I didn't use knoppix a lot, but I did use Mandriva more, and then Ubuntu was released and I daily drove it back then

Wtf reading about this, such a weird system

Linux running on top of a mach micro kernel, kind of like paravirtualized. And then the userspace and xfree86 ran on linux? And FVWM? How was that?

And then you could run Lisa apps?

When was this? Arch Linux was initially released in 2002, about a year before I tried knoppix for the first time.

What was your first distro, unless you used Linux before distros, if so what was your first installation experience like?

My conspiracy radar is beeping...

My thought process when armchair checking out conspiracies has two points

  1. How many people are needed to hold a secret?
  2. Does someone rich benefit from the conspiracy?

So how many people need to hold the secret if it (buying votes) can be done with fake or stolen credit cards? Very few, but its a lot of votes to buy, but that would just cost more money

So does someone rich benefit from this? Well the Israeli government really benefits if Europeans think other Europeans are okay with Israel.

Am I antisemitic? No dont be reficulous, I'm not against any religion or ethnicity, I'm just against genocide no matter who does it

If you can't pay your own bills, then you can't eat enough to be able to work. So no

 

I hope this fluff post will be allowed if I actually share some facts about DnD and etymology

Balders Gate is named after the Norse god Baldr/Balder/Baldur

Baldur in DnD is named after a legendary explorer Baldurian from Faerûn, name obviously inspired by the norse god's name.

The word Gate means street in Norwegian, as well in Swedish/Danish/Icelandish but its spelled differently in those languages

The word Gate in English is a cognate with the word Gate in Norwegian, meaning they stem from the same root word, incidentally they are also spelled the same way today, which is not a requirement to be a cognate, Gate in English is also a cognate with the word for street in other nordic languages even though they spell it differently.

Swedish still spell it the same as in Old Norse, Gata, which at the that point meant path, road, or way, which is how it is used in current day nordic languages, but you can see how the English word Gate is now used for an entrance with a door of some kind. Other English definitions for the word gate, like a manner of walking or even a path, among others also stem from the same root word.
