  • Does this mean I won’t be able to use the letter ‘x’ anymore because a multi-billion dollar company has trademarked it:

    • Two people fighting will now be boing.
    • When I want to bake some bread I will mi the ingredients together.
    • When I want to leave a building I will eit it.
    • I will now look up to the stars at night to see the magnificent epance of the Milkyway galay.




  • Close, but still good enough for second prize. Good effort.

    You win a life-sized cardboard cutout of Donald Trump with touch activated audio loops of all his most memorable Presidential quotes, such as: “And yet I’ve gone decades, decades without a war. The first president to do it for that long a period.”, and “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose any voters, OK? It’s, like, incredible.” and “Despite the constant negative press covfefe”. Look for it in the mail.


  • Someone should just start putting out fake Trump articles with super-weird headlines and no-one would notice - anything is plausible with this guy.

    1. ‘Trump stole Israeli artifacts from White House’
    2. ‘Trump admits that he expects servicemen to be rapists’
    3. ‘Trump kicked a child in the face while campaigning in Iowa.’
    4. ‘Donald Trump just literally made the Republican race about his penis’
    5. ‘Donald Trump likes rough sex with prostitutes who only have one leg.’
    6. ‘Trump visited church before election day and walked out with a wooden pew under his arm and a gold alter crucifix concealed in his jacket.’
    7. ‘Trump was spotted Thursday cartwheeling down Santa Monica beach in a mankini.’
    8. ‘Trump just called Hillary Clinton Beelzubub, the eater of souls.’
    9. ‘Donald Trump stole classified documents, stored them in his bathroom in Mar-a-Lago, then sent copies via bike courier to the Russian and Saudi embassies for a cash exchange of $2 million per page.’
    10. ‘Donald Trump seen naked at 3am in Central Park humping a chihuahua.’

    Challenge: 50% of these headlines are real, can you spot which ones?






  • Yeah, okay, I am a little bit techy, but so far I haven’t had to employ any of my limited techy abilities in Linux Mint. I didn’t even notice I was using it more, it just happened over a few months that I was finding there was no need to go back to Windows. To load programs on Linux Mint I just google “How to load program X on Linux”, and there will be a page saying, type “sudo apt install <program_name>” in Terminal and it always works and I’m done. (I’m a beginner programmer who was told to try Linux for the Unix stuff) .

    If you’re a gamer, I would look up any discussion of gaming in Linux - that would be my only proviso.


  • I wouldn’t say I’m that techy and I recently jumped over to Linux Mint from Windows because it has the C-compiler gcc pre-installed and it’s UNIX seems to be a better experience for programming. It was easy to install, I find I’m going back to Windows less and less. I used to use Photoshop a lot, now I’m just using Krita. I’m lovin it so far. Only games are a problem maybe, although the game I play has a linux version, I just can’t be bothered loading yet.

    Linux Mint is supposed to be the easy for-the-layman Linux distro and that’s been my experience so far - everything has worked, no issues.
