  • Guys, what you need to do to be competetive, to foster competition... is keep using all our products and services.

    Setting up a fund to get new people involved, to get some more money to existing software devs who work on comparable products and servicrs that could be expanded and improved?

    No no no, thats uh, that's anti-competetive, is what that is.

    Mhm.

    Yep.

  • ... I've never even heard of it.

    But I do love the old paper mario games!

    So wow, now we have a real life example of actual organic word of mouth spread of a game, as opposed to just being a passive advertisement sponge!

  • Great news!

    They are!

    ... Just typically not the overproduced and overpriced corpo ones.

    Wanna drive down AAA game prices?

    Stop paying them!

    Support your favorite indie or AA game today!

    Don't like games with predatory microtransactions?

    You'll never believe this, but you can also just stop playing games with them!

    Get all your friends onboard with the plan, fight the man!

  • SHOT THROUGH THE HEART!

    ... and you're to blame...

    Darling, you give love...

    A BAD NAME!

  • Wow, they're seriously saying this with a straight face, huh?

    Oh hi Google, my name is Epic Games, and I see your recently trained a new 'AI' of yours on Fortnite.

    Let me introduce you to my friend Fromsoft, who is pretty sure you uh, copied their notes from Dark Souls as well.

    ... How are all these people this fucking stupid?

    There's no possible resolution to the paradigm of 'I can steal everything but you can't steal anything' other than total chaos.

    Total chaos ain't a good standard for a legal system trying to figure out IP law.

    This is completely ludicrous.

  • ... at the height of their arrogance, the climax of their hubris, they decided that their own spaghetti was so substantial, so impressive, of such bulk, they confused it for divinity; they believed that it could organize and improve itself.

    Such was the nature and extent of MicroSlop's trangressions against the very nature of noodles, against those ancient ones who wove together the very fibers of reality itself.

  • Yeah this is basically:

    I failed at running a business, so now I am a contractable advisor / lobbyist.

    You'd actually have to be a moron to use such a contractor, but its actually pretty common, because nepotism is more important than competence or innovation in America.

  • I'm not annoyed that you don't love linux, I'm annoyed that you don't understand what words mean and think you have a higher level of relevant experience than you actually do, that you are going out of your way to feel insulted.

    It points toward you being the kind of entitled and emotionally unstable person that people who actually are experienced with linux tend to have PTSD from consistently dealing with.

    And your subsequent comment I am here replying to confirms it.

    I didn't tell you to not be an idiot, I didn't call you dumb, I gave you the blueprint of a way to become a more experienced linux user, or a functional alternative to that.

    Nobody in this thread called you dumb or an idiot, unless I somehow have someone who replied to you already blocked for some reason.

    Your ego is too large, that is why 'linux people' don't like you; you're the arrogant entitled asshole who is unwilling to either learn or accept your own limitations.

    Normally, in IT departments, acting the way you've acted would get you flagged or categorized as a more hostile or combatative client... here on lemmy, nobody is being paid to deal with your ego.

  • Uh... I mean, kind of? Not really?

    Bazzite makes significant use of Proton, which yes Valve primarily funds, though... probably more to the tune of millions to tens of millions, over its entire history so far, not... billions...

    But as I said, its... mostly Fedora, with a good deal of prepackaged tweaks and prebuilt flatpaks and other systems they either manage or contribute to as a kind of functional ecosystem.

    Fedora != Valve.

    Anyway, I daily drive Bazzite.

    I probably can help you, I've managed to fuck and unfuck myself by breaking and then fixing Bazzite more than once, by doing things they say you probably shouldn't do, and then using their provided wiki/tools/macros to fix things... and they've refined and improved their rollback command macros and such over the years.

    But, you don't want to be helped, you want to complain, so, best of luck with that.

  • Either that or IR still blows out the range of a lot of cheaper/older cameras, or at least would have much of your face rendered as basically a white or black blob/bloom, so long as the emmiter is at the right angle/distance/strength relative to the camera.

    But... there are a hell of a lot of different cameras, some of them do basically negate or otherwise filter or adjust for this... no clue how generally prevalent those kinds of cameras are these days, if the meta face stealer goggles will have them or not.

  • ... Valve does not directly maintain or update or publish Bazzite.

    Bazzite is an atomic version of Fedora, made by basically the Bazzite team... SteamOS, which is actually developed by Valve, is basically an atomic version of Arch.

    Are you using Bazzite, or SteamOS?

    Also: Display doesn't work if I turn off the display.

    ... what?

    You... would you expect a thing to work if you turned it off?

    Now, bluetooth not working on your mobo could be a legitimate driver compatibility issue, and it also sounds like you're having similar weirdness with your audio drivers.

    What is your actual OS?

    What is your actual mobo?

  • OP topic is about Bazzite.

    Posts comment about how entirely different Linux distro has some problems.

    Thinks 'if you download a .exe and click next a few times, it usually works'.

    Has no idea what a flatpak is or how they work.

    Interperets being called a beginner at linux and being told said entirely different linux distro is not for beginners as being called dumb.

    ... sigh.

    Yeah, you are at beginner at linux.

    Your experience with Windows as an OS is almost entirely irrelevant to any ability you may or may not have with linux.

    Maybe either keep sticking with distros oriented toward beginners at linux, or, learn more about and become more experienced with linux, so you can use distros that are not targetted at beginners, where more advanced users are assumed to be capable of doing some of their own investigation and problem solving.

    As an example:

    ... why didn't the intial btrfs attempt at setting up cachyOS work?

    If you were a more advanced linux user, you might have actually noted a specific error that was thrown out, been able to do some research into why that error got thrown, where the problem stems from, what the state of the filesystem was prior to attempting and failing to format it, what part of the formatting process failed, whether or not some hardware incompatibility or error was part of the problem, etc.

    If that all sounds too complicated or like gobbledygoop... you are a beginner at linux.

    The vast majority of Arch based distros are basically experimental, as in, you should expect them to break and often not work properly, for one reason or another.

  • ... not everyone regularly consumes as much fiber as a 'greenbeanmachine', lol.

  • I suggest we also add a baseball bat, moving at around 25 mph, directly to the nose bridge area of the device.

  • I did try and explain how to avoid potential infections in an edit... before any insertions, make sure the involved areas, and a certain radius around them are thoroughly cleaned off of any uh, food product.

    Like, clean up the whole area around people's thighs and groin before you go 'in' to anything, for the gal, probably just don't ever get any food product too directly close to where it could end up inside anywhere that has its own kind of sensitive self-regulating environment.

    Sort of like with 'never go ass to mouth'... either eat the gal out before food stuffs get into your mouths, or, have the other party just actually brush their teeth.

    We had a number of disposable and non disposable towels and such on hand, beyond uh, orally prepping each other. Along with the pre prep of shower curtains, we put all our clothes into an unused garbage bag before we started... we realized that we'd only be able to lie or stand on or press against things or surfaces that we'd pre setup a shower curtain over, otherwise we'd leave a vaguely human shaped pb&j blotch on it...

    ...we did a significant amount of preplanning to account for just how generally messy this likely would be.

    Then, the thorough shower afterward really is needed to get stuff off of the rest of your bodies, totally out of each other's hair and such. You... kind of actually do need both people present to help the other get their hair as clean as possible, as gently as possible. If somebody has longer hair, probably tie it into a bun or ponytail or something, do your best not to intentionally palm or grab it.

    Now, I cannot with any confidence speak to how well this kind of procedure would like... generally work with other people following it, repeating 10s or 100s of instances of it.

    YMMV, there may be factors I am not remembering or considering that could be relevant.

    Like obviously we both did not have any STDs, had been fairly recently screened, weren't fucking anybody else in the interim.

    Also, though I don't think either of us knew it at the time... pretty sure we're both autistic, hence the... mutual attention to details and contingency planning.

    But anyway, I can say that the one time that we did this, nobody had any kind of infection afterward, yeast or otherwise.


    As to Ratatat?

    Perks of being a hipster, I guess, lol?

    ... I suppose you could say its a matter of taste.

    This isn't even from the latest drop, this is old news, this was in an earlier release.
