    Okay, aside from all the distro advice, I have some practical install advice.

    There’s a program called Ventoy. At ventoy.net

    Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files. With Ventoy, you don’t need to format the disk over and over, you just need to copy the ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files to the USB drive and boot them directly. You can copy many files at a time and Ventoy will give you a boot menu to select them

    Most distros these days have a live CD option, meaning you can run the distro and test how it feels without actually committing to an install.

    So, take all the distro options here and throw them all on a thumb drive with ventoy installed, then you can simply boot into each one.

    Now, my personal fav distro is called Garuda. It excells at gaming, and can do everything you want, but will put a red blinking icon in the task bar if you don’t update every week or so.

    Garuda is Arch based.





  • Except you really don’t. Hiroshima was a tiny bomb compared to what’s currently aimed at you.

    A thermonuclear missile can start a fire storm, that’s a fire that creates it’s own weather patterns. This fire storm will be the size of a US state. From a single missile.

    Each state has dozens of missiles aimed at it, just waiting for the launch order.

    The same sort of devastation will hit all of Europe, Russia, China, and basically the entire northern hemisphere.

    It doesn’t matter if you’re in a hardened bunker either, because you’ll just cook alive inside. That’s if your bunker survives at all, because there’s no bunker on earth that can survive a direct hit. Not under the White House, not NORAD, not even most deep mines.

    And since every single nuclear power is “launch on warning”, we’re likely fucked. At any time, we are less than 30 minutes from complete extinction.

    But since there’s literally nothing we can do about it, I just don’t think about it.


  • The break-up was a little different… Chiang Kai Shek was just as much of a monster as Mao. He was just a capitalist monster so the west supported him.

    He was just as much of a monster after he was driven off of the mainland.

    He and Reverend Moon directly funded literal Nazi death squads in South America.

    But that fucker is dead, and Taiwan is a functional democracy, unlike the mainland.

    They don’t want to “unify”, they can see what happens to places China “unifies” with.







  • Epstein started his model trafficking agency in the Early 2000s.

    Trump started his model trafficking agency in the late 90s, but was using his pagents for much the same starting in the mid 90s.

    John Casablancas started the first model trafficking agency in the late 60s.

    Trump joined in with Casablancas in the late 80s, early 90s, and likely introduced Epstein as well, but Epstein might have had a different in, a man named Jean-luc Brunel.

    Brunel and Epstein owned MC2 modeling together, but Epstein was a hidden partner.

    Brunel was also the sort of guy who really loved to drug and rape women and girls. Casablancas, a pedo rapist himself, thought that Brunel went to far.



  • Actually… Yes, but only for saying that Julian Assange isn’t a hero to be worshiped.

    He had a good idea, but his ties to Russia taint everything.

    Per the fact that he’s repeatedly turned down leaks critical of Russia.

    There’s a certain type of person who strongly believes in binaries. They rightly see that the US is shit, and somehow believe that makes anyone who “stands up to the US” automatically good.

    It’s half of the Tankie mentality. The other half is actively cheering for dictators and the murder of “non-conformists”, whatever shape they take.

    On a final note, https://ddosecrets.com/ is what WikiLeaks looks like with protections for innocents mentioned in the leaks.

    WikiLeaks has such a policy, but have leaked names of activists and whistleblowers several times now.
