Why are you not disturbed by the fact that when you push down on a chair it pushes you back?

Ah, you’re viewing it as a timetravellers’ dilemma.

My view was more that we’re an observer in the lagrangian solution to the differential equation we call life. The electron, being a constant in the equation. Remove the electron, you alter the equation, therefore destroying known life.

I detect you therefore you’re no longer a wave.

How could you destroy 2, if there’s only one?

We are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively.

We all understand the point. But it’s important to question the source. It suggests a gullability, or fabrication.

Stochastic parrot is a term describing your experience with AI.

I’ve an aunt like that, ready to engage in every conversation despite not understanding the topic. Regugitating whatever she saw on her tv, in her own words.

I’d suggest to start with ubuntu. I’d the distro that has the most guides/resources available.

Personally, I prefer xubuntu. Which is ubuntu, but with a slimmed down UI.

I’ve heard good things about https://www.linuxmint.com/, maybe read about that one too.

To get started, I always use Rufus (https://rufus.ie/en/) which downloads the required files, and makes a bootable USB flash drive.

Is it an albini or a species?

I’m self employed.

Found out I’m depressed, decided to reduce work to 3 days a week.

Raised prices to reduce clients. Turns out I now make more, doing less work. It is what it is.

I like Xubuntu. But I’ve no experience on how well it does with touch screens.

I’ve met people who don’t know what a URL is.

The kind of people that google “facebook” when they want to visit facebook.

Completely flabbergasted that we run internal services not indexable by google.

Had the same issue with outlook last weeks. 60% CPU usage, doing nothing.

You’re confusing cause and effect, I fear

Everything I’d been thinking about was our future together, now none of that means anything.

In the same boat 2 years in. It hurts. Hope it gets better some day.
