Aren't Madoka and Homura our moms? Shouldn't they be giving us the talk?

Madoka: Now Sabrina, there's something very important your mother and I have to discuss with you.

Homura: You're a grown woman now and as such it's important to know how your body works.

Sabrina: I know how sex works you two.

Madoka: How? You're, like, a week old!

Sabrina: Internet. In my head.

Allow me to quote my Linux-savvy friend:
Ugh, ubuntu
wait, only 8MB removed?
He didn't actually remove Cinnamon then
just a metapackage

I'm not sure what you meant by "desktop manager", but the "cinnamon" package is presumably just a metapackage (to make sure everything, including network-manager, is installed in the first place) that removing it is harmless.

(Of course, I wouldn't uninstall network-manager itself without making damn sure I had a safety net in case what I was trying to switch to didn't work out, but that's just me.)

EDIT: Turns out I'm wrong - I'd assumed it would be set up in a more sane way like other desktop environments.

Why in all that is holy would removing network manager remove cinnamon?! Someone on the Mint dev team has some splaining to do.

Will the vote tally program even count votes made by the OP?
No. I don't think it ever did.

Vote tally:
##### 3.21
[x]Of course.
[x] But, uh...let me finish first? If it didn't take, you can try again after - it might help to get two different talks from two different sources?

[div class="SpoilerTarget bbCodeSpoilerText"][X]Actually, Madoka...Can I talk to you for a minute? Take Madoka aside.
-[X]Madoka...you're probably one of the most important people here, honestly. And I...I want to ask for your help with something.
--[X]For magical girls, the most important thing...is really to be able to talk about their problems. To have someone they trust, who can keep their head on straight. That...goes for me too. There are always plenty of girls to fight,but what we really need is a good person who cares about us.
-[X]Madoka, you're a good person, and a good friend. Sayaka, Homura, Mami, me...We need someone like you. To keep our heads on straight, because sometimes it's easy to lose perspective...to think that there isn't anything we can do, or that there aren't people who care about us. And you care, a lot.
-[x]And...sometimes, I'm just not sure what to do. How to get through to people. There's one girl, I kind of messed up with her and now she doesn't really want to listen to me at all, and I'm worried for her. Can I ask for your advice with things like that, Madoka? I trust your judgement when it comes to things like that. More than I do my own, honestly.
[X]Just... there is so much more that we need other than a contract. Please, please don't make a deal with that... thing, okay?

The tally is a joke now.

I did just discover the tally picks up text in spoiler boxes, though.
