You want to do what with two lost pigs?

Fascinating! I don’t know all this. Thanks

I mean. Elon Musk is exerting control of the platform too. Do you really want THAT shit in your cereal?

‘Pressured’? I hate these types of ‘highlighting’ in titles.

SIEMENS is honestly a piece of shit. So is Broadcom though. But man. Siemens are real pricks.

Dang I was close-ish. Fixed

Suomessa, tiedämme muutamia asioita Molotovin cocktaileista. ;)

Uhm excuse me. If you can walk and carry groceries, clearly you are well 👏 enough 👏 to work 👏. I’m waiting on those TPS* reports tetris11!

Them probably.

You make fair points. I shouldn’t jest so carelessly. I don’t think it’s just Obama either though. Past administrations have all had hands toward what we have today.

That said; I do think you’re right really. Which also kinda makes me sad. I wish we had some real leadership, and actually hope 😅

We end up with a remixed reality of ‘King Ralph’ instead. Every day with Trump is eating away at whatever hope for some kind of check and balance to occur. It’s disheartening to feel so powerless in the face of such a FUBAR-POTUS clown show in the chainsaw wielding circus.

Anyway! Back to masking it 🎭

Wow. This guy hates Obama lol.

I also don’t trust these. There is very little regulation and protection. Case in point.

I could potentially build a system with 2 GPU. That would be amazing. Isn’t there like a hypervisor OS, where I could just run whatever whenever and attach whatever hardware to whichever? Then jump into that machine and use it ‘natively’? Or am I dreaming/overcomplicating? 😆

Also to be fair, I’m not ‘new’ to Linux. I feel comfortable enough there to get by. It’s more when I dig into drivers and what softwares/tools to use, everyone argues about which is better and it’s hard to sometimes know just what works.

Thinking of Switching to Linux for Gaming — But Have Some Concerns

I’ve been a lifelong Windows user—mostly because of gaming compatibility and its dominance in enterprise environments. But lately, I’ve been tempted to switch to Linux full-time. I already like Debian and use it occasionally, but Windows has always been my main rig.

If I were to actually switch to Linux for gaming, what distro would you recommend? • I don’t want something too “kid-friendly” or overly simplified (like Zorin or Ubuntu with heavy theming). • At the same time, Arch feels like too much—I want some control and tweakability, but not a full-time job maintaining my system. • I have an RTX 2070 Super, so I’d really prefer a distro that won’t make me fight with drivers or GPU support constantly. • I’ve heard about Proton and Pop!_OS—are those still good options in 2025?

One sticking point: Photoshop.

I actually use and pay for Adobe software (not just for fun), so Wine and alternatives like GIMP don’t really cut it. I’ve even considered switching to macOS instead, just to have Unix-like tools and full Adobe support… but then I lose a big chunk of gaming compatibility.

So yeah… I’m stuck. I want a distro that makes gaming easy-ish, still lets me tweak and feel like I’m on a “real” Linux system, and won’t leave me stranded when I need to run Adobe stuff.

Any recommendations or thoughts?

I started using and paying for Kagi. Fuck Google and Microsoft.

I’ve been using Plex many years. I abandoned it about 1-2 years ago when they began their enshittification journey. Now I see they are continuing to double down on being assholes.

They do not need any more resources to allow people to use what already exists. Most people run their own servers, and, they track all that by the way. Hence why people moved away from it.

Don’t give them your money. Let them rot. They fucked their user base who built them.

Yeah you echo my thoughts actually. That efficiency could be found in multiple areas, including deepseek. That perhaps too that some other political things may be a bit more uncertain.

Put it on Facebook! Ol’ Zuck decided all the guardrails pretty much needed to go so. Post and do whatever. Plus, the people who should see it most are those still hanging around on Facebook 🤣

Rules for thee and not for me, plus we PROFIT off of it to boot. But none of you guys can do that. Only for Richys.

Good, do Finland next and get the Swedish fingers out of that pot to boot.

I just dumped pcloud. Also a surprising increase in fake pcloud emails trying desperately for me to click them. My email provider flags them over real pcloud ones. Still. Someone is spamming the shit out of me for that. I’d say pcloud isn’t worth sticking with.

Edit: For clarity, I never trusted them. Anything I had there was protected with 2FA login and also I used Cryptomator. Still, I am not keeping anything there any longer.
