Haha I know, but like to pretend. I literally made the same point to my wife after reading like 10 pages of the Soviet Democracy book I was linked earlier.

We did eventually move further toward more democracy and socialist practices up until the red scare imo, but the foundations were definitely not as rosy as they paint it to be and many people lost their lives to push for progress.

Started with Soviet Democracy, very interesting so far

Have you been paying attention at all?

Trump is literally actively “joking” about annexing Canada this week, and they’ve been exporting MAGA brain rot to Canada for years.

Trump also threatened to unilaterally invade/bomb Mexico to attack cartels.

How is that not directly interfering with “free and fair elections”

Hi I’m a lurker and I appreciated the responses.

Never really looked too deep on Cuba beyond what is obviously forced into my face by American education/media/“news” etc…

So interesting to see a dissenting opinion, I support socialism/communism tho I wish there were better examples of communism working to point to, as if the west didn’t actively work against it all the time lol.

But it is fair to say I think that it is a bit concerning how often it has devolved into essentially dictatorships of one kind or another, but basically since Reagan it’s not like we’ve actually had a honest legislature/election process.

Starfield wasn’t terrible, but it also wasn’t great, very mediocre. I bought the limited edition like a fool because I saw the gameplay trailers and thought it looked awesome. I should have expected there would be very little depth to any of the systems.

Fallout 4 and Skyrim are my top played games on Steam by a mile, but I always play heavily modded.

Ahhh I appreciate this explanation, I’ve started learning how docker works from setting up my home lab over the last month, I actually was already using Bazzite on my old “fuck around” laptop lol. Now the dots are connecting.

It’s funny it happened to Apple too

Completely agree, I think of industrialization as well when comparing it.

Steel plow comes to mind.

Damn cyclists, watch where you’re going!

Halo Infinite did it before either tbf

I’m sure there’s several modules in the Linux kernel that are necessary to function, and you’re also aware that when people broadly refer to Linux, they don’t mean the kernel specifically lol

I find it runs better then YouTube in Firefox on my crappy laptop

Linux is not a singular thing, it’s a collection of a lot of things.

America is big lol

Here’s the thing, I hate the debt obsession in the US, however it’s also really not that difficult to not get into way more debt then you can manage (barring medical expenses) and having a high credit score (even though it is stupid) absolutely does help in a ton of ways here.

I would encourage Americans to play the game smart, use credit as if it were debit, do not intentionally go into debt unless absolutely necessary, and if you’re in that position you should start seeking help, because getting crushed in debt is fucking awful.

I learned a lot of what NOT to do from my parents and paying attention during the 2008 crisis.

I’ll definitely have to start over and try again, I managed to get it partially functional through disrobox (was able to at least launch) but the first page is a framed in chromium browser, which does not function properly through that setup.

I did try both, neither would work 🤷‍♂️

I was attempting to install zulujdk 17 and thinkorswim and can not get it functional, which I’ve done on zorin, Ubuntu, Linux mint, EndevourOS, etc… Just can’t get it functional on Bazzite due to the ostree setup for some reason.

Currently using Bazzite as my main OS on my laptop, and it works pretty good, the ostree setup has prevented me from manually installing several things though :/
