Yeah, I mean desktop environment when I say "UI." It's less about customizability and more about stability for me. Dolphin just crashes way too much for me in KDE Plasma. Like, anytime I do a search. I just go to the command line instead, which is unfortunate for a UI.

Compositing with X server is a mess with multiple monitors running with different refresh rates. Need to try Wayland and see if that's any better.

Also the snap-to on the edges for organizing multiple windows isn't quite as smooth. Still a million times better than Mac OSX.

But, it's open, free, comparable to Windows DE, and yeah you're right, much more customizable.

Also to be fair it's been awhile since I've given Gnome or some other DE a shot.

It's a hypocritical contradiction, which sounds great for story and analogy potential.

It's so good that even Windows has the Linux (optionally) embedded now.

Still like the Windows GUI the best, though KDE Plasma comes close.

Honestly I feel like it began with First Contact, but yeah Nu Trek is largely unfortunate.

Still kinda like Star Trek Beyond though. Probably most I enjoyed a Star Trek movie since The Undiscovered Country

I think you might want to rephrase that. The plan isn't really to "release contaminated water," but rather treated and diluted water.

Leftist spaces are also more likely to express backlash at anything that may contaminate the environment, with good reason. You need to consider your audience, and consequently, your rhetoric.

Plant the seeds. Don't get dragged into a protracted argument if it doesn't turn into a good faith conversation. Take a deep breath. It's ok. Things take time.

I looked up the Simpsons "USSR comes back" clip on YouTube the other day. It was full of comments like "wow the Simpsons really called it!"

It boggles my mind.
