I mean they could add a diff thing, like how AUR helpers do it. It’s not much, but it’s something.

Not really true. You don’t necessarily need open source drivers for Linux to play well. There was actually a period where NVidia was the better option on Linux because their proprietary drivers were better than the alternatives. If the company cares to manage those drivers they will work well. That said, it looks like AMD has embraced FOSS and NVidia finally opened their other drivers, so things are looking up at least. Having binary blobs for certain shit is not ideal either, but I’ll take it if it means more people will move to Linux and everything else will still be open.

Played through most of the System Shock remake, currently playing through Deus Ex (the original).

Pretty much this. Got one for my girlfriend, and I’ve ended up playing games a lot on the couch next to her instead.

Also, strangely I’ve found it easier to play certain games this way - it feels like less of a commitment when you just power on the deck with the TV on in the background. As opposed to like, sitting down and being like ‘I’m going to play this game.’

Idk, on the one hand I could see the argument against organizations dodging the Red Hat fees by choosing free downstream, but then again, like, everything that RHEL does was always available? The reason you’d pay is for the support you’d get from them?

To be honest I never really understood why you’d specifically want something like CentOS over say, Debian - I mean, outside of I guess, .rpm packaging?

The Wagner group are accused of committing war crimes, including rape, torture, and robbery. If you need them to also be fascists in order to condemn them, or think that the fascism is the worst part about them, your moral framework is fucked.

Also, saying ‘Yeah, I’m glad there’s internal conflict happening in Russia because it’s showing that their war effort is falling apart, and raising the likelihood that Ukraine will come out victorious,’ is not the same thing as saying ‘Yes I love the Wagner group they are clearly the best.’

It’s good for Ukraine in the context of the war. You don’t have to approve of the group itself. Also, who cares if they’re fascist? They’re already bad enough just from their actions as a PMC group.
