I get that the official Arch forums are a cesspool, but outside of that I see about a thousand times more people complaining about Arch users than I do actual toxic Arch users. It’s getting kinda tedious and unfunny at this point.

My source is the obvious sarcasm.

People who work together can’t really do democracy. The only true democracy is the one where a small number of people order everyone around without the input of most people. Because that’s what democracy means.

Huh, yeah, you’re right. I missed that the first time, but it’s how the computers are networked, not the OS.

No. That’s not what I said. I said the manufacturers not testing their equipment on Linux made it so, and more users would change that. Actually, looking at it again that isn’t even true. This example has nothing to do with the operating system at all. It’s caused by connecting with a computer on a different subnet (or I guess more accurately the same subnet as the printer), which would have happened even if the OS were Windows.

Honestly, this is a pretty good example of why this isn’t an inherent Linux problem. It’s a problem of using any OS that isn’t popular enough to be supported by manufacturers. More people using Linux would cause problems like this to stop happening.

I realize that’s a distinction without a difference to a lot of people, and that’s totally okay. I’m not saying that’s wrong, but it matters to me that the benefits of Linux are specific to the OS, while most of the problems are not.

Nobody here is saying that ads are good. We’re saying this disingenuous fascist is only saying these things because he can’t make any money from ads. If he was making ad money he’d be saying exactly the opposite of all this. Fascists don’t have any morals but power for power’s sake. That’s what fascism IS.

At this point I’m starting to think that if you want to subsidize semiconductor manufacturing in the US the Global Foundries might be a better investment. At least they’ve already hit rock bottom.

People discriminate against each other for all kinds of stupid reasons. Yeah, the word racism gets used for groups that aren’t actually genetic in nature sometimes. Let’s not be pedantic about the terminology used to describe discrimination against groups that have been the victims of genocide though.

Pfft. The idea that Kamala Harris wouldn’t have voted the same way as Biden on Iraq and Afganistan if she had been in Congress back in 2001 is so naive that I can’t even take anything else you said seriously. That is hilarious.

I have been called many things throughout my life. Some of them were even good. Classy has never once been one of them.

Well, what else do you want me to say? Do you want me to just type out the same response over and over? What do you even want out of me?

You could have read my response to the other person who told me the same thing before spamming me, you know.

Oh god, I had somehow blocked Bloomberg and Tulsi Gabbard out of my brain. Yeah, that was a pretty big oversight on my part. And yeah, I wasn’t counting the other people who dropped out before the primaries got started, which is kind of unfair. Fine. She’s just a Democrat that’s slightly more conservative than Biden. Are you happy now?

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I meant the only Democratic candidate in the 2020 primaries that was more conservative than Biden. I agree they’re both very mainstream middle of the road liberals. That was me not being careful with my language.

I mean, I’m not in love with the ex-cop who was chosen to be VP because she was the only Democrat more conservative than Biden, but this has more to do with Trump’s ideological inconsistency than Kamala Harris’s.

They’ve gone straight from crypto to AI. Technically there will be lots of them, but gamers won’t see any.

Does it matter? They’ll probably cost $3,000 and they’ll sell, like, 5 of them.

Video game journalism has always just been third party PR, but journalists almost all absolutely love Fromsoft games. It’s user reviews that complain about them being too hard.

Of course, by “call out” they mean sort of vaguely point out that they exist without actually saying anything meaningful, and that will still somehow be too political for the “gamers”.
