This absolutely boggles my American brain that you'd have to ask permission to take your kid out of school. When I was a child my parents would call the school and let them know when I would be away for vacation as a courtesy to the administration, telling not asking.

So from a Marxist perspective, what would it be called if the social order were to be flipped rather than abolished? in c/[email protected]

I don't think there's enough bourgeoisie to do all the jobs

When I was a lib, I was sort of just like... a communist who needed permission to be a communist, this lead me to believe this was the case for the vast majority of libs, finding out I was wrong sucke in c/[email protected]

Any political strategy other than Sorkin-like reasonable debate and compromise is scary and probably Russian

Yeah honestly I don't understand how any adult can be paying attention to how the world works and not be a communist, but I guess people like to believe in comforting fairy tales like liberalism. Lately I've been getting into arguments with liberals when I criticize Harris, and they act like I've insulted them personally.

Newbie with questions about Debian (hexbear.net)

I got an old Windows 7 laptop that was going to be thrown out and decided to put Linux on it (see previous thread here). Most people suggested I go with the latest stable version of Debian, so that's what I installed. I've mostly used Windows, but I do have some experience with Ubuntu.

The installation went smoothly, but I've had a few problems getting it set up to my liking:

  1. I can't figure out how to setup flatpak. Everything seems to be working fine until I enter the last line in the terminal:

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

I hit enter and nothing happens. No error message or anything. I restarted the computer but flatpak doesn't work, either through the software center or the flatpak website. I found a few forum posts with the same problem, but no solutions.

  1. I somehow set it up so that my username is not the super user, so I have to type a password in the terminal every time I want to use sudo. Is there a way to fix this without a clean install?

  2. I somehow set up the hard drive partitions so that the OS is on an encrypted partition, so I have to put in a password for the BIOS to boot up. Is there a way to fix this without a clean install?

  3. I'm used to a desktop interface with a toolbar/start menu that I can pin frequently-used programs to, but with Debian it seems like I need to click "Activities" to do anything. Is there a way to set up the interface so it's more like Windows in that regard?

  4. If I need to do a clean install, I'm thinking of switching to Ubuntu, since I'm more familiar with the interface. Is there any reason why I should stick with Debian? I've heard some people trashing Ubuntu but I'm not sure why. Is Debian better for older hardware?

Edit: Thanks for all the knowledgeable replies. I did a fresh install of Debian 12 (64 bit) with KDE and it seems to have resolved all my problems. Although it's a little slow and buggy, I've had to reboot it twice. I'll try a lightweight DE if that continues.

Maybe I'm being paranoid, but I've seen lots of suggested videos lately on how to build DIY rockets
