If donald trump hasn't contracted cancer from his diet coke habit it's probably safe enough

Aspartame is gross anyway. Makes me mouth-sad.

I'm eternally grateful!

Does your normal masturbation routine not involve getting semen on your hand? What do you mean "by accident?"

Don't care, it made me violently ill and I will never use it

No disrespect to those who do, including the kbin dev. And the friendica dev! And who could forget Nextcloud.

I simply do not have the fortitude

Vegan is a vanity label. It doesn't matter. Are you struggling to decide if it's ethical to eat a jellyfish? Well, don't bother. There's no good reason to eat a jellyfish in the first place.

We really need radical change here in the imperial core.

I have to use Windows for work, and I choose to use Linux for all of my personal devices. Windows is trying very hard to corral me into using bing, edge, cortana, etc. and gets in my way when I try to use the tools I prefer instead. It intentionally obscures what its doing with updates and security. That is unacceptable. This is my computer, not theirs.

No Linux distro that I've tried does any of that shit. They have never tried to push my behavior in one direction or another, they aren't watching everything I do to help their product teams develop an even more annoying desktop. The various Linux distros I've used have felt like nothing but a way to let me use my damn computer.

I do have a small partition with Windows on it to play the occasional game I can't run on Linux with Proton. Thanks, Valve!

I see what you're saying now. Which dell laptop is it, by the way?

I suspect what people are assuming is that your laptop might have some closed source firmware or BIOS, and I assume what System76 is saying is that this won't be true on their Virgo laptop.

I'm a framework guy myself, at least so far.

Even if that's true, that's a different computer.

Me: "It's okay to be awake at 3 AM since I'm getting a head start by thinking about the code I need to write"

Then a handful of hours later, reality ensues
