  • Until I can run special K or RTX HDR to inject HDR into games that don’t support it I’m not going to switch to Linux on my main gaming PC. Its hooked up to my Nice OLED TV in my living room and games look too damn good with HDR to give that up for Linux. Yes I know HDR works on Linux now. But it only works with games that support HDR and the only “Auto HDR” solution I’ve found is a janky reshade plugin that only works with dx11 games and doesn’t really produce very good results. I’m really holding out hope that valve figures out a nice auto HDR solution they can build into gamescope.

    Um. This is just flatly not true. For starters, according to the Chinese government themselves only 23 military personel died. And those casualties only occurred AFTER the peoples liberation army started using live rounds against protesters the evening of June the 3rd 1989. And the 300 number is very conservative. The actual number is likely in the thousands.

    You very clearly are either a troll just making things up or you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about

    Are you seriously comparing the Tiananmen square massacre where at least 300 peaceful protesters/students were killed by the Chinese military to the Jan 6 riots where there were only two people killed? (Technically there were 5 deaths but three of them were either overdoses or natural causes). One was a cop killed by the rioters and another was a lady warned several times that she was going to be shot if she continued to break into the capital building.

    These are not even remotely similar situations.



  • To be honest I actually don’t think it sounds all that bad. If it were forced military service I’d think it was terrible. But it sounds like you can just do community service instead of the military training. And it’s just one weekend a month for twelve months. Given how much we’re disconnected from our communities these days I think making sure kids engage with their communities in this way could actually be really beneficial.

    That’s just thinking about this one policy in a Vaccuum though. I know nothing about British politics so I have no clue what other awful and heinous shit this party may or may not be into.





  • Well, it’s a little more complex than that. he’s the good guy in macro scale. (if you believe his own presciece. Which is admittedly dubious due to the obvious conflict of interest. But Paul shows on numerous occasions that he can indeed see the future.) everything Paul did (and by extension everything Leto II did) was to guarantee humanity’s survival as a species. Paul essentially sacrificed billions of lives across the empire in order to ensure humanity wouldn’t go extinct. That being said he is definitely not the good guy to the Fremen. He and Leto II fucked that group of people over big time.
