I've dual booted Linux on and off, mostly Ubuntu every few years over the last 20 years but it never stuck. Windows was acceptable enough for what I wanted, gaming, programming and audio production. Didn't even mind windows 11 that much however one of their last big updates broke Bluetooth audio for me and apparently that was the last straw so installed endeavour os and haven't turned back. Only issue is I haven't quite replaced everything I could do on windows yet, can't ignore it forever

    I think the first problem is art is so broad we shouldn't be making generalized sweeping statements. One piece of art might be made by someone and it is its own object, e.g. an unrelated painting of a landscape.Whatever that person has done doesn't change what it is or what it represents. Perhaps that art doesn't deserve to be shared or promoted in a way that benefits the artist though.

    On the other hand, some art like a film that has so much of the artist in it, can't stand on its own as much. It's harder to separate them. It's ok to enjoy the film but still not share or promote it in any way that benefits the artist. We should be ok with having mixed feelings about it.

    As with complex topics, it's really a grey area, there's no 1 rule.

    Can you explain what you mean by the poorly done line? I was a teenager when it came out so maybe I missed it but it felt like a way of expressing something tragic that happened, just like a singer writing a song about something bad that happened.

    Agree. I voted labour to get the conservatives out that we've been suffering under for so long and we just ended up with another awful government, as you said, Tories lite. If we don't end up with something better for the next election I have no idea who I'd vote for.
