PugJesus was lost in an unfortunate hunting accident.

…I’m older.

…Oregon Trail older, motherfucker.

I’ve installed Mint and Ubuntu before (over a decade ago), and would manage. I remember having a lot of issues with drivers back then. I’d also be putting it on an HP Spectre x360, and I hear there are some difficulties booting linux because of a firmware issue.

Every other Windows distro is okay, since XP. XP ->7 ->10. I’m holding out for 12 because 11 blows, but…Linux looks more attractive every day.

Former boss: How do I make my computer run faster?

Me: you could install more RAM.

FB: Oh do I download that from the internet?

…I was fired a week later because she “felt threatened”. Lol.

Been there since 07, also work in Human Services. Reddit died with Aaron. He was the heart and soul of the site. The decline started shortly after that and it was slow, but it really picked up steam around the time of their IPO, and ever since they’ve pretty much embraced “evil”. Fuck Spez.
