Marvel Cosmic Invasion came out today and I've been glued to it

I see. This must be The Golden Path

"Damn, that's crazy. Anyway."

How would they know the person using that VPN or VPS is from Wisconsin? That's the only place this all applies to.

Why are you choosing to come after me for that, when there are people in this very thread saying that they'll use it regardless?

I tried to answer this with my first comment

It feels like throwing "racist" on here where it doesn't exactly apply sort of dampens the impact of the word. But that's just me.

I hope I'm not coming off agressive or nothing. I'm not saying what you're doing is entirely wrong or anything because it benefits everyone to spread knowledge especially for something like this. I really dislike that it's made normal in Linux circles. But this meme is calling everyone that uses a fairly common term racist while you drop good history lessons on individual comments of people that don't know better. Maybe there's a more effective way to get your point across?

The people that now know the meaning, but are trying to argue that it doesn't matter, are no longer ignorant, and therefore don't have an excuse.

I agree, but you're meme implies that using the term at all makes you racist

The equivalent of this meme would be someone calling you a racist the very first time you ever used the term "gyped". You yourself stated you didn't know that term had racist history, so how could you have been racist?

It's a different situation when someone has knowledge of history and then goes on to use the term. That's textbook bigotry and I would agree that's also racsim, but you're casting a much wider net with this meme encompassing everyone who uses the term knowledgable or not

I agree with the overall message here; there's definitely better words for customisation of a Window Manager/Desktop Environment.

I can't agree that everyone using that term is racist though. I doubt that everyone who uses it is doing so to discriminate or abuse another race. As proven by this thread, the history of that word isn't exactly common knowledge in the spaces people are using it.

"bigot" might be a better term to describe people that know the history of the word and actively refuse to change their ways. It feels like throwing "racist" on here where it doesn't exactly apply sort of dampens the impact of the word. But that's just me.

IPv4! Hail IPv6

I settled with the distro that stays out of my way so I can get shit done. For me that's Alpine, but that's just me. Other people should use the distro that works for them.

Looking closer at the NIC, it looks like it's not flat against the board. So it's possible that the connectors aren't making clean contact. Slap some electrical tape and/or Duct tape on that so that it's flat :)
