Well, no point wasting good wine lol

I feel weird because I’ve like never had a problem with bed temperature lol maybe pillows but even then that hasn’t been a problem for me in years.

I think that message is only on some distros. I have seen it before but I can’t remember when, it’s been a while.

That makes no sense to me, because you will literally have feces from animals, dead birds and other animals, etc.

I assumed you knew I was talking about the DXVK dev given that he’s literally an employee of Valve, as you mentioned. Either way, I’ll now be more detailed with my comment.

Of course all the contributors to Wine deserve credit too, and I do have an active Crossover license, but Valve are the ones who explicitly made a push for gaming on Linux and focused specifically on the gaming aspect. Wine covers everything, not just gaming, Proton is specifically for gaming. It’s doubly true given that they want to sell more units of the Steam Deck so they can get more people into the Linux and Valve ecosystem. Not that you don’t know that, but it’s worth pointing out regardless.

I’ve been daily driving Linux since before Proton was even a thing, and the difference between gaming then versus now is not even comparable, it is infinitely better now and keeps improving. I no longer have to hope that a new game will work or that I can somehow manage to get the right set of libraries and flags to get it to run, if a new game comes out and it doesn’t have a kernel-level anti-cheat, I can expect that it will work out of the box just fine without any tweaking because I have seen this happen multiple times now. I’ve even started getting into Mac gaming to get some of that tweaking and configuring thrill back that I used to get from Linux gaming, having to tweak and configure things to get them to work properly or to work even better.

Depending on the games you play, thanks to Valve with Proton and Steam Deck, most games are actually already playable on Linux. The only exception is newer multi-player online games with kernel-level anticheat. I haven’t done any gaming on Windows in years pretty much.

That’s hilariously disgusting. lol

I’d say “expected” might be a more fitting word.

That’s if it’s as high as 1%, I’d argue it might be 0.1% or less. It is one of the nerdiest things.

I think you’d be surprised. The average person has trouble remembering to check a device is plugged in when they’re wondering why it won’t turn on. People generally don’t know what “hosting” means, let alone “self-hosting”, it’s far nerdier than you give us all credit for.

How many people in your city know what self-hosting even is, though? Is it anywhere near hundreds or even tens of thousands? I’d be shocked if it was even 1000 in my city. I’m willing to bet every single person in this thread has technical skills that far exceed the average person.

Yeah America is just cooked at this point, fascism took over.

Sure, I was just confused by the time period of which there was a 10% drop in BTC price - it’s now up 0.87% today, down 5.54% over the past 5 days, up 1.24% over the past month, and up 37% over the past 6 months, none of those are down 10%.

How did it drop 10% when it’s up 0.41% today?

I don’t get it either

MAGAts are typically older, so they have less technical knowledge, so they’re more likely to fall for AI slop and conspiracy theories.

I disagree, I have literally heard of people being laid off because managers think that AI can and will replace actual workers, I have literally seen it too. It’s already happening.

Definitely not, laws are only for the poors.

I think it’s because it’s the idea if you’re comfortable being rude to chatbots and you’re used to typing rude things to chatbots, it makes it much easier for it to accidentally slip out during real conversations too. Something like that, not really as much as it being about anthropomorphizing anything.

He looks like such a LARPer.

IIRC there was also a study or something done that said something to the effect of being rude to chatbots affects you outside of chatbots and carries into other parts of your work.
