I couldn't make Windows Vista work on my laptop I spent almost a year saving for. I've been on Linux full time since. Thanks Ballmer!

The (48 hour) protests just communicate that u/spez can fuck us over 363 days of the year. The only thing that will work is leaving.

The ability to hide fields is such a nice feature.

It's important to actually read what's in the packages. The AUR saves me time installing that I can use up front confirming.
