Sadly phone scams are the 3rd most profitable bussinesses in the world. They aren’t going anywhere we give up having a phone or our phone carriers do their fucking job on actual scam prevention

- Comment on DoorDashers are getting paid to close Waymo's self-driving car doors 2 weeks ago:
And yet things like robovaccums have. The sawblade has to detect the right material. Meanwhile Robot vaccums just have to detect anything in its path to then stop. And it has a bumper. And ring cameras can detect motion. As well as dashboard cameras. Dont see why any of this technology cannot be used in car doors just to detect anything in it’s path.

I’m not sure why anyone in EU or therefore canada should care what am American company opinion would be at this point. They said they were moving on. They did.
- Comment on Games you fell out of love with. 2 weeks ago:
Almost anything i found had a chore based quest with shit loot after finishing a campaign.
Eg: destiny2 and dying light2 DL2 was a great campaign and fun mechnics while i enjoyed some of the quests after until i ran into the sprint ones and then it kept force finjecting this feature to compete with the person you’re finishing the quest with which just felt gross and overall detracted from the drama and fantasy like it was trying to inject a mario cart feature that was misplaced.

But they built in a saw blade killswitch if a finger is detected a good decade ago or more. Surely they can apply such technology to cars.

- Comment on I am looking for a Linux OS 3 weeks ago:
It is fedora. Just a fedora install with some preticked boxes. That said there’s some differences to note such as nobara doesnt come with selinux like fedora desktop does. It uses apparmor. Which you won’t bump into an issue with until you install certain softwares. I think if you’re just gaming it won’t matter
- Comment on I am looking for a Linux OS 3 weeks ago:
Should be fine for the most part on any distribution. Just install lutris, heroic, steam. Wine and wine tricks and proton as your emulator.(glorious egg roll or latest is pretty stable)
The only games I’ve had issues with so far have been an old game from bungee and maybe a few old ones from Ubisoft

Na that’s ok. I’m happy now with Linux. I’ve adapted. And now I’m thriving. Game surveys will be happily filled out to up that statistic of Linux use. Windows can take a miserable dive off a cliff while riddled with Russian STDs.
