    Well buddy it’s a bit more than that. Personally, I’m not holding it against the guy maybe he’s changed so I’m not gonna freak every time I see him but pretending that’s it is wild.

    The man in anger called some guy the n-word. No joke to it. Straight up, I’m angry so I’ll call this guy a racial slur. This, along with the constant (and it was constant) skirting with racism and Hitler which were framed as jokes made it clear that it wasn’t just a bunch of jokes. Wearing a military uniform that was as close to the Nazis as possible, constant talk of a final solution, jokes about ‘them’, German speaches, zieg heils, dog whistles, and alot more were commonplace in his videos at the time.

    You don’t just randomly shout the n word in anger for the first time on live stream.

    The guy was obviously going down the pipeline and people still don’t like him because of that. Not one joke but a constant stream of them along with a very telling instance


  • Huh, odd you can’t edit that file. You may be able to change it in the ‘menu editor’ (KMenuEdit) application however which is my goto. In the future I’d add any application specific environment variables in there instead of editing it the way you’ve done. This is likely causing issue. I could be wrong though.

    As for where is it stored, it’s usually stored in that .desktop file. It won’t be in your bashrc, or anything like it, as what you’ve done isn’t changing your system as a whole. All it does is tell plasma when you want to launch this application, first run that bit of code you’ve given in the same bash context (or whatever your default shell is. The shell that runs when you use the sh command normally). This is good because I doubt you want all GDK apps to use x11 and this environment variable should only exist for the app you want it to.

    Edit: wait, what .desktop filedid you edit? Are all GTK apps now x11? Have you tried the right click method you did before? To what effect?


  • Yoo that’s wild man doing gods (Richard Stallman) work here man.

    Great initiative nonetheless. Compared to 8 this much more secure and for programming it’s a great choice too. Bringing more life out of some old PCs, saving a school money, and forcing some kids to get creative in order to play Roblox.

    As for is it ready fr this application, programming, it has been for a while. For general, especially web based, applications it absolutely is. Of course, there are quite few things were it’s just not but for the most part Linux is a great choice.





  • Oh hey, been a bit but I’m glad you came back to this. I honestly really liked the book. Very rushed ending though I’d argue. I like a lot of what they did with the mercenaries and with nightblood along with the general lore. Everything with lightsong and blushweaver was great too but at times the book dwadled around and when it came to it, answers seemed to just be tossed together and regirgatated (can’t spell that shit). Lightning always kept me entertained though.

    I know that’s a lot of complaining but other than the end the book was very good. It is his style to have everythingfall together at the end it seems but the other four books I’ve read by him seem much more-like a bunch of pieces falling into place and a few things blowing up spectacularly than this one which felt like “and then it turned out some people are bad and the others are good. Here’s why it all happened and some lore too. They also fight. But wait? Happily ever after too.”

    I don’t regret reading it at all though. All three stories were great in their own right and the world is certainly my favourite. The system is so interesting along with the culture. I hope he revisits it.

    God, sorry for the novella, but you did make the mistake of asking me about a book. You fool.

    Took a break but now I’m 400 pages into way of kings BTW. Liking it a lot so far.

    Hamachi is easier to get others to use I’ve found. When we just want to game getting somebody to install a different application can cause frustration, anger, and a quoting mentality. Some people are just stuck in their ways.

    Doesn’t matter how easy it’s to do, how you’ll guide them through each step, some people are just stuck in their ways and many people are atleast familiar with hamachi
