    Onomatopaeia.

    Being treated like shit isn't an exclusively female thing either. Nevertheless countless women have managed to break into male-dominated fields despite us evil patriarchs triggering them every step of the way.

    Apart from the whole of Western Europe since 1945 that is. I'm not going to Godwin by talking about right-wing extremism's similar examples of authoritarian mass murder.

    We don't often agree but in this case well said! I miss the old left that tried to change the world for the better instead of hounding people on Twitter for micro aggressions.

    Both genders are victims of violence and men are also victims of gender-based prejudice such as being more likely to be imprisoned, homeless or to commit suicide. I'm not sure how avoiding uncomfortable situations or hiding certain things is going to empower women in any way. It just teaches them to be victims.

    Corporations will buy these by the truckload. There are so many use cases for a tablet that integrates seamlessly with all your other systems.

    Having multiple RDP sessions in separate virtual desktops works very nicely for me.

    Your evidence for this, I suppose, is the UK where handguns were banned about 15 years ago. The thing is that hardly anyone owned a handgun before they were banned and required a licence to get. You can still get shotguns here legally but again you need a licence. The rise in violent crime is down to far more complex factors than not being able to shoot each other.

    Helpful? Re-read what you wrote above and tell me how that was in any way helpful. Would you write it to anyone but a white man? Are we not allowed to be unhappy? Feel left out or disadvantaged? I'm sick of hearing I'm the bad guy and that I should just "man up" and stop "whining". No wonder the male suicide rate is 4 times the female one with wankers like you about.

    It's this lack of humanity and sympathy for the so-called privileged that's driven me away from what's currently occupying the left. It sounds like this man's disability has had a negative effect on his life and all you do is shit on him because he's a white man. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    Until they try to install some Windows-only software such as Photoshop or World of Warcraft or try to use any of the many devices that either don't have Linux support or the support isn't as good as the Windows version such as graphics cards.

    I used to use Linux as a primary desktop but it's not practical nowadays. There's too much time spent fucking about with holy wars and not enough time fixing shit.

    UK cyclists are just as stupid. I'm amazed there aren't more fatalities. There was an attempt to bring in a law that would assume driver guilt in the case of a collision. If that ever comes in, I'm getting a dash cam because I'm not being held responsible for some dickhead falling under my wheels because they didn't think one way Street signs applied to them. It would also be nice if the police stopped them from riding through pedestrian areas at break neck speed.
