The tusks know where they are because they know where they are not

It’s not an emergency if it can wait 15 minutes. So the line just doesn’t work for its intended purpose. That’s extraordinary failure.

Conservatism does sort of exist, but it’s all about conserving the social, economic, and power structures of the present. Honestly most so-called conservatives are actually reactionaries - they want to bring back the social, economic, and power structures of the recent past, i.e. reverse the past couple of decades of development. Mostly, of course, because they believe they were better off back then.

What if I want to take the cab but I’m not a cutie?

Fox News and some other outlets like it are pure propaganda. I don’t have an answer to it, but it’s very frustrating that we’re apparently so defenseless and helpless against something that’s intent on destroying democracy. We have no active defenses.

That’s not unique to capitalism. That’s just what living in a society made up of humans is like. Incompetence and malice (whichever applies) will exist for as long as there are people.

Are women more emotional than men? Maybe. Maybe not. But I’ve never heard anyone accuse Hillary Clinton of being too emotional.

You didn’t have to write this.

Would love to block .ml. The stuff coming out of there is just too dumb.

I’d be surprised if anyone has. You need to actually use a language to learn it properly. But an app is a good start and supplement.

The principal is not necessarily any smarter than the teachers. Often it’s the opposite.

Kinda agree, but the consoles already are alternatives to Windows. Don’t really see what’s super special about the Steam Deck, tbh.

Surprised Microsoft hasn’t made some sort of DRM to prevent Xbox studio games from being played on Proton, though.

I think most conspiracists are MAGA, tbh. They probably think all this is fine because it happened before or something.

Well, Intel tried with OneApi. As for AMD they go 5 minutes between every time they shoot themselves in the foot. It’s unbelievable to watch.

If it wasn’t Trump I’d agree. However, getting Palantir involved sounds less like unifying databases than creating a social credit score-kind of system, complete with political opinions and other kinds of sensitive data

That’s vile

Never let this guy negotiate anything. How does he get through life with that attitude?

I also wonder how much of it is RADV vs AMDGPU drivers. Wonder what the result would have been if the Deck used the AMDGPU drivers instead. Saying it is just “the magic of Linux” papers over a lot.

I think it’s what Valve has branded their fork of Wine. It translates win32 calls to Linux ones, and DirectX to Vulkan. Probably some other stuff too idk

You’re not wrong; highly regulated markets like medicine can be extremely dysfunctional. But lemonade is not medicine, so I feel like you’re moving the goalposts a bit here.
