  • It probably won’t be.

    Not only is the agreement between the UK and Mauritius on the brink of collapsing (bizarrely, the UK is trying to get rid of territory and Mauritius doesn’t particularly want it very much), but there’s so much reliance on the .io domain that it’s unlikely to be removed.

    Especially because tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Apple make use of it.






  • You don’t need it, though. Who actually verifies the md5sum of their ISO?

    Can you install without doing it? Yes. Therefore it’s not needed.

    Needed: necessary. A requirement to perform a duty.

    Plus you regularly need it in Linux, and you don’t in Windows. That’s the point.

    Completely untrue. I have to use PowerShell and the registry quite frequently (at least every month or two). I don’t have to use the terminal in Linux. Ever.

    You are just making shit up.

    Do you actually think, sigh, ‘normies’ use the command line, powershell, or registry in Windows? The whole point is you can use it but don’t have to. On linux you’re forced to use it at times.

    Sigh yes, sigh they sigh do sigh, because sigh shit sigh breaks sigh and sigh you sigh need sigh to sigh go sigh there sigh to sigh fix sigh it.

    Sigh.

    Why do you keep making shit up? I’ve not used it on my PC for years. I don’t even have it installed. That’s how unnecessary it is.

    Where’s this “force”?

    Why are you lying so much? Were you never taught to never lie?




  • Americans seem get really weird with the whole ancestry thing. There appears to be a desire to look into your family history and find something “exotic”, which basically seems to mean non-English - I imagine because that’s perceived as the ‘default’ ancestry, so-to-speak.

    Honestly, who the fuck cares? What difference does it make? Nationalities aren’t Skyrim races. You don’t get special abilities. It makes no difference whether your ancestors were British/Irish/Spanish/French/whatever.

    E: This is obviously not intended as a hateful statement, people. You have to understand that the rest of the world doesn’t care about this, so we’re confused when we look to the US and see them take it so seriously. We’re especially puzzled when Americans say “I’m Irish” because their great great great uncle bought a pint of Guiness in the 1870s. It’s an alien concept to the rest of the planet.
