You’re… pretty good.

It bears repeating, so: fuck Microsoft and Windows.

Can confirm. For anybody else reading: Mint was my first Linux distro away from Windows, and it’s been great daily driver.

Some of the anti-homosexuality texts in the New Testament also have some missing context that isn’t really applicable to the homosexuality of today.

What was frowned upon in the age those texts were written was the ‘effeminizing’ effect of being submissive in sexual activity, which males in society of that time (in the Roman empire) were expected to be strong, hard, dominant penetrators (manly qualities), not weak-willed, soft, submissively penetrated (feminine qualities). Abandoning manly expectations in society for feminine sex acts was unforgivable. That expectation of social/sexual roles contributes to the homophobia and toxic masculinity today.

Another Greek word that has been difficult to translate is arsenokoitai, which has traditionally been translated as ‘homosexual’ (and used as a proof text for the Bible’s anti-homosexual stance), but later uses of the word seem to indicate it was ‘rape or sex by economic coercion, prostitution, or pimping’, which introduces an asymmetry of power of an abuser and the abused, which is far more problematic than homosexual activity.

Excellent stuff. Thanks for the easy-to-follow writeup.

I was also experiencing your same issue, just tried @muhyb@programming.dev’s recommendation, and my computer shut off completely as desired.

Edit: I also opened a terminal and “sudo poweroff” and “sudo shutdown now” both work, so for me, I didn’t need to switch to a TTY console.

I also have had this issue recently. The OS will be off, but the hardware itself (fan, lights, etc.) is still running

I’ll fucking believe it when I see it. I’m not holding my breath.

True, unless you’re the only one seeding a particular thing. It’s good to keep media alive and available, especially obscure stuff.

Quiet.
