I would just use my desktop for that use case. There's still a small minority of games that just don't work via proton but it's really a minority.

I've also seen a handful of games with linux builds that just don't run properly because they update the game but don't do enough QA to the linux build or simply don't put resources towards linux issues to the same degree that windows gets.

A handful of games need slight nudges one way or another but overwhelmingly it just works. Way better than it was just a few years ago.

I just want all windows games to run on linux with equivalent performance and without anticheat hurdles. After that happens i'm done with windows.

Honestly, i'm really not that far off as-is. Steam Deck already runs most of my library, it's just the games that don't work with a controller that are a problem.

How come human drivers have more fatalities and injuries per mile driven?

Musk can die in a fire, but self driving car tech seems to be vastly safer than human drivers when you do apples to apples comparisons. It's like wearing a seatbelt, you certainly don't need to have one to go from point A to point B, but you're definitely safer with it - even if you are giving up a little control. Like a seatbelt, you can always take it off.

I don't think the movie in any way calls for eugenics.

If anything it called out how toxic ignorance and stupidity can be in the presence of someone who just wants to do the right thing. It shows how corporate greed and capitalism encourages stupidity to further it's goals of creating basic labor for the corporate machines owned by billionaires to exploit.

But hey, that's just like, my opinion man.

I mean in trumps court of law musk can’t lose.

If dumpy wins, for sure no class action.

If dumpy loses, his Supreme Court will still side with the conservative side anyway, so probably still no class action.

We’ve never had real communism.

I don’t think human nature will allow for true communism at scale. Like all political organizations beyond a handful of people, corruption is de facto present and completely at odds with the theory.

People can swear up and down that it’s doable but I truly don’t think it could ever be by humans. We are too selfish.

I mean, the argument that communism is slavery to the state is a real and valid argument as of 2024.

It's not like capitalism is any less a form of slavery, except instead of stealing from everybody to give to everybody it steals from everybody and gives it all to insurance companies and other businesses benefiting oligarchs. The whole system is slavery under another name, work for the luxury of having a place to sleep at night so that your owner can live a comfortable life. Slavery to many masters who use your body for their gains.

There's not going to be a system that you're not a slave to though, unless we somehow find a way to trivially convert matter to energy and vice versa and build a utopia where machines do everything for us... and we all share the rewards. All hail science fiction communism? (and keep in mind science fiction keeps becoming reality! Just don't hold your breath for this in our lifetimes.)

I like the board game community there. Plus that fried chicken place by the convention center. That's about it.

Lol this guy is going to get an apology and the city is going to be wearing the egg on their face.

Horrible optics. What in the world are they even thinking?

I think it's been proven time and time again that return to office mandates are a way to avoid severance packages. People end up leaving voluntarily. In the age of tens of thousands of layoffs at all the big tech companies this has to have saved them thousands of salaries worth of compensation packages.

They don't care about the "quality" of workers because if someone is truly important they get exceptions, everyone else is imminently replaceable.

that could work, or perhaps have a cut-out on the camera cover that blurs all light going in and has the words written on it "shutter closed" or something. Digital way built into the driver is probably easiest.
