Right now, I still have Windows as dual boot in case things go sideways or I run into road blocks with work, but my plan is to move all of that to a VM in the near future (and ideally an actual work supplied machine with a KVM eventually). At that point, I could see myself falling back onto something like Pop!_OS as a stable side install if/when my main OS is having issues and I just want to play a game and not bash my head against a console for 5 hours.

Sorry to be so seemingly unfair to Pop OS, what it does it does do quite well, just not for me as a main driver.

Honestly, it seems really stable and works great, I just hate how…hand holdy it felt for me personally. I think the emoji was a little over the top. My apologies, haha. It’s totally fine for what it is, and if it works for you, that’s fantastic!

Christ, how insufferable. I dont know what I expected. Welcome to the block list I guess.

Way to completely miss my point. For someone who touts communication, your skills are severely lacking. Have a nice day.

This isn’t the gotcha you think it is. There’s a slight difference in using a well established acronym vs. a personally made-up one 😅

You’re essentially getting upset that someone used a word that you aren’t familiar with. With that, you’re comparing someone using this unfamiliar word to the use of a non-existant word.

When you encounter a word you dont know, you look it up in a dictionary. You don’t call out the author on their communication skills (rudely, mind you).

I’m really trying to be cordial here, and I really don’t mean to cause upset, but you must see where I’m coming from, no?

Chill out, man. This isn’t parliament. Everything doesn’t have to be communicated as if we’re drafting laws.

Communication styles vary greatly, and tone is dependent on setting. What OP posted was completely fine. No need to throw around clown emoji 😝

I think you’re making a significant deal out of something that is quite minor, personally. It’s okay, though. It’s minor, so we can agree to disagree. Cheers!

DAE is a fairly common acronym on online forums, often used in titles such as these. You could have used Google (or DuckDuckGo) to learn its meaning 😊

It’s simply “does anyone else.”

That initial comment is quite pointed…

Yours is pretty over the top as well, lol.

Im assuming you aren’t American, then 👀

Aren’t VPNs illegal in China?

Hey, it’s me! Have you tried one of those weekly medicine pill dividers? I did. I think I filled it once, then went back to my daily routine of forgetting my meds. ADHD fucking blows.

Ah, nothing like doing some proper lab work, then putting your fingies in your mouth.

My dogs are my family 100%. I’ll mourn them when they’re gone like I’d mourn any other family member. Except for that one cousin. Fuck that guy.

Have you ever swiped on your phone, but the screen doesn’t move (due to end of content, or unknowingly being an unswipable screen), and you feel your eyes jerk automatically in reflex, predicting the movement that didn’t happen?

And then there’s the rare moment when you think they have it so you let go and it falls to the floor 😭

I have taught my kids to communicate with me entirely in Morse code via blinking.

It’s perfect as it’s nigh impossible to be interrupted, and back-talk doesn’t matter because they look too stupid to even get upset about.

😬😬😬😬😬😬

That’s over 500 years, though, no?
