I just switched back to Linux a week ago (Ubuntu Studio 24.04) from windows. I used to use Linux 15 years ago and I tried a lot of distros at that time. Eventually I landed on Crunchbang which I loved dearly.
Since it's been awhile I wanted something fairly vanilla so Ubuntu Studio felt like a good start. I was planning on switching to something else (I hear we have Crunchbang++ now) after getting used to Linux again but I have kind of settled in to Ubuntu now. It feels a little sloppy but comfortable somehow.
If I understand you correctly you seem to be implying this is more favorable to Vance? However, if I read this and didn't know anything about either of them I would tend to look more favorably towards Waltz more as his "Highschool Coach" experience makes him seem more relatable whereas Vance is just some politician. I guess I'm not so convinced this is an obvious example of propaganda.
