEI that made them die.”
Gestures awkwardly trying to show Christianity
Trump: “What thing do you guys do when you show prayer? Is it the hand in the air thing or…?” Puts hand straight into air.
Advisor (whispers): “Sir, that’s the sig hiel. Wrong move. You gotta fold your hands.”
Trump: “Listen, no one - and I mean no one - knows more about the Jesus than me. I love the Bible. Really loving book after all. Read it, all the pages in the Bible are great, book of love and that’s just what this country needs. My favorite books are Bible after all. I read them all and I know them, I got so many favorite stories in them. Love the sequel, too. Look, why did they have to die? I mean who knows really. But I have strong opinions that DEI is the problem in some way. We’re gonna figure it out, we’ve got men looking into it, and certainly not the women.”

It will NEVER happen, but I’m still gonna try!
Damn. I gotta rewatch Hook now. Haven’t seen it since I was probably a pre-teen, but I saw it so many times on VHS that I believe I’ll remember most of it. I definitely want to experience it again framed as an adult.
Democratic National Committee, don’t just stick to your old tired playbook of telling everyone that Trump is bad and doing the things he said he’d do. It didn’t work last time.
DNC, start immediately telling all Americans why this is wrong, what you will do different with the executive power, and keep up that messaging in a media blitz to win back all the working class voters who didn’t show up last time. Get a plan now for who you want to run on your ticket, and push them into the spotlight to advocate for us with progressive policies that help the working class. I’m a dreamer, but for the love of all things good, please let them be an actual progressive.
“We are the Democratic Party. Democrats are fighting for a better, fairer, and brighter future for every American: rolling up our sleeves, empowering grassroots voters, and organizing everywhere to build a better America.”
Really? Fucking prove it, then! Be the party of brawlers and stop maintaining “decorum”. MAGA is playing dirty because you’re weak and they know you won’t do shit. Fight for the working class like your mission statement alleges.
So tired of backsliding to the right on this tilted table.
100% agree. I grew up on Super NES and owned every console gen from Nintendo up through Switch. Got into PC gaming 7 years ago, and then picked up a PS5 on a ridiculous deal to try to enter into their market and play some games. Astro Bot is a charming and incredibly fun video game. So much love was poured into this game.
It’s an incredible game and it deserves all of the awards it earned. I still love all the main Mario games I’ve played, and Mario Odyssey was a wonderful and charming game, too. Astro Bot is certainly not a “we already have Mario at home” game - I hold it up there with one of my favorite platformers I’ve ever played.
It’d be great if it could get ported to PC, but they would have to significantly adjust the game controls to get around the purposefully tight integration with the PS5 controller. Playing that game with the PS5 controller was so much fun.

Whoa, I never noticed the moon has accordion hands! Thats weird!
It’s two characters, specifically Itchy and Scratchy from The Simpsons.
This is from season 20 episode 7, “MyPods and Broomsticks”. Scratchy is listening to a MyPod (parody of Apple iPod), and Itchy reaches over to increase the volume limit beyond its capacity. This causes Scratchy’s eardrums to explode. This scene occurs at approximately 8:37 into the episode.

Has anyone seen an ocarina dropped by a princess anywhere? It’s the magical kind that resets time and heals persons.

Stupid, sexy heroes!
Do it. It’s very straightforward.
Whenever you need to switch providers such as if Tuta decides to support fascism like Proton’s CEO, you can easily switch to a new provider. Then add your domain to the provider, update your DNS records to point to your new provider, click Save. Done. And you won’t have to change your email addresses ever again.
