Gaming on Linux is getting a ton better, but still requires a lot of knowledge and patience

Start with Ubuntu, mostly because it has a big enough user base and following that there are millions of articles about every problem you could have.

Start using ChatGPT whenever you encounter a problem as it’s really good at debugging and interpreting error messages.

“It’s really hard to aim the neutron beam at something so small”

…. Kidding

Continuous Mozilla hit pieces coming out….

I wonder which company motivated only by greed and the fact that their entire business model is “obliterating your privacy” is behind them

Gotta pay the bills somehow, and I’m just happy they care about privacy.

With enough voltage, everything is a conductor.

It’s because they appear to be something they’re not.

They’re usually friendly and fun and do all sorts of employee retention activities like arranging go karting and such…

They seem like they’re there almost as union stewards, to try and help retain employees and ensure you’re treated well by management. This is not the case. They’re there to protect the company from lawsuits originated by you. This means that they’ll apply rules and such in ways that are not usually beneficial to you.

They’re actually really helpful if you have issues with a coworker! However, you need to remember that despite how friendly they seem, they’re not actually in your corner, they have their own agenda.

So the simple answer is that they aren’t bad at all, but it can feel bad if you thought they were your friend.

And most of those episodic shows are just there for the humour. They don’t have an arc because they’re just there to make fun of something for 20 minutes and move on.

Oh for sure, there’s some really great ones that don’t fit my generalisation.

The problem is that too many do fit it. And all the biggest ones seem to.

Anyways, you’re right.

Yep, there are a ton of those too.

Because most of it uses overly simplistic characters. There’s no depth to them. They’re good because they’re good, they’re bad because they’re bad.

No nuance!

The stories are overly simplistic too.

Not all of them are like this, but enough of them are that I’m just tired of the genre.

I’m the one getting snippy? Hahaha okay.

I read the article, I’m just commenting about the world around the article from a small step back, and I tried to help you see that.

Have a nice day.

Well I tried to show you what’s happening, I’m sorry you’re not seeing it, but I’m done. Have a nice day.

Maybe you’re missing the connection here.

Facebook is implementing features to prevent some types of advertising, as per the article.

Facebook allows the purchase of the exact same advertising, so long as you pay their fee.

It’s just a different flavour of the same shit.

These days I have to create a spam filter for my phone notifications, let alone emails.

WhatsApp is owned by Facebook and you can pay them for corporate accounts and advertising.

How dare they advertise without giving WhatsApp (aka Facebook) a cut of the profits!

I’ve yet to see any decent ones

We are all too easy to manipulate.

The more data they have on us, the easier it is.

Damn, this needs to be at the top.

We need to free ourselves from the shackles of roles-past.

That’s what feminism did.

So what if I’m not the breadwinner?

So what if I cry at sappy moments in movies?

So what if I need validation for my feelings?

Society is still okay with pushing this onto men, and it needs a moment of unity to say “this does not define me as a man”
