Will Microsoft also bend the knee to China for gaming $$$? We'll soon find out.

Gaming is much better on Linux thanks to Steam, but having lots of problems with more recent games and their cursed launchers. I try and remember that Gen X had to figure all this stuff out with early versions of Windows and I should resurrect the same determination that got me through back then... but I'd be lying if I said it was easy.

It 'can' be overwhelming, yes. I've never found, however, so MANY online guides that literally tell you step by step what to enter in the terminal window to succeed. There's always a learning curve, it's just about whether or not you want to pay Windows every month to avoid figuring this out. This is why I mentioned Mint specifically, btw. It's the most user friendly.

I'm in the same boat and have been waffling about it for some time. At least we kind of have a target for when our research needs to be done.

The same sources of cleaner energy that the oil companies have given up on and lied about?

Exactly. The poorer their behavior, the more toys get taken away.

Maybe this will finally convince the world to move to Linux Mint

Or you could just stop subsidizing them and save about 4.8 billion a year. Why do we have to add more middlemen to document and collect taxes?

You know, I really really try not to judge a book by its cover, but the more I hear about Gaetz the more it sinks in that I could not identify another human being that looks more like an actual devil.

I had to really work with it to find a handful that actually showed video. Even then, they're hit and miss, sometimes requiring pings to remind them that I exist.

Then you get to the throttling...

I mean, the person who wrote the thing literally did stumble on it by accident xD

But I know what you meant to say. THIS ISN'T A SPOILER PEOPLE! They literally didn't provide a video because it might SPOIL the ending!

Totally agree. Sitting there watching in the theatre was the best unexpected cinematic pleasure ever. Just sheer jaw dropping wide eyed fascination.

Except nobody wants to buy it.... that's the problem. Many of them have long term leases that they can't break without significant penalties.

I see this on all kinds of articles, every day.

What web version? I thought they only had phone apps.

Unexpected Mass Effect, but appreciated nonetheless

And if I wasn't sold on Signal I am now.

Cold turkey.

And then raise prices after because, "We have to account for that loss!"
