Some games with Kernel Level Anticheat do work on Linux, because the KLA doesn’t actually check if it has access. Drag can imagine that the next generation technology of Linux gaming will be add-ons to WINE that lie to KLAs and tell them they have access. Like how yt-dlp lies to youtube and says it’s a browser.

Corporations will claim using these programs violates terms of service and is grounds for a ban. Players will respond to the bans by submitting refund requests for games they got banned from. And if we’re lucky, Valve will respond to the refund requests by demanding corporations support Linux in some form, whether it be removing the KLA or making it work on Linux.

Sounds to drag like people are using r/popular wrong

Can the AI bubble please suck up all the housing investment?

Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Still doesn’t explain how superpositions can collapse from interaction. Drag doesn’t believe it, drag thinks they stay in superposition and whatever interacted with them is also in superposition now.

Hey, autistic people!

You pour water over your toothpaste in order to soften it so it’ll turn into a liquid easier. If your toothpaste is always too solid and goopy it’s because you aren’t wetting it.

One of the games that was removed was a horror game about a stalker, which was made to raise awareness of sexual violence. Is that a rape game?

Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a great point

This is great!

Drag thinks we should expose kids to a safe environment most of the time, and to little bits of predatory design in contexts that make them easy to identify. Like a vaccine.

“Dad, how do I put armour on my horse?”
“You need to grow up and get a job and a credit card for that.”
“That sucks, I hate Oblivion! I want to go back to Morrowind!”
“It’s okay buddy, I pirated the Oblivion remaster. Let’s play that instead.”

Sounds like something someone who had friends growing up would say

Even if self driving cars kill less people, they’ll still destroy our quality of life.

Does Piefed have any good frontends yet?

With nvidia

What about Debian’s inability to run Proton 10?

Sony has to make a Spiderman movie every few years even though DVDs of the old ones are still being sold, but Ubisoft can just delete games forever and they can never be played again.

Copyright was invented so artists would be able to sell their art, and more art would be made.

When copyright is protected on a product that’s no longer sold, less art is made.

When a copyright holder stops selling their art, copyright protections should immediately cease, and they should be responsible for copyright obligations - releasing the source code to the public. Use it or lose it!

Drag thinks the economy would get more like that if the average person worked less like they did back then.

But making the workers think it would be cool is the first step to getting them to die for it.
