honestly Ubuntu is getting too much shit by the Linux forum dwellers. it works great, is newbie friendly, and a lot of very specialized industry software, if they support any Linux whatsoever, it’s gonna be Ubuntu. I’ve started out with Ubuntu and if it wasn’t for them, i might not have sticked to it long enough to make it to arch by now

damn this goes deep - learning about pissing etiquette and ethical piracy at the same time 😂

very true though. i wish there was a more widespread code of honor. but most of us lack the insight.

whenever Nintendo is trying to take your money for a 100kb cloud save, steal. every entertainment industry has to also compete against piracy, and the successful ones win (steam, free and sometimes really massively generous cloud saves)

whenever they just try to release a game at a specific point in time, let them. that’s a really fair ask. don’t steal, and don’t publicize it…

the last 16 years had 4 years of republican rule. the democrats are very responsible for the fact that the feds are going after pirates (crime against rich stakeholders) instead of crimes against the members of the general American demographic as a principle.

the change from public servants to corporate military is a bipartisan problem, folks

well, you heard the website 😂 now install waydroid and their mobile app

i think people can change in their teenage years by the forced interaction in a small social environment at school. but once they reach adulthood, anyone in need of further personal growth just isolates and festers in their ways, avoiding confrontations that could prove them wrong. here’s to hoping that you who scrolled this far down in this lemmy thread make an unlikely friend when you least expect it and become a little better than before 😎👍

technicians just know what’s good. unfortunately every company becomes too big for its own good and inspirationless ghouls take over 😔 the palworld thing also just shows they could be so successful if they take off the shackles and make a good game, but now they want to shackle everyone else so no one can have good games

desktop icons will only render on 5090 😎

I’m kind of surprised what gets downvoted these days… do people actually not know that humans are imitation learners in almost every social and scientific aspect? 😨

good that the employees are predominantly debating who goes to which toilet ☺️ god forbid they notice the pay inadequacy.

😎 not to worry, corpo has directed your tax money towards righting this wrong. all will be well soon!

now they’re nostalgic about unhappiness 😂😡

i think it might be a problem with the design of the rest of the game, maybe too many distracting elements necessitate the yellow paint. in real life i can function without yellow paint. i used to be fine without it in games, especially hitman contracts for example. it could be due to graphical fidelity, which seems one of the reasons battlebit made such a surprise success in the military shooters. in modern games with too many 3d rendered objects you can’t see clearly what’s going on - in real-life you at least have depth information to distinguish things, it’s not all in the same plane in front of you.

however, i found the old hitmans so much more immersive. i really disliked feeling guided around as if it was a theme park in the latest ones

joke’s on anon, the only thing nsa ever wanted is spy on everyone’s dickpics without having to go in person

doesn’t need a chain. many companies save money offloading the application process to an external website, and that one manages it for a lot of different companies and then sells your data

your sis needs to make a dotfile git 😎

I’ll have the 20x leveraged please 👌😎

they look at how most of us seem to be able to pay landlords and got jealous 😂

don’t know about op’s claims but one time a crack actually affected my computer - in a really goofy way. it just installed a background wallpaper that was advertising for canned tuna, all in Russian 😂 the brand didn’t even exist where i lived. also i could easily reset the background, so it wasn’t malicious at all.

That’s precisely why I didn’t blame windows in my post, but the windows-consumer mentality of “yeah install with privileges, shove genshin impact into ring 0 why not”

Linux can have the same issue. We have to keep the culture on our side here vigilant and pure near the kernel.
