It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it’s just hidden in the cost of the device.

Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.
In fairness, the first iteration of that deal was Pepsi for Stolichnaya.
First OS on a computer I personally owned? Windows 98. First Linux distro was Source Mage.
If not counting ownership, then Apple IIs at school and then slightly later my family got an Amstrad that was primarily a DOS machine, but could also boot (by switching floppies several times) to some sort of GUI.
That was actually Unix. Specifically the fsn file manager for IRIX.
There’s a Linux clone called fsv.
Or DOS Shell.
This is much prettier, though.
Shouldn’t the big ones be Durdcell and Durccell?
Also: Dur9vcell.
As far as any of those sites are concerned, I was born January first, [the earliest year they allow].
Don’t even get me started about sex on the beach.
Jessica: He’s a very naughty boy!
“You got your Saturnalia on my Yule!”
“You got your Yule on my Saturnalia!”
Nice dickerdoodle. And whatever the yonic equivalent of “dickerdoodle” is.
Vagingerbread? Pusscotti? Labiakuchen?
It annoys me that hardly any of Dresden’s needling of Cat Sith works when spoken aloud.
(Because that “sith” is pronounced “shee”; it’s the Scottish spelling of “sidhe”.)
Wait, is that explicitly mentioned in the series? (Plausible, but I don’t remember it.)
Or is it just because there’s syncretism between Odin and Santa?
Not voting is mathematically equivalent to a half vote for genocide deluxe.
So, yes, your (refusal to) vote does matter, in that it makes the situation a bit worse.
don’t give me that “oh, they can’t win” bullshit
Unfortunately it’s not bullshit, but a mathematical consequence of first past the post elections. Voting for a third party is equivalent to not voting in terms of getting your most hated major candidate into office.
The only way out is election reform.
It’s funny, I just switched to pulseaudio hoping it would fix some issues I’ve been having with pipewire. It did not.
Edit: I’m not on Mint, though, so best of luck.
