TIL, hiking to Mordor can be dangerous :P
New Zealand. The whole country feels like a national park especially the south island. However, you would need to rent a car to get to and between a lot of places.
I’d just re-install Windows over the top of the fucked up install normally. It was a bit easier to recover from, and a bit harder to fuck up
It was similar for me, but not quite the same. The thing I hated was starting from scratch. I’m very much not a distro hopper. Back in the day, I enjoyed the challenge of trying to troubleshoot issues and get the system working again, and that kept me interested, but eventually, I’d hit a problem I couldn’t resolve, and I’d have to start again from scratch, and at that point, I’d just go back to Windows.
Now, I still get to do the same thing. If I break it, I get to learn how I broke it and try and fix it, and I find that process compelling. But because I’m using btrfs restore points now, I don’t get to the point where I have to start again from scratch. So I can work at solving it to the limit of my abilities, with confidence that if I can’t work it out, it’s not a huge issue.
That also sounds like a good way to stop learning!
The “starting over” part is what made it take so long for linux to “stick” with me.
Once it became “restore from an earlier image”, it was a game changer!
Existing stress, changing temperature and shifting building structure. Any and all of those can cause it

For there to be a meaningful criticism to be made against people who don’t adopt, adoption would need to be accessible to folk who want kids.
In Australia, queer folk have only been able to adopt since 2017. Even for the straight folk, accessing adoption is next to impossible for most folk. It takes years and lots of money, and it involves the couple (only couples, not singles) being greenlit by the birth parents, which means queer and racial bias is another hurdle.
In theory, you can do international adoption, but that has to be by the books, or the adoption isn’t recognised. And and that means dealing with the adoption systems of two countries. It takes time and even more money that adopting locally, and most countries don’t allow same sex parents to adopt.
Visualize a bunch of children. Some are on the streets and some are in foster care centers
Kids on the streets can’t be adopted. The system doesn’t work that way.
And kids in the foster system can rarely be adopted. It’s sometimes possible, but if adoption is your goal, fostering isn’t the way to go about it, because most of the time, adoption won’t be possible. Mostly, foster kids get moved around, and returned to their birth families after a period of time. Fostering is laudable, but it’s not adoption.
And all of this altogether means that the adoption system is inherently biased towards rich, white straight couples. If that’s not you, you’re effectively locked out of the system. And on top of that, it doesn’t even help the kids in your hypothetical scenario
I mean, I’m impressed that someone had the time to thoroughly try out all of those distros in two months to enable a meaningful comparison!

Using this approach, everything that can’t be disproven must exist
That’s what the different sorting algorithms are for. Trying sorting by “active” or “scaled” and see how it goes
Sure, if you fall out with a group, you might end up shifting your views when a new group you join sees things slightly differently. Lots of progressive groups fight and argue with each other over the specifics, and it often gets quite heated. But that’s not the same thing as radically shifting your moral compass to point in another direction altogether.
Photography, and if we want to stretch the definition, storytelling (medium agnostic)
But whenever I get downvoted and shouted down for voicing an opinion that aligns with conservatives, or simply isn’t “leftist” enough, it makes me want to distance myself from “leftist” ideology and adds to my disillusionment.
Why does disillusionment with the people involved in a movement influence your opinion on the ideals behind the movement?
Should the idea itself be bigger than the people that espouse it? If empathy and compassion are worthy goals, you don’t just give up on them because other folk don’t display them. If rejecting sexism is a worthy goal, you don’t dial up the sexism because some folk think you don’t go far enough in rejecting it.
