Oh you sweet summer child.

gestures at my entire uni classroom, in which nearly all the people I know have RGB peripherals and computers at home

What do you think about Pinephones? I’m thinking about buying one as my next phone.

I have to agree. I used to play Rainbow 6 with my friends. I enjoyed it, because I was addicted to gaming and they were the only friends I had. After I switched to Linux, I couldn’t play R6 online, which led to them… well… not being friends with me anymore. I’m glad I got out, because if the only thing keeping them being friends with me were the all-nighters of Rainbow, there was no friendship to speak of (I knew these people offline, not just online). After this I eventually stopped gaming completely, not because of a few very minor compatibility issues, but because I realised how much time I was wasting gaming.

So essentially, not only did Linux help me get back control of my computing, but it also completely eradicated my gaming addiction and helped realise what functioning relationships look like, since I even started socialising more. An absolute bargain!

Yakuza branch? I want to know more, I hate Nintendo.

Fair enough. But again, I seriously doubt that Duolingo uses something not supported in Firefox…

This is definitely the case, but I wonder why companies don’t add a button, such as “Access website without support”, that would get you to the site while clearly telling you that any technical problems (of which, in 99% of cases, there will be none, since all of this seems like supporting Google internet dominance) will be ignored by support.

Are you talking about speed or the amount of data you can transfer? If the speed is unlimited then oh boy, gonna move to Mexico :)

Didn’t think about that. Thanks for pointing it out!

Very good solution. However, what benefit does the user get by formatting the drive every time a new game is to be installed? I mean, the thing already doesn’t have internet access and no important data is on the drive anyway. Am I missing something?

Please. For the love of god, NEVER use a proprietary app to use a piece of FOSS software. I think it’s kind of sad that we have this amazing FOSS social network and people use fucking proprietary software to use it.

What You See Is What You Get

Thinkpad T60. A relative of mine got it from their employer, IBM, as a decommisioned machine that was only used by said relative. I was 4 years old. I played hours of GTA: San Andreas, then about a year later I installed Ubuntu which sent me down the Linux and C programming rabbit hole. I learned so much. Thank you, kind relative (whom I’ll not name, not doxxing myself).

Why? Never heard of it but it seems similar to Tails. I’d rather use Tails than something I’ve never heard about, but is there anything inherently wrong with it?

Donald Trump

Oh, wait. He wasn’t fictional…

Nothing, really. I only check the chats with my best friends, look at the time, and check the school timetable (I do have it on paper, but they always make some changes and then I’m the idiot for going to the wrong class…)

As a fellow cli junkie, I made my own script like this years ago. But I got rid of it as part of debloating my system. Whenever I want to extract something, I create a directory and move the archive there.

Name one current country that’s not capitalist. I’ll wait.

I agree I should have phrased that better. Something like a “secret agent following you wherever you go” maybe?

That nearly everyone is carrying a tracking device with them, designed to disguise itself as a convenient entertainment device.

And here I thought I was decent in Math… Thank you for the explanation :)
