More and more games are shipping with mega sus kernel level anti cheat which can (and does according to their EULA) take screenshots and files from your PC to make sure you "aren't cheating".

Valorant, for example, is made by riot, owned by tencent, owned by the Chinese government, and has a nasty kernel anti cheat in it.

So this means that with essentially no effort or changes the Chinese gov can just take this file and related screenshots of everything you do wrapped in a bow

And they 100% will do this.

Libadwaita is only compatible with gnome and only works with gnome. Other DE's can try to make it work in their DE, but the experience for them is hostile.

To put it mildly, gnome devs are being dicks about it as much as they can be, because they consider themselves the only "real" desktop environment to Linux.

If you want your apps to be cross platform, you can just use gtk3/gtk4 instead, or any other ui library. Even QT.

I use gnome ATM because I think paperwm is the best desktop experience on any OS, but the gnome DE devs are just assholes and they break my heart.

Yeah!

Except for... You know... Taipan's... Fierce snakes... Stone fish... Blue ringed octopuses... Box jellyfish... Irukanji jellyfish... Gimpi gimpi trees... Bats carrying lyssa virus... White tail spiders... Mosquito's carrying Ross river virus and/or dengue fever... Etc etc etc....

We definitely should reward it, and respect it. But people.are assholes, and that's not a fixable problem

Ah... This guy sounds a bit like a prima dona tbh. This shit is standard fare for all open source projects.

If you can't handle the heat...

As someone who learned about Ai in uni and now works in Ai, this shit is straight up bullshit and its infuriating.

The most obvious thing about this being all bullshit is that the LLM's don't have their own idle emergent "thought" - they are purely reactive, so not sentient. Case closed for fucks sake.

Go slow, pick an easy distro like pop OS and take it easy.

If its for gaming, even https://nobaraproject.org/ is great as it has a lot of gaming optimisations.

Remember, Linux with a GUI is not more complicated than windows with a GUI, you have just spent your whole life learning the windows one.

I have been using the new beeper. It's life changing. Having all my conversations in just one app is actually making me talk to me friends more. It's great!

Fuck iMessage though. Don't know why people give such a shit.

Valve forever more have my support just because of proton. Letting me get off windows to game has been revolutionary for me.

I maintain that tailwind is still an anti pattern. Things like stylex are the way forward for component based systems, I feel.
