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.
Hank Green on YT goes over it in more details and with citations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_c6MWk7PQc
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.
Your options to try out Linux without disrupting your Windows experience are:
WSL, which is using a Linux kernel that is running in a VM (WSL 2). This will let you run some Linux applications on Windows.
Live Disk, This gives you a full Linux environment but may lack persistence (your settings are loss on reboot) and performance issues (using a USB drive as a system drive is slow).
Linux on a VM, This gives you a full Linux environment with persistence and good performance but you won’t have access to your hardware, like your graphics card, to do things like gaming (You maybe able to use passthrough, I haven’t used Windows VM software in quite a while).
Dual Boot, The full Linux experience. Requires another hard drive or a willingness to resize your partitions (which could* destroy your Windows install).
The installation step is trivialized on some distros, just a simple series of dialog boxes. Like installing Windows was in the 00’s before you had to watch streaming ads and give it access to your medical records while creating your OneMicrosoft Online Co-365-Pilot Teams Drive Pro account.
*I have literally never had a single problem resizing partitions in 20 years of doing this, but it is technically possible if you lose power or are really unlucky with the cosmic ray lottery.
e: To your question directly: As long as you’re not trying to mess with Window’s system partition you should technically be able to resize/create partitions, create a new file system, copy files, and add a boot entry from inside of Windows. Ubuntu was the last big project to have a sustained effort to attract new users, WUBI was a big part of that project. Now, there just isn’t as much interest.
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.
I agree with all of that. The 5 million goal was a bad design, in other extraction shooters the week/days leading up to the wipe is always full of people doing crazy things with gear that’s getting deleted anyway. Having to save every piece of equipment until the very end just feels bad.
I’d like to see more gear along the lines of the Hullbreaker. Items that are specifically for fighting the ARC and, because of their properties are less useful against players, they could give you ‘gamebreaking’ abilities/damage/etc without worrying about the weapons being used to dominate PvP.
Then maybe some kind of frontline PvE ARC raid with species of ARC that are more dangerous than the ones in the plains/foothills.
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.
I like how it is implemented, other extraction games force the reset. Making it optional means I’m not going to give up at the first wipe and never come back and I don’t play enough to notice another player having 4 more skill points than me.
Oh then you should just play Oxygen Not Included, a much more relaxed and simple colony sim
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.
This is an odd card to play because she also murders a lot of people and mentally dominates an entire race.
I think, compared to these absolute crimes against humanity, that her journey to self-actualization seems an odd nit to pick.
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).
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.
