Nah I was doing some virtualization troubleshooting and had to make some changes to grub. Luckily I had backups, but as a serial tinkerer I break stuff pretty often. Also fucked up my fstab when trying to automount drives, though that was an easy fix. I never claimed to be a clever man
It breaks my heart that Worm never got more attention. It's probably the best superhero (or villain depending on your perspective) story I've ever read
If you actually read the article, seizing eggs at the border is an attempt to curb the spread of bird flue. It's decently common to make moving certain foods across borders illegal due to disease concerns
The only thing really preinstalled is basic stuff like desktop environments and a few tools to help with updates and manage the system (eos-update, etc). Even almost all the package repositories are the ones maintained by arch.
I guess this could also be based on the distro you use as well as your graphics card. For me, I use EndeavourOS, which is very close to base arch, so I had to do some extra setup to get proton working on it. For some reason, Proton refused to work on the Arch repo's Steam package, so I had to use the flatpak version instead
To be fair there still is a lot of tinkering involved to get gaming on Linux working properly (unless you're on the steamdeck, but even them you'll have to tinker for anything that's not verified). Switching proton runners, changing launch options, fighting updates. It's definitely more than most people are willing to deal with. For me personally, I've had to stop updating my video drivers because Nvidia 555 causes all Proton games to crash for me.
I enjoy the experience of tinkering and troubleshooting, so I'm okay with all that, but I completely understand why most people wouldn't want to use Linux for gaming.
Wouldn't this dude be 15-16 at the time of those posts? That's a lot of time for a young person to change their views. I know I basically did a 180 from conservative to leftist in that time frame.
I'm not trying to say he wasn't right-wing, but using what someone posted when they were in high school as evidence for political motivation 4-5 years later seems flawed to me
Just run the LLM locally with open-webui and you can tweak the system prompt to ignore all the censorship
