  • “highly configurable” and “very little effort to start using” don’t blend together in car mechanics, and they don’t in Linux either.

    I was going to suggest Gentoo or Arch because they’re the standard for “highly configurable” but they really demand some effort to start using them.

    Also, so far, only Debian really, really, cares about open source, most distros don’t mind copyrighted video codecs or proprietary GPU drivers if they make the user’s life easier.

    Nothing against people who prefer meat substitutes

    That’s good.

    I do think they should be brave and just abandon meat altogether

    That’s bad.

    Now, firstly, thank you for defining a lot of people cowards.

    Secondly, while I like indian food, I like meat more. And I liked it since forever. If I can have the delicious taste of meat in my plate without killing an animal, that’s great. Fantastic! I’m eagerly waiting for lab crafted meat any day. I’m willing to pay it more than real meat, because I’m not fond of killing living beings to eat them. But if that’s not yet possible, I’d still have my steak and my hamburger.

    You think leather is a desire?

    You think people kill animals to obtain leather because it’s cool?

    Leather has many purposes and advantages, it’s economically and practically sane to use it or mimick its features, even with fake leather.

    A desire, he said… Sometimes I don’t get people anymore.

    I have a very, very old italian recipe book that my mom used when she was younger. I’m talking about 1980 edition. The book is about 200 recipes, 200 different names and a lot of different types of pasta. The last page, there’s this one, single recipe, simply called “The vegetarian recipe” and that’s all. Made me laugh and think that today would never be allowed to be printed this way.
