To add to this-

One of the biggest traps for new linux users since forever has been to jump straight into the deep end- tweaking any and every tunable- then when that inevitably all breaks, blaming Linux and moving back.

For anyone reading- You don’t need Arch as your first distro, you don’t want to on the bleeding edge unless you’re prepared to bleed. You don’t need things like Golden Eggroll Proton or any external launchers.

Just keep it simple to start- Something like Mint, SuSE or plain Fedora with Steam using the built-in Proton.

Bazzite gets… let say ‘advertised’ a lot and it’s got a lot of good ideas - but if you’re coming from Windows I think it’s just too much - it’s an immutable system* with containers for everything. That’s an ocean away from Windows unless you were comfortable with Sandboxie beforehand (if you were, dive right in)

*\the system is read only, you cannot change anything in the default image, ie. imagine if you were never allowed to add files to c:\windows

Edit: For the newbs, an ancient meme- https://www.shlomifish.org/humour/by-others/funroll-loops/Gentoo-is-Rice.html


I don’t think this will be good due to Elon and AI slop- but.

anything is better than WP:NOT

Exclusionists aren’t real people :P


They seemed to have caught on to just scrolling straight to the bottom now too, so now it’s somewhere around 2/3rds the way down is the actual recipe nestled away between the filler.



If you’re on PC, SpecialK can do that now (on SSE, probably also LE if you’re on nVidia or use dgvoodoo for DX9 to DX12)


Can’t break mods on the GoG version!


Because as someone outside looking in- USA has not had a ‘left’ party in over a hundred years.

Your Democrats are Centre-Right sometimes approaching right wing.

Your Republicans were Classical Right, now Far Right.


2 player NSFW ‘game’

I figured this was going in a very different direction.


Congratulations Katie and Konqi!




How?

Reddit, Lemmy and Discord the bad actors now, people here are the ones calling for ‘raids’ on websites, to dox people, to ruins anonymous internet users lives.

4chan is tame by comparison.


Just wrap your house in 3 layers of sarking instead of one.



Three compromised wifi devices.

Three APs in Lab conditions is the start.


Be the change you wanna see or stfu.

I am, by not supporting these games financially, I’m hoping they crash and aren’t made anymore.

Live Service single player games are an abomination.



Moving away from MS Exchange is a massive undertaking, I don’t think a lot will realise just how hard that is.

The article doesn’t touch on whether they’ve also dumped AD and if they haven’t how they’re doing AD<>OX (Though at its core, AD is just an EEE’d LDAP)


It would, but it we’d have to drop voice acting to get there.

Fran Fine won’t ever allow us to have that and voice acting.


*Delivering nothing.

When he does deliver it’s more often a gem than a turd, but he almost never delivers.

Self Driving Cars? Nope.

BFR? Nope.

ITS? Nope.

Starship is an death trap - I’d trust a 737MAX over ever getting on that turd.

Tesla Roadster with thrusters (yes, he promised this) Nope.



On the first picture, you could headcanon that’s for a planned future extension to the highway.


Turns out you don’t need to call it ‘non-fungible’ or ‘web3.0’ - just lie and you can sell JPEGs for tens of thousands of dollars!




Pritchard will take on the role.

About time! What, did she get stuck in an airduct on the way there?


Also the intro threw me off right away, at least in 4 there was still a veneer of you starting as a lowly pleb, 5 was just “YOU’RE THE SUPERSTAR!!!” right from second one and it was just patronising.


I would have agreed a year ago.

But the only clearing houses for online transactions turned out to be a bunch right wing stooges that hate LGBT and Adult Games.



Machining is a lot of learning, but it’s real, tangible work that gives more satisfaction than anything I did in corporate IT.

Moreover, even though the welding side can be a bit ‘blokey’ (macho?) you’ll find places fall into either horribly sexist (you’ll know within a few meters of walking in…) or millennials/onward that don’t mind who you are.

Machining side even the old men don’t care who you are, as long as you do a good job and don’t skimp on calibration.

It’s sexism in its own right, but a few of the older men prefer me doing the calibrations since they assume women=dexterous.


Everyone knows that.

But, at the very least we should be congratulatory on this - it’s bad that clans were contained to DLC in the first place and Paradox needed a good kick, but since they’ve been pliable we should give them a pavlovian pat on the head.

If you leave no room for ‘rehabilitation’ there is no reason to try to do better.



Intel is already competing in that space.

Most of the time a machine is at idle, not at full load and Intel clocks AMD in idle power, which doesn’t matter at all on Desktop but is a more important metric for mobile than loaded power consumption.




*Including their phones

*Ironically not including their ‘signage displays’ (ie. displays that are for displaying… advertising)



Just a few more jpegs and they’ll have the money to finish it!

I do remember them spending a lot of money on Star-Trek style doors for the their HQ and now they’re moving, so I guess that was money well spent.
