There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time.

Don't you people have something better to do than unironically doing the ackchyually meme? Follow the fucking post and its fucking intent, you fucking internet weirdos. You're not as smart as you think you are.

Raspberry Pi - Introducing: Raspberry Pi 5
Reply in thread
Once they hired that former cop who bragged about using these RPI's for "legal" surveillance police operations, I was done with them. This goes completely against the DIY spirit. There are so many better options out there without cops and without snarky Twitter social media managers.

IGN | Rotten Tomatoes Under Fire After PR Firm's Scheme to Pay Critics for Positive Reviews Uncovered

I really loved IMDb back in the day. While the user ratings weren't perfect, there used to be a formula you could use to figure out the worthiness of a movie to watch. Now (10 years or so), IMDb user ratings are inundated with conservatives and older generations who tend to rate based on their fragile feelings rather than on how watchable a movie is.

Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome
Reply in thread
If everyone who said they were going to do this actually did this, Chrome wouldn't do this, if that makes sense.

She's going to start a GoFundMe and get like $500k and walk away wealthy. I hate how fucked up our society is.

Half of Republicans think Michelle Obama is trans. It's a race thing.

San Francisco says tiny sleeping 'pods,' which cost $700 a month and became a big hit with tech workers, are not up to code

There have to be people living in capsule hotels in Japan. There are people in Japan living in computer cafes, where the lights are on 24/7. Japan isn't all sunshine and roses. Tons of people barely hanging on and these cheap ass places let them have at least some sort of dignity. If you work any job in Japan, odds are you'll have a roof over your head. Same can't be said in the US, where many homeless people have jobs and can't afford to be protected from the elements.

If we could change politics by voting, we wouldn't be allowed to vote.
We're not stretched thin to finance these changes. Taxes aren't holding us back. This is what those with true power in society and their cronies say to not do anything. This is the whole point.
No one is only blaming "billionaires." This is you patronizing them, portraying yourself as a genius and the person you're responding to as too naive and stupid to understand how life really works.
And no, we don't have agency. We have a deluded sense of agency where we think we can vote and change the system from within.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Says States Should 'Consider Seceding From the Union'
She's right. Blue states should consider it. I don't think blue staters in these comments realize how close abortion is to being illegal nationwide.
"Roe v. Wade will never be overturned, that'll turn the country into a warzone!!"
"States will never actually ban abortion, that'll turn states into warzones!!"
Yet here we are.

high speed rail go brrr
Reply in thread
I think it has more to do with the lack of democracy, especially in the US. I guarantee you could get 100 regular Joes in a room to come up with a high speed rail project. You could never get that to happen with politicians at the mercy of the ruling class.

Majority of Americans continue to favor moving away from Electoral College
The "founding fathers" would be against the electoral college today too. The electoral college was an idea to try to get the people to directly vote for the president.

“I don't have your money working class”
Reply in thread
It sounds like you're either a liar or completely mistaken. Since you seem to post a lot about politics, I'm leaning towards the former. You also spread a lot of bullshit like how affirmative action is the real racism, how your sexism is based in "objective facts", how the opium wars started racism against Chinese people, etc.
You're just another clown trying to trash leftists by claiming to be one.

Unity reportedly told dev Planned Parenthood and children's hospital are "not valid charities"
Reply in thread
This isn't generic conservatism. Many Americans, who are conservative, support abortion rights. Unity seems to be in bed with far right political Christianity.
