KDE for Windows 10 Exiles: A KDE campaign about not throwing away your computer just because it doesn't support Windows 11

Reply in thread

I plan on offering Linux as well but I'm thinking of older people who I simply want to make sure have a computer that continues to get updates. While I personally run everything in my personal life FOSS I can recognize that's not necessarily the right move to switch up someone's entire computer and then peace out. I think of it as harm reduction, in the same way I volunteer for needle exchanges. I offer information and support to get off heroin but for those who aren't ready I offer clean needles. Sorry I know this was a long ass reply and your question was probably rhetorical, but that's why

A great book for those of us with mental illness

I think I agree to some extent, but I do think that AA can help in a way that's helpful. There is value in any form of sobriety and if AA does replace the alcohol it does allow the brain time to rewrite neuro pathways. Obviously I agree that AA is lacking in it's breadth of working on the underlying issues such as trauma and mental health. I however find that my standpoint is if something is working for someone and is helping their life get better I'm not going to tell them they're doing sobriety wrong.
