To be fair, the plague in Hebrew (Egyptian?) is צפרדע /tz'fardei'ah, which looks like a singular and not a plural. I totally see where he's coming from. But also, I thought it was in Midrash Tanchuma.

חג פסח שמח!

What the hell, calculators with color screens? Back in my day our graphing calculators were black and gray and we were told to be happy, damn it.

EndeavorOS might also be a good option, from what I've heard. It's Arch based, but easier to install and use. I recently switched to Garuda, also Arch based, but focused more on the gaming community.

I did select a number of programs to install during setup so I had everything I needed. Spot on!

That's really cool! Didn't know that. Thanks for sharing, since I've just subscribed to the community.

Sorry about that. I'll keep that in mind if this gets taken down. Thanks!

I've been using those on my Fedora install without a hitch. I think I'm gonna go for the Garuda install today after I finish backing things up. Excited!

Woah, you were involved in the project! That's really cool. I've had Garuda on my mind for a while, and earlier today I was able to boot it off the live USB with NVIDIA proprietary drivers. That's a really good sign for me, so I think I'm gonna go for it once I've backed things up.

I have an ASUS ROG laptop running Fedora 39 right now. The reason Fedora is popular with these laptops is that the controller that switches between the two graphics cards is native to Fedora. It's explicitly recommended on the site.

EDIT: It looks like there are more distros that work on ROG laptops since I did it. Pretty cool!

It's part of the training. People are happier when they have food in their mouths, so that's why waitstaff wait until your mouth is full before asking. That way, they can avoid complaints.

I'm saving this comment for when I feel ready to do that kind of work. I need it

 

I've been using Fedora for a couple of months now, and have been loving it. Very soon after I jumped into this community (among other Linux communities) and started laughing at all the people saying "KDE rules, GNOME drools," and "GNOME is better, KDE is for babies." But then I thought, "Why not give KDE a try? The worst that happens is I go back to using GNOME."

Now I get it. The level of customization is incredible, it's way faster than GNOME, and looks beautiful too. At this point, I'm not going back.

I'll happily contribute to the playground fight over desktop environments. KDE rules, GNOME drools.

 

Conservative activist Christopher Rufo, who is a close ally of Florida governor and Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis, hosted a social media debate in which one participant argued that conservatives should cooperate with a hypothetical white nationalist dictator “in order to destroy the power of the left”.

Rufo, a Manhattan Institute fellow who has been a hugely influential figure in DeSantis’ culture war policies in Florida, did not disagree with the sentiments. Instead he commended speakers for their “thoughtful points” and presenting the discussion as a model fo
