Loved the first game. I still have my Max Payne mouse pad that came with it. Second one was alright. I don’t think I ever finished the third.

“Capitalism for All!”

“BOOOOOOOOOOOO”

“um…Capitalism for some…MINI BOLIVIA FLAGS FOR EVERYONE ELSE!”

“YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!”

you hit the nail on the head. Americans believe the book still works. you can go in various threads be it on lemmy, piefed, reddit, etc and still the rhetoric “remember people, vote them out in the midterms!” is still being posted. Meanwhile a Democratic Rep from Arizona who DID win is STILL waiting to be sworn in. So the Republican Party/Current Dictatorship is clearly showing the American people that voting doesn’t matter. that they can simply block people who did win via votes from doing their jobs. Americans still don’t understand that. They still firmly believe that they’ll win the midterms by a landslide but…what then? the republican party can simply and president can simply say “nah, we’re good” and just stay in power. whose to stop them? and the current administration is hedging on that bet.

I’m not an American but I can kinda understand why. Gotta tow that line. A good chunk of Americans are on the verge of homelessness and all their healthcare is tied directly to their employment. So rioting, looting grocery stores, etc runs a risk of not only being arrested or killed but also losing their jobs and thus losing their healthcare. The US Government has done a brilliant job over the decades of establishing a system preventing people from revolting.

Now one can argue that other countries would revolt and they’d also lose said things mentioned above because how can you get healthcare if you’re actively fighting the system that provides it? But Americans don’t know that. They’ve been conditioned to, again, tow the line.

Add to the fact there’s zero leadership for said revolt. Literally none. This isn’t like Black Lives Matter where there was an organization rallying everyone. I mean the proof is in the pudding just look at the No Kings protests. when do those happen? on the weekend, on a Saturday, when the vast majority are off work.

Now if those protests happened at 11am on a Tuesday I’d be impressed, but as it stands right now? that ain’t happening any time soon. They need leadership, they have none.

just upgraded my instance. pretty good, very smooth and yay animated profile avatars!

no, they’re not.

ugh I know. In hindsight I would have never bought it.

ugh I wish I could but my Laptop set up says “no, you can’t.” discrete Nividia GPU with onboard AMD GPU and gaming on x11 is a no go for me. So my only choice is wayland :/

there’s many forks that have the stuff turned off by default like Librewolf and Floorp

I personally use Qutebrowser. there’s many better options than straight up Firefox.

I wish Layton was still alive…

I mean what choice did we have? we didn’t. It was either a conservative in a liberal furry suit, A wanna-be apple munching trump, or a guy that has never had an original thought pass through his head.

We were fucked. we realized we were fucked. And we decided the fake liberal was the way to go. Canadian politics are so fucked our choices are conservative, ultra conservative, or a weak wannabe democrat party.

oh and don’t forget they also want to give $1billion to AI development over the next 5 years.

right so you just keep your music folder open so people can do just that. More audiophiles are going to be on soulseek than some random torrent tracker.

I don’t understand why you insist on torrenting when you can’t safely do so. You’re going to get way more traction sharing your rare stuff on soulseek than you will torrenting it I can guarantee that.

I…I don’t understand. Why would you use Bazzite for software development and not gaming when user is not a gamer but just likes KDE?

you can literally put KDE on anything. Bazzite isn’t friendly to installing anything that isn’t a flatpak or whatever.

Just use a different distro. you don’t need Bazzite. Switch them to like Fedora KDE or something.

And to people in this thread trying to push a camel through a pin hole…why? you’re talking about setting up VMs and Distroboxs or just using flatpaks on Bazzite when the most painless solution is to just switch distros.

You picked the wrong distro, just switch them to something more appropriate for what they want to do.

Am I crazy or didn’t they announce this a few years ago? I could have sworn watching a tease for a KOTR remake on like the game awards or something.

I don’t understand what exactly this is as it doesn’t go into great detail especially the whole “flavors” thing. There’s Ember, Social, Community, and Corporation so what’s the difference between each. in the documentation for installation it tells you to pick a flavor but again doesn’t describe what each “flavor” actually is.

So is this like meetup or some kind of neighborhood app/social group thing? I’d be willing to set up an instance on my server of it today but I don’t even know what this really is.

I have used fedi.video and add/follow various instances I find to mine but I’m not sure if I don’t have my peertube configured correctly or what but it’s not pulling up anything decent.

yeah man do it. I’m making money hand over fist cleaning up AI slop, sure I’d love to have more clients in Toronto that need to dig themselves out of the LLM mess they made. get that government money that will eventually go into my pocket.

I’d rather that billion go towards housing though. But hey if they want to throw away a billion dollars over 5 years I’m more than happy to take a little bit of it off their hands.

Protip: If you’re a developer and you’re struggling to find work, bone up on your code review and freelance yourself to companies to clean up AI slop, been doing that for over the past year and I’m making more money than I ever did when I was just a regular web/software dev.

it’s my default browser. It’s good and very impressive considering it’s essentially one dude working on it.
