Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

thatās the one I ended up grabbing, and from the setup-only usage Iāve been giving it, itās surprisingly good
iāve installed it for my 70+ grandparents, they had no problems with it at all for a couple of years. (granted they just read news on it) iāve used it on a two laptops for a 10y+ now and outside of typical linux problems that require minor configuring (bluetooth and wifi driver related mostly) it all works since day one, batteries included. for a couple of years timeshift is bundled in ootb so even if you fuck up there are backups
