Also not an Aussie; but yes it is.

This is a concept that has been discussed for a long time ; you are in good company contemplating this fundamental paradox.

I use Mint, with little customization.

Mint basically gets out of my way, I care about the ability to get my work done.

I also prefer the windows paradigm rather than the Mac paradigm. IMHO Mint does it better than windows now.

I run mint 22.1 and have a 9070xt.

I used mainline to install kernel 6.14, works flawlessly.

First of all.
Life has no inherent meaning; there is no grand plan or objective purpose to your life or any other persons.
Thus; what you choose has meaning is objectively meaningful (to you).

On a grander scale. As far as we know currently, we are the only example of advanced intelligence in the universe. We are almost certainly not; but we have no evidence at this stage. This is objectively meaningful; for humanity as a whole, if you choose to participate in ensuring the continuation of the only example of intelligence is totally up to you. As long as some people choose to continue the species intelligence continues in the universe.

Seems like something Jack Black would wear.

It’s easy, stable and gets out of my way.

I haven’t seen the need to dostro hop for years.

Na, engineers are male/female. Not men and female.

I have never heard anyone called a man engineer or a woman engineer…it is always male/female engineer…on the rare occasion that any designation is required.

When you are looking for things to be offended about, you will find them…it is not good for your mental health.

Or an engineer, we all grow beards to show wisdom.

I know a female engineer who has a fake beard on the wall in her office. She has been known to wear it to meetings, for extra respect…

Easy fix, stop doing studies. The problem will just disappear.

We can’t have dirty ethnics hanging around now can we.

For you, the day the IDF graced your camp was the most important day in your life, but for me? It was Tuesday.

Pretty sure it is…

Ah yes appeal to authority. There is a reason this is a well understood fallacy; assuming something is true (or false) because the speaker says it is flawed.

I’m doing my part

I only use Reddit when it comes up in a search result. Otherwise it is Lemmy all the way

Bullshit, some things happen on day one!!! Like the ending of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Well at least it is bullet proof…not sure about missile strike proof though.
