And Democrats are “merely” authoritarians who 1) have colluded with fascists for decades to secure a duopolistic stranglehold on power, 2) have endorsed many of the same positions, historically, 3) place power above all else, including risking lives by boosting the cred of a literally insane psychopath fascist so they could win in 2016, 4) share many of those fascists views on privacy, personal security, freedom of expression.

Democrats only look good when compared to fascists. Is that really the best we can do?

The real issue here is that this has been a strategy of the DNC for years. As much as they’d like to deny it, they are responsible for the rise of Trump and extremism. But we’ll be asked to pretend that didn’t happen, again.

When you endorse racist fascists to win, you’re no better than those wh osupport them.

Vouching for PopOS, which has been my primary OS for years. The only thing I run a Win VM for is the old Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas & Campaign Cartographer. I suppose I could tinker with Wine, but it tends to be finicky with the latter.

Constantly having issues

You’re going to see a lot of issues on Linux boards because people go to then for help. I’ve been running Linux since 2020 and though there have been hiccups, its been remarkably reliable. Having said that, when there ARE issues, it can take some digging to find answers.

Is it not stable

Moreso than Win 11, in my experience. I use Win 11 at work and I’ve needed a system wipe twice. Once because networking just… stopped… and once because appx apps decided not to load.

Ongoing issues

Plugging PopOS as a good “set and forget” distro that is easy to grasp. The workflow is very MacOS and the tweaks they’ve made make for a friendlier interface v Ubuntu, IMO.

Is this the same system they use to slow down basically everything at AMS? Like seriously, that’s the worst, dirtiest major international airport I’ve ever had the misfortune of having to use.

Incels using a word offensively does not make the word inherently offensive, and by letting them reframe the word in their favor you’re giving them power they do not deserve.

When using male/female to denote biological sex, the words should not be offensive. “Were you born malr or female” in a medical settting can be vital to treatments, for example.

Generally, though, people ought to be using gender.

Part of it is either Reddit manipulating search positioning or Google (most people’s default search) prioritizing Reddit results. Searching for answers to questions often results in a half page of Reddit links. They may not be relevant, but that doesn’t become apparent until you’re there.

Yes, I recall when they had a policy of never allowing account deletion.

I mean, they let themselves get bought by Yahoo and they banned erotic art. Its like they want to fail.

Story killed gaming? Nah… story-driven games are what took games out of the basement and into the mainstream. One can only make so many “I have a gun / sword and I kill the things” games before it gets repetitive.

Concur. Larian is a breath of fresh air in a field saturated with pay-to-win, monetized, microtransaction nonsense. I’m not convinced they haven’t traveled across dimensions to restore fun and sanity to a hobby that has been all but ruined by greed and laziness.

A slight majority of American support it. I, for one, do not. The margin of error is terrible and the govt is all too willing to cover up its mistakes.

I’ve made the “promotion later” mistake once. I was as new at what I do as he was; taught me not to trust corps to do the right thing if it isn’t in writing and even then, not.
