My Dell XPS-15 9560 is my most loved laptop ever. Great Linux support, although not the fingerprint reader which does sting a bit. I’ve only needed to replace the battery after 5 or so years, it’s currently about 7 years old and running as new.
Literally any laptop will be able to run just Linux with TUI my dude.
This is satire, right?
Thanks for the incredibly funny mental picture!
Okay that’s great!
Now I get “gore gon”, sounding like “gorgon”
What is the first one? I still don’t get it.
but we all had that one kid at our school who was reaaaaaally close to

Hm. I suppose you could see it like that philosophically.
I’d say it more like, you have not won yet until you check and see you’ve won, but I guess that train of thought works, as well.

As a sidenote, looking up what the mathematical symbol actually means gave me this gem
Even the Wikipedia community refuses to acknowledge this!
You’re giving him too much credit. He’ll probably call it “X”, as well, grabbing some other Unicode letter, but he’ll keep using the reddit.com domain. Y’know, like twitter.com.
I personally basically never have a reason to mention the site when taking to another person, but if/when I do, I’ll call it Twitter just because calling it ex was confusing in almost every context.
Because it’s text.
There are more kind of letters then just our latin alphabet. Cyrillic, aboriginal Canadian and even Chinese and Japanese can be typed by just text for instance (日本語の例え)
In the same vein, mathematical and other scientific symbols can be typed using just text, and 𝕏 is the symbol that stands in place for arbitrary distance in a formula.
Basically, it’s just a (mathematical) letter, it can be typed.
That’s also why their new CEO had difficulties copyrighting it; it’s just a letter, after all!
There is no concencus, slightly more people oppose to rename the page, but only sightly.
I hope they keep it up, to avoid confusion, and to spite their current, dickhead CEO
