In Canada, after that image is plastered everywhere? I sure as hell hope it hurts him.

You vastly overestimate the average person's technical ability.

Why not both?

I use syncthing for transferring files around my local network, and nextcloud for sharing files with others.

IMO these are related tools but designed with very separate use cases. Use the right tool for the job.

Maybe in the sense that it's needed in the first place. But in reality it's probably the single most lucrative investment we could make.

I hear you. It's super frustrating when buying, but at the same time you can get like double the price for your shit on marketplace while selling. That's a tough one to give up, even for the staunchest of meta critics.

I'm not going to switch away from them just yet... But I am going to start using an address with my own domain. My only regret is not doing this from the beginning.

That's a good point. I should have said "indistinguishable after some tinkering". You raise a valid complaint, though it's not a deal breaker for me.

Why is it a bad way to handle things?

I have an alias set up and SDKs enabled. The experience is indistinguishable from a regular install. But you could also layer it onto the os image or install it in user space if you don't like flatpaks for the extra resource usage or something. That's a complete non issue for me though.

I do my main development with Bazzite. I use the Neovim flatpak for my editor and toolbox for builds and such.

Nah. I'll always play what I find interesting but I'll go by price, not generation (as a non console gamer, what even is a generation?). Played lots of early access / new releases this year, but never spent over $25 on any single game.

Europe would definitely not come to our aid. There's nothing to gain, and everything to lose. Plus they barely came to the aid of a country being invaded in their own back yard. If they fear provoking Russia's ire, they wouldn't touch the US with a ten thousand foot pole.

Even if they did declare war against the US, it wouldn't tip the balance of power.

No upside to Americans maybe. Tweets like this are intended for the electorates of their respective countries, where hating on Trump is still a very easy way to win favourability.

I don't think there was any noteworthy news in that time.

Just one. Playing two at once would be tricky, I'd need like a second computer or something. And switching back and fourth between keyboards really quickly would probably lead to lots of deaths.

I don't buy this. He's driven by his ego more so than money at this point. Influencing world events makes him feel warm and fuzzy.

This is c/patientgamers, so I assume that first reason wouldn't bother most of us here. I'm curious about the spyware assertion though. Were they caught doing something shady?

I typically pay $20 or less for my jeans. Anything more than that I consider a ripoff.
