Does Incus support things like Kernel Samepage Merging? How does it handle Windows VMs? Does the WebUI give a nice and easy novnc window that just works?

Pedophiles arguing why they like this niche anime just a little too much…

Really wish they transitioned to a “Not-for-profit” structure, rather than non-profit. Non-profits can still be profit driven, sadly.

Why in the hell would they shoot an already dead food service worker?

People aren’t idiots. If they don’t know what it means they can look it up or ask for help.

Flip that. People are idiots. If they don’t know what something means, they won’t look it up. Not Desktop Linux users today but, definitely normies if Linux ever comes on a system they buy in the future.

They made a good example - BlueZ software stack sucks; if Fluoride can be put under a compatible open source license, I’d much rather us use better subsystems in 100% userspace. That’s a win for everyone.

Why should trans women be excluded for being above average but other women who are above average shouldn’t be?

Because by nature of their transition, they don’t fit in a single cleanly defined category. We should just change the definition to say: Those with XX chromosomal pairs. Because you can’t change those. Nice and simple. Anyone with double-X chromosomes, good deal. Anyone with XY - goes into the “open” category - which is by default, the ones usually with mostly men in them.

It’s objectively the truth that sex is another class category created by humans to sort people and enforce a hierarchy of sex.

This is patently false. It was a category to distinguish between two observable variations of human. The category of man/woman existed in the annals of history far beyond what we know today. Before we were humans, we knew instinctively what a man/woman was. You see these systems in herding species already. Don’t give me this “we created this division just so we could dunk on others” bullcrap.

If I’m born crippled, I can’t compete in the Olympics. It happens. We can only produce the closest thing to fair that we all agree on. It’s not to exclude transgender people, it’s simply that the exclusion just happens to exist based on how we determine eligibility.

It’s literally the most logical and ethical rationale that could be achieved. The ethical and logical rationale is that sexual dimorphism exists, and we understand it quite succinctly.

They are separated by sex, because people are separated by sex characteristics.

Since Gender no longer refers to sex, it only refers to perceived place in society, it has no place being used as a metric for sports.

“But muh family and fwiends use it!” or “I have an autistic cousin twice removed so I can’t stop because it’s the only thing he’ll use!”

Any excuse to keep huffing that copium.

80% on Tier 3 or lower for Proton Click Play. That’s not a small number. That means a majority of games, have bugs, crashing issues, things that cause them to be unplayable or glitchy…

So I repeat…

A lot of good those benchmarks do when only 20% of the games are playable to the same degree…

Great, you have success with it. But your anecdotal evidence does not make a solid claim to base things upon.

From a benchmark perspective this has shown to be false in some or many areas.

A great lot of good those benchmarks are going to to when your game doesn’t run AT ALL. This is such a non-argument it’s not even funny at this point.

It’s great to be an open source advocate, but this argument crosses the line into zealotry. It has very little basis in the reality of things.

Do I want Microsoft to die a quick and painful death? Absolutely. Is Linux the superior choice in all situations – absolutely not.

I mean, just stop being offended over that kind of shit constantly and I won’t have to worry about it. Stop calling people intolerant when they use the wrong name. Stop attacking the people who are trying to learn, and maybe they will.

Normal, people don’t get offended if you forget their name. You need a set of rules that follows the stereotype. Then people can learn the stereotypical rules, and be fine.

If that number were 15% or so I’d agree.

So if they exist on OSX, then Windows doesn’t have a bastion on them.

Did you miss the qualifier “that uses explosive charges”? The engineering challenge is in the explosive part.

Use whatever works for you. Linux can be a pain in the ass sometimes. If your moral fiber isn’t strong enough to override your need for sanity, sometimes you just need to use what has the path of least resistance.

If you’re using it mostly for gaming, Windows is going to be the superior choice. Microsoft has just simply ensured that lock-in. Things are certainly changing, thanks to Valve; but don’t feel afraid to try Linux out without dumping your whole life into it. Get a SBC (Single board computer) and run some Linux services on it - IRC bouncers, mail servers, buy a domain name and practice reverse proxies, virtual machines, etc.

There is room for both…until you’ve decided that Microsoft has stepped over that line you’ve drawn in the sand; then you can convince yourself to dive headlong into Linux full-time.

Regardless, Linux has already won. It runs the internet. It runs near every network device you own. You probably even have Linux running on something you had no idea was running it; Cameras, lower levels of consumer devices, etc. If the only bastion that Windows still has is Gaming…I think we’re doing pretty good.

Projectiles are a part of human nature. We’ve always thrown spears, rocks, etc – firearms are just an extension of our better understanding of the world. I know of barely anything else that uses explosive charges that is as widely applicable to the general public. Roofing nail guns? But that’s such a niche subject, it’s not something people are really worried about trying to make with 3D printing. Believe me, if I had a better engineering challenge for 3D printing, I’d be suggesting it. But nothing quite hits like containing an explosive charge, and utilizing the energy in a way that performs work without destroying itself.
