I am not sure proton was a thing yet and if it was I was certainly not aware haha nowadays I'm all tapped into that. also, even beyond steam, lutris and bottles have made it kind of a walk in the park. my goodness. I wickedly appreciate that offer and If I'm ever so stumped that i need a lifeline I may take you up on it. Lately my whole goal is to git gud and make it work myself. It's a journey and I'm getting way more confident in my ability to admin my own systems (and potentially anyone I can get to convert lol)

Anyone else feel like the MAGA response to the stock market plummet is a new level of cultism?

Its always been this dumb. If biden or god forbid Obama did even a fraction of the bullshit that the gigantic apish fuckwad has pulled there would have been assault rifle fire in the streets at all hours. They're so dumb. The constant spin and incessant propaganda spewing from the rightwing mediasphere is so thoroughly slurped up and any contrary point is dismissed as fake news. Its fucked because they fully believe it. They are all in. If a fox news host told them that sucking tapeworms out of each others asses would cure their little peepee syndrome they'd do it with a smile.

I model all of my UI choices off of old(er) school windows. I have a bar, the menu is left. I was a pirate before anything and I learned on windows. There was a point where it made sense that the world used it, I think that time has passed. I really am such a pleb that hardware issues only effect me if it doesn't work. In this I guess I am saying that the freedom to abuse and break my hardware is important. I don't want to sell my soul or be told "no". install the program, I know it was written for windows. I don't want a microsoft account.

Edit: my drunk ass had said older(er)

RFK Jr claims autistic children will never go on dates or pay taxes— How Many Here Can Refute This Conman's Lies?

My son is severely autistic, and at almost 9 years old is functionally nonverbal. He may never go on a date, or pay taxes. That said, trashing the solid science of vaccines and wasting time dicking about and cutting grants for research does absolutely nothing to help us help him or help society better understand his condition. Such a bunch of cunts.

Bernie Agrees: Democratic Party Is a ‘Threat to Democracy’

Reply in thread

It seems like you missed the part where he ran for president and couldn't get there. Pragmatically it was either sleepy Joe or T-bag, so him endorsing Biden was less about him agreeing with DNC policy and more to prevent the return of trump. I can't understand how you don't understand that. Voting is damage control, and the U.S. population not voting for the lesser of two evils in this last cycle has now allowed a swollen, poorly painted, anthropomorphic, pus-filled wart to extort the entire nation and level its financial and military strength against the entire rest of the world. All that said, the biden/Harris admin was complicit in the worst humanitarian disaster that I've been alive for and none of that is okay.

Former President Joe Biden diagnosed with 'aggressive' prostate cancer

Man, the criticisms are valid, and I'll even add to them because his pride in not stepping down sooner doomed what shreds of american democracy were left. That said, the best and largest climate bill ever passed by the US govt happened under him. Unions were bolstered and grew under him (not the train workers tho lol) and if nothing else, his victory let me not think about the fat orange cow for ten minutes. In so many ways, I pity and even kinda miss that sad sleepy bastard-- however much he floundered in almost every way. As a bonus his dogs hated government agents as much as I do, and got to bite them with impunity.

preach it, the capture of people into software ecosystems is getting so out of hand. I was thinking about microsoft vs apple, and while they do the same shit at least it seems to work well lol
