  • For anyone who doesn’t know who this was, it’s a photo of Ted Kaczynski - the unabomber- a terrorist who over approx. 20 years mailed and placed a series of bombs targeting universities and other technology-focused places and people, killing three and permanently injuring more than a dozen others.

    Posting him here is a reference to his manifesto in which he lays out many grievances against technology and industrialization, including increased ability for governments to surveil their citizens.

    I just wanna point out that while cowboy bebop is incredible, Fae Valentine’s outfit is skimpy to the point that she’s wandering around with her shorts unbuttoned in basically every scene where she’s not in a disguise (and she’s only staying in that top through the power of double-sided tape). By modern standards it’s really not great towards the women characters (except possibly ed).





  • Is it really that bad, though? Compared to spending hours fighting with 3rd party drivers or wine or etc. every time there’s a change to the software in question, restarting to a different partition is pretty trivial. Configure both OSs to mirror non-sys files to network storage or a shared partition (and there’s plenty of ready-made utilities for this) and it’s honestly a pretty easy solution to being stuck with “iNdUsTrY sTaNdArD” software.

    I get where you’re coming from, I do. The only reason I’m saying this is because the difficulty in dual booting is often brought up when discussing switching, and it really discourages people that are curious about trying linux (but are still tied to the apple/M$ world) from making the switch when they’re constantly told how hard it is to use both.
