Cheers!

I’ll dual boot Mint then.

Where would you recommend a complete Linux noob start after having used Windows his entire life?
I’m in your boat: I want an OS that works (more or less) and will let me browse, listen to music and occasionally fire up a game or two without forcing new money grabbing crap down my throat.
I enjoy troubleshooting strange issues now and then, but if it’s a daily occurrence I’m not interested.

Thank you in advance!

I was looking for this before I posted him myself!
His quirky humor and attitude is adictive.
Looking forward to every episode

His voice is just soooo soothing!
I have zero interest in watches, but I’ll watch him any day

Ok fine, my running shoes I got the same way you did.

I still skimp on the everyday shoes though, and like you avoid flat soles like fire.

Cheers for sharing though. I know what you’re doing would benefit me in the long run.

This I agree with.

I once heard someone say: «never skimp out on what seperates you from the ground».
For bed and tires I really agree, but with shoes I’m not as strict.

I bought the original on my iPhone 4 and still have it in my purchase history, but when I download it on my iPad today it’s full if ads and limited lives….

What am I doing wrong?

Edit: it’s called Angry Birds Classic now if that makes a difference

Mine is air to air.
You were probably quoted ground to air, where they must drill for ground heat?

I reckon that’s your main issue.
You’d need a model designed for a colder climate.

Maybe for your next one!

Mind me asking what yours cost?

Just got a Toshiba unit installed in Norway and it was $3500.
Built in de froster.

Price might be what makes yours strugle in colder temps.

Ok.

I don’t know if you wallow in self pity or if you’ve actually tried it all, but I’m gonna let you make the calls for your life.

I wish you the best regardless and know that it’s never to late to change your mind, friend.

So you answered my questions, but at the same time you didn’t.

Congrats on losing 80 lbs! That’s a massive job well done. Are you still overweight?
If so, keep at it! Every pound lost makes you look better, feel better, live longer and healthier.

Facial hair: Who said it looked good? Who said it looked bad?
Did several people compliment it, but one or two tore your self image back down?
If it really was bad: Try something new.

I don’t know and won’t ask any personal questions, but are these deformities impossible to hide or improve upon?
I do not mean surgery, but facial hair, hair, clothing or even make-up?

It’s always your choice if you wish to give up or not, but as long as you seem to have a semblance of hope I’m gonna try to be a positive in your life.

It’s hard to say what you could do to improve your situation without knowing you, and your diagnoses cannot be «fixed».
Being hit with the ugly stick however is something you can work on.
Do you excersize and stay in decent shape?
Do you groom regularly?
Do you pay attention to what you wear (no need to blow loads on fashion, but in general)?

All of those combined could bring you up a point or two, but your main issue is probably your lack of confidence, which is very understandable.

Confidence in who you are and you being awesome is, in my experience, everything.
You can fake it, but to truly build it you need to come to terms with the facts and love yourself.

Man I still listen to music from SSX 3.
So many great memories from that game.

The statement about a massive majority of iPhones in the Nordics is factually incorrect.
iPhone has a slight lead at one of the biggest vendors Komplett, but that is without counting the remaining 10 % which is almost exclusively Android units.
For clarity: Komplett operates in all the Nordic countries, but I would assume these numbers are for Norway, the richest of the bunch.

It’s the same story at work where I am the responsible party for company phones: Pretty evenly distributed where some of the iPhones are chosen due to MLM solutions for those wishing certain solutions.

I can only speak for my own age group in my personal life, but I would say Android has a quite big lead with young adults.
Kids/teens might be a completely different story though.

You calling me ignorant while displaying a complete lack of understanding of basic history is just sad.

I don’t support your proven oppressive and evil form of rule. I never will and most people won’t. You can keep telling yourself that we are all vicious evil capitalists for disagreing with you, but I guarantee you I support more socialist causes than you ever will.

What a moronic take, Christian.

I, with many others, live in a capitalistic country and live a great life with social safety nets. The conclusion comes from empirical data that all former attempts at pure socialism/communism has failed due to human greed and corruption. If I am wrong, then show me so I can learn.

Do better than trying to ridicule someone just because they disagree with you. Argue in good faith if you want to have a meaningful exhchange.

No it does not, but it has been tested several times over and has failed every single time. At some point we should focus on improving what we have instead. No amount of downvotes will change that.

I don’t know where you are from, but I do not feel like I live in a exploitative and fucked up system. Northern Europe for reference.

Could you name any other system to have existed in recent times that was not totalitarian and completely devoid of capitalistic market functions?

I love the idea of communism, but it’s just that: and idea.
We as a specias are too damn greedy and self obsessed to ever make it work, IMHO.

Aye!

I bought some stupid expensive Japanese cooking knives and a grinding stone and I am never ever going back to the cheap stuff.
