Just replace “it” in the first speech bubble with “your partner” and the humor kind of sort of makes sense.

You can use an extension like Libredirect to redirect you to a redlib instance. Minimal format frontend for reddit, no ads. Here is a list of instances.

On Android mobile, you can install the Libredirect extension on certain Firefox versions like IronFox. There’s also apps like Stealth.

Until the vast majority go out and become their own personal Luigi Mangione, nothing will get done.

The corruption isn’t just systemic, it’s integral.

You want to end corruption? Then you must end the whole nation.

It is written in C#/.Net, which depending on your Linux system can be a bit of a hassle to set up (like me on Gentoo).

That said, the Flatpak version is incredibly easy to get up and running no matter which distro you use, which is what I opted for.

Yeah that’s fair.

Vintage Story is worth looking into imho.

That game has consumed multiple glorious years of my life. Amazing game with an amazing modding community.

I’m not one to blame the victim…but when you repeatedly walk back into the pedophile’s house, bend over, drop your panties, and loudly proclaim to the world, “Surely I shan’t be raped this time!” I start to blame you.

At Fate’s End looks beautiful and if Spiritfarer is any indication, it’s going to have a tearjerker story that warms the heart.

Other than that The Adventures of Elliot looks promising for a modern JRPG.

Law Enforcement. Military personnel.

I think they dropped the /s on their way out.

Apology? Lol, my dude. You’re talking about conservatives, American conservatives.

They wouldn’t apologize even if they were being flayed and burned repeatedly for all eternity in Hell.

Right now, as we speak, Charlie Kirk, in between screams, is probably still trying to debate why DEI is actually just white replacement.

Cuz assholes never apologize, never change their minds, and ultimately Charlie Kirk was cured of his fascism the only way fascism is ever cured.

I have no love for this retired pig either. ACAB and all that shit. But hey, anything that encourages pissing on Charlie Kirk’s grave, I’ll fucking take it.

Yeah, I’ve used systemd-less distros on desktops and servers for 9 years now. I know systemd can do cron related work too, but it’s harder to come up with comedic wordplay around it. Yet another reason to not use systemd, lol.

certbot? cronjob? certcronbotjob…croncertjobbot…certjobcronbot…cronbotcertjob…

Let’s be clear to all billionaires and their sycophantic accolades. You cannot hide from the masses. Your islands, your bunkers, your space stations. None of it matters. Wherever you are, we have already found you, we have already eaten your flesh, we have already ensured your genetic line does not get to survive. Fuck you and yours forever.

Nice try, but the legend of Windows 11 is just that, a legend…a story we tell young children when we want them to behave themselves… right?..

Along with every other technology related problem. 👏Done and done!

I don’t disagree with you. It is worth pointing out though that Brendan Eich, the founder of the Brave Browser, is also the cofounder of The Mozilla Foundation, and the creator of the JavaScript Programming language.

So if you really want to boycott the homophobe, boycott Brave, Firefox, all Firefox forks, and JavaScript.

I’m a self taught web dev whose only had a single fullstack job under their belt, some charity coding at a nonprofit, and plenty of group and solo projects.

I’ve used ChatGPT mainly to code and also teach myself Calculus as I get ready to go back to school and get a CS degree to hopefully help my chances at getting some work. I’m not saying as a tool on its own, LLMs aren’t useful.

But I do use these LLMs with a severe sense of guilt considering:

• The plight of Kenyan workers who got paid almost nothing to have their mental health absolutely violated while setting up initial training parameters around abusive/sensitive training material

• The many teens who have committed suicide while being influenced by LLM advice

• The massive amount of land, water, and power that is being utilized to put it all together

• The massive amount of carbon emissions that the data centers that power these LLMs releases into the atmosphere, exacerbating an already dire climate crisis

• The massive amount of scraped data that was stolen without anyone’s consent in order to train it

• The fact that our entire world economy seems to now rely solely on AI companies and NVIDIA’s stock price going up ad infinitum even if their economic metrics make no sense at all

• The exacerbation of the already existing education crisis where both students and teachers are offloading critical thinking skills

• The destruction of the useful search engine, which honestly feels preordained by the ensuing enshittification of search due to invasive advertisement/marketing strategies

And honestly that isn’t even scratching the surface.

So yeah…I got some guilt using this crap. But hey, at least I got to live another day in the torment nexus.

EDIT: Removal of massive doomerism rant towards the end there.

It depends on where you got the game and how familiar you are with Wine, Proton, DXVK, etc. And yeah, the command line is kind of helpful for most things Linux, including running pirated games.

I got a pirated version of Cyberpunk 2077 running on Linux. I had purchased the game on Steam, but hated that when I was offline I couldn’t play and even though Steam has an offline version, I figured fuck it, I’m tech savvy, how hard can it be? It was…not easy, but not the hardest thing I’ve done on Linux. I pretty much followed this reddit guide.

I’d look for a different launcher than Lutris these days since the Dev started introducing AI code into his source, but there’s options in that regard and really, the big thing is understanding Wine, Wine prefixes, and Proton.

I haven’t done this for most games as I just like to purchase my games these days, but it was a fun challenge. I have no idea how difficult this is on Windows as its been almost a decade for me Windows free, but hey, if you’ve got the gumption, its not too hard.
