In good theory, what they want is to have foreign companies employ Aryan… sorry, White™ Muricans exclusively, from material extraction to end consumer. In practice, what do they even have to gain with that arrangement, where they can be far more flexible with their production chain elsewhere?

BRB asking a rabbi if it’s kosher to bring a ska band to the next Rosh Hashanah

Back on Reddit, there were even complaints that EA’s anticheat was conflicting with Riot’s anticheat. Yep, now you potentially need two different installations of Windows to run each of your games. At this point, you would need to buy several SSDs and a SSD extension (or an external USB reader, since USB speeds nowadays are relatively fast enough to afford running those games from an external drive), then install each game (and operative system) in a different one, and swap between them before booting, just like a cartridge. Same would go, of course, for your actual main GNU/Linux drive that contains your actual personal data - that way, the anticheat can’t even see your personal information, as it’d physically unplugged from your computer. And since Windows checks the license per motherboard, not per drive, you should be able to recycle the activation key between your Valorant “cartridge” and your Battlefield “cartridge”. At this point, paying for a dedicated game console and the online pass starts becoming attractive…

…That, or just boycott multiplayer games altogether. If your group of friends doesn’t mind, of course.

The Zionist/Semitic merger has done too much harm to the world at large

Missed the chance of writing it as “testing different bistros” but yeah, facts no printer

Somebody online said that she probably got a discount on the originals thanks to her rerecordings devaluating the value of the first records - and, you know, that’s a galaxy brain move

You mean “boycott all privative culture and start learning how to not depend on entertainment to have a fulfilling life” right?

We should be boycotting all art and entertainment from Big Media in its entirety, but nobody is willing to do so

Any plans to start saving up to move elsewhere, by the way?

On one hand, nice to see support for ARM - on the other hand, hopefully that can trickle down to Linux down the line one way or another.

It might be my inner prescriptivist at work, but while I understand the need for a singular they, I absolutely loathe it’s accompanied with a singular are. If the language is being reformed, why not take a page out of AAVE and start using “they’s” and “you’s”?

Since engaging in society means indirectly endorsing all of its evils, and even interacting with questionable people is functionally equivalent to platforming them, the only ethical thing to do is to become a self-sufficient hermit. Problem is, there aren’t enough terrains on this planet to allot one fully decked farm for each inhabitant…

Ah yes, Lieutenant William Guile, or as I like to call him, “Bill Guile the Sonic Guy”

Homarr is more or less turnkey, as long as you use Docker to deploy your services.

My dad once made me dig my own grave.

…We were building the family niche at our local cemetery and he needed help to dig the base

To be fair, he’s got a day job as an IT architect in an university, so I think he’s set in regards to finances. Codevelopers on the other hand, those would come handy - especially for knowledge transfer

My relatively obscure and hopeless choice is Golden Sun 4

“Could you please not use the phone? Gotta dial up to connect to the BBS”

Note to self: download them as PDFs for future reference

Considering that I don’t have a car, I’ve been boycotting most media and many brands for years, and I have no friends because nobody shares the same ethics as I do? Yeah every purchase is and should be a moral dilemma. (The proper solution is to drop society and go raise my own crops in the middle of the mountains, someday I’ll save up to do just that)
