I have switched to using helix, so no matter which distro I am on I need to change it to be my default by setting the EDITOR env var.

Its a double win for them. More money for their war machine and disadvantage the undesirables. Because they are fucking fascist Nazis.

I don't understand why they are still in power.

Depends on which classification system you use. Botaically it is a fruit. But culinarily it is a vegetable.

I think it forgot the wheels. Those are just wheel shaped stands. No tires at all. The first image looks like it might just have shit clearance for the road but the later ones don't have any tires at all...

Yeah... Ubuntu packages are never up to date on release date. They freeze them months before so they can iron out any bugs with the versions they picked. You don't pick Ubuntu or any point release distro to get up to date packages.

If you can drop a .env file on a server. You can drop a well formed .ini file instead. I don't see any reason to ever parse a env file as a ini file.

The ownership model is Rust's core innovation. Every heap allocation has exactly one owner — the variable binding that "holds" it. Ownership can be moved to another binding, at which point the original is invalidated. It can never be silently copied (unless the type implements Copy).

While each of these is not wrong in isolation, together they are. If we are talking about data stored on the heap that last bit is not true. Types that hold a raw pointer cannot be made Copy. Only simple types can be made Copy, ones that don't own any non direct data and as such can be stored on the stack and simply memcpyed to get a copy.

The problem is - users pay for Windows only once

That is not in the slightest true. They pay once per computer. And people go through multiple computers in their lifetime. So it is not at all tied to birthrate.

Very few people buy licenses directly. Most people buy it pre-installed with an OEM license that is tied to that computer.

LSF is not a distro. It is a instruction manual and teaching aid. Don't use it as a base for you main OS. And IMO Gentoo does not really teach you more then Arch does. It gives a bit of flexibility that not many care about (how things are compiled) at a very big cost (of having to compile everything yourself). I would not use either unless compiling things is your hobby.

Sure, try them in a VM if you really want to. But I would not really consider that moving on from your current distro nor do you really need to do that.

I mean all entertainment is really there to kill time. Thats really the main point of having fun. I would say things are worse then that. They (at least tripple-A games) are designed to extract as much cash as they can and get you addicted.

GTK does not mean libadwaita. That is a addition on top of GTK. Many of the GTK programs and environments don't use libadwaita. It is mostly only the GNOME stuff that does.
