In dumbfuckistan they do.

It was rhetorical, but I agree with your statement.

Nazis deserve a lot worse than just getting doxxed

What happened in his life to become a Nazi at 26 years old lol what the fuck

Agreed it could save a ton of money. However, Westhills Development still owns the land, so the city could purchase the building, and when the contract is up for renewal in 25 years, Westhills Development could theoretically bulldoze the building and redevelop.

Sounds like some shitty backdoor deal made under previous mayor’s administration and his cronies. Pretty typical in Langford.

It was supposed to be the “universal language”. According to Wikipedia, up to 100,000 people speak it globally.

If I remember correctly, it was adopted by the League of Nations, a precursor to NATO, in the early 1900’s.

Here’s the article if you’re interested. I didn’t really read through it to fact check myself cause I’m poopin’ on break, but there you go.

Friend, I am no Linux shill, but I switched to Mint last week on my secondary laptop, and let me tell you, it’s kinda cash and pretty easy.

I had to verify the integrity and authenticity of the Mint download itself, but it’s straightforward and tells you how to do that. Once you’re done, you install the OS just like you would with Windows.

Full disclosure, I don’t use the laptop for much, so no fiddling needed for me.

Edit: I guess I am shilling it, but I mean I’m not a Linux fanboy

Yeah… Or they’re slaves to the ethereal class

It’s a good thing there’s a whole article with context as to why this is bad. I think the headline is apt.

Thanks for the heads up. My guinea pig laptop will not be having games on it. I may try out Factorio down the road to see if it’ll run, but that’s more to test than to play. This machine will be pretty much a Crunchyroll/web browsing machine.

I suppose one things I forgot to include in my main post, now that I think about it, is protection. Windows typically has a lot of safeguards built in, so I’m pretty comfortable torrenting stuff online. How does this work with other Linux distros? Do they all have their own systems already in place, or is this something I need to set up myself? And how careful do I have to be about download stuff online, or browsing the web?

I have issues right now with fast boot on my Windows machine. If I disable it, I can’t shut down my computer, it just restarts. Weird problem that has somehow survived a re-image. Likely some issue I’m going to have to sort out prior to starting the Linux process.

Awesome. That’s pretty much exactly what I’m looking for. I’m sure I’ll tinker more down the road, but this is perfect for now.

Thanks friend. Appreciate the info :)

I don’t play any MMOs, and this laptop won’t have any games, other than maybe Factorio to test down the road. It’s pretty much an extra laptop I have laying around to see if I can get a Linux OS set up.

Thanks for the link though. If I do ever set up Linux on my main gaming rig, I’ll be sure to refer to the link.

Amazing write-up, thank you so much. Put into terms that I can easily understand.

I’ll digest this and take everything you said into consideration when setting everything up as you’ve provided a TON of valuable info. Cheers!

Yeah I’ve seen that… Embarrassing that someone like that got elected. Embarrassing for Albertans that they would elect someone like that. My experience of Alberta over BC, especially Victoria, is it was much more conservative, and tended to be more racist. I spent some time working in Edmonton, and I saw more racism in a year there than in my 30 years in Victoria.

I agree with your statement about things getting better. There seems to be a lot less racism in younger people than old.

Thanks for the detailed response, I’m really looking forward to getting it set up. It’s nice to hear that it seems like you can sort of dip your toes in and be in a somewhat familiar environment at the beginning.

Great, thanks a lot for the detailed write up!

Awesome. Excited to try it out. Maybe I’ll give it a go tomorrow and see if I can get it figured out.
