If you want Debian plus some nice tools, I’d recommend MX Linux. It’s based on Debian stable and mosrly just has a few convenient extras. Like installing nvidia drivers with one click, or being able to create a bootable ISO of your exact system. It has a few other neat tools, too.

Wouldn’t be surprised if you could just nab those tools ad hoc as desired for normal Debian, though.

It’s not about need. It’s about him being a well done portrayal.

My guy, you’re commenting after someone has already offered another source.

High taxes is limiting capitalism.

So do mine for similar reasons ifyouknowwhatimean

Alternative? Sure. Though why?

If ethernet works, you’re just using a more expensive option to go with fiber.

Unless you need something unique about fiber, like distance (which can still be dubious for consumer grade hardware), or a non-electrical based signal (dubious requirement in most cases), then you’re just throwing money at being able to say you use fiber.

They’re not just finally saying it out loud, though. The whole extra step of outright saying, “I’m gay” in response to being attracted to the same sex as your trans identity, especially when stated flippantly, is heavily implying that they’ve already thought it through.

They’re not going, “hmm food for thought”. They’re just going, “yep, gay”.

The sucky thing is, it could be a modeling issue, but the answer would have to be a model that agrees with all observations. For example, it could be that spacetime can get permanently warped such that gravity-like effects remain, but then how would a model represent that? If the model represents it as a field that is held in effect by some localized particle, then that ‘something’ might still be called “matter” even though it could be nothing more than an artifact of that particular model.

For a similar happenstance with current models, see the “graviton”. If spacetime ‘changes’ due to the presence of matter (at least, insofar as locality and position itself is real) and nothing more, there might not actually be a graviton to discover, yet that’s what the models demand to become closer to observed reality.

When logic and concern are distinctly missing from most of the world, do you really question why so many give in to chaos and want to tear down those same systems that are resisting all efforts to improve them?

It’s obvious that politely asking charlatans and greedy fools to change gets you nothing. That leaves only few avenues left.

It’s an arrow. The other signs say, “me”, referring to the giant plush whos face the arrow points at.

I guess they didn’t know that modern character sets have arrows in all directions, such as ↗, ⇗, ➶, or even 🏹 although I guess ‘bow and arrow’ could point different directions based on font.

“Dark matter” is not its own idea. It is literally the name for the unknown observed effect, NOT an explanation for the effect.

Most physicists hate the term “dark matter” too, because it sounds like an explanation when it is literally the opposite.

“Dark matter” could be one or several things at once, because it is the name for the observed phenominon, not an explanation for it.

We know something is there, we just don’t know what. That je ne sais quoi is what’s called “dark matter”, which again, is not an explanation of anything, but the name of the observed phenomenon.

It might not even be matter at all, though observations like what’s cited in the OP lean toward it being something that exists as opposed to a difference in the mathematical models, which should apply to all of spacetime in order to be called accurate. Since it is a local effect that we see is different in different areas, that makes it far less likely to be a general disagreement.

If they’re trans and know they’re trans, they’re not an egg.

Again, it’s showing an open admittance. Is an “egg” not a person that is wrestling themselves with the idea of being trans? If they know they’re trans, they’re not an egg.

I also never said the comic is dismissing any trans identity.

If the person is a “dude” as you say, you are the one removing their trans identity. So, they’re either a trans woman themselves, and not an egg (because they are aware and openly admitting it, even by accident), or it is dismissing the possibility that a straight person can be attracted to a trans woman.

If the person who is liking a trans person is also trans (and not open to themselves about it), then they’re an egg. Though the mere act of liking a trans girl is not egg material, IMO.

Implying they’re an egg by the mere attraction to a trans girl is dismissing ‘normal’ attraction to trans girls, IMO. That’s definitely not good. You shouldn’t have to be trans and/or gay to like a trans girl. Period.

Them saying, “yes I’m gay” in response is either a complete dismissal of the above, or an open admission to being trans/non-binary/etc, which is distinctly not “egg” material.

So, it is mostly the appearance in egg_irl that is the problem with the comic: There is no egg pictured.

Assuming you are a trans girl or girl (I repeat myself), that’s true.

Educating people to reality should NEVER be viewed as a losing battle.

You have the greatest tool on the universe that will agree with trans girls being girls even beyond your existence. Why give that up?!

Defeatist fucking attitude at the least…

To equate trans girls with guys being ‘gay’ is to totally and completely fail to accept trans girls as girls.

Heath Ledger is and always will be a legend. Not an idol or icon, but a legend.

For many, exactly because he successfully portrayed the pictured Joker as such a, “hideous creature”.

Mathew 6:1-6

Jesus was not a fan of public worship for the sake of public approval.

He is all about a personal relationship, not one you trumpet out to the world.

The public officials who use it as an excuse to garner sympathy are doing the exact opposite of what the Bible teaches. Any “followers” who view such peacocking as a good sign are nothing but ignorant fools being led by same old in-group vs out-group tribalism, which again is specifically taught against in the Bible.

This completely and utterly ignores the capitalist pressures that also hit building materials. Just look at wood prices in the US. Prices have skyrocketed outside of the housing supply as well.

TL;DR: Capitalism is cancer on anything required to live, including the vast supply chain for such goods.
