Well yeah, but the US authoritarians tend to be right wing instead of left wing in their justifications of absurd state violence. They’ve been extremely prominent since at least the whole “freedom fries” era.

I’ve been a Linux user for nearly 20 years and my main gaming rig is Mint because it’s convenient and gets out of my way when it’s time to game.

The biggest issue being that despite having operational fabs here, TSMC still needs to ship their wafers to Taiwan in order to process them into chips.

Sorry, did we invent reasons for the rest of our South American coups? We did like 20 of em in the last century. Just pretended the CIA wasn’t involved.

Damn, never playing Elden Ring? Your loss ig

This.

I’ve been much happier abandoning games and shows even if I’m 95% done just because they stopped being fun. Completion is overrated

In addition to what the other reply said, the OLED model has lower power usage for the SoC because it’s a newer revision of the same chip, made with a newer process.

This sort of thing is deeply distro dependent. Pop_OS and Linux Mint handle Nvidia drivers pretty seamlessly, for instance

Not sure what the situation is on the NVIDIA side

Nvidia’s proprietary Linux drivers are effectively equal to their Windows drivers

Ironically an open source project with under 100 stars now seems more trustworthy by default because you can be sure they aren’t lying

That was how I started out. 2e Wizard with 7 HP total, Con as my second highest stat. He still managed to get killed at the end of his first module. Fortunately my 2nd Wizard still survives. None have bested Gilderath of the Golden Orb

The Movie Adaptation: Javascript

Agreed. There are some tone deaf people from those instances who think their perspectives are the only true ones, but that’s true of any sufficiently large and unified group.

They don’t share dependencies with the base system, but they do share dependencies with each other, so long as those dependencies are at the same version, which most of them are because flatpaks generally stay quite up to date.

One flatpak uses a lot of extra disk space, but for each additional flatpak you add to a system the disk space difference is much smaller because they share dependencies. When it’s system-wide for all user-installed packages, the difference is quite small.

A number of the best games of all time are quite cheap:

Tetris (pretty much any version)

Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 (use OpenRCT2 to run it well on a modern PC)

Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic 2 (use The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod to add back in the stuff the devs had to cut for time, otherwise the ending is disappointing)

Balatro ($9.99 on mobile or $19.99 when bundled with Slay The Spire on Steam)

Slay The Spire

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead (free and open source)

DOOM (the original, not the 2016 game, very cheap and there are literally millions of mods and community made maps)

Baba Yetu is such a banger

Baba Yetu, the intro music from Civilization 4

That’s what the NYT and others are afraid of. Copycats making this a trend and then the whole situation spiraling into French Revolutiom 2.0, or heavens forbid, October Revolution 2.0

Good for them. Macron pulled a really shitty backstab of a move when he decided to appoint a conservative PM after the leftists won
