Yo just for the record you made your life so much more difficult installing skyrim that way and not through steam\proton, even if you were pirating.

i have 15 years of experience and do infinite free linux troubleshooting on matrix if you want some help

Yup, but they at least have political parties that support free healthcare.

you’re forgetting how terrible the american parties are.

That isn’t good evidence, we don’t have a large sample size and the culture can vary highly depending on the conditions at the start.

One country, even 10 countries, would not be a scientific study.

I think in the us it’d be possible to have a party that supports universal healthcare. Sure they’d still be libs but that would still massively help.

All it does is make the political bribery slightly more expensive.

I disagree, i think it makes it possible for 3rd parties to succeed, maybe not in practice, but at least theoretically, which is a worthwhile change. But let’s grant that that’s all it does… that’s still a good thing and not worth opposing.

At a deeper level, representative elections always result in an oligarchy. The wealthy / economically dominant classes are the only ones who have enough money / prestige to finance their campaigns and win the popularity contest. It makes any political system based on elections nothing more than political theatre.

Yup, I agree with all this, but i don’t see it as a reason to oppose better election systems.

You’re right that it doesn’t solve much but the two party system in the US is particularly terrible. Fundamental change is a lot harder to achieve than changing voting systems and even with a socialist state we’d want one of these, so I think there’s no point opposing it even if it isn’t a panacea

I don’t agree that he’s a nazi but he did some pretty heinous things, like tricking these people into writing this horrible sign:

https://www.theverge.com/2017/2/13/14605060/pewdiepie-disney-deal-lost-nazi-anti-semitic-imagery

and he did a hard-r on stream.

I don’t think this qualifies for being a nazi (he doesn’t advocate for an authoritarian dictatorship or a protectionist economy, nor does he want to scapegoat a group for all of his countries problems), but it is awful, racist, and disgusting.

But I don’t really care if people do call him a nazi, to be clear, it’s probably more effective messaging anyway.

I consider that recent, but… yeah, they’re the fedora atomic desktops. Bazzite is identical to them, you can pick kde or gnome, so it isn’t just kinoite or silverblue, so, atomic is more accurate in this context.

Actually there was a recent rebrand, https://fedoramagazine.org/introducing-fedora-atomic-desktops/

I meant identical to fedora atomic.

The developer is just kind of insane. They reimplemented wlroots from scratch all on their own, a feat that cannot be understated, and the reason they did that is because of how massively they were outpacing wlroots development in terms of features.

just some things:

1. a full proper animation stack for eyecandy
2. single window capture (sway still doesn’t have this)
3. keypress forwarding to specific windows (like xdotool)
4. global hotkey support
5. insanely good documentation: https://wiki.hyprland.org/
6. color management and HDR (sway is just now getting this)
7. proper permission management for screencopy (coming in the newest version, first compositor to implement)
8. a full plugin system for extra things you want to do
9. a proper app not responding dialog

If the feature exists, hyprland has it, almost guaranteed, they are not minimalists, which I appreciate right now while wayland is still getting everything sorted out. It’s also the only compositor i’ve used that mostly works with a certain dumb app i uses clipboard.

And just check out the rate of changes:

vaxry is crazy.

Why?

because I realized I could improve it and you hadn’t replied yet, I just added the link to kepler gpus

No, it’s a fact for everyone.

My source is a survey with thousands of respondants, your source is dude just trust me. It’s a fact, you can cover your ears and go lalala but it changes nothing

…no, it’s a statistical fact, look at my sources.

I demonstrated that was statistically false

…you mean western countries where nvidia gpu’s are the most common?

If we’re including beginners in developing countries this is even less common of an issue, when I was in india, not a single person I helped with tech had a graphics card, why would they have a 470xx series driver gpu and not an integrated system? It’s not even the cheapest choice. I recently built a PC in india, coincidentally, and we ended up going with an integrated system for a gaming PC.

i mean, look at these stats, it’s such a minority it’s hardly worth mention. You’ll probably say “these are just the steam stats, most of them aren’t on steam anyway!” But if they’re not using steam/proton… they almost definitely aren’t using xwayland anyway so the issues don’t apply to them in the first place.

https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5204/~/list-of-kepler-series-geforce-desktop-gpus

compare that to the list on the hardware survey and you’ll see how unbelievably rare this problem actually is. They don’t even make the list, it’s less than a 1% issue.

…the vast majority of beginners do not have 10+ year old hardware.

I want everyone except those who use 10+ year old hardware to move, and in fact, that’s exactly what i’ve recommended in the past.

here I am making that exact recommendation:

https://lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz/post/53716147/18224187

We shouldn’t be recommending things for a tiny niche, we should be recommending what’s best on average, and as we learn about the specific needs of a user, then recommend things specifically for that user.

And it still is. Being expected to use slightly different software when you’re using a 10+ year old hardware setup is not weird. Furthermore, this is an issue with the nvidia driver support, which is proprietary, the open source drivers have no such problems. And again, this will be nearly completely solved once steam/proton stop needing xwayland.

I desperately want a smithay based hyprland clone… hyprland is just so unbelievably good, shame about the dev.
