starting a new adventure in the fediverse!

IIRC, Sisko preferred freshly-grown ingredients and even got very upset with Cassidy when she burned some of his peppers that took him months to grow. At his father’s restaurant, he and Jake were also tasked with cleaning buckets of fresh clams when they visited.
As for Pike, I can’t say. mid-23rd century food synthesizers weren’t nearly as advanced as mid-late-24th century replicators, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he also preferred the real thing to synthesized foodstuffs.
I went Mac. it’s UNIX, and far better than suck-ass windows… but there’s a real limitation when it comes to gaming… Linux is supporting more and more games and macOS isn’t so much… that might change soon, it might not.
Personally, I’m not so much of a gamer, and I really like the Apple ecosystem. I run linux on my server and love it, too, and macOS plays really nice with linux. But if gaming is big for you AND you need Adobe apps like I do, then you’ll have to dual-boot if you want your main OS to be linux.
As for learning the ins-and-outs: there’s a leaning curve we ALL go through, and you’ll always be learning more as you go. But there’s never been a better time to learn as there’s never been more resources to help nor more community to support you with any and every problem you could ever have. Now is a very exciting time for linux. it’s super.
So, if I were you, I’d consider the switch away from Windows. You can dual-boot (or run a VM) or find a way to run Adobe Apps via Wine (not sure how that works). Personally, I couldn’t live without them and am very happy with macOS, but it’s not for everyone. Maybe you’ll be able to live with dual-booting into windows for wen you need to work and living the rest of the time in linux. it’s a journey you’re just going to have to take.
best of luck to you!
“I’d play more games, but I’m too busy working to afford the upgrades to my PC, upgrading my PC, and then going online to discuss how much I’ve upgraded my PC! Also, hopping linux distros every time I hear about a new one, and then going online to talk about that!"
we watched him do this shit for 4 years 3 years ago, and they’re “stunned” about this now???
they knew. they always knew. that’s why they went into business with him. this objection is purely performative so they can take his dirty money while trying to stay clean.
but they’re still just as dirty
Ok, so here’s the headline:
NATO Official Gives Ukraine ‘Unacceptable’ Conditions for Joining
Then the first sentence:
The chief of staff for NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has angered Kyiv officials for suggesting Ukraine could become a member of NATO if it ceded some of its territory to Russia.
Then the second sentence.
Stian Jenssen, who has held the title of director of the Private Office of the NATO Secretary General since 2017, reportedly made the suggestion while speaking on a recent panel in the Norwegian city of Arendal.
Now we have 3 slightly different versions of the story, but the differences are very important. Which one is the truth? The headline says he gave conditions to Ukraine, the second implies it, and the third clarifies that he was speaking to a Norwegian discussion panel. In Norway, where there may not have even been an Ukrainians present.
WTF, Newsweek?

Analysis / Bias
Mint Press presents news with a strong left-leaning bias in story selection. Headlines and articles use moderately loaded language like this: NFL Freezes Policy Barring Players From Kneeling During Anthem. This particular story is republished from the conspiracy website ZeroHedge. Typically, Mint Press sources their information, but sometimes it is from Mixed factual or conspiracy websites. In general, story selection moderately favors the left, such as this Trump Administration Opens Door for Corporate Attack on Vulnerable Wildlife.
