  • Trump Admin Drops the Olive Branch from U.S. Seal on New Dime Coins, Keeps the Arrows

  • I didn't say that, and I don't believe that, so don't put words in my mouth.

    Ok, but

    he did a LOT of things right for America and the World, and on balance his good FAR outweighed the bad.

    The very next paragraph, and the rest of the post, is essentially "I said that, and I believe that".

    Pointing out that he also did things you like is justifying the atrocities he committed. If a man throws people into concentration camps that's the only thing we should ever talk about when his name comes up. There's no coming back from that. Your attitude is giving me "Mussolini made the trains run on time" vibes.

  • And in your opinion that excuses seizing innocent people's property and throwing them in concentration camps?

  • FDR threw 100,000 Americans into concentration camps. Idc what conservatives think of him, fuck that guy.

  • Why Dems Keep Saying Trump Has “No Plan” Instead of Calling to End the War With Iran

    Jump

  • Democrats calling to end the war would just be ignored.

    Also it would piss off their bosses, Israel and the military industrial complex

  • Yeah, you know they're shit and keep electing them anyway. Like Nancy Pelosi.

  • And how does one typically get good enough at a job to "make good decisions"?

    Not being so power hungry as to choose politics as a career thereby losing touch with the rest of society is a damn good start

    And how would you know if they would "make good decisions" in that job?

    Idk maybe they could spend a few months telling us their ideas, and then the people could go and pick the candidate they like the most, like some sort of election

  • As far as I'm concerned "makes good decisions" is a better qualification than "made a career out of running for office"

  • Electing a legislator is not electing a dictator. The system was designed to give people with good ideas a chance to lead, not just professional politicians. Your attitude is borderline elitist and leads to the "ok it's my turn now" phenominon that's made the Democrats so ineffective in the last couple of decades. The only time anyone's gotten excited for them in recent memory was Obama, who had been a politician for a whole 4 years before becoming president.

  • There's not necessarily anything wrong with electing people without political experience. If everyone didn't have an equal shot we might as well be a monarchy. The problem is we never elect anyone good.

  • We had a project that, by law, could only be touched by people within the US. We constantly caught Deloitte trying to sneak their (undoubtedly cheaper) off shore staff in there.

  • We messed up with the Windows 12 article. What we got wrong and how it happened

    Jump

  • Thanks for the tips but I'm a very experienced windows user, I did all of that immediately after install lol. To put it in perspective, my first step after installing bazzite was to join it to my personal AD domain that lives on my hyper-v cluster. If there's something I could have done to get this performance on win 11 it would have probably been significantly more complicated and time consuming than any of the basics.

  • Yeah I ran my steam library past protondb before I started and a surprising number of games had Linux native versions. Of the rest, everything I actually want to play was rated either gold or platinum.

  • I get all that, they're all very good points. I had windows tuned to the best of my abilities, I try to use windows whenever possible at home because I manage windows servers professionally and it's helpful to get as much hands on time with the platform as I can. But this was such a dramatic difference out of the box that I'm going to stick with it for now at least. I'm not willing to invest the time into tweaking windows to run this well (if I even can) and it's a dedicated gaming rig so many of the "Linux on the desktop" complaints won't apply to my use case.

    Mostly I'm shocked that getting significantly improved performance when running through a compatibility layer was even possible. I expected proton to be almost as good as native. In this instance it ended up being a huge improvement.

  • I wasn't sure about that article at the time, but it did inspire me to finally try out bazzite on a spare nvme and I found that a lot of my issues in games went away. Particularly fallout 4, the painfully slow loading screens between map changes are like 70% faster now. So I'm sticking with it for my gaming rig.

    I never would have though running games through a translation layer could actually improve performance. Id heard a lot of people say so but I assumed it was just Linux devotees being fanboys. They were absolutely right.
