That’s the theme that MAGA just doesn’t get, and why the “both sides” arguments never hold water. I don’t like anyone in the mega-wealthy class who believes the law is for sale, including the Trump family. MAGA claims to have the same distain for the “elite class”, but always makes a special carve-out just for Trump and his loyalists. I don’t get it.

It kinda mirrors the difference between monotheism and atheism: if you made a list of all the gods both groups don’t believe in, the lists would look awfully similar, differing only by one. But good luck making that argument to a god-fearing Christian.

Why not Orangeskins?

To be clear, you think reconstruction era disenfranchisement was limited to “a little gerrymandering”?

Reminder that we’ve been here before, but worse. This too shall pass, be diligent.

You may note that Bazzite is not, nor is based on either of those.

Bazzite is basically a customized version of Fedora

And Fedora is upstream of Redhat. So it’s not like they’re completely unrelated.

For the record, the arguably more egregious offense here is that the Catholic church feels the same way about confessions of murder. A serial killer could confess every kill to their priest every time it happens, and the Catholic church will not allow the priest to report it, period.

Add it all to the list of crimes against humanity the Catholic church has been guilty of over the last 1500+ years.

Never could get Kodi to work for me. Guess I’ll try out the jellyfin one, thanks for the suggestion. But also, if this is possible, why can’t I figure out an easy way to just cast from my phone to my desktop?

From what I can gather, the little cast button is implemented via a google-specific api, and in the interest of DRM, all apps and OSes that show it will only cast content to specific “blessed” devices that are locked down.

If I could run a program on my PC that behaved identically to a Chromecast as far as my and my guests phones are concerned, I would be sooooo happy. Because then I can put that on a raspi and hook it to my TV without having google MITM everything I do.

Why are they called “patched” and “fix” and who is installing them?

It’s meant to be a convenience for people who know what they’re doing.

You can’t even install from AUR using pacman directly. You either need to makepkg them manually, or use an extra AUR compatible package manager like yay. It’s made as clear as possible to arch users that the AUR is not vetted in any way, it’s just for convenience.

If I can cast to it using the cast button this would be perfect, but I know google has done a lot to lock that down 😕

As long as it asks for permission first, I wouldn’t mind having the option. I’d almost always rather run something in my browser than as a separate executable, especially on a mobile device.

I do find this a bit odd, though. Because there’s no better way to do whatever you want than to piggyback it on a “save the children” narrative. Seems like these departments could have played a key role in their authoritarian overreach strategies.

Cool, welcome! I assume you’re aware that it won’t be all sunshine and rainbows from day 1, but give it time and leverage the community to solve any issues you run into. Effective bug reports and knowledge sharing make the experience better for everyone.

To me it’s worth having control over my hardware, and an OS that’s designed to work for me and not some corpo against me.

Between this and the other NOAA headline, I feel like we’ll soon live in the Rainworld universe.

Looking for Group. As someone else said, the ability to click “queue for dungeon”, be dropped into an instance with a bunch of random, and proceed to faceroll the dungeon without any thought or patience required.

The fun part of old school MMOs was the journey, not the destination. Modern MMOs have all optimized the journey out by making everything doable without ever being dependent on another player.

As someone who believes LFG was the beginning of the end of MMOs, I can’t tell if I despise this or if I’m impressed.
