James Montgomery Doohan (/ˈduːən/; March 3, 1920 – July 20, 2005) was a Canadian actor and author, best known for his role as Montgomery “Scotty” Scott in the television and film series Star Trek. Doohan’s characterization of the Scottish chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise was one of the most recognizable elements in the Star Trek franchise, and inspired many fans to pursue careers in engineering and other technical fields.[1] He also made contributions behind the scenes, such as the initial development of the Klingon and Vulcan languages. Prior to his acting career, Doohan served in the 14th Field Artillery Regiment of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division.
As a Canadian, with the preface that some of my best friends are Americans and I mean this with all due love and respect, we see you as the Ferengi not the Klingons.
I know the “best linux for gaming” is probably one of the most common questions, but I have heard that some distro can have issues with some hardware, I have a crappy old PC with an integrated radeon R7, which distro would you recommend?
The entire point of this post is I want to leave windows, I am sick and tired of microsoft spyware and bloatware slowing my already old computer down, and Windows 10 will not be supported for much longer.
Seriously why do you think I even brought up switching to linux if I wasn’t trying to leave windows?
Yeah, I’ve tried, and it doesn’t help. Also that does nothing for the fact that they are going to stop supporting Win10 sooner than later, and since my computer won’t run Win11 that means losing all security. Not to mention the microsoft using my data for nefarious reasons, constantly adding new bloatware garbage, and harvesting my data to use to train their AI.
I am done with windows, I am done with microsoft, and why am I having to explain my reasons and motivations for this in the Linux lemmy of all places? Do you work for microsoft or something???
My entire life I have met hundreds of people that don’t mind pineapple pizza, I have been to dozens of school, work, and social functions where there was pineapple pizza, and nobody has ever complained. Literally decades of people eating it without complaining, or not eating it but also not complaining.
I never heard a single human being mention it until it became an internet meme, and the only people that have ever mentioned it IRL were chronically online individuals.
But sure it’s me not knowing enough people, what a fucking rude and condescending thing to say.
More likely you surround yourself with petty people who complain about minor things, and chronically online trolls who think their le epic memes are reality. Can you imagine complaining about what other people eat? What does it matter to you, how egotistical are you that you want to complain that other people eat pineapple on pizza, what a childish thing to do.
Also bonus points for hypocritically saying my experience can’t be real, while yours is objective reality. No, you are just from a region or social group that has abandoned civility and politeness, and cannot possibly fathom anyone disagreeing with them without being rude and condescending to them.
