I’d rather it didn’t rain today, but it did and I still needed to bring an umbrella no matter how much I didn’t like the rain.

I haven’t seen anything saying it was sponsored (other than by a news aggregator) and getting a lot of shit on the Internet isn’t any indication of being incorrect. The video is still up and no mention of anything like what you’re talking about.

Is Coal and Gas is your preferred energy source? Because that’s what nuclear would be replacing.

The water use issue is largely blown out of proportion or not compared to other sources of water use.

The US Corn industry alone uses 80x the water usage of the entire global AI industry.

Gosh, you sure got me. I certainly look like an idiot basing my opinion on what you wrote.

Thanks to your sarcastic reply I’ve learned to read the mind of commenters before replying.

What an idiot I am for not realizing all of the troubleshooting steps that you’ve taken simply because you never mentioned them.

I agree.

I don’t doubt that it could be the graphics card. It is just that we don’t have the information to say for sure and their description leaves a lot of other possibilities.

It could be about 1,000 different things, including hardware issues completely unrelated to the OS. I also have a PC with a 7900XTX on Linux 6.18.2, using Plasma/Wayland and I’ve never had an unrecoverable system crash. Two of the other people that I game with are also running the exact same setup (Arch,btw/Linux6.18.2/Plasma/Wayland) without issue.

Blaming graphics cards sometimes feels like a meme. Its like if someone has any kind of problem and happen to mention that they use NVIDIA, you’ll see a huge portion of commenters, with nothing other to add, jump in to imply that it’s probably the NVIDIA card.

Touch grass comrade

I’d frame the censure letter and hang it on my office wall

Everyone knows who’s the patriot here.

This isn’t corporate social media, you can say suicide there’s no algorithm to punish you.

Edit: this is satire, I clearly interact with these people far too often to have done this good of a job.

Imagine if The Onion had to say this.

Your target audience understood, the people downvoting probably are Ubuntu users anway.

Yeah, it took me a while to figure out what the problem was. If you disable the steam overlay in the game’s options, the controller should connect directly to the game (via SDL) instead failing to go through Steam Input.

Void Linux+Gnu

Uhh, it’s GNU SLASH Linux actually

The Gentoo wiki is pretty good too

Actual reenactment:

All you need to know is that, whatever you pick, you made the wrong choice and you will be roasted if you ever attempt to explain your decision.

Unless you use Arch, then you have chosen correctly.

I would like it to just work too. That would be amazing. Spending time fixing bluetooth or HDR issues is annoying, 100%. I understand your point.

Like everything, it’s about choosing the trade-off that’s best for you.

The reason that you don’t have to fix these problems yourself in Apple/Microsoft products is that they invest millions of dollars in software engineering labor in order to cover every possible contingency and hardware configuration available and they expect a return on that investment. Instead of spending your time fixing bluetooth issues you can pay money to subsidize Microsoft/Apple fixing it. That has been, for quite a while, the best deal available in personal computing.

Except now they don’t just want to sell you a box with software in it that operates your computer. They also want to spy on you, lock down your device, prevent you from repairing your own system and trap you in a walled garden of subscription services and use their monopoly power to prevent any other alternatives from being able to offer better services.

I don’t like this new bargain, I’d rather write a script or read a wiki. The FOSS world is full of people who understand this dilemma and we’re all working together to make computers better for everyone. Part of that is helping our fellow users come onboard and deal with the issues that they’re facing, that’s what I was aiming for (and even if you don’t need the information, it may help some reader).

Why would you remove the french root, it is the source of all power in the GNU+Linux
