It’s an Ubuntu downstream maintained by Linux box maker System76 which is targeted for both general usability and design/media applications. They will soon be debuting their own home-spun desktop environment, Cosmic DE, which is highly anticipated by the Linux community.

How does the community here feel about this distribution and the company that has brought it to us? How do you feel about the projects that they’re working on, and their goals for the distribution moving forward?

The prospect of irregular and unpredictable physics gives me anxiety

Imaginary mythological creatures can look however you like.

not a dumb idea. just say something simple like: "Hey, i'm going down to [comic book store name]. wanna come with?" or "Wanna go to [comic book store name]?" be chill when asking, and smile. if she says "yes," just say, "cool," and make arrangements for when to go.

the best way to avoid getting all nervous, etc. is to keep it very simple.

good luck!

edit: btw, if she says "no," stay chill and say, "ok, well, maybe another time," then walk away. smile again because it's cute. remember: she likes comic books, and you can always ask again, so no need to get too bummed out.

Edit 2: after looking at a lot of these other comments, I think I should mention, re: confidence— RELAX. Take a deep breath and don’t put too much pressure on yourself or the situation. The more natural it goes, the better.

Everyone here is giving advice that seems to try too hard, and I gotta say: don’t. If you’re more relaxed and pay more attention to what she’s interested in, you’ll actually be on your way to developing a relationship.

You’re the only one who mentioned Edward Snowden

Using paranoia to justify a logical fallacy - and espionage - isn’t a very good argument.

False equivalence is false— but, sure, anything to make espionage seem OK
