Trying to compare Valve to Sony on the basis of pro/anti-customer basis is a great way to embarrass yourself. Yea, Valve doesn't have disks, so they're the same right?
I can't wait to see the launch of the next generation of consoles. Valve has been absolutely battered by being the first out the gate in this hardware market, and I'd be surprised if the next gen consoles are not anemic and expensive.
Water consumption has been way overblown. Sure if you're in the Colorado River basin, water is absolutely an issue. But if your concerned with wasted water usage, all data centers combined would be a rounding error compared to what we throw away on turf grass.
Kyle Hill and Hank Green have both made videos about this I'm not crazy.
I will never vote for Newsom. I don't care if the election is close. I don't care if he's the lesser evil. Don't talk to me about vulnerable people, because if that was a priority, then Newsom will not be the nominee.
If liberals can ignore our voices, they can manage without our votes.
I've never liked, disliked, rated, commented, or shared a Youtube video. Because I'm using Freetube, I technically don't even subscribe anymore. Why are y'all so eager to maintain the algorithm? Does "disliking" a video feel like agency?
If you really wanna punish Youtube creators, watch their video for less than 30 seconds. That won't count as a view, but I bet the algorithm clocks it as a dislike.
Windows11 sucks so bad. I was so excited to learn that Explorer and Notepad were getting tabs & Paint was getting layers. Only to find out that these core features weren't being updated for users, but in the process of adding slop to the OS. Explorer was the worst, my address bar became an ad. And everything was buggy and broken.
And I know this isn't just the Linux fanboy line because Microslop themselves had to apologize and walk-back some of the Copilot obnoxiousness.
One positive of AI is that the ownership class is getting a lesson in just how complex, flexible, reliable, and capable "unskilled" workers are. You can watch them realize in real time that a model capable of running a dinner-rush drive-thru would be a trillion dollar quantum leap.
The no1 reason to self-build is to save money. Obviously, this thing isn't going to appeal to that crowd. For a pre-built, this price isn't crazy. And the performance is fine for 1080p/1440p gaming.
So if you're the kind of person who knows the GPU nomenclature by heart, you probably won't buy this, but I still expect the thing to sell-out by virtue of being Valve.
I'm rooting for Valve's success because that means wider Linux adoption.
Tucker Carlson's job is to get his name in the press. He used to be a somebody, now he says things on podcasts you've never heard of to get attention. The real question is: what is MTG doing this week?
Ever notice how the countries who are the most pro-Israel are the same countries that restricted Jewish immigration during the holocaust? We never talk about how Jewish immigration to Palestine means they're not immigrants to England or the US.
Maximum freedom to post any topic without restrictions
This does not exist. There are many "topics" that automatically exclude others. A sub that tolerates fascism automatically excludes people of moral conviction or rational thought for example.
If you just want somewhere you can act out without criticism, I would recommend a chatbot.
One of the biggest Windows habits I've had to break is using file explorer to open documents and files. This was because memorizing file paths is way faster than using search. Search in Windows has never been good, because it's always been weighted toward what Microslop wants you to find. And the index goes to shit if a user does something unexpected like saving, moving, or deleting files.
Linux search just works. If I know the file name, there is no reason to open a file explorer at all. Just mash the power key and start typing.
Using 'woke' as a pejorative has a long history in conservative discourse. Before that, it was called 'politically correct' and before that it was called 'bleeding heart'.
It all means the same thing: that liberals pretend to care about marginalized people as a cynical ploy to get/keep power.
The reason this insult has such lasting power is because it's apt.
I always save the 3.5 jack from headphones when they die. I carry them with me because they can instantly silence any TV you can reach. Doctors offices and airports are much better now.
