And you make her being trans an avenue of attack, so you’re a transphobe. Same as if you’d call a black person you don’t like the n-word.

first they came for palestinians, but you symbolically put a cross on a ballot that didn’t help them either but fucked over a whole lot of other people as well. good job. hope you’re proud advocating for genocide. I’m just blocking your whole instance. it’s just so hopeless to argue with a bunch of people that don’t care for women, queer people, any minority except for the currently popular minority to defend. y’all didn’t have an option for helping gaza on the ballot but still just threw your vote away. stick it to them murica fuck yeah… fuck you

You forgot the 3rd same picture titled queer communities under trump but you don’t care about that

That last paragraph is exactly what i feel. In Windows it started to feel more and more like I’m fighting against Microsoft and have to be on edge all the time whereas if in Linux something doesn’t work it’s not because of ill intentions of the people behind the OS.

Just an fyi but blob already stands for binary large object

Ok to make some thing clear because you seem to misunderstand a lot of things. I’m not from the US, I vote greens in my country and despise the liberals of your and my country. When i put quotes around against genocide I do so because as I explain in the whole thing it’s in effect not against genocide as it’s not stopping it plus adding a genocide in your own population. I don’t put the quotes around genocide without the word against because a genocide it is. You are so caught up in your whole spiel that you’ve built a boogeyman you assume me to be without actually reading the text which is already clear when you take my introductory sentence and complain that I’ve not provided the logic before the introduction. When my logic sends like standard laser evil tropes then that’s because it is. I detailed the logic without buzzwords because so many people stop thinking about the why the moment they hear them. And you don’t need more than lesser evil because lesser evil is all you have in your shithole of an electory system. You have no option to actually bring a 3rd party into power. Maybe I’ll get to your other points when I’m actually awake and not lying in bed with a fever but probably not

Well sorry but that’s not how logic works

Our givens are:

• Trump or Harris will win the White House
• There is a 3rd party further left (supposedly because she declared her goal as having Harris not win the White House even though she can’t win herself so her goal is effectively to help Trump) that is against the genocide that will not win the White House

=> Harris is left of Trump (if only slightly in most points)

=> The people jumping to a 3rd party that is further left than Harris are only ex Dems.

=> Dems weaken while GOP is not weakening

=> Trump gets more likely voted into the White House the more people vote Green

=> Voting “against genocide” is causing the Party to win that makes Genocide most likely worse (fairly sure Trump said he wants to accelerate it) and will also Genocide its own population, starting by queers, immigrants and women

If you had a different voting system I’d agree with you that voting 3rd Party is the way to go but you don’t have a voting system where that is anything but a vote thrown away in blind idealism. So yes if you vote 3rd Party I will blame you for worsening an existing and adding another genocide.

Sorry for shoddy formatting I don’t quite know how to fix it.

Voting for 3rd party helps trump win which means even more genocide so “voting against genocide” is actually voting for more genocide

Jill Stein declared her goal as preventing Harris from winning the White House even though she knows she can’t win herself, so basically her goal is to put Trump in power who is going to continue or worsen the genocide in Gaza while adding genocide on the US’s queer population, women and immigrants and even descendants of immigrants that live there for multiple generations. As a little bonus he’s going to give Ukraine to Russia by not delivering weapons to them anymore, thus helping a warmonger take over it’s neighbouring country.

That is how your actions lead to more genocide.

Well yeah maybe but there’s still a lot of people living there and I have the feeling that the Hamas is not just gonna let the Jewish population live a peaceful life there. You don’t counter a genocide with genocide

Sorry mate i only tried making tacos once but they were fairly mediocre. Nothing special to share really. They were vegan tho so that’s nice.

If you could give me a vegan taco recipe or a way to make Israel disappear without displacing/killing their Jewish population that would be nice. But honestly I’d be fine with the taco recipe

Well yeah but how would .il disappear without Israel disappearing?

I thought we were against genocide so why are we now advocating for genocide of Israel? Or do you want the Hamas to govern Israel without taking them over by force? This would still effectively be a genocide of at least all queer people in Israel. Sorry i agree that Netanjahu is a fuckhead and wrong but two wrongs don’t make a right, the same way the wrong of kidnapping a fuckton of people didn’t make genociding Palestinians right.

I’d say they’ve probably long reached the point where they have enough customers around the world to hold the load on their servers fairly constant. The example with one user only taking 5% of a servers load only works for low customer counts, similar to how you can’t count on one wind turbine or solar plant to provide all of your energy but if you have enough of them you can provide a base line of fairly constant energy

Dumb people are not happy most of the time. They’re perpetually angry and afraid because rich people manipulate them to be that way

On desktop i use bazzite, a fedora fork and on mobile shift OS, which is pretty much decluttered android that came with my phone. I’ll look into it, thanks for the recommendation. I still haven’t checked out any of the recommendations i got so far 😔 i blame it on adhd but I’ll try to get to it soon

Considering Nintendo selling very old games just emulated on their switch for almost full price I’d say people want both new games and their classics. The point is you don’t have to decide which games to get. I play Baldurs Gate 3 but also Age of Wonders 1 or the early Devil May Cry games. I can actually play the whole DMC series on one device while my PS5 is collecting dust as every game costs more there than on PC and I don’t have a big library of games.

Also I’d have to pay way too much money just to be allowed to play online on servers that Sony doesn’t even run. Over the span of 5-10 years I’d have to pay probably around 400-800€ just to play online.

I’m not 100% sure anymore but my pc with an AMD GPU and CPU cost me maybe 1300€ and runs everything i want on highest settings so far. I think the biggest price point on PC is people getting duped by sites like userbenchmark to think they need an Nvidia card that’s ridiculously expensive.

If you plan to do main story only, I’d say, go for the 2nd. However the first dragons dogma has bitterblack isles which is a giant dungeon designed to focus on pretty much nonstop action and multiple dives in, each getting further down and delivering powerful gear to help you get even further. It really helps to give you post-game stuff to do and i miss it in dd2 to the point of thinking about going back to the first one just for that part of the game

But on your new pc you can still play your old games which is not a given on consoles

This might be a weird one as the game is often blamed for not having difficulty settings, but Elden Ring. While it doesn’t have a straight up setting that says easy, there’s a lot of ways to make the game easier.

I really hate how Fromsoft put the “Prepare to Die” tagline onto Dark Souls when it came to PC and seems to develop into more bullshitty scenarios that kill you in unpredictable ways. Elden Ring has for example a lot of enemies that hold their attack for unintuitively long just to catch you off guard and punish you when you roll on the intuitive timing.

The community is to blame as well for the bad reputation of the games with people making fun of others using big shields and summons to beat the game. And herein lie the difficulty options of Elden Ring:

• Using greatshields makes a lot of the game a lot easier
• Using spirit ashes makes places that allow them a lot easier (as opposed to player and npc summons they don’t affect the enemies health pool)
• Using magic allows you to attack with little risk to yourself

You can also summon other players but i don’t know if that makes the game easier: As noted above it raised the enemies HP so everyone has to do their part to succeed but if you are a caster you can mostly sit back and blast enemies from afar while your summons tank. Using player summons also opens your world up for invasions and while the invader usually is in a 1v3 situation they also usually know what they are doing and how to deal with such situations.

If you’re still stuck at a boss, just go somewhere else and explore. The game is designed to teach you that lesson with the first actual boss but a lot of people take it as the game just being hard.

All of this is to say: it is okay to use the games integrated mechanics that make it easy. It doesn’t make you less of a gamer. Elden Ring has such a beautifully crafted world and if you’re looking very interesting lore and it’s a shame that seemingly all people talk about is the difficulty. It is actually the easiest Fromsoft title if you want it to be as it gives you a lot more and more powerful tools than the other games.

(Also if you see a chonky looking gal in black full body armour called Sieglinde, summon me. I have great heals, a big chonky sword and love helping people 😘)
