this except for the macbook. experienced computer people know better.

think a dirt cheap used latitude or a thinkpad. or a black box desktop.

SUDO

and we do it at work because it makes things easier in the long run!

great idea to do some of this stuff at home too.

what demand??

we do, actually.

imagine not knowing the difference between a murderous empire wreaking havoc in the world for centuries and china.

they are already on 4.0, way past 3. they are uncomfortable, in uncharted territory.

you no like jar jar binks? what did general jar jar binks do to you? 🤪

roiland was sadly a cornerstone of the show.

both. they can also work together for windows games to run predictably through proton without the need for distro-specific tweaks.

that’s because proton is not an emulator but a translator, so it’s interacting directly with the aforementioned system libraries and kernel instead of emulating those.

it’s part of how it can be so fast.

different distros have different environments. as in different libraries, versions and ways of accomplishing the same tasks. this is good for the linux ecosystem but bad for developers who want a predictable and stable set of tools they can build upon.

this system addresses just that by providing this stable set of libraries and tools developers can target instead.

eli5 it’s basically so your choice of distro doesn’t affect game compatibility, and developers don’t have to add manual support for every distro a user might want to run.

the majority of people do now

i try to always go straight to the point.

my job can be done from hoooooomeeeee!! stop making me commute 😩

it’s like these people enjoy our pain.

i’m usually on frontends, alternatives and self-hosted services. i’m barely seeing any of those outages.

feeling cool rn ngl 😎

if your phone supports it. i’d love that option on mine for sure!

we don’t want to kill anyone. though police forces might be deployed to try and stop us.

we don’t want regular people dead, far from it. we want you to join us against the ones who oppress us. shit, we are ok with you doing whatever you think it’s effective as long as you don’t side with fascists like libs sometimes do.

also what’s usually a very outdated os and kernel. it’s cool to play with but they make it hard to be practical.

i literally answered your question very directly and specifically. i cited a rich historical example you could look into and see for yourself.

you too have to want to have a conversation. i agree this chain will not be productive anymore, have a nice day.

my brother in christ, we are not discouraging you from voting. we are trying to show you it doesn’t work.

we have experience with people like mamdani outside the us that you just refuse to accept.

please just look up the things you don’t know instead of pretending we are not saying it. i literally cannot be clearer than i am being.
