When The Meme Becomes Real

Reply in thread

I was more so just reflecting on how much time has passed since 2012 when AdviceAnimals memes like this were still relevant and popular. Unfortunately, much more time than "5 years" has passed since those days, we are all old now and the time is gone :(

Cool... I guess.

If we have things like Heroic on Linux, and if they are just bringing the Epic Game Store only and not the anti cheat, then who cares. Nothing has really changed then, as we were always able to play all non-online games from our Epic libraries anyways.

Plus you can bet your ass that the new and official EGS app will have SO MANY issues when that is released. It was a mess (still kinda is) even on Windows. So many bugs. I wouldn't be surprised if many Linux users will just continue using the alternatives for the smaller resources it takes up.

Amazing how much MAGA hated solar power except when it's to help them spy

Meanwhile everyone's homes electricity are at risk of being shut off in order to "help save the grid" when, at least in my case, we are charged extra each month by the electric company (fuck you Xcel Energy) in order to help build up the power grid infrastructure they explicitly asked for. Yet, years after this has been happening, there's still no added infrastructure in place and even a few months ago Xcel told me they might need to shut off my areas electricity for a few hours in order to "lessen the load" on the grid. Motherfucker, what did you do with all that money you overcharged me on for 3 years straight then?

I swear, if the startup cost for getting solar panels wasn't so expensive, I'd just do that all myself. I have no faith these electricity companies will build green power, or even upgrade the grid enough to handle these garbage data centers. You'd think they would just build a solar farm with batteries in order to not, ya know, shut off people's electricity during peak hours and let them possibly boil or freeze to death. It's crazy. These companies should shut off the data centers FIRST, not our homes! Don't leave us holding the bag for your mistake.
