    I have this in my area, which was weird coming from actual big cities with way more dense traffic.

    It’s like the courtesy from the shared misery of, “We’re all in this shit together” never got a chance. Instead people here seemingly never evolved beyond the “If I tailgate this one car, the 100 in front will disappear” phase.

    When you’re overtaking someone going slow, but they speed up next to you, so you’re stuck now and will miss the exit. Just pretend they were probably lonely and just needed someone next to them for a while.

    I’m against it lol.

    I think anyone that doesn’t realise there is not “best” in distros is either stuck in the consumer mindset or is so narcissistic they think everything they do is the best without ever considering that perhaps few people are actually like them.

    Truth is, there’s a distro for everyone. It’s super easy to test drive and hop. We’re spoiled for choice. If someone wants to contest someone else’s choice, they’re an idiot and can go back to closed source where over-researching and min-maxing is a requirement to get what you want, not a choice.





  • When I was younger, I had my Boomer in-laws decide that I would drive because I had drunk the least—I had drunk plenty. And this just seemed like something normal and I’d just nonchalantly say, “Oh, that makes sense. That’s smart.”

    They were upset that I wouldn’t, insisted they would, and got more upset that I ordered a cab.

    Fortunately, after they realised they’d lost, they sided with the idea being really stupid and irresponsible, but I think that’s just because they got morally caught out by a 22-year old.
