I haven't found anything better than Whiskey. It reminds me of the finnicky Wine days before Proton, but so far the problems I encountered are purely cosmetic. Granted, I only tried pixely indie stuff.

I don't, my personal machine runs Linux

It works OK. Steam itself is super sluggish under it.

Native Steam + Proton is just better.

Hey, nobody disputes that.

Doesn't mean macOS has a comparable portfolio of games it runs. Proton just works better than crossover or Whiskey or whatever.

No it's not, that's why some smart people are starring by defining a more interesting concept: educability.

Huh, I found it to be so much easier to set up than nginx that I wrote the devs a little thank you message

Because that's how the spoiler effect works.The more support a leftist third party gets, the easier it is for the Republicans to win.

I can't tell you how to fix it, but I can tell you that an election with 10% Socialists, 40% Dems, and 50% Reps will scare people away from voting Socialists.

At least as long as MAGA is a thing and the Dems aren't seen as totally corrupt and basically the same as the Reps by the general public. And believe me: they aren't.

I'm not doing anything like that, the will never be public support for a socialist candidate in the US without first changing the voting system.

I wish it wasn't like that but I'm convinced it is.

Meanwhile you “peacefully” increase the probability that the guy who destroyed women's reproductive rights gets voted in again.

I say you should help punish the Republicans for MAGA and once they try a moderate candidate again you can vote third party. But don't ignore the consequences of your actions.

Hilarious. Let me think about who I'd vote for if I was US-American. The Fascist or the at least slightly socially progressive neoliberals? It's anyone's guess really. NO. Of course the Dems, fucking obviously.

So if I was US-American and also hit in the head enough to consider voting for third party in a country with a first-past-the-post voting system, I'd not vote for the Dems as a result.

This is called the spoiler effect. This makes her a spoiler candidate, no matter her intention.

That's just completely wrong. Just try e.g. replacing the journald backend with the old text based syslog, and not only will you discover that is possible (which directly contradicts what you just said), it's also easy!

The only thing I liked was arch's pretty boot sequence … which I stared at for a while because SysV init was so slow.

systemd, not SystemD, or system d.

But yeah, wonderful talk!

Because they just have their own brain chemistry as the basis of it whereas the above comment clearly states:

Rust has proven empirically that the tradeoff between performance and safety doesn't need to exist.

Which is truth. And it's much easier to base a coherent argument on truth rather than vibes.

What kind of dumb instructions are that?

Stirring exactly once is enough in most cases.

And proceeds to not pretend that he does.

That's at least four levels of credibility more than I expected.

I had a female boss.

Adjective is fine, using it as noun is icky

Yeah, but a satirical one, not one to be taken literally.

Hey, I'm sorry I didn't get a PhD in “Lemmy instance vibe checking” before I chose to go for the devs’ instance.

Fuck Trump, and fuck generalizing tribalism.

Whoever dies first loses.
