  • Nothing about the AUR is more irresponsible than downloading random .exes off the internet (standard practice on windows). Fear mongering about it does everyone a disservice.

  • Look, I don’t know what your experience has been like, but honestly the issue you described sounds like a worrying hypothetical at worst. I simply have never run into any such issues, the AUR really does “Just Work” in 2025. I actually don’t think I’ve ever had trouble with it.

    On the other hand, when I was a newbie, trying to navigate getting access to newer packages on ubuntu so my games would actually run properly was miserable. PPAs (and similar systems) are 100x more confusing and annoying than the AUR has ever been.

    Please know I’m writing this in good faith. There are things that are unfamiliar and that require some adapting when switching to linux, but the issues you described sounds really aren’t among them.

  • Just don’t use mint then? Try something rolling release, far less trouble when doing modern things like games or professional software. EndeavourOS has a super slick installer and the gnome edition truly Just Works. I’m happy to help if anything comes up, I’m getting a bit tired of these takes about any remotely modern distro being spooky scary unstable or whatever. It’s fine, it’s just a computer.

  • Just got banned from the lemmy.ml world news for saying Mexico is a narco state and ignoring the subsequent dogpile of hexbear users

  • Quote source? I swear I’ve seen it before

  • Is this true? Can I see some high-tier xi-slop fat-salt-and-carbs treats?

  • I exhibited my passion project video game at a local con (~20k attendees) and got great feedback and got to see people have a fun time with my art c:

  • As a swede, yeah you’re so right

  • Serious question, asking in good faith here as a non-mandarin speaking westerner:

    If mainstream, policy-guiding economics is so overwhelmingly western (neoclassical), why is China on such a wildly different economic trajectory compared to the contradictory hellscape of the west? Is it the applications of these horribly unmarxist economics? Is it the remnants of mao-era policies? I’m very ignorant on this, but i’d love to learn more

  • “…shy guys (Jews)” is fucking sending me. What an absolute all-timer of a sentence
