  • I get it. I also don’t want to signal to Microsoft that switching to a subscription model is valid, for an OS I already payed for. I worry they’ll adapt it for all services released in the future, which are declining in quality. They are basically becoming Adobes ugly sibling.

    I know, this is a contradictory statement to what I have written before which was driven by frustration mainly. Managed to troubleshoot a few things since then.


  • Lol sorry for the ramble but I hope this might help you feel a little less lost at the grocery store. ;)

    Thank you for your detailed comment. :)

    I am dual booting Linux Mint Cinnamon, and you are totally right. The “app store” is very nice and I was honestly impressed how much control Cinnamon offered and made it accessible for beginners through GUI. It felt more streamlined than Win10 in some places. Steam’s Proton is also a huge deal, as most games work great with it enabled out of the box. I do however often feel lost. I didn’t expect that but the thing most difficult for me is basic stuff, like navigating the start menu. I really like the customization Win10 offered and miss it dearly.

    I guess it is part not having a feeling on how Cinnamon works yet. After using Windows since 2006 I know my way around it failry well, and I don’t have that “gut-feeling” in Linux yet. It will come with time, but atm I am feeling a little defeated.

    Der Inhalt des Memes ist nur bedingt maßgeblich. Es ist mehr die Frage in sich, die auf mich sehr abwertend wirkt. Zum einen habe ich nicht damit gerechnet nach meiner “Familienplanung” befragt zu werden, noch empfinde ich “hormonell verdreht” als angemessene Formulierung. Wirkt auf mich wie gesagt abwertend, da der weibliche Hormonhaushalt (historisch) oft als Fehler, oder Zumutung betrachtet wurde (Hysterie, hat ihre Tage, ergo sei sie nicht zurechnungsfähig etc.). Ich möchte dir nicht unterstellen, dass das deine Absicht war. Ich wollte wirklich nur schildern wie ich die Nachricht verstehe, bzw. was meine Assoziationen sind. Danke, dass du auf mich zugekommen bist und gefragt hast :)









  • I don’t get why the bringe of (at least Picard’s) Enterprise is located at the top of the ship. We often see ships suffering hull-damage, sometimes scraping each other and getting into all kinds of perilous situations. So why put the room with the most important people in such a vulnerable position when you could put it at the heart of the ship? Bridge would be less likely to suffer from hull damage and decompression. Also, why don’t enemy factions just go: Oh that’s the bridge. Jolly good. Aim torpedoes at it, watch their morale crumble to dust alongside the bridge crew and call it a day.
