In the context of the post, 17 year olds are incapable of 'Having and fulfilling adult responsibilities' while 18s fully can, which doesn't make sense biologically, therefore putting arbitrary age restrictions doesn't make sense.
You become an adult when you become an adult and your psyche will be able to deal with things when it becomes able, not when you live for 6570 days (18 years) or whatever.
We don't have evidence that that specific - and imaginary - 13 year old isn't, maybe he isn't fully ready, but he's ready enough to deal with what he has to deal with. (remember people don't go from being treated like kids to having a 9 to 5, I am not saying we should let him bear his responsibility fully, but I think many 13 year olds, depending on how they're raised and genetics and climate and other factors, can have a part time job - at least, and do have the spirit of an adult, if not the the full set of abilities)
Also it is for the better to keep everyone close to using most of their abilities, abundant free time will lead to psychological issues most of the time, burying your worries in work is mostly healthy and increases the quality of life.
(That obviously dependents on WHAT you're burying, but work is probably the cure)
(Also I am not saying we should kick 13 year olds from school and encourage them to get jobs instead of education)
True. I think the populations of the world have put so much pressure on this case it can't be brushed aside, but the US Loves Isreal, and has much experience avoiding consequences, but I am not sure how much of the blow can they soften on Isreal at the moment, but I still don't doubt the US's ability to hide history from the masses.
(I know Trump is old news but the video's made me laugh when I first saw it)
The US: "I am going to say I don't support this, but I do, and all of you understand that I do, and you all know what will happen if you refuse"
Maybe I am just too much of a 'conspiracy theory acknowledging, modern capitalism hating, 1% despising, extremist muslim' (or whatever it's called) but I genuinely don't think anything good will come out of the west, and that if they had a 'kill a random innocent child and get slightly richer and more power' button, they would pay a starving African child 0.01$ an hour to continuously press it for them, and hire a guard to leash them if they get tired.
(the guard part doesn't financially make sense as well as not using a machine to press the button, but you get the idea that I hate them so bad I would execute many of them if I had the ability)
So you're trying to tell me the governments of the west will honor their word when it's against their interests? when did that ever happen?
(The tldr is the last paragraph)
Edit : yes, they might send "supplies" and tell Isreal that what it's doing is "bad", but that's just talk, the real action is being committed against the only ones who took actions, the (organization in Yemen).
I don't fully agree with that group, but they're the only ones who took real action, unlike everyone else who just watched and told Isreal: "stop, please, it's not good".
When Russia invaded Ukraine*, every "Civilized" nation took immediate action, cut trade, sent weapons and sent financial support, even though Ukraine originally belonged to the Russian entity, trying to reclaim it was seen as tearing the flesh of all that's good and holy in this world.
*: A European, white, non-islamic nation.
But when it comes to Isreal, whom the US acknowledged as a sovereign state 5 minute after its conception, even though it's based in land it has no right to exist in, by genocing a population** undeserving of being killed. And not only that, Isreal was supported fully by the US and the EU in its every move, not necessarily in the methods, but in the goal, Giving the Jews what they want, a land from the Nile to that other river, and making the poor nations pay for it, as all others are "deserving of being slaves to them - Jews." as they say, ignoring the religious aspect of this conflict is ignorant.
** A middle-eastern, Arab, not so white, Islamic population.
A while back I heard something on lemmy about France supporting Isreal duo to its debt to the Jews for playing a role in the holocaust or something, while the holocaust is possibly the most over-exaggerated event in modern history, in death numbers and whatnot, it's still a horrible event, yet what that writer failed to say is that France, along with the US and many European nations, are guilty of many similar acts against the Muslim Middle Eastern population.
The west are currently controlling every Arab state by having important government members - literally the entire government in many cases - consist of puppets they control, by threatening them - the puppets - with their crimes against humanity, by which they can turn the world media on the at any moment and strip them of their power, and offering to point the attention of the world media away from them.
People on lemmy here like to complain about the 1%, the 0.01% and modern capitalism and billionaires, the leaders of the government ARE the 0.001% you morons, they don't have hearts, worship money, and don't mind doing anything to maintain their power, yes they are pretending to support Gaza even before the war to maintain public support, but the supplies they were sending before the war were just enough for the now-homeless (duo to the occupation) Palestinian population to just die slowly enough for it to not attract public attention. They were quick to blame Hamas for "stealing supplies meant to support the poor population" THAT'S how you support a homeless population, by giving them guns to fight for their rights and freedom.
(the last sentence reminded me of what someone told me about a Rambo movie, IDK anything a ku Rambo don't quote me on that)
1 - Proton experimental is a moving target and is rapidly evolving.
2 - What exactly is your GPU, and maybe tell us your pc specs (even if it's just through the info tab in the settings menu) (also put it in your post for others)
3 - that sometimes happens to me when using gnome-software (which Ubuntu uses? or something really similar?), I usually just surrender and use the terminal, not like I install more than 1 thing in a normal month anyway.
4 - if the issue is with proton, then other games wouldn't work. (try running a very light, single player game to test proton, many F2P games under 20 mbs exist on Steam)
You press play and it goes off after a while, you have problems with vulkan, you have an old PC.
I had this exact issue before, try tuning an older version of proton, as newer versions require more recent vulkan versions, which your PC most likely doesn't support.
steam auto updates to the latest proton version usually, that's probably why.
The lightest, this makes makes me think, what actually constitutes a gaming laptop, I have an old Intel 530 laptop, I can play Abe's Oddysee on it, and probably fallout, which makes it a gaming laptop, why do gamers chase the latest hardware when for mere cents they can get a good experience, an experience which was a dream to many.
And the US governemnt by extension, and actually many "Civilized" governments across the EU and the americas, in addition to the Arab leaders, it's not like we didn't know how terrible they are, but times of need reveal true selves, very clearly, to the public.
Supporters of an act, financially or morally, are 2nd only to the actor.
Edit : by morally I mean through acceptance and encouragement.
From your wording and the upvote ratio, I conclude this conversation is going nowhere, I hope you find the right path.
