no, no I’m not. I’m just pointing out correlations

So, what’s you point?

I have given you a list of poor democracies that are ‘republics’ and a list of strong democracies that many/most of which are a constitutional monarchy of some flavour or another.

“…that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; …so help me God.”

ok, lets look at it the other way then?

• Peoples Republic of China
• Democratic Republic of the Congo
• Republic of the Congo
• Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste
• Islamic Republic of Afghanistan
• Russian Federation…

Then there is the USA

and the republic’s of the world are much better?

What’s wrong with New Zealand or Australia ot Canada or?

and as internet lore of old says: that 15/F/US was either a 30 y/o living in their mum’s basement or an FBI agent

as the first two comments, get a test for sleep apnea. SWMBO used to snore badly until she got her c-pap

ps Sleep apnea is a recognized risk factor for stroke

Mandrake 6, not quite twice as long since you were born?

Still not as thin as my 12 year old Sony Xperia

Sorry, it is 0.7mm thinner

I have tried, but need a working display and user interaction (that i didn’t have at the time - thus needing a way to log into plasma remotely)

Interesting read. I guess I started my subscription in about June/July of 2000 soon after being given a Mandrake disk.

I see a review of Linux, Complete Reference Ver 3, which I still have on my bookshelf:

I must be well off, or exceedingly poor with 4 accounts across 3 instances

You have had some really good replies so far.

In the mountains realty could mean anything

• I’ve done winter camping in snow - in the mountains
• I’ve done summer camping (in snow, shit can go sideways) - in the mountains
• I’ve done subtropical camping - in the mountains
• I’ve done temperate camping - in the mountains
• I’ve done 90 mph wind camping - in the mountains
• I’ve also done some absolutely drop dead breathtaking camping in the mountains

As others have said, beperpaired for it to be colder than you expect.

Are you walking / hiking in, or car?

Enjoy it

ih ah bit coal oot?

at least that waht it sounded like up north yorks when I first moved there from New Zealand

just take care, lemmy is still small so it is easy to flood a front page

some good comments here, I’d just add two things:

• be genuine in your posts
• don’t post to lots of communities at the same time - I will ban posters if I see 3 or more posts landing on my instance

But other than than I hope to see you OC sometime

forgot about Yellow Dog. I still have a BSD VM (Dragonfly) that I occasionally fire up

I started with Mandrake 6 when the there were lots of 9’s or 0’s in the year

Then bounced from Slackware/opensuse/Red Hat/Debian/Gentoo/BSD

Now running Kde Neon and MacOS (Debian and BSD as server OSs)
