As I said, it depends on how you define truth. If it's enough that people agree with you, your distance from the generally accepted truth can vary widely, depending on the donor of people you base it on. The fact that people agree with you doesn't make something true on its own.
Effectively the question is: How reproducible do you want your truth to be?
If you only need your buddy to come to a similar truth you may not need to argue that much. But to convince a perfect stranger you will probably have to make your case properly. How did you arrive at your truth? Which conformable facts do you base it on? Which predictions does your claimed truth make, that might validate it?

That depends on how those people determined their beliefs to be true. And how you define truth.

And are vol-canoes flying canoes?

They're absolutely within their rights to try and block ad-blockers. And users are fully within their rights to circumvent the blocks in order to protect their privacy and the security of their machines and the data on them, as Google has proven repeatedly to be either uncaring or incompetent when it comes to ensuring the ads they serve aren't spreading malware.

If you have to install a rootkit to play a game, they're not worth paying on Windows, either.

Pre-emptive termination.

Or you can use an actual password manager, so you don't have to copy and paste user and password manually and also get support for TOTP. And handy tools like a password generator.
Spreadsheets are just a woefully inadequate tool to manage your passwords.

Just CUPS things.

According to Wikipedia:

The name pomegranate derives from medieval Latin pōmum "apple" and grānātum "seeded".[7] Possibly stemming from the old French word for the fruit, pomme-grenade, the pomegranate was known in early English as "apple of Grenada"

Yarr harr fiddle de-dee…

Had that experience with Borderlands 3. Obviously it's entirely possible that Borderlands 3 usage of DX12 is just borked in a way that affects Windows worse than Vulkan.
DXVK on Windows seems to be unsupported, but a thing nevertheless: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/mlfcsc/a_guide_to_dxvk_on_windows/

Whoops, the mask slipped.

On Windows you may be right. A buddy I game with regularly has had trouble with DX12 games crashing randomly.
On Linux they run just fine and frequently perform better than DX11 on Linux or DX12 on Windows.

Not college, but places.

But I have to fight the stupid OS to give me useful information. I have to install 3^(rd) party stuff. By default you only get this useless error reporting tool. Even if you report an error your likely to never hear from anyone and the chance of the error being fixed is virtually nonexistent.

On Linux the necessary information is usually readily available. The worst offender in my experience is Steam itself. You can get logs from games fairy easily. But if Steam misbehaves things can get more complicated.

Or that it's literally not supported by the publisher. It may run fine, but you're on your own.

Oh, my bad. But same deal.

But they're few and far between. Every Digimon can talk.

They can vocalise more than just their names, so if anything, they're Digimon.

Seems to need some tinkering, according to ProtonDB.
