The money isnt the problem, its the want. Collectively we dont want to end world hunger. The countries experiencing hunger already have population growth rates higher than their infrastructure can sustain and handle. Pumping food into those countries would only worsen the problem.

Then you have the emissions growth at a time where emissions are already to high. Then the threat of migration. Ending world hunger is a meme that would cause more suffering than it would prevent.

If you are talking about lobbying They do

This is unpopular but I’d like to see LESS niche communities. I dont want to see 1000 game communities I want to see one game community where all the people are making threads about the games they like. When its big enough then that game can split into its own community.

Because i may not go out of my way to find a community like guild wars 1 but if I see a post about it in the games community I’d join in. The interest isnt always there it needs to be created sometimes. And it can be created by people seeing threads of interested people talking about their interest.

There are a few questions you need to answer that impact the specs.

What resolution will you be using for your monitor, 1080p or 2k or 4k. If you are 1080p gaming then you really do not need the latest and greatest.

Do you want to pay extra for a “future proofed” machine. I think buying future proof is a meme the stuff lasts so long especially on linux.

Do you want to pay extra for a smaller case and smaller parts.

What games do you want to play? Sim games require a decent CPU everything else you can get away with the lowest end CPU and its fine. 5500 5600 and 5600x are solid value AM4 cpus. If you have money for future proofing you can look at am5 CPUs.

For gpu ifyou are 2k or 4k gaming 9070XT is the best value card on the market right now.

For 1080p the 3060 or 3060it is a solid card at a solid price. Dont worry about nvidia compat its fine. It takes a single line pasted into the terminal to get the drivers and most distros have a GUI tool to get them if you dont want to do that.

As for distro it really doesnt matter, they all use mostly the same tools and software. Bazzite, fedora, Ubuntu are good places to start. If you want a “gaming” OS, cachyOS, nobara, pika have been optimised.

For specs that are important, if you need WiFi its nice to get a motherboard that has WiFi on it. Nvme ssd drive 1tb or 2tb is really nice.

Consider picking parts and building it yourself you will learn about how it goes together and fixing it will be much easier. You’ll also have a lot more freedom for customisation and part pricing. I had a friend who is not technical at all build a PC and he said it was quite easy he just followed a video from linus tech tips. Took a few hours.

What’s games are you looking at playing and what computer tasks? If its all fps then only GPU matters. If its sim games you’ll want a decent CPU.

On one hand I’m happy its dead because paradox deserves this. But on the other hand I spent $80 on this and I really thought it had the base to be an amazing game.

Nah i think its fine. Let the nerds test water for viruses.

Tarkov needs to stay alive to contain the worst of the community away from arc raiders.

Got to protect users from someone doing script assisted kick flips

The drama was so minor 99.99% no longer care

SteamOS 3 is arch based but that doesnt mean its anything like arch. It builds from a snapshot of arch and ships that to users as an immutable. So it will be extremely out of date compared to arch.

I enjoy this guys videos but he says “I wrote task manager” way to much. We get it bro you wrote task manager save some pussy for the rest of us.

It does nothing and has been broken for a long time. It can be used for hotkeys but there are none that I use. I only want it to open the start menu. Yes i know I can easily bind it in KDE plasma hotkey menu but i havent gotten around to it yet.

Sad, another project killed by Mozilla.

TVs are all 4k though. 1080p looks like shit on 4k screen.

Nah they have one for checking passwords in breaches. The only password manager they have is the one built into Firefox and thats great but i want one for my phone when i log into apps.

This is so sick. I wish the console was more powerful and didnt rely on fsr for 4k preformance. I’d love to get my hands on that vr headset.

I dont clear cookies but i run unlock. Accounts last a long time. Ive had one for a while because i spent my time on Lemmy these days. I dont comment on reddit much anymore. Just use it to view. Check your DMS you can habe the account.

If the VPN has a ton of bad traffic coming from it then you’ll get banned. Any free VPN will 100% get you cooked. But i can create an account on the paid proton VPN servers with no issues.

After a month I’ll stop being careful and use my home IP

Because after I got banned for something so minor I was pissed at reddit and kept I being rude to comments and posts that were shit.

You know how you see the same reddit opinion over and over and over even though its completely incorrect. Or see posts that are so obviously false or rule breaking. I’d just be rude as fuck in my reply tone, not breaking any rules but still would draw bans.

The ones I hated the most were am I the asshole posts where they clearly weren’t. Like “am I the asshole for being abused by my parents”. Same with firecape posters in the old school runescape subreddit.
