I’m one. As a Mac user, I haven’t used windows in years, and avoid it like the plague. But, the limited games support meant I had to rely on consoles to get my gaming fix. With Steam’s strong support for Linux, I decided to build a gaming PC for Linux only. It’s been great. I just wish more publishers would support it — the ones adding kernel-level anti-cheat are ruining things, but I’m hoping if enough people switch to Linux, they won’t be able to ignore us.

No, I haven’t tried, but looked it up and see it doesn’t work.

I play GTA V on my steam deck

Beware the diterpenes

Maybe you should start a No Politics campaign. Have some debates over the issue. Raise it with your leaders. Find out the impacts of the new policy. Get all of Lemmy to have a vote on it.

Listen to the episode from last week “why cynicism is bad for you” … you’re on to something with your post here that is covered a lot in the episode.

Do you listen to The Grey Area?

I just built my first gaming PC, which is the first gaming rig I’ve owned in 20 years. I did so because I could install all the games I wanted to play on Linux. I haven’t installed Windows and do not plan to.

If men had mistresses, the “old lady” was their wife, but their concubines were young ones

Here is another:

Human beings may not be perfect, but a computer program with language synthesis is hardly the answer to the world’s problems.

Someone on here posted the dialogue from a conversation with an NSF “terrorist” from the game and I initially thought it was a pretty reasonable assessment of modern society and its problems. It was only when I read the comments that someone pointed out that the post was quoted verbatim from the game. Need to see if I can find that post…

I’ve been in companies that use Teams and companies that use Slack. The difference was people actually used Slack outside their core team channels. Teams was nearly a ghost town in the wider organization. I felt that was solid evidence that people only used Teams because they had to. They also had to use Slack, but they also kind of liked it.

Have you used Skype for Business? That was atrocious.

Also, people were very influenced by religion and superstition. They may have interpreted mummified bodies as some connection to gods/goddesses. They in turn took up mummification based on this understanding, not because it seemed cool.

Love it when my coworkers reformat the code style, making it nigh impossible to understand what they actually changed, while greatly inflating their “contribution.”

It also blows away the git blame, making it hard to know who actually changed that one critical line of business logic 3 years ago that you need to understand before trying to fix some obscure bug.

I have one coworker who does this constantly and if you just looked at git blame, you’d think he wrote the entire code base himself.

lololol

I also dropped them after the acquisition

Why aren’t the booleans like “facts” or “no cap” for true and cap for “false”?

Also, you could have exceptions be called “Sus”

I would play it if I could get it on Steam for my Steam Deck

Apparently all roulette wheels have some imperfections and the older the wheel the more pronounced the imperfections become. In other words, these imperfections tend to lead to the ball landing in the same places over and over again. I read an article about a group of gamblers that studied particular roulette wheels, analyzed their flaws, and then made a series of bets, winning big. But, this would tend to attract attention, so they never really played the same wheel more than once.
