Btw games from GOG and other platforms will also work well under Linux. I can confirm that in a lot of cases, especially when it comes to old games, better than on windows, ironically.

Check out Lutris and Heroic game launchers. They support a lot of storefronts. Steam is supported through those or natively.

As for software: you will mostly have to switch to Linux alternatives. Like for Microsoft office: Only Office or LibreOffice.

As for Adobe stuff: someone recently did install it but 1/2

From what I’ve been able to find online you would have to re-download your games (steam, I assume) because when they are installed under windows directly they rely on registry entries and such. This stuff is apparently handled differently when you install it through Linux

It MIGHT work if you use Steam’s internal game files backup feature, copy the backup files to an external drive and then restore them under Linux

But to be sure you’d have to ask the larger Linux community directly on Reddit.

When has any of those types considered themselves “wealthy enough”?

Bezos could give like 99% of his wealth and not feel a difference to his lifestyle. But nah. The bank account numbers must always grow.

These kinds of people are beyond any type of reasoning. They are deeply and irreparably broken.

…and then pushed him and tried to force open the door of the pub…

So it’s not assault if a woman does it to a man and not the other way round?

Guys! I’ve just come up with an actual good use for AI! Set up a camera and hook it up to AI that detects spitting assholes and have it trigger an extending arm with a boxing glove to hit them in the face cartoon-style.

May also need like some sort of slider system to adjust to a guy’s height. And a compressor to recharge the pressure on the extending arm.

When I turned 18 (drinking age in my country) I went to the supermarket to buy my first booze. My neighbor with whom I rode a skateboard with sometimes as a kid happened to be the one selling it to me. He recognized me immediately and said “you’re not 18”. I said “uhh, yes I am”. He looked at my ID, took a moment to do the math and also visibly died a bit inside.

To him I was still the little boy with the skateboard.

Maybe there could be a case for some speed humps and perhaps a chicane there.

The Israelis are rotten to the fucking core. I hope Iran fucks them up real good so they can have a taste of their own medicine.

There probably are some decent people there but honestly, I have yet to see evidence of that. Even when there were protests, they only started after Iran started bombing Izrael. They were quiet about everything going on until it was their house that got bombed and suddenly it wasn’t fun anymore.

Fuck them.

I love that Luigi is becoming a mascot for those things. Has the added benefit of seriously pissing off Nintendo. Who deserve it entirely.

They took down several great retro game and abandonware archive websites by threatening the owners with lawsuits because they also had NES roms. Why? So that they could release their NES mini with a dozen or so games. For that they destroyed decades of people’s archiving efforts.

It hit me that the very phone I’m holding in my hands has batteries made with cobalt that may have been mined by child slaves like these.

I’m gonna consider getting a Fairphone but it’s such a shame the new model kinda sucks… but it’s probably the only way to ensure it was made at least somewhat more ethically.

I love carbs but I’m doing keto now and I’m losing weight, sleeping better, feeling better, have more energy, don’t ever feel big hunger.

Carbs are not good for the body. But they sure as hell are good for the soul. Can’t wait till I lose enough weight so I can eat pasta and pizza again.

Can confirm that in my EU country there’s also plenty of Rome and Greece stuff in history textbooks. Persia is mentioned but mainly in the context of having been powerful but eventually conquered. Carthage? I don’t think that was mentioned at all. Only other ancient civilization that was briefly mentioned was Sumer.

I also felt salty that there was very little about Asian countries. Japan is mentioned, obviously, but China? Barely anything.

Like she said: she’s known them for 20 years and said nothing as long as she could reap the benefits.

Of course her silence is for sale. And they will buy it and it will all go away again.

#2 “god does not bless any conflict”

Off the top of my head I can remember at least three times there was a “conflict” while some knights went on a spicy walk and I’m pretty sure the popes at the time did bless it and thus were blessed by god as per his promise to St. Peter:

“Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven".

Gawd damn if you asked me before if it’s even possible to rotate a board around a pipe like this, especially while having another pipe between your legs I’d say hell no.

But here we are. This guy shreds.
