I’m just bitching, but I had to put windows on one of my machines for the first time in just over 10 years (since I was a kid) and I absolutely fucking hate it. slow ass, bloated, clunky ass OS. garbage software.

I pretty much did this at my first coding job lol I was building an online menu that you flip through with the keys lol

Well, right now it seems to be going the other way around, as we begin to remove and rewrite American history to our liking -- largely exclud9ing slavery and the near genocide of the native American population, Jim Crow, Civil Right and much more.

Furthermore, we need to address why, as a democracy, we voted for an icon for racism, sexism and incompetence; and what that says about where we are at right now. However, we can't seem to agree on the color of shit once it is known that one is engaging with he opposite side. How can we hope to have such grand conversations when we can't even have the most elementary ones?

I am similar.

I have found the process to be rather overly complicated; though I do recognize some benefit in more granular control in certain areas. Between running different versions of wine and proton, I have been able to do everything I've needed to and wanted to do with far less steps and time invested into the setup. I haven't really thought about bottles again until now.

However, I do think that it is important to support projects like these anyway -- as gaming on Linux is one of the few consistent barriers for people switching over from windows or mac; just because it isn't my cup of tea or that I personally don't see the benefit of it doesn't mean that there isn't a whole community of people who prefer to use bottles and enjoy the fine control over runners and such. In a larger sense, I think supporting them would be supporting gaming on Linux as a whole.

It’s definitely not me

this is like when I built that web server in x86 assembly lol.

I’m more interested in why the nation thought that voting for a man who is (at least) politically retarded would have been a great thing in any way, shape or form. Like no one would hire someone who has never touched a computer in their life as CTO of some company; but we would vote Donald trump into one of the most powerful positions in the nation with no real credentials, experience or education in law and governance at all. Baffles me.

See? This is that shit i was talking about when he first ran when i was still in high school. Dude is so fucking oblivious.

This is near perfectly said.

"Twitter XXX" rebrand when?

Oh it’s the best. I can run just about any game now between proton, wine and other Linux tools for gaming like lutris or play-on-Linux. Gaming on Linux has come a long way.
