Ah yes, I forgot folks with ADHD are also insane. /s

For folks with ADHD, like myself, slow talking video essays are a special kind of hell.

The problem with days old threads is I never remember the context. Looks like they were asking if Steams data would be more reliable. Tbh, I think Steam is great for gaming stats, not for general use stats. Statcounter supposedly uses what the browser reports when participating websites are visited.

I’m happy to see more Linux gamers don’t get me wrong. Steam is specifically gathering specs on people who game, the other stat counter (that reports 4% Linux use) is based on what people’s browsers are reporting.

Steam is only installed on one of my computers, I have at least four running Linux. Not to mention plenty of Linux users don’t game at all, so probably not.

From the archlinux.org news post on the issue.

Arch does not directly link openssh to liblzma, and thus this attack vector is not possible.

I feel like they called themselves Godzilla but had to change it so they decided on Gojira. They have some heavy environmentalist themes to their lyrics so, makes sense.

Edit: they did, and they were legally compelled to change their name. Gojira is fine apparently. 👍

It’s a Timber Wolf from Battletech/MechWarrior also known as a Mad Cat because on radar, it would flicker between Marauder (MAD), and Catapult (CAT).

At the end of the day these platforms do one thing, deliver content. Ideally with proper federation you’d never have to screenshot a post from one platform to repost it 100 times to another.

Also, like it or not, for every bad idea on platform X, there are just as many on platform Y. The biggest differences come down to how the content is sorted, presented, and interacted with.

The core similarity of all these platforms is content aggregation. The differences come down to how that content is served, categorized, and interacted with. Federation ideally distributes content to relevant communities, based on interest, regardless of platform preference.

Edit: Also, people you don’t like will be on every site. We have tools to democratically tell those people we don’t like their ideas, so using them will make every platform better.

Yeah, this seems like the business equivalent of a slap in the face to the original devs.

“These ‘CAT’ cables, they aren’t made out of real cat right?”

Most devs have expressed they’d rather you pirate than use key sites. With the anti-cheat they used that maybe difficult, but a key site purchase usually doesn’t pay the developer a dime. Where if you hadn’t entered a key, you could still purchase the game, even on sale, and support the developers.

Idk man, give me all the shit you want. I don’t have answers, I’m just frustrated and feel like I’m dying every day but can’t afford to see a doctor so, fuck me I guess.

all for rent control. Sadly it reminds me of my old neighborhood. We were supposed to get new “low income” housing nearby and I was stoked for that to bring more life to the area. Nope, NIMBY-ass neighbors had to block the street in protest… and the city caved. I was heartbroken and even told the snooty neighbor who came to our door the next day, “I live here with roommates. I’M LOW INCOME. I live here quietly, we are considerate to the neighborhood. I’m sorry we’re so unwelcome here.”

Now expensive town houses are there and last I saw, they were mostly empty and priced upwards of $800k.

I think people jump on revolution so quickly, because it feels like the ship is sinking and we’re debating on which rooms to mop first. Well, those who are already up to their necks in water, have little concern for the wet shoes of the people above, and quite frankly don’t deserve to drown simply because they work below deck.

I asked for some feedback. You shot me down. Put up, or shut up and get your bad faith bullshit out of here.

Nah, you have someone starting a dialogue. This is my comment you’ve branched off on so, don’t handwave me away like I’m another random voice chiming in.

I said in another comment here, “People matter more than money, and without people money doesn’t matter.”

This is literally the nuance you seem to want, a dialogue exploring the topic. If you are pro-capitalism, you must hold an awful lot of capital, if you hold a lot of capital, your arguments for you holding that capital are highly biased. If you are pro-capitalism and you don’t hold a lot of capital, why are you helping them and why is it so important to you that people like me suffer?

I think it’s that we’ve all been over this a million times, and we’re suffering while bickering about steps.

My conclusion: “People matter more than money, and without people money wouldn’t matter.”

If you want to get more nuanced please try. That’s about as bulletproof and simple as it gets.

Okay how do I persuade the rich to stop being rich because it’s unsustainable? Don’t worry, I’ll wait.
