French fries are a food that I won't be sad for losing from my life. They are unhealthy and always the thrifty side dish option, fried in horrible oils reused to oblivion. They are a staple only because they are quick to make with the right equipment and in large quantities on demand. Aka, they are fast food. And fast food in the US is arguably a cartel. Thankfully, I'm not in the US, I'm in Greece, with a very different fast food market, culinary tradition, and definition for a fried potato. If they want to corner the market on McDonald's style fries, fine I don't care. I enjoy my soft potato fries, gnocchi, my jacket potatoes, my rice better anyway.
Symbolism? There's no well thought out and clear symbol. It's just an asshole who thinks going up in flames "sends a message (jokerMewing.jpg)". A well thought out symbol is more like Luigi Mangione's Deny Defend Depose.
This guy was promised a good life for the simple man by the republicans and he was repeatedly backstabbed, and that made him angry. Yet he stayed with them till the end at which point he couldn't imagine himself not being the MAGA Rambo wannabe he thought himself to be. That's what angry and dumb people do.
Gnome is not really touch-centric, it's more keyboard-crentric. Sure, the activity overview is great for touch. It's even greater for the keyboard though. And I don't like using the mouse a lot anyway
You're missing the point. DRM free is something I respect, both as a Linux gamer and as a gamer overall. But what's important is that a game runs before I get to bitch about DRM. Valve has done strides to make games work on Linux and I respect that. What I'm saying is GOG could do it too and it would fit their business model more than Valve's.
Let's be honest, this was apparent for a long time. Steam, a centralised platform, has been making strides in Linux gaming and has been making innovation after innovation together with its steam deck. Gog, a forefront to freedom in gaming, barely did anything for the Linux gaming scene. No innovation either. Its just the simple (and well needed) premise of no DRM. It's necessary, but not enough. It didn't cater to its niche, it just committing to creating one under a premise. That's not how you go forward. How does this connect to bad management? Well, I think that with good management gog would make different moves. And wouldn't rest on its laurels so much.
