They did. And they're called Zionists. The idea? Gaza: a more fenced off open air concentration camp approach, where you can ban world media coverage and commit genocide without anyone really knowing the full extent of the horror.

Elon's fuckery of 'The platform formely known as Twitter' is the gift that keeps giving.

Here's my suggestion for a new company motto:

"X: It's Twitter but it's Shitter."

Similar to yourself, I switched to Mint about 9 months ago - initially on dual boot before ditching Windows altogether (the Windows updates kept fucking everything up). For the one piece of software that I missed on Windows 10 (Fugawi Digital Maps) I simply created a Windows 7 VM, that doesn't connect to the internet, and installed it on there. In fact, it has made me realise just how crap 10 was in comparison to 7. Linux has been a pleasure. Not only has it made computers interesting to me again, but I've learned a shitload along the way. It's nice to have a computer do what I want it to, rather than the other way around.

Once again, the US and its spoilt brat Israel revealling how they are the biggest threat to any form of world peace. Land of the free? More like land of the ZioNazi lobby.

I like it better broken. It's more abstract.

Aye, it's a good educational tool for sure. It's nice to be playing around with Linux again. Installed Linux Mint to dual boot on my desktop about 2 months ago and liked it so much I installed it on my laptop then revamped an old desktop with Lxle in my shed. Booted into Windows two days ago just to check something and the damned thing decided to spend half an hour updating. That was the last straw for me. Shut it down, deleted the Windows partitions and updated the grub to remove any sign of the offending item. Apart from a couple of pieces of software that I haven't used in years, I'm now a fully-fledged Linux user. F*ck Windows!

Having recently returned to Linux after a twenty year hiatus, I'm currently enjoying OverTheWire as a good terminal refresher.

OverTheWire offers various wargames that let you practice and test your skills in security concepts. You can join the chat, visit the game pages, and connect to each game using SSH on different ports.
