I may have won the George Game, but in doing so I lost the Game. Now I know how Pyrrhus felt.
- Comment on Darwin was a real one. 3 weeks ago:
I was actually making a joke about the hydrotherapy he used to treat his condition. It involved getting doused with 900 liters of cold water. I don’t think anyone caught my joke.

He sounds like he needs to take a cold shower.
- Comment on You won: Microsoft is walking back Windows 11’s AI overload — scaling down Copilot and rethinking Recall in a major shift 4 weeks ago:
I can’t say I’ve had those issues myself, so my recommendation may not be valid in your case. I’d say maybe give Fedora with KDE Plasma a try, and try switching between X11 and Wayland sessions if issues persist.
I personally don’t like Ubuntu, but that’s mostly because of Canonical making the occasional sketchy decision.
On the whole, distro choice doesn’t matter quite as much these days, as most distros should work fine out of the box. Whatever issues you have should technically be solvable with a bit of troubleshooting.
Sometimes Linux just doesn’t play well with your setup. Good luck, and I hope you find something that works for you!

Won? They will do it again. The only winning move is not to play their game. Choose Free Software.

There’s this neat life hack where you drink enough and forget all about the taste - and most of the previous night, to boot!
I don’t actually drink though, tastes like shit.

Just to clarify, Bandai Namco has published some games on GOG. No RPGs though.

- Comment on Speed test pits six generations of Windows against each other — Windows 11 placed dead last across most benchmarks, 8.1 emerges as unexpected winner in this unscientific comparison 2 months ago:
I basically jumped from XP to 8.1 and I was amazed how much of an improvement 8.1 was on a technical level. Yes, the UI was horrendous, and any usability expert should have been able to tell you it was a terrible idea, but apparently they weren’t listened to. Luckily there was Classic Shell that restored a proper Start Menu, so I never had to use the horrible touch interface.
8.1 was the last good Windows (with caveats). When support ended I went back to Linux, because 10 and 11 are enshittified to all hell.
- Comment on GOG is getting acquired by its original co-founder: What it means for you 2 months ago:
Backup. If you lose your Internet connection or GOG goes tits up, you don’t lose access to your installers.

Per Michal Kicinski on the GOG forums:
Please also be assured that financially GOG is very stable, and I personally have a quite extensive financial safety net in case of any needs. So while GOG is no longer part of a very big corporation (which actually has some pros too ;-)), it is very safe financially. There is really no need to back up your collections. If such a disaster would ever even theoretically happen, you would be clearly informed well in advance — but honestly, I cannot see any realistic scenario where this kind of danger would appear.
- Comment on GOG is getting acquired by its original co-founder: What it means for you 2 months ago:
Not sure what this will mean in the long run, but my immediate reaction is positive. GOG has had taken steps towards enshittification, and if Michał can put it back on track, well, that’s great. We’ll have to watch and wait.
DRM free, forever.

- Comment on LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites Backlash 2 months ago:
Stallman outlined our choices and told us this is where we were headed back in the 1980’s. Since then, we have consistently made the wrong decisions. All is not lost, but the situation is dire.
- Comment on LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites Backlash 2 months ago:
You must understand: It’s not your TV, it’s LG’s, and they will do with it what ever they want, and not to your benefit. This is the future we chose.

I generally have nothing but a deep sense of loathing for marketing, but I genuinely feel bad for the people who have to try smearing lipstick on this pig.
