The point is you can replay and copy it infinitely many times with no change in quality.

Half-Life 2 introduced a sidekick who's mixed race, has dyed hair, and punches cops in her first scene. And yet I've heard no one call that game woke.

I mean, it's not very cool if the good people living here have to suffer for it. Wishing for collapse isn't progressive or leftist - it's just defeatist.

Someone I know misheard "Tenth Avenue Freestyle" as "Tell the devil you freestyle" and honestly that's a much more interesting song.

Don't buy windows from eBay! You can download an iso for free from microsoft. Flash that to a USB and install it that way (or as others have suggested, just use a VM). It won't be activated but you don't need that for what you're doing: https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11

If you don't need windows 11, I actually recommend 10 ltsc. It doesn't come with all the bloat and adware that normal windows comes with: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/download-windows-10-enterprise

Somewhat, but it's not a virus. It's contained to it's own file system unless it does something really stupid, and I can easily remove the while whole thing. But the reason i needed it privileged is because it loads the ppp kernel module, so if you know a way to do that without privileged mode, lmk.

For me it had to be run with --privileged and --network=host

For some reason I also had to do "ip r add {remote IP}/{mask} via {the public IP assigned by the vpn}". A friend who knows more about networking found that out for me though, so I'm not entirely sure about it.

Had to install a VPN for work, and if you didn't have a rhel-based distros you had to use a bash install script, and the installed executable had embedded bash and sh scripts. Needless to say I ran that thing in a docker container.

I have a surface go 3 running Fedora, and use xournal++ for notetaking. Idk if it can export to svg but it works well and has plenty of features.

I believe in an update in the last 2 years or so, mint added a feature to warn you if you're about to uninstall something that will break things. So if you uninstall with the GUI, you'll see that warning if uninstalling will cause issues.
