Funny because it's true.

I don't know if I said this before, but Microsoft overpaid for Bethesda.

Not sure what the fuck is going on on Nexusmods, but I went on earlier today and noticed I got a message. I went to check it and I had zero messages... I just checked my my email and apparently my account was suspended, but then it was uplifted? My account isn't suspended and I have no fucking clue what was going on. Maybe some Nexus fanboi reported me for some reason... This shit is all confusing.

You are well skilled with Linux. A bit of work and you can have pretty much everything you want. Install Debian and then choose the desktop you want and the various features. It shouldn't take you any longer than it takes to install Windows and all the drivers and software lol Customize it completely. Choosing a headless version of Linux and then building it from semi scratch will get you everything you can want. It is advanced for an advanced user. I mention Debian since that is the base of all the distros you talk about. You can do the same thing with Arch or even Fedora. Slightly different commands and options for packages but you can do it.

I've been using Zorin OS for a while, but I'm switching back to Mint. Zorin is a rock-solid distro and I've never had any technical issues with it. It just works, and is better than Windows, but you could say that about most Linux distros. Well, maybe one minor issue. When dragging and dropping files to upload them, I always get a notification saying the browser is ready, but the files never upload. I have to click the button to open the file explorer and browse to the folder where the file is. This happens when using either GNOME or Xfce, and with all the different browsers I use. This does not occur on Linux Mint. It's an annoying issue, but one I can live with. I wouldn't go back to Windows over that. Another annoyance is GNOME itself. I knew it wasn't customisable before installing Zorin OS, but the desktop doesn't work in the same way as a Windows desktop. For example, many windows lack full header bars. The desktop is inconsistent in how it handles windows, and it seems that the designers prioritized style over functionality. It's strange, some windows have full header bars and others don't and sometimes you may have to hold down the mouse and the super key to drag windows around. This distro is lauded by YouTubers as one of the best for Windows users looking to switch to Linux. However, it uses a desktop environment that is completely different to the Windows experience. The Start Menu isn't opened by the Super Key; it displays all the windows that are open. This is not something that former Windows users are accustomed to. I haven't used Windows 10 in over a year, and I never used Windows 11, so if that has changed, let me know. I'm starting to think that YouTubers are being paid for their reviews, because none of the channels I've watched have mentioned these issues. They're small issues, but they add up. On a positive note, I really like the advanced window tiling feature. It was this feature that convinced me to install Zorin in the first place. Simply drag the window over the menu that drops down from the top and onto the grid to which you want the browser to snap. It's that simple! It's super smooth and easy, and I use it all the time! The Zorin Connect app allows you to stream videos and music to your smartphone. I didn't know about it until I connected my phone to my computer. It's cool, but not something I need. Xfce is another annoyance. If you cannot adjust to using the GNOME desktop, you can switch to Xfce instead. However, the problem with that is that it defaults to the Zorin Lite version, which is based on Xfce. If you change the Zorin Lite theme, it reverts to the default after about 30 seconds. That was my experience, at least. And the great window tiling feature that convinced you to try Zorin in the first place? It's not available with Xfce. You might be wondering why not install KDE Plasma or Cinnamon? I'm not the biggest fan of KDE. I think it's too heavy (I prefer light desktops) and, from what I've read, it's difficult to remove completely. As for Cinnamon, you may as well just use Linux Mint. You might think that this whole post is just me criticizing Zorin OS. It isn't. I think it's a very good distro, rock solid, but I can only recommend it to Linux users who know what they're getting into. Apparently, Zorin has experienced over three million downloads, largely attributed to Windows users who don't want to downgrade to Windows 11. I would like to know how many of those three million people are still using Zorin. TL;DR: I'm switching back to Mint. Zorin is great, but Mint is better.

Is it me or does his voice remind you of

It will devolve into something right out of the movie Idiocracy. (2009?). Watch that and you will know what your future holds. "Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that." [1]

I doubt that game was produced in the US. LOL

take my money

Hate to think what stuff like this will turn into in another decade, lol. Crazy eyes don't lie.
