I used NoMachine for the better part of a year, and I’d agree it’s the best of the options. It still sucks.

The problem with this pro-Linux argument, that only specific use-cases need Windows, is that also now applies to Linux. Probably 90% of people can do everything they need to with a tablet or phone. Even your listed day to day tasks are fairly specialized.

I personally prefer to run my daily driver as a vm, so I can remote into from all of my frontends. I tried to tough it out with Linux for over a year like that, using multiple different remote solutions. Every single one felt like using a machine from the 90’s. Just not anywhere close to acceptable by today’s standards.

Thanks to the steam deck standardizing support, Linux is probably fine for most pc gamers. Doesn’t work for me, but I use some very specific third party tools and hardware peripherals for simulators.

Why should they be focused on it? Xbox is now just a slimmed down Windows pc. You can play the exact same games on a pc, with access to the same storefront.

What’s the problem exactly?

Most of my machines are Linux, and I can say the desktop experience still doesn’t match up with Windows. And there’s still so many third party tools that are Windows exclusive.

I would love to be able to shut down every Windows machine I have for good, and I’ve tried, but there are simply many things that still require Windows. Stop gaslighting people, and acting like they’re staying by choice.

If all you need is web based stuff, why even go to Linux? That’s overkill. Just use a tablet.

I just wish Linux remote desktop support wasn't absolute dogshit.

Womp womp. God forbid politicians oppose genocide.

Germany’s going hard right again. Severe crackdowns on civil rights are escalating. They’re arresting people for posting criticism of political efforts online, ramping up their military, pushing far-right politicians into office, etc.

Time to eradicate the Nazis again.

Damn dude. The AAA games are still expensive, but I don’t think I’ve seen these kinda sales for indy/niche games in years.

Probably not a great economic indicator though.

What is “one of the first” supposed to mean? It’s definitely not the first. Weird way to put it.

You’re repeating Israeli lies. So you’re either surreptitiously supporting Israel, or you’re serving as a useful idiot.

While there are religious extremists in Iran, their level of influence on Iranian culture is not anywhere near what you’re saying. You’re just repeating western propaganda.

They did have a controversial new dress code law that was supposed to go into effect at the end of last year, but it was blocked for being to extreme and vague.

However, my state just forced a brain dead woman to incubate a baby against the family’s will. So I’m inclined to agree with those saying the religious extremists exercise greater control in the US than Iran, and by your standards that means they should bomb us. Because I guess you think killing people is equal to freeing them.

What did Iran do? Seems like all the shitty is on one side.

I get exactly the point you’re trying to make. You see the cruelty as excusable, as long as they do the proper paperwork. It’s the lack of respect for process that offends you. Not the thousands of lives ruined.

You just have such a fucked moral compass that you see this position as logical and in line with your worldview.

Ahh. So Biden only attacked the right class of subhumans.

There’s the classic neoliberalism. The scale of human suffering is negligible, so long as it’s the right kind of humans.

The point is you’re not considering the actual, literal scale. You’re judging by how it feels.

Biden deported 250% more people than Trump’s first term. Stephen Miller recently went out a shouting rant at ICE heads for barely keeping pace with Biden’s numbers.

So no, you don’t care about the actual scale. You care about the scale of how intensely the media reporting makes you feel about it. There’s nothing mathematical about it. There’s no measurement. Which is why you don’t care when it’s a Democrat.

I’m literally pointing to the exact same problems. You just only care when a Republican does it.

Yeah, I’m familiar with this idiocy. I had to hear months of election propaganda about how a Democrat supported genocide was preferred to a Republican led genocide. And Democrat mass deportation is better than Republican mass deportation. Etc.

This sounds exactly like the drivel the GOP supporters spout to make excuses. Y’all really don’t see how much alike you are, and it’s wild.

No, they have a method of laying the plumbing and electrical work with it. They’ve been doing this for damn near 10 years already, which is why I’m surprised they haven’t expanded into more building.

Especially if it’s anti-AI drivel. People eat this crap up.
