No audio, no WiFi, no well-established communities, sparse software selection, but total freedom on an alternate OS. I tried it out in the late 90s with Red Hat, left, came back about 5 years later in the early 2000s and stayed forever. SuSE 9.2 was amazing.

This song ruined my life just a bit. Heard it on Beavis and Butthead.

Somehow, I figured that out on my own and moved on.
weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Men with 'toxic masculinity' are more likely to make sexual advances without consent, study finds417·1 year agoThat is hardly academic. Rather it is tied to a generation that misunderstands the basis of gender as a whole.

weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Men with 'toxic masculinity' are more likely to make sexual advances without consent, study finds320·1 year agoHow is the combination of adjective plus noun going to get you an unbiased study? Toxic anything creates bias before the research on anything has begun.
weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Men with 'toxic masculinity' are more likely to make sexual advances without consent, study finds416·1 year agoFeel free to explain the opposite. It’s a poor premise of masculinity, if that is what you think of it.
weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Men with 'toxic masculinity' are more likely to make sexual advances without consent, study finds321·1 year agoAgreed. Your down votes and my down votes are toxic celibacy from those who no longer know how to go out and speak to women in person. Their lives are lived mostly on their phones.

weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Dave Chappelle fills Netflix special with jokes about trans and disabled people16·2 years agoPublic cancellation costs people their jobs, livelihoods, and even their lives because a sensitive, loud, and naive sub section of the population felt “triggered” by someone else’s right to free speech. This, in turn, makes others wary of the things they say and inhibits their free speech.
People are presumed guilty without due process and are forced to grovel and apologize for otherwise meaningless acts which elevated the anxieties of the super sensitive. This is a witch hunt and has happened before in the US in Salem and during the McCarthy era. Both periods are seen as sore spots in our history.
This is convenient when your opinion is with the majority. It a threat and unsustainable when your opinion is no longer the majority opinion.
“Full stop”.

As for your second question, that is a straw man argument.
weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Dave Chappelle fills Netflix special with jokes about trans and disabled people316·2 years agoPublic cancellation or being cancelled by a sensitive sub section of the population threatens free speech.
weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Dave Chappelle fills Netflix special with jokes about trans and disabled people214·2 years agoWith cancel culture being so sensitive, free speech is under attack. I disagree with NewsMax and Nazis, but they have a right to express themselves without being cancelled.
weaponG@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Dave Chappelle fills Netflix special with jokes about trans and disabled people216·2 years agoMy point exactly. Thanks to the Bill of Rights, the people have certain reserved and protected rights. These rights which we take for granted are not guaranteed in other countries and can lead to charges of blasphemy.

Netflix offers choices for entertainment. I don’t like most of the content on Netflix, but I don’t think it should be canceled just because I dislike it.
