DuckStation dev dropping support for Linux

make free open source software

people repackage for their distros

get mad when you receive support requests for outdated packages

change license to prevent further repackages

Linux users continue using old version to avoid restrictive license change

Continue to receive support requests for old packages before license change

crash out

Am I doing this right?

Women would literally rather be stuck with a bear rather than a man they do not know. So, is it sexism? Or is there a fundamental problem (read patriarchy) that makes women scared of men.

Do you think it’s sexist to report that men commit 90% of all rape and sexual assault?

Jeez dude you just don’t get it. There isn’t anything wrong with defending men but this comic doesn’t hate men. You thinking it does is part of the problem. This comic isn’t saying that all single men are rapists - hell we don’t even know if the single man they are showing is a rapist. What we, and women, do know is that men commit almost all SA. It’s a fact. The comic is playing into the fact that they market sex at men by saying “look strange women” and men fuck with it. Saying “look strange men” to women doesn’t typically illicit the same response.

The fact that you are so upset kinda makes me think you might be represented by this comic.

Yes you are being an asshole thanks for noticing. Also wtf are you on about - no where does it say “ALL SINGLE MEN ARE RAPIST.”

You saw yourself in this comic and got defensive - that “whores and sluts” line came naturally to you.

I’m trying to point out that if you aren’t a rapist, this comic shouldn’t offend you. It doesn’t criticize men - if it said single men are rapists, then I would be upset too and I’m not single. But it doesn’t. Instead it recognizes that women have good reasons to be scared of men, especially strangers, and so long as you’re not one of those reasons, this has nothing to do with you.

That’s not the punchline. The audience doesn’t even know if the man on the laptop is a rapist, could be a stand up dude. The punchline is that you can’t market sex to women the same way you market sex to men. Why? Well maybe you should ask a woman.

Whenever I see an extinct animal from the past few hundred years I get tremendously sad that we’ll never have the opportunity to listen to a David Attenborough documentary about them.

Classic you’re being downvoted by those with little internet common sense. The image is doctored and the patterns repeat frequently - you’re right.

E: feel free to downvote me all you want, that won’t make you any less wrong

Completely agree, and entitled gamers are some of the worst. Though I don’t think that should completely excuse our dev here from handling it poorly. They made their product worse and then was surprised when things got worse. Ultimately it’s their prerogative for which systems they choose to develop. Fortunately there are alternatives.
