Attempting a self coup to usurp the will of the people and install yourself as leader at the expense of the other sure is a "History of Aminosity."

Just open it in reader mode and refresh, so much easier.

How do you know that?

While this method is more costly than traditional means, it isn't by that much, but it does drastically reduce the time on mountain. Everest is notoriously crowded. Lowering time on the mountain could reduce those crowds which would be a positive effect for all climbers. I think we'll just have to wait and see how the chips fall, but I don't think there's enough info to just say that this makes it more accessible and thus more problems on the mountain.

The idea is that the deck is not a one off and as more devices come to run SteamOS specifically developers will take note.

Why would recreational use matter just cause it's banned in competitive sports?

Some are. Being an atheist doesn't automatically make you smart it just means you've taken a stance on a single issue.

"Radiation-induced mutation" BTW, 'cause mutation is pretty much THE method via which genetic differences occur.

I honestly don't understand how people socialise and make friends though gaming

yet I've never interacted with anyone, I don't have a headset and I don't wanna hear voice or chat while playing though

To be blunt, you need to interact and talk with people to form a lasting relationship. If you aren't socialising while gaming then, well, you aren't socialising while gaming.

That's fine, a perfectly valid way to play, but if you really envy them and you want to start socialising and making friends while gaming you're gonna have to get a headset and talk with people.

I'm sure there are as many reasons as there are people who dislike Ubuntu, but here's a few:

  • They injected internet ads into search
  • To many outside of the community if they have any familiarity with Linux on a desktop, it's with Ubuntu which kinda places it in a position to newcomers as being Linux itself rather than one particular flavor
  • It is very opinionated about look and feel and usability: i.e. their custom launcher and Snaps
  • It's popular
  • It has a reasonably large user base so there's more opportunity for people to find things to nitpick over.

Overall it's fine. I've used Ubuntu, Mint, Puppy, DSL, Arch (btw), Fedora, and Debian. I can do pretty much anything I need to on any of them. I've got my preferences about the correct balance between useability, upgrade schedule, and customizability.
