  • I had a similar experience but when i installed lutris everything worked so in total it only took like 20 mins to get everything up and running. Tho i do have a huge bias because i started using linux first(more than 10 years ago) and only started playing pc games a few months ago. Also if its a proper game without 20 launchers its really easy to get working, usually works outa the box.


  • The problem is, you cant check the ai’s sources in most cases. Id also say blindly trusting wikipedia and the internet is a huge problem nowadays. Wikipadia only has a few dozen instances of there being mass manipulation of facts but for example twitter, tiktok, etc are a huge breeding ground for misinformation. So no you shouldnt blindly rely on wikipedia/internet the same way you shouldnt rely on ai. Also the other thing is, if every time you search the internet you kill one turtle then eveey question asked to an ai is like killing a thousand…




  • And then i just have the stupidest shit ever, mostly trying to gaslight chatgpt into agreeing with me about random stuff thats actually incorrect. Btw psa: please never use ai for school or work, it produces slop and acts like a cruch that youre going to start relying on. Ive seen it so many times in the people around me. Ai is like a drug.


  • Also most people only see the living conditions of the top 1%. Going to beijing and being amazed by it is like going to hollywood or manhattan and then ignoring the rest of la or upstate ny. And then we havent even gotten to the really bad ones… And then europe also exists. We still exploit poorer countries(which now china also does and the us as well of course) but basically we have the best living conditions in the world and also some of the best places for queer people. Like literally my country that counts as a shithole in europe(hungary) is still somehow one of the best countries by a lot of metrics in the whole world, usually only behind other european countries.








  • I literally just dont think so. The diagrams shouldnt be IN the freaking device it should be in the box on the manual. Also from my ubderstanding framework doesnt provide a bunch of low level documentation which i also think should be included. Old devices, old tvs, etc could have complicated assemblies and you had to be tech savvy to take it apart, the difference was they made it possible to take it apart. In the same space framework provides 4 io ports you could put all the io that could be possible and still make it repairable. You can use daughter boards instead of whole physical assemblies and save a bunch of space and reduce on mechanical assemblies you need to keep all the parts together. For example on a desktop device where you had more space old devices would use a fuse panel but on a handheld radio you would need to take out a few screws and only then could you replace the fuse. And the manual and wiring diagram was on a piece of paper you got in the box. It was to save space. I think its a completely worthile investment. The problem most people face when designing something like this is its hard and they either cheap out and make it hard to repair or waste resources on complicated mechanisms that could be achieved in an easier way. While this isnt such a big problem on a laptop, when you get to phones it is a hard balance. Of course if you legally force companies to comply with RTR then suddenly they come up with really good ideas to balance cost, complexity and repairability which is what we should do.

    Sorry for the rant btw this is just a space im very invested in and have a lot of opinions about so i wanted to share what i think.

    Even tho mario kart is and probably will be an extremely fun game, its still such a fucking scam. Im gonna buy a switch 2 but to be fair i skipped the switch because i suspected at the release that there will be backwards compatibility and seems like i was right. Even tho i only have a gba and 3ds and then the switch 2 ill buy, i can basically play the entire handheld line of games that nintendo released. This was my tactic but im still dissapointed at the prices even tho i skipped a gen.
