  • Well, as you noticed a lot has changed since Debian in the 90s. While Manjaro has a lot of problems, and while I’ve found I need to reinstall it every 6 months or so because I’m not very l33t, it’s still honestly very easy and very straightforward, and definitely better than Arch if you don’t know what you’re doing.

    If you approach Manjaro with a plan for regularly backing up your data, you can reinstall it with ease whenever you need to, and the reinstallation will be fast and easy. It works out of the box with Steam, and it doesn’t ask you to pay close attention to it’s backend while not having the problems you noticed with Ubuntu, and best of all it’s free and it’s not Windows. I run Manjaro and I’m pretty happy with it overall, when though I’m sure I’d be better served with Arch if I ever took the time to really figure it out properly. Good luck, I hope whatever you pick works out well for you.

    Only if they politick like humans do. Perhaps elves don’t think politics makes any sort of sense and instead defer to ancient kingships á la Tolkien. No elf is creating intrigue around Galadriel or Elrond, they are just as they are, and are revered for their ancient wisdom.

    Or perhaps the idea of hierarchy itself is completely alien to them. After a few thousand years a lot of the trappings of mortal power may just not be of any interest anymore, and every elf is a sovereign unto themselves.







  • By and large, I would say this is not true. Ask any random folks who Pinochet and the Chicago Boys were, or ask about MKULTRA or COINTELPRO, or Operation Cóndor, and the best you’re likely to get is a blank stare.

    I think a most of the more terrible things the US has done is known by highly educated folks who were given the opportunities to learn them on specialized education tracks, but not by most folks on average, which really sucks =/
