HOW DARE YOU ROWLING IS LITERALLY MURDER
HOW DARE YOU ROWLING IS LITERALLY MURDER
Uhhhh well maybe you’re privvy to some insider information you’d like to share? Because they’ve announced no such intention.
Probably could have chosen different terminology but “grows” doesn’t necessarily mean more people became gay, it could just mean that more people openly identified that way.
Yes but you can literally have “known supported hardware” without literally building a “ground up Linux machine”.
That’s cool but probably unnecessary. The vast majority of hardware works fine.
I definitely opted for an AMD GPU in my new gaming rig specifically to run Linux/ChimeraOS, and hopefully one day SteamOS.
When you get around to a new laptop, look out for one that is Linux compatible. Unfortunately many hardware OEMs don’t take the time to provide drivers for Linux, and that causes problems.
We’ll see when it comes closer to that time. Historically I have voted for whoever I liked or just not voted at all. Maybe 50/50.
Not surprised. Several years on and I still can’t get Fallen Order working properly.
So you don’t think it’s possible for someone to support a project and simultaneously acknowledge that it doesn’t suit everyone’s use-case?
I won’t vote for Biden for a myriad of reasons but I’m sure as shit not voting for Trump either.
The entirety of our federal election is built on a false dichotomy and I won’t contribute to it.
I think you’re misreading the comment you replied to. It’s obviously sarcastic.
I’d rather buy it than spend hours and hours downloading and failing to unpack it for unknown reasons.
But I’m not going to spend more than like 10 minutes trying to make it work. If it takes longer than that, it’s just a shit game that doesn’t deserve my money. Too many other perfectly good games to spend my time playing to fuck around with all of that.
Someone buys an expensive car. They say “I cant use the railway!” Are you going to tell them they’re wrong?
Yes. Because they are.
We dont know if they live next to a railway line. They’re also heavily invested in the car and unlikely to pay out for rail tickets.
None of which indicates they “can’t use the railway”. It may not be their preferred travel method, which is fine (in the metaphorical sense), but to say they “can’t” use the railway is simply untrue.
OP said “the software and driver support isn’t there”.
Someone replied and corrected them to explain the software and driver support does in fact exist.
OP replied to say that what he actually meant was that it didn’t support the specific software and driver they wanted to use.
Seems like a perfectly reasonable conversation.
What are purge lines for?
To purge the system?
The reason is called the Digital Markets Act.
Facebook is not federating.
I still can’t make sense of Mastodon threads.
The problem I see with almost every Fedi product is that they just try to clone whatever is popular instead of considering what makes sense.
Character limits make absolutely no sense.
Tagging 12 different fuckin people automatically 34 replies down the thread makes no sense.
The layout and the way it’s displayed makes no sense.
It makes no sense for PixelFed to federate with other micro-blogging services or to include the teeny tiny fucking buttons.
Lemmy has very easy to follow and legible threads but Twitter/Mastodon ones just confuse the absolute fuck out of me.
didn’t we create and use fediverse software like Mastodon, Lemmy, PixelFed etc in large part to escape the constant hate-baiting and algorithmic manipulation of companies like Meta?
“We” created the Fedi to have interoperable systems and to give users autonomy over their accounts and their feeds. That’s why there’s an option for users to block other users and even entire servers.
Why are so many in the fediverse prepared to throw their fellow fediverse users under the bus
No one is doing that.
If Threads was a fediverse instance, it would’ve been defederated from by just about everyone by now.
True.
Why are some people bending over backwards to give Meta a free pass?
No one wants to give Meta a “free pass”. We want a way for Meta users to see that they can leave the platform, escape the ads and data-mining without losing access to their friends, family, news, etc. It’s specifically because Meta is so terrible that we want to federate.
You see it as the Fediverse promoting Meta but we see the opposite.
‘Wait and see’ I hear people say
I’ve literally never seen anyone say this except FediPacters as a strawman. No one needs to “wait and see”. We know exactly what we’re getting.
