Get ready for the lemm.ee accounts to disappear in a few days. I bet the total amount is veeery similar.

We live in a soc

Piefed Voyager beta? Thanks for the heads up, I’ll look it up!

You mentioned tons of fantasy subgenres, but the one I was singling out is sci-fi, which is not something classical fantasy fans are usually fans of.

If you put add SciFi into the bag and remove a huge part of the books, keeping only the bestsellers, no wonder the statistics are so different.

I’d say that it’s you who has skewed the comparison here.

I get your point but you are comparing phones with consoles. I don’t think that apple’s case can be used as precedent here.

It’s a reference to Goya a Spanish painter.we don’t really know if this painting was about chronos, that’s a theory.

A comment on your note of the story, MH has never really been about story, but it has always been about the cycle of life and the balance of the ecology or whatever. The fact that we murder entire populations of monsters nonstop has never been an issue in the +10 titles they have. Idk why people are so pissed about it now.

It’s true that the low-rank story is too railroaded, but once you are out of the long tutorial, the game does open up.

That’s the sentiment that allows these rich fucks to avoid paying taxes without big backlash. First focus on collecting, then on spending…

It’s more nuanced though. Here’s how rich people use charities to gain wealth:

Rich person has tons of money that would be taxed if bill Y passes. Rich person creates a charity and donated 20% of what they would had to pay to the IRS to the charity, with that money the charity uses half for good causes and half is given to X lobby company, which then lobbies politicians to avoid passing that bill.

In the end, the rich person saved 80% of what they would had to pay.

Yeah, 10% went to good causes but imagine what the society could afford if 100% went through instead of 0.

This is a very rough outline of how they do it, but the summary is that they use charities to donate to lobbies while skipping taxes on the donation itself.

Have you watched the video or read the subtitles? Title is horribly wrong.

The title is completely different from what he’s saying he’s saying that deals should be public, not that they should not be made. What shitty propaganda title is this?

Booooy, read about sandy hook, the infowars dude lost a lawsuit so big he had to apparently sell infowars, and the onion won the bid.

Then the dude tried to null the bid or something, and the comic happened.

At some point, if enough people are annoyed and the alternative is just as valid, the annoyance of getting used to the new term is worthwhile.

I was annoyed by the change like 5ish years ago, when the movement started, but now idc anymore.

You said that the kernel anticheat problem will never be solved, I challenged that, not that this is seen as a Linux problem for the end user or not.

I play all the games I want to play, no one wants to play all the games, there’s no physical time to do so.

Also, all of this is in the context of a tech savvy person. A tech savvy person can tweak almost all games to run properly nowadays… I do and I’m not THAT savvy.

It’s kinda funny you mention all those points to me, when I’ve been gaming on Linux for about 3 years now. I play on steam, use heroic for gog games, play a lot of modded D2… All in Linux. Saying that Microsoft treats backwards compatibility and support when they are forcing everyone to either pay for win10 support or join the win11 spyware mafia is a ludicrous statement btw.

Games with kernel-level anticheat do work on Linux, if the anticheat provider has done the work. Right now, most don’t and actively stopped supporting Linux so saying that won’t work ever is kind of a stretch.

“Isn’t good enough to replace windows” - here I am playing Modded games, path of exile, ffxiv, other FF games, cyberpunk, all PC monster Hunter games… Your statement is false.

I see nothing wrong with using a compatibility layer, it does the work of retrocompatibility alongside separating game environments, which is good for security.

Oh, sure. Agreed that at the time the proton Linux ecosystem was pretty under developed.

But to be excited now about a windows handheld is a whole other story, specially because of the battery as stated.

Unless you want to play TFT on the handheld for some god forsake reason I see no point on it being windows. But I ditched widows for all my PCs and I’m very tech savvy so I’m biased.

The big problem with windows handhelds is battery, there is a huge difference in consumption. I highly doubt that “most steam deck purchasers installed windows” (if that’s what you meant), you need a high technical level to do so and people are used to being limited to a single store in a console anyway.

As a comp sci that interacts a lot with engineers, I feel this in my soul.

As they should, if that’s the only thing you are using it for, don’t introduce a whole header file, just put the following in the constants.h or equivalent that the proj for sure has:

#define M_PI   3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Yes, it’s literally what math.h has defined.
