It "just works" 95% of the time with no tweaks. That's the benefit. Games in your library will install and run with zero intervention, just like on Windows and at times with better compatibility because the tweaks and dependencies are already configured. It's nice not having to manage wine versions and prefixes.

This is my biggest gripe with developers. More often than not the native version either has worse performance or poor compatibility whereas the windows versions just seem to work. It seems like they aren't putting effort into making their games compatible with newer compositors or something because proton "just works".

Plus you can probably run stock Android on the op6 if you wanted to run Android 13

It said support was bipartisan, which if you know anything about Michigan conservatives and Whitmer its pretty shocking they'd agree on anything

Poor kid. 2 weeks of his schooling disrupted over complete bs. Dress code is already mostly bs, but leave it to Texas to take it the nth degree and dictate hair length. Not even in Utah do they have such draconian rules on hair length.

I imagine everything else became more expensive too, labor, shipping, processing, etc

This is all I want. I'll settle for an iPhone when apple fully complies with EU regulations. Once they officially allow third party app stores I'll be interested, and at that point I wouldn't know the difference between the two

I can see this going wrong with steam proton if each install gets it's own wine config, simply reinstalling or updating might look like a new machine

Why would they choose a us citizen. That's already a difficult place to start cause there'd be more surveillance on him vs another person from a different country or a full Chinese citizen.

Yeah my SO and I are too busy with bg3, maybe by the time we get to it it'll have a coop mod ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I am absolutely fucking loving this game. The split screen coop is incredible, albeit it needs some work. Honestly one of the best game me and my SO have played in a long, long time and by far the most immersive campaign we've ever been able to play together.

I'm playing on Linux and there are only a few issues I've come across: local multiplayer is disabled by default and requires an environment variable to enable, also there seems to be a memory leak after playing for a few hours where fps drops pretty dramatically. Other than that I don't think there's much of a difference between windows and pc.

It's honestly sad that these people would rather hold on to the little power they have than retire and spend the little time they have left with family.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but coal powered plants have caused more cancer than any of those events on their own and when operated safely to modern standards they have a very low to no risk of release whereas coal plants release pollutants by design. Nuclear waste is in a solid state so it's far easier to dispose of underground vs coal which immediately gets put into the atmosphere

This sounds like a slam dunk separation of church and state case. I've seen a lot of bs from the LDS since moving to Utah, from liquor licenses to psychiatric care, etc. I do not trust them to responsibly hand out welfare to those that need it. If they were giving out these funds directly to the state with no strings attached, fine, but it appears that they don't and they are in control of how the aid is given, and maybe even who receives it which is hugely problematic even if they help non-mormons.

Anyone defending this as "fiscally responsible" are idiots that have no idea how this church works or how our country was meant to work.

I'm glad to hear that's not the case! I was speaking on my own experience living out west in the US where there is still a lot of public land. The attitude in the western US is unfortunately pretty bad. They want more and more public land to develop into low density single family home markets like Phoenix. It's pretty infuriating hearing the locals moan about BLM and concoct conspiracies about how they stole land from them and show zero interest in the health of the local wildlife.

There's still quite a bit of untouched land in Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Navajo, basically anywhere that has large amounts of BLM land, but this unfortunately is getting pushback from locals who want everything to be developed.

Yeah I can't help but feel so frustrated seeing people develop places like this. In order to support wildlife they need valleys as well as mountains. You can't just build on every strip of usable land because a lot of animals need to graze and nest there too.

I moved to Utah and a lot of towns cities straddle mountains like this where the town is in the valley next to the mountains. It's very cool, but Id take forests over a view. I find being surrounded by woods much more comforting than high desert with a view but I guess that just depends on where you grew up.

Wood and sheetrock

It's wise to have a small toaster oven if you absolutely need to cook something. They preheat fast and obviously put off less heat than a full oven. I don't really bother with the oven much these days as it's getting over 110 here at the moment. Also cook after the sun sets

It blows my mind how homes in the desert hardly use swamp coolers. It's just a sign to me how unprepared people are. If the grid becomes unstable, this place almost immediately becomes uninhabitable due to how inefficient ac is. Homes are hardly built with efficiency in mind. I see homes painted black, with floor to ceiling windows, set on top of sand stone cliffs. Nobody out here seems to realize how dangerous this all is or that they're living in a desert.

Ffs if it were me id dig into the ground and paint my walls white, and only put windows on the north/south sides, use geothermal cooling/a swamp cooler, etc.
