Agreed but unfortunately it’s either don’t get paid or work from home. I don’t think people socially accepted it as much as had no other choice.

those look like some amazing vegetables, I don’t know much about growing vegetables but I imagine getting them grown like this must take some effort or skill/knowledge

THIS GUY USES ELECTRICITY! GET HIM!

yeah, I almost always preface my rants with “is it just me or …”

I do want to know what other people think and if the things driving me insane are also driving them insane

Purolator is a bastard company I always freak out when I realize my online order defaulted to Purolator from the shipper’s end. I’d literally send more money so it can be anything else.

Not shilling for FedEx but FedEx has come to my house rang my doorbell and stood there for 1 min and I’ve never seen any other company do this.

I liked the look of KDE plasma and used it when I first started with Linux but it is a buggy mess and extremely bloated. It feels like it’s stuck trying to be Windows 7 aero.

As for NV I use Nvidia as well and I haven’t had any issues on CachyOS with Nvidia’s actual “open” drivers (not neuveau)

I tried paying back a friend for lunch and he didn’t let me now I’ve lived for years knowing owe him $18

no dude, psychedelics ummm…LOWER your vibration. You see, that feeling of heightened awareness/euphoria is a negative force pushing you to use more psychedelics. MY personal favourite way to raise your vibration is with Joe Rogan’s waveforce supplements! I take em every day!

I didn’t say your post was that

ditto but for me it’s the constant men vs women sex rage bait

Arch in like 2019 maybe.

I still like Arch, I tried all sorts of distros in VMs, most feel clunky to me.

Tiling manager, GUI file explorer, minimal status bar and I’m set.

For my laptop this is swaywm, swaybar, nautilus.

I also use drun-like programs

Reddit Linux are just a bunch of gaming chuds. and I say that as a gamer.

They’ll take time to understand the landscape and there’s nothing wrong with that, yes reddit is dogshit but you won’t convince anyone by just telling them. They just have to look around for themselves.

All your concerns are valid and Linux handles all these well except:

If you play competitive games with kernel anti cheat it will simply not work on Linux courtesy of the game developers.

Linux is fully capable of running the game and the anti cheat but the game developers restrict it. Notable games are cod, fortnite, apex legends.

A notable competitive game that works on Linux is cs2 although you won’t be able to run 3rd party anti cheat like FACEIT as far as I know.

You can use the proton site to tell you how many of your games on your steam library are playable on Linux.

I’m on my 8th month or so using Linux to game and I’ve had no issues, most popular games will work. Most niche games use very simple tech like SDL and will just work.

Wine essentially creates a fake windows environment and handles a lot of internal API calls by kind of redirecting them to existing Linux services, so a lot of windows stuff will just work.

As for security. You realize most of the Internet runs on Linux ? Practically the majority of the internet is hosted on Linux machines.

As for a distrto there is no optimal choice you can make.

You can pick Ubuntu, Debian or Mint and find yourself disappointed in how restricting the power user experience is.

You can pick arch or cachy for the latest wine improvements but find yourself lost in how to handle the OS in case something goes wrong.

I personally think cachy (rolling release) is the best for gaming but you could encounter issues (skill issues really) that might frustrate you. These issues would lead to growth and improvement in your understanding of Linux but if all you want to do is game and you don’t care about understanding computers then it might not be for you.

Care to give any examples ?

I’m not gonna lie I read this as I was heading to bed and it kind of ruined my mood not because of anyones fault but because it’s true. what the fuck do we work for ?

Just because it ran long doesn’t mean that it yielded important results. the real catch is that people can fraud the government and remote viewing is essentially a contract scam done on the government. not that I care or have a stake (I’m Canadian), just pointing out that long time researching != important or study worthy

Mask off for facists who worship their fascist dictator

Lain’s schizoid non-romantic fixation on Alice really does it for me

Take a look at how much calories crackers pack. It’s way more than I thought, I don’t eat crackers at all anymore.

It’s even more fun when the angry asshole people are mods on the platform!
