No keep going, I like what you’re cooking.

Mayhaps, but you can also do this:

sudo chown me /usr/lib

Owned the Libs 👈😎👈

(doesn’t ‘usr’ mean ‘universally shared resources’?)

Those newfangled immutable distros might benefit them, since they’re unlikely to want to or care about modification, and it’s extra security.

Set up the web browser with a strong ad-blocker, maybe whitelisting YouTube since non-techy people are unlikely to know what to do if youtube throws up a stink about the adblocker.

Set up auto-updates maybe. For safety and such.

Otherwise make sure it looks like a dead ringer for whatever they are already used to (usually Windows) – Same background, icons in the same places and looking similar if not the same, panels set up the same way, etc. – This is easier with Cinnamon or KDE Plasma. Gnome… Even if you like it, it’s too different, yanno? Unless they’re coming from Mac, and even then it’s not the same.

P.S.: Lovely background of a gay bird prince. <3

Yes

It’s actually a really fun cartoon.

I find it amusing when people refer to their spouse as “THE wife”

It’s like they’re all married to the same immortal and omnipresent gestalt entity.

En Garde! and Slay the Princess

Both scratch very specific itches for me

(also Boureoisie is hard as fuck to spell)

Linux: you’ve been using it for years and don’t even know it

Evopsych type dudes.

They made up a whole pseudoscience to “explain” their inability to form meaningful bonds with other humans. And in the process broadcast to everyone they are on the spectrum but refuse to accept it.

Like my dude, I too have trouble intuiting the rules of proper social interaction and wonder where the manual everyone but me got is. But it’s not because of some made up bullshit about the pleistocene. It’s because I’m autistic, and it’s high time you got your ass checked.

Actual gods, or do self-proclaimed gods that are actually something else count?

Cuz if the latter, Final Fantasy 1 (same year, few months earlier) might be Patient Zero for killing “gods” in jRPGs.

We as a society have evolved beyond the need for dungeons and dragons /hj

LISA the painful.

I know it’s happened a couple of times, but it’s not the usual practice. AFAIK when someone is condemned, the method of killing them is already set from the get-go.

MS word, Telegram, Notepad++.

Exactly that. It acts like the hand tool in a pdf reader, mouse has to keep moving.

The Firefox one is enabled already. I don’t do Chrome(ium) unless I absolutely have no choice.

… But yeah I’d like to enable it for other applications. Dunno if it is possible though.

I actually have one of those Logi mice with unlockable scrollwheels

… I only lock it for playing FPSes, to use the wheel to switch weapons. Otherwise it stays unlocked for minimal resistance.

Call it a reverse curb-cut effect, I first discovered it when I was a teenager, and back then I’d sometimes use it out of laziness or because it was quicker (ah how I miss being young and immune to pain)

Then when time happened and I started having arthritis flareups, it was there to help me, and I was like “heck, that’s a neat thing for accessibility”

Eh?

I don’t paste things as often as I scroll. Plus, my brain associates copying and pasting with the keyboard commands, from 20+ years of doing – That.

Edit-to-answer-your-edit: My mouse has 7 buttons, I’m golden.
