Can you only get hard by trolling? Or are you just really seriously lonely and depressed?

Mint or Fedora. KISS.

What I meant is that OP was asking for a response that not many, if any users here, could deliver here with any conviction or belief.

You might as well be asking for users here to share when it was they knew Trump was the best president of their lifetime. Just the wrong audience for that question, assuming you want a sincere response.

Do you live in a high density urban environment?

Because if so, that totally makes sense, and the other benefit of 5GHz/6GHz not traveling too far outside your apartment or condo wall, is pretty nifty as well.

But if you live in a house in the suburbs, man, that is commitment well outside of necessity, or convenience. Not saying it's bad choice per se, just seems unnecessarily burdensome IMO.

TBF I've never configured an Arch system from scratch, so maybe it's me that's missing out.

The thing about Fedora that got me to stop switching, was that it just felt more adult then the various and fashionable Ubuntu based distros, or any other well regarded distro I used over the years. The right mix of stability and new features/support, pretty much out of the box.

Also, after tweaking Gnome a little bit for a more Windows 10 dock/bar style launcher/menu, it's been perfect for me. Think I've been rolling with it since 38 now.

Anyways, best of luck with your new box.

Just so we're clear, your position is that Biden is at fault, but if he wasn't supporting this genocide, it would actually be worse?

It's late, and I'm watching the fights, so I don't have my full attention to spare, but I had enough available to read your comment and see that that you're being earnest in your argument, and your analysis is not disingenuous.

That's important to me, because while it's really bad, it also means that you're probably not a bad person.

For starters, it's all counterfactuals, and while that alone means it's a just barrel of formal and informal fallacies, it's also based on deeply flawed, or just grossly uneducated, misunderstandings of a wide range of fields, ranging from international relations, to military procurement and sustainment.

I'm not trying to be mean, and to be fair, I have an academic background in multiple fields related to these subjects, so I'm not pulling my criticism out of my ass.

But another fight is about to start, so my text to speech comment must end.

No... what are you talking about?

You said the escalatory actions were the Abraham accords, and moving the embassy to Jerusalem.

I just pointed those were both actions taken by the Trump administration.

So what requires a historical account? Do you mean you just want to site random historical events with no context, and if anyone points out when they happened, that's somehow a bad faith argument, or an unfair standard to apply...?

Oh my God... Did you really just read those "trigger events" in some article, have no idea what they actually were, or when they happened, but still decided to cite them in support of your argument...?

Do you not understand that you cited only two events, and both of them occurred during the Trump administration....?

I'm actually at a loss for words, because if you don't grasp how your comment is explicitly stating Trump is to blame, I don't know what else to tell you.

No, you just did whataboutism.

Which is why I separated my other commentary, and addressed it in general, and not directly at you.

Because while it's related to your comment, you hadn't crossed that bridge yet, but there's no shortage of that in these comments, read up and down.

Israel knows their client state, including the IDF and political leadership. Do you even read Israeli newspapers regularly?

I'm well aware of AIPAC, and the extent of their lobbying and influence operations.

None of that has anything to do with what I've been talking about.
