No different than Windows. Kids will use what you put in front of them.

When I was fist getting interested in computers I didn't want to run DOS, I wanted to play Doom.

Usually, when the FBI arrests "terrorists", you find out that the FBI was the mastermind of the plot; provided materials and weapons; and the people arrested were recruited by the FBI. This pattern holds true with the militia types and the jihads.

Not that violent idiots don't belong in jail, but it's just funny that the FBI has planned more attacks on US soil than any other terrorist org. And it's depressing because any smart and capable terrorist would never come within a mile of the FBI's amateur hour entrapment.

Just for some context: the prohibition of using the Military in the States dates back to reconstruction. Slaveholding States didn't like the Yankee Army protecting Civil rights.

I'm not defending Trump, but the idea that using troops as law enforcement is "Un-American" or tyrannical is Confederate propaganda.

Just want to add my own conspiracy theory: Junior is not reacting to the lack of evidence, but push-back from the antivaxers.

Nvidia is worth more than the pharmaceutical industry. Tesla is worth more than all other car manufacturers combined.

Anti immigration politics cannot be understood without racism.

Ideals like immigration is going to change the national character is just another way to say some people are better than others.

Opposition to immigration is incoherent unless racism is true.

The second Bernie became popular, a backlash like this was inevitable.

A material analysis of Bernie Sanders would rule out a backlash because he's never held power or set policy.

But even if you rate effectiveness by how much they aggravate the right, politicians like Pelosi prove that being effective is more threatening than being left. Politicians like Obama prove that being black is more threatening than being radical.

I think you'll find Bernie Sanders rates far higher in MAGA circles than Pelosi or Obama. Because he doesn't represent any threat to them. (check out his defense of Trump's immigration policy)

Just stopping by to point out that murdering, spying, and overthrowing a governments is the most normal President shit Trump has done. If your looking for the "return to normality" of Biden or Obama, this is it.

The oldest praying automaton we know of is from the 16th Century. This is basically that but with more capitalism.

I can't help but notice how captured the Christian mind is, when even the return of the Savior is a business opportunity; a revenue stream. These people are already robots who can't worship without a prospectus and a spread sheet.

 
 

I own Windows 11 and my computer and preferred OS (Fedora) support TPM and Secure boot. Is it worth the time to configure that stuff to run W11, or should I just continue to run W10 since I don't do anything but run a couple games?

I have a robust backup, so even a system wide Nuke is a day's worth of re-installing, worst case.

Honestly, since I boot W10 so rarely, it'll kinda be nice not to have to update it every time.
