One exception to it : fascists managed to convince people who can only lose stuff to a war that it’s good for them too.

No, a language is not just a language. I fact, it’s a bunch of compilers. How many there are and the hardware they work on is what matters.

And as a matter of fact, rust isn’t as much of an industry standard as C++ is.

I feel like like inventing the wheel every five years is not the best use of talented people’s time.

What’s the problem with the gecko engine?

I must be clear that the problem is not that it rakes time to do the things if you have the right recipe to do them. It takes time to find it when you make a mistake.

The good way is simple: you need a system that’s well updated, so debian stable is not ideal and that was my first mistake. You need to use Proton on steam, or heroic game launcher for gog. And that’s it.

The setup for these things is straightforward, simply follow a guide for your OS.

Things got better and better in the last 2 years, and they’re still improving. I would argue that today Windows is not better. People learned how to install graphic drivers on windows, and any setup on Linux now is not harder than that.

Windows forced me to update to a version that has advertisement in it. It has built in network calls in the start menu. I would have to pay a licence and make an account, something I avoided for years. Sharing file on a private network is insanely hard to do and very buggy.

Now I’m not a Windows admin, but I’m a Linux admin, so there are many, many things I know how to do on Linux and not on Windows.

This made me realize that there is a bias: when something doesn’t work on windows, the something doesn’t work, or you only need to find how to hack it to work. But when something doesn’t work on Linux, it’s Linux that doesn’t work. That’s a double standard. The same kind of work or problems on Windows is ignored.

There are so many things today to help people use Windows, like classes, professionals, help desk, it’s everywhere, for everyone, yet it’s somehow considered easy to use windows. BTW any organisation that made the move did saw it happen. I mean that many organisations moved to Linux and gave the support and formation for it to work, and it worked.

My brother, who want nothing to do with computers if he can, asked me to install Linux on his domestic laptop. It’s not an everyone is doing it yet, but there’s definitely something.

Forcing everyone to stay connected will make pirating it harder, and that will drive many, many people away.

Playing on Linux for a year now. I wouldn’t say it was flawless, but a lot has to do with me learning how to do it correctly. Like using steam and heroic game launcher, trying a different version of Proton or wine, and it’s beginning to be very easy now that I have the right recipe so to say.

Yes very much.

What the fuck?! This shit with tiltok is one of the ugliest imperialist shit the USA pulled this century, dropping the rule of trade to the full on empire mode, and you’re talking here about whataboutism?

We have a country literally stealing a company because it’s profitable and can spread influence! And you’re here like “China bad”?

Is this the strategy? Anytime something bad from the US comes up you deflect for it to be about China I guess?

That’s quite ironic coming from the USA! Did the patriot act got amended recently or is this sheer hypocrisy?

We’re talking about history where mysoginy left a big footprint because it was made by men that incapable of thinking that women could be more than what they were in their time.

Exactly like today. You’re asking why it matters whether it was a man or a woman, yet this whole conversation sparked because someone said that it could be a woman.

That’s conservatism for you.

you talked about enemity first, remember? you have this view of a fight, and that anyone who dare say that a woman did something and not a man, is fighting men.

You have a very defensive position. Which means you feal attacked. You say it directly when you talk about “enemy”.

You are the problem my friend. Your first comment is aa problem. And the support it receives is concerning and scary.

You are ignorant of recent history then.

Men did do their best to segregate women in the 18th and 19th century. And they succeeded. Even in the language.

Women fighting for women to be recognized in history is an important fight for women to be respected and recognized for their doing, because even now they aren’t.

And I’m not saying it’s an all men problem. It’s a society problem.

Seeing the reactions in this thread, it does seem that a lot of men are indeed enemies of women. Why would it be so hot otherwise to discuss this?

I don’t know about English, but in French in the 19th century men did enforce the use of homme (men) instead of humain (human) in the déclaration des droits de l’homme et du citoyen, and in the language, because they did want to segregate women. It was a purposeful and deliberate decision.

I am convinced it’s exactly the same in English.

So you’re arguing that people would have more use to write moon cycles than women cycles? And you talk about bigotry?!

And you define “satisfying” as “that one shot anything and trivialise everything”?

What I read is “boohoo the game is too hard for me”
