May I introduce you to our lord and saviour, Wobbly Windows? https://youtu.be/3US9RvxmDuo

Why not? Collaborative editing is extremely useful. I've done it at work, with friends, and with my gf.

There's no reason the government couldn't own its providers via NextCloud or something.

EDIT: I guess the big, mean old collaborative editing features are out to get us and take away our freedoms and steal our puppies. Collab editing must be Satan's work and there's no way any moral person should find it helpful.

If you want any advice to help in combat, I'm happy to give you a breadcrumb. I knew I'd love playing that game within minutes of watching a friend play it. I've put countless hours in and can't wait for my next playthrough.

I'd recommend the first be played first, but I also think that if you instead play the second first and you love it, you can then go back and play the first.

The story unravels a bit smoother from 1 to 2 than in reverse.

Both are great games on their own.

I think toilet paper is better suited for wiping one's ass, and flushes better, but this will do in a pinch

A big benefit of encryption is that if your stuff is stolen, it adds a lot of time for you to change passwords and invalidate any signed in accounts, email credentials, login sessions, etc.

This is true even if a sophisticated person steals the computer. If you leave it wide open then they can go right in and copy your cookies, logins, and passwords way faster. But if it's encrypted, they need to plug your drive into their system and try to crack your stuff, which takes decent time to set up. And the cracking itself, even if it takes only hours, would be even more time you can use to secure your online accounts.

On Linux, my installs always had a checkbox plus a password form for the encryption.

66 accounts at a minimum. Possibly more

If distro hopping happens more than once a week, please stop hopping immediately and dial 911 as this is the sign of a very rare and serious symptom

plays more upbeat music

I think with more adoption, a lot of Linux's friction against more adoption will be resolved faster and for more people and use cases. Gaming is already at a point where you can practically play more games than you'd ever have the time or energy for.

I see your point. It's much weirder to say one thing is also the middle thing. It's probably much safer to say you have a middle name only if you have an odd number of names greater than one. You safely (IMO) have two middle names if you have an even number of names greater than two.

Well, if you have just 1 name, then technically, it's your first, middle, and last name at the same time

You're right. I can't recall the other utility's name. System Monitor is fantastic, but I just wish I could set the niceness and all that like you could on the old utility.
