A real sentence I really said today in a discussion.

[An Image of a Cigarette Lighter Socket in a Car, With the Text "Checkmate Liberals, I´ll put my dick whereever I want"]

I said this in a rant about Right to repair and Technology in a Audi Q3, saying that "If I want to put the Power Cords of one of the Matrix LED Lights of it on my Dick, I dont want to have to Authorise it via a Dealership Application first for Parts Locking"

But honestly it is very funny out of Context

Lets speculate about the steam controllers price

A few Werks ago, I sold my Xbox one and with that my only working controller for my PC. Since then, i have been playing hollowknight and Jedi fallen order on my old Xbox 360 controller with its unlikeable d-pad, even after multiple mods to it.

And with the steam controller coming, im eagerly awaiting the steam controller

My guess is about 100-150€, since the price of a General controller with back buttons and no Hall effect Joysticks or touchpads is already about 100€, so this + all the cool shit steam is doing will be more.

I hate how Apples + Googles Prinz services are fucking my Printer, yet CUPS does it right.

I have a brother laser Printer which I use via IPP from my network. It can hold a bunch of pages in RAM and Print them once the other (it can Print 3 in a row) are finished.

Now what does any propriatery printing service do?

They feed ONE PAGE AT A TIME, so my printer starts printing, then it starts cooling off, but then it has to HEAT UP AGAIN FOR FUCKS SAKE, and that every time.

Also if I just print via CUPS from my Linux machine, its like 5 times faster.

And I just don't understand how my 15€ thin client from over 20 years ago can do more and better than my 1200€ iPad.

Just a reminder why I keep using Linux.

I was just at a Tech store, and a family asked an employee what Gemini AI is.

The employee tried to Ask the AI what it can do, but he had to Fact check Google Gemini so often that the family lost interest XD

At the same time I was checking out a last gen Switch for my Router and the Fairphone 6, and I got to hear the employee literally argue with Gemini about what Pixel phones it is availible on. To be honest, it was really hard not to laugh

what is going on with all the system requirements in games?

I have a merely 3 year old PC I bought for 1500€ a 5600x and 3060ti, yet it for some reason can't run cronos, a single player linear game, on low settings without constant lags

The whole game consists of grayscale. There is simply nothing that would require the computing power

And its not really a realistic progress of computing requirements, while they state that my entry level ryzen 5 5600x can run it on optimal settings, for some reason they require an extremely up to date GPU, which just tells me that they just crammed in every kind of graphics tech so their Grayscale smog looks better

Newer 3d games (RE 7 biohazard, Chronos) start stuttering like hell randomly, and my Monitors backlight flickers all the time

Im currently running bazzite, but the flickering has also happened on OpenSUSE

Im running the games via Heroic and Steam, both installed via normal packages (no flatpak)

Running via Proton-GE latest (10-10 at this point)

Running on a 1080p 144hz monitor connected with displayport

I have a ryzen 5 5600x, rtx 3060ti

I will try using a Gsync Monitor, but if anyone has any idea I'm open for it

Edit: Thanks to everyone, changing the Monitor did the Trick. I had a MSI MAG271CR, which already has had problems randomly disconnecting from Linux, and not showing a picture again until I did some shinanigans changing the resolutions

I changed my Main Monitor to a (Gsync compatible) Acer XB270H A, and it has none of these problems

/e/ OS does a little trolling and sends all your Text to Voice data to OpenAI for processing and Speech generation.

First of all, to anyone downvoting my Comments about /e/ being a piece of shit, because...

  • they advertise themselves as degoogled, but instead let you connect to Google/Microsoft/etc services

  • replace all the propriatery not at all Secure Services from Google, with.... Drumroll please.... Propriatery and not at all Secure Services from themselves and actively encourage it.

  • They are For-profit

  • and being MORE out of date then even Fairphones stock roms.

... I told you so. Dm your Instance admin, pay them to send the DB entries of your Downvotes on a Thumb drive (or anything else from SSD to 3.5 inchHDD, depending on your preferences), and shove it up your rectum.

But a TL;DR:

/E/ is not Private. They just switch one bad comany to another one.

No, Android is not doomed. No, Android is not as bad as iOS. It takes 5 clicks to opt out of Gservices. If you are unable to do that, theres Degoogled Phones. Your Bank? Theres cheap used Phones.

To be honest, im more than Tired of this whole "Mimimi, Google is restricting installing Android apps, so its worse than iOS now Mimimi"

So heres 4 Options, how to Opt out of Gservices, and therefore not have this whole Debacle of Verified Apps, in varying degrees of Difficuilty from "3 Year old iPad kid can do this" (Aka install Via Browser) to "You have to Copy 3 Text snippets and Paste them", to even "Order Online".

And before everyone starts Crying, there are more than Enough Apps and Alternatives to the Propriatery stuff youve been using until now. No, you dont need a Burgerking App, no, you dont need an App for Kaufland. They are Selling your Data, and thats the only reason they Exist. If you consent with having your Data sold, you have no reason to opt out of Gapps anyway.

  1. Install Via Web Browser.
  1. Install Manually (aka. Paste 3 or so Lines into cmd)
  1. Adb and Magisk MicroG Module (Please use uBlocks Badware Filter list, as there are many fake Sites)
  1. Buy a Degoogled Phone

If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?

Genuine Question. Even if I look at hungarian Transport, and they to this day use trains from the UdSSR, they come more consistantly then the DB.

They are really Bad sometimes, with like 20 seperate prices: Theres the bayernwald ticket that only works in the alps, then theres the official ticket to the destination. Theres a special offer, but only in the very special APP. You can use a d-ticket, but look! Some random ass slum in the middle of the worlds ass dosent accept that, but it does the MVV zone Tickets. But then you need the MVV zone 11-M, a ticket to the beginning to the Nürnberg zones, and a ticket for the Nürnberg zones.

And yet this shit is better than americas rails? How?

Please for gods sake dont use CasaOS

  1. It is a For-profit without any means of Generating income (unlike Truenas or Suse which have a paid enterprise version)
  2. Since there is no way of making money, it is apparent they will pull a Plex and Enshittify once they have the noobs on board
  3. At least it uses docker, so you can export the images, but who knows when this will change
  4. It uses discord as forum. They cant even get themselves to use their own OS to install a matrix server on there.
  5. They are not even Private. Their FAQ literally says „They will try to limit data collection“

You want to use some shitty OS by some shitty company? Go sign your soul to Windows Server you lobotomite

Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

How do people keep snakes as pets?

Title says it all

Like, do snakes even know youre their friend? From the people ive seen, they are still trying to kill you and wrap themselves around your neck, so why do people still keep them and talk to them as pets?

My guinea pig still sometimes runs away from me, but she at least likes me and and my voice and just stops eating if I dont speak to her every day to the point that I needed to force feed her nutrient slop, she lets me cuddle her, etc

And snakes are just like: I will kill you the second I see you

According to the UN, there were some unexplained Man-made uranium Particles in unexplained places

Given that this is the only reason Israel and the US is Bombing them is this just makes them look even more like clowns, given that the US has the strongest Military, and with the UN they could have just… like gone in with a humvee and watched them more closely for a few months, and maybe destroyed anything looking like a bomb.

That would have solved the whole „Bombing“ Thing.
