  • Fucking hope this site is in no way representative of the voting population, because Jesus Christ.

    That, or all the “I’m totally a progressive that suddenly learned about Gaza last week and refuse to vote for Biden because of it” astroturfing is shifting their gears to Harris.

    They were looking for a new unified attack vector, and then she went and said this and they realized they could just keep doing the same old tired shit.

    Reminder: if you give a single shit about Palestine or the people who live there, you will do everything you can to prevent Trump and down ballot Republicans from winning. At all costs.

    If you can’t see the forest for the trees, you’re gonna find out real quick what happens in Gaza when Trump wins. Assuming you actually give a shit about those people and aren’t just using them as political pawns to try to change the sentiment regarding Kamala Harris.



  • Dude, same. I cannot understand it (for games. I’m sure people have valid reasons if they’re using the Deck for some other purpose). It seems there is a cohort of otherwise relatively tech savvy people who are just terrified of all things “Linux.”

    Maybe they heard horror stories from friends or family while growing up and aren’t aware of just how close to complete compatibility Proton is. In fact, in some cases, it can somehow run games better than if one were to dual boot and install in Windows.

    Even Valve’s own Steam Deck verification should be taken with a grain of salt, it seems as though they’re being extra conservative with those. I’ve gotten several "unsupported " games working (very easily), for example , Dark Souls: Prepare to Die edition is listed on Steam as “unsupported,” but it works great (with DSFix even) on my Deck.

    ProtonDB is a far better resource for anyone reading this who hadn’t heard of it.

    But yeah, it’s almost like this subconscious aversion to Linux. And they want to be in their comfort zone I guess.
