  Hopefully not soon, but probably once Gabe is gone if i had to guess.

  If steam goes public, might as well start packing the bug out bag because shit is going to go south real quick.

  Definitely recommend brother. No fuss, just works.

  Even the proprietary drivers blow chunks. Sure, gaming performance is fine, but desktop feel is just so awful compared to AMD wayland it isn’t even funny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Personality-driven' influencer esports league revealed, immediately implodes over NFT controversy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It just feels wrong, and I can’t quite explain why.

  It’s essentially throwing a slab of meat into an arena and watching the starved poors fight to the death over it, then watching while you’re served the equivalent of thanksgiving dinner by your butler/maids in a safe climate controlled room.

  There comes a point where “philanthropy” simply becomes rich people making games for the poors to win a “prize” and seeing how they react for their own entertainment. The lambo example seems pretty much spot on for that.

  And this is why you don’t want cloud based password storage systems. If you want to use a password manager, use something entirely local like KeePassXC. The database it creates is so small you could fit it on a floppy so it’s immensely portable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Kids Online Safety Act is Still A Huge Danger to Our Rights Online.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing. Policy makers are just using their “think of the children” defense to constantly push more and more overreaching policy.

  And they won’t stop there either. You bet your ass it’ll be extended again once more corporations start hitting those public domain limitations on works they care about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung Announces 256TB SSDs and Unveils Peta-Byte Scale PBSSDs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  For real. It’s like SSD manufacturers are in cahoots with HDD manufacturers to never step on their turf(capacity.)

  SSD manufacs keep chasing useless metrics like sequential write speed in consumer drives, when if they just chased capacity they could kill HDDs forever and we’d all be better off for it. Then again, i guess they’d also lose revenue since they don’t nearly die as much as HDDs, so i guess there’s that.

  Or…they could keep with their current trend but actually focus on metrics that matter. Like lower que depth operations which actually make an operating system feel amazing to use like Q1T1.

  I’m convinced many of them fail you on purpose so they do multiples of them. Increasing the amount of training per user.

  My favorites are the ones i used to get on dread, jesus christ i’ve never sworn so much trying to do something so simple, it was ridiculous.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MMO mouse recommendations?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Logitech G600 here, used razer in the past and their build quality is awful. Expect left click to start double clicking within 2-6 months of light to moderate use on those.

  No complaints with the G600 on either windows or linux, use piper to assign keys on linx.
