Definitely the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy

How can they claim the design is theirs when they based the drawing on design by Bungie?

Like Christianity did you mean?

That said, I don’t disagree with the sentiment - the respect should come both ways and the imigrants should respect the native culture, but that also doesn’t mean they havento give up their own.

Local culture always changes in time. Take Europe, it’s culture steeped and deeply influenced by Christianity in many countries. And yet Christianity is a religion with Middle East origins. People just don’t look at the bigger picture - or don’t want to. The change in the past was not happening to them, but it is now and that’s what matters.

Axe is cooler than hammer as well.

I’m sure fines are under “other expenses” in their financials…

Would love to see it though

In the grand scheme of things the pyramids were built relatively recently, but I’d still consider it quite long ago

They don’t relly know better. Windows is familiar, Linux sounds too complicated and techy. Hell, I was thinking the same and I’m reasonably tech savvy. It’s infinitely more friendly than I’d ever expect.

People are afraid of change and unknown. Though ironically Linux might actually be closer to the original Windows experience that Win11 is (speaking from my limited experience with Mint)

You are correct, but on the other hand it doesn’t hurt to make the average person aware of alternatives.

Can be especially effective when the person buys a new PC and needs to do all the stuff you mention anyway. Yes, it is still a new OS, but honestly, it’s not that different - especially if the person remembers older Windows versions, it might just feel like going to familiar places (I know this is something my wife would really apreciate as she hates the constant changes of how things look). Obviously depends on distro, only have experience with Mint.

I’m saying this from a position of a resonably tech savvy, but not your average tech nerd (at least knowledge wise lol). Sure there are differences under hood but I don’t think the average user would really notice them that much.

All I needed to read is the threat was told by Medvedev. The guy constantly spews crazy shit

I saw a video on this and this is pretty much how I remember it explained.

If he hired him he would have to have infinite faith in his sharpshooter capabilities

They need to make it nice first, to reel people in. Once they are in and invested, that’s when ads start.

There are normal cheeses, there are lactose free cheeses and vegan cheeses as well. I think that’s all possible bases covered? Beside, cheese is delicious (I have yet to have a delicious vegan cheese but I’m told they exist - probably didn’t get here yet or too pricey for me)

• but that’s beside the point :D).

I vote cheese day, your logic is bullet proof.

If you are from EU, you might try envoking the GDPR maybe? Though most make it incredibly difficult afaik

Not for self defense (obviously) and due to personal reasons on hiatus currently (if all goes well I will start again next year) - but I do Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA).

It’s fencing, but mainly with longsword (tried sword&buckler and a bit of rapier), techniques recreated based on historical fencing books and manuals. Really fun!

I’m always pedantic, except when I’m not 😂

So you are not always pedantic. So you are not really pedantic if you said you are always but are not… unless you were pedantic about saying you are not always pedantic?
