    the guy lost his mother due to their hoarding, hygiene, and health issues. the guy recently also lost his father to health issues/cancer. You’d think it would be a wake up call for him to start getting his shit together but it won’t.

    I guarantee you he’s going to get health issues because of his teeth. His gums have rotted away and routinely bleed (he wipes the blood from his gums on his bedroom wall btw). His home is infested with rats, cockroaches and god knows what else that I’m honestly surprised he hasn’t been bitten by a rat yet while he’s sleeping. The guy is so repulsed by water that I’m surprised he doesn’t have rabies. He can’t even drink it because he finds it gross. He won’t eat any fruit and vegetables for the same reason, they’re gross.

    All he eats is junk food and fast food and he’s as thin as a rake. his gums are rotted. I’d be curious to know what his index and middle fingers look like at this point…

    Years ago when I still worked for companies as an employee my team had this PM that was so desperate to get things done and get them done early. I mean he was a nice guy but always pushing. The thing is though my team was pretty damn solid and we got stuff done early, all working, tests passed, all that cause we liked to play battlefield 3 and eve online together when we had the free time. Course we never told the PM this. Also the PM liked to motivate us with food if we worked late to get stuff finished. So we used this to our advantage and once or twice a week we allowed the PM to buy us dinner and beer/snacks because we told him we’d be working late to ensure deadlines were met. When in reality we’d just be in the office playing eve online together and wanted food and beer while we did so.

    I don’t feel bad for the project manager, he came from money, he constantly told everyone he came from money, so we took his money.

    Go with Fedora KDE. it’ll be the most polished DE and a good starting off point for transitioning from Windows. Mint is fine but there can be issues. Ubuntu is a headache especially when it comes to updates and upgrades (experienced it on my server this past weekend) and their sneaky “we’ll install a snap instead” approach to some things I just don’t like.

    Fedora is easy and a good middle ground to get them into Linux. Also since you already use Fedora it will be an easy transition for both of you since you can provide first hand support.

    There’s anther thread on here about linux for new people and suggestions regarding that. A lot of people in that thread just didn’t get it. They were talking about learning the terminal, learning how to CD, installing stuff via the terminal etc and I’m like “your average user isn’t going to do that”

    Hell most average Window users today don’t even download an exe and go through the install process. I know some that have never even opened file explorer. They have apps that get those files or pictures or whatever in the default directories for them.

    so telling a user like that to open a terminal emu and type in “sudo apt install firefox” and to remember to “upgrade and update” is beyond them. like WAY beyond them.

    So yes in that regard your’e right, Zorin would be the way to go. just have somewhere to download their apps/programs in an easy to understand and clean GUI.

    And on top of all this does he think we just send astronauts up to space to live in the ISS for extended periods of time all willy nilly? Or hell just sending people to the moon, that was just “ok, you’re going to to the moon tomorrow, pack your bags” no. It takes months if not years of training to get someone used to living in zero g for extended periods of time. Us silly meatbags need something called gravity to live. You can’t just shoot someone out into space and say “have at it”. So whose going to train these millions of people? There’s no artificial gravity spinny things on ships to do that. there’s hardly any on the moon.

    And then what if these people want to go back to Earth for a visit? it wouldn’t work. Look at Astronauts who have been on the ISS for an extended period of time when they come back. They can’t walk, they look like they’re going to pass out. So everytime these millions of people decide to return for a visit they also have to spend time getting help to get used to being on Earth again? no way, that’s not happening. You would literally have to set up some sort of hospitals specifically for this and then train and hire a massive amount of people who deal only with getting people used to dealing with gravity again. 2045? be real jeffy boy.

    I mean again the people who are floating around in space right now are specifically selected and are in peak physical condition. The ONLY way it would maybe work is if we managed to develop a form of artifical gravity and right now that’s science fiction. OR you set up a colony on Mars and right now that’s a one way trip. and I’ve seen/read/played a lot of media where one way mars colony trips never work out well in the long run.

    Plus there’s a massive Dragon on Mars…
