I just re-read the trilogy His Dark Materials. The first and last time I read it, I was very religious. I loved the first book with its criticism of churches doing evil in the name of god, but was disappointed with the other two when I realized they were anti-god, not just anti-evil-church.
This time I read it as an atheist. I particularly enjoyed Mary's description of how she went from nun to atheist. It has put me in the mood to hear other people's stories of leaving religion. -

All that, plus the “gay people are going to hell” stuff.

@datenwolf yep, you're one of the users who doesn't know

1. Yes
2. No
3. No - specifically those "features" are often XY-problem emanations
4. Yes, and hence contradicts 2
5. Yes, sort of. The fact that you actually can shell script X11, but (by design, not directly) Wayland / re competitors is often reason enough to not use it.

@francesco @joe_vinegar Tu per via di filesystem e affini sfondi una porta aperta, stai parlando con una che è nata col dos. Ora, secondo me dipende molto dal dispositivo che stai usando. Il chiavi in mano, non è sbagliato di per sé; l'errore madornale è che si ha tutto preconfezionato senza dare l'opportunità di personalizzare: puoi muoverti da qua a là e non puoi far altro.

I've gone KDE Neon for my mom's laptop. It's Ubuntu-based and tuned by the KDE team itself.
I don't know how much it has been following Ubuntu's snap-enshittification though, so I'm not sure the latest version is as good.

@MeaningfulBits it will ease things for Binance establishing more of a US presence, and for the Trumps in doing business with them. it could also potentially help CZ return as CEO to Binance
