I know so many people who have stayed in shitty abusive jobs because they can’t lose the healthcare. Imagine if people could fuck off and decide to live a less resource intensive life? Would be terrible for the economy.

Theres people that was scared of losing their jobs that they didnt disobey managment and leave the factory before it was washed away in the helene floods… many died. But dont worry, the family got a $100 walmart giftcard for compensation…

Or ban your hardware because you wanted full control of your own hardware.

The pentiometer joysticks were fine, its just manufacturers all cheaped out and produce inferior ones now. Its a win win for them, cheaper to produce and you buy more when they break! Same damn thing happened with mouse buttons.

It helps that they arent emulating a current generation. It thus makes it harder for nintendo to screech ‘piracy’ when the media is largely out of print.

The land fish yearn for the oceans once more.

Well… i mean you could just run as root just like you would as as an admin user on windows. But that violates basic security principles.

Also, you gave up because you couldnt figure how to display hidden files?.. its litterally a setting in the file explorer program just like windows. Ctrl±H is a common shortcut to toggle it. Or in the terminal, the command is ‘ls -a’

Depending what your doing with the system, you shouldnt ever need to touch the terminal.

But without the terminal, you will struggle to have total control of the system and will be as limited as windows.

Most anticheats work fine on linux… its the kernel level ones that never work. And frankly you shouldnt want to run it on windows either…

Gps wont be replaced. Gps works litterally anywhere on the planet’s surface without any other data connection. Your phones acceleratormeters are decent. But will quickly become disoriented without recalibration from gps.

The ps1 didnt copy the snes. Nintendo contracted Sony to design a CD attachment for the snes, but then nintendo went to Philips and partnered with the CD-i project. Which pissed off sony and they used their experience and infinite resources to design a new system purely in spite. It just turned out being too good.

As for using the “same” sound chip. Are we really suprised that a company who owns a circuit chip manufacturer would use their own chips?

Given the state of gta 5, i wont buy it ever.

And replace them with american spyware? Nice try NSA

laughs in linux

“Purging” normally meant “expulsion from Party membership” and carried no actual punishment. For criminals who were purged, that also included jail time or even execution. The myth that everyone purged was executed comes from the Black Book of Communism,

Your words. So you agree the great purge occured… so how are you going to explain how 1 million executions were justified and how many more does it need to be to stop being mythical?

Cant wait to see how you hand wave this one away.

You do know “purging” wasnt being sent off to a happy little farm, right?

I said purging opposition is a facist purge. And can you really say “citizens” support it when elections were limited by choices preapprpved by the communist party? Even if it were supported by the majority… then that simply makes them no better than the nazis purging their population. Do you support genocide? It sounds a lot like you support genocide.

Im tired of these wasted arguments. I agree the soviets were not facists in the strictest sense. But my entire point is the result of the soviet model lead to the exact same autocracy authoritarian government that denied their civilians right to their own voices.

Lets see here… the definition of facism

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

authoritarian: check

dictatorial leader: check

militarism: check

forcible suppression of opposition: check

subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation: check

strong regimentation of society and the economy: check

It may claim to be a turkey, but its seems to be clucking a lot like a chicken.

Sounds a lot like facism in a trench coat.
