    I feel like in a modern context, “feminism” is inapplicable. While there has never been a female US President, what does Barack Obama buy Blacks in America? Tokenist identity achievements have been disproven by an ineffective and lazy neoliberal elite in terms of advancing “where they came from.” There are more prominent, professional, relevant women in the rightwing recasting of “having it all” over on the trad-wife side, which has been ironic since Phyllis Schlafly, but has never had a bad day, and isn’t having one now…

    I think the big problem is no Ubuntu circa 2010 distro anymore that “just works” ala netbooks of the era. Only Fedora has Ubuntu in 2010-level hardware support for actual modern hardware, but no Broadcom wifi sans internet and you will need to google for and execute like 40 lines of random cli commands that seem to add the same 3 codecs 14 ways apiece to make HEVC work (more for VLC HEVC ironically). Ubuntu does Broadcom wifi out of the box, but has gotten bad and has poor hardware support overall for new hardware. Mint has the best printer support, but as of 22.1 no longer does Broadcom wifi out of the box… SteamOS is actually really great – and has MARKEDLY better hardware support for dongles and such than Bazzite, no comparison, and Bazzite suffers from Fedora’s shit HEVC situation PLUS immutable distro BS where it DOES use system .so’s but is in denial – but isn’t a real distro…
