I go on protondb and see if people regularly have problems. If not I check to see if someone has the same GPU. Then I try whatever trick they have there. Then I try switching to an X11 session instead of wayland.

If there's a launcher like rockstar I search for that specifically.

Patents have an expiry for a reason and the expiry date is pretty generous IMO. It's thought as "Startup x can invent and make money off it but after it the market should take over so further improvements can be made." Imagine if they patented CRISPR Cas9 or the first DNA sequencing method. It would limit science for the entire time of the expiry but not after.

Claiming invention patent for the pokeballs more than 20 years after the game came out is absurd. They can keep the brand, trademark and IP for their weirdly long time but innovations should become public so the market can continue innovating.

So are they next going after unicorns that you capture?

Very relatable

Correct, including 0% as a part of the answers would make 0% a wrong answer.

You can never answer this question correctly. If the correct answer is 25% there's a 50% chance you guess correctly but that would make the 25% wrong.

But if the answer is the 50% then it implies that 25% is correct which implies that 50% is wrong.

We reach a contradiction for both 25% and 50% making the correct answer to make the whole statement truthy 0%.

I'd spend more time playing guitar and chess and spend more time with my son.

FUCK YEAH, YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP

It's the fork in the background that's unacceptable

It's not, Vim is GNU. I listed some of them as "I use open source and proprietary" things. Jellyfin is open source also.

1 looks decent.

It's a trick question, they're all bad.

(I have autism)

As an example I'm on Linux for a decade now but I also use proprietary services. I use Jellyfin and Netflix, Vim and Jetbrains IDEs, Chess.com instead of Lichess, WhatsApp instead of Matrix.

Sometimes the value proposition does it for me, sometimes it's the network effect. I've ditched reddit because I like Lemmy more but I can see how someone wants to stay in touch with their niche communities that don't really exist on Lemmy. Probably some people use both.

Pope Francis was a great pope.

He removed the necessity to get authorization from the Vatican in sexual abuse cases.

Allowed some women to vote in the Synod of Bishops.

Took a stance against death penalties.

Apologised for Catholic Church actions against indigenous Canadians.

Generally whenever he took a stance it was the morally right one.

The Catholic Church is still corrupt but Pope Francis was a great man.

That will be tricky since the king of the popes is the Holy See which is the throne instead of the person that "delegates" authority to the pope.

Skyblivion better

For further reading on this agreement it's called the Bretton Woods agreement if anyone is interested.

I had a pentel pen and it was just amazing. Very good for finger spinning

For people who don't know Ken Cheng is satire and making fun of LinkedIn people.
