Oh my GOD, the dude on the far right looks like he had his face turned inside out and stuffed like a third grader’s first ever sewing project. Somebody at Build-A-Fash forgot to do QA.

Please, God, if you’re listening, do something really really funny with this.
62·2 days agoOoh, a Russian troll! Quick, whack him with the hammer, they’re worth extra bonus points!
Damn you, McCarthy! Your imaginary list of communists doomed us all!!
Dennis! There’s some lovely filth down 'ere!
Do you like cancer research? How about fighting forest fires? Averting mid-air plane collisions?
DOGE sure hates all of those.
I think we’re headed for balkanization. We’re seeing the breakup of the USSR all over again.
Some author openly claims to be a terf. If she calls herself a bigot, then call her a bigot. 🤷
God, the ALSA-PulseAudio Wars never fucking ended, and we’ve been stranded ever since. It’s the Wayland/X11 windowing struggle all over again!
“This package uses a legacy windowing system, and is insecure.” You know who else is insecure? The devs!
On non-Ubuntu distros, for ProtonVPN, I’ve had better luck using their CLI interface. It works just fine, it just means learning a bit of the terminal. I like the automatic killswitch, especially since I’m a habitual pirate.
Proton advises against using third-party repos, which I feel is sensible. But for all other options, I tend to appreciate the plug-and-play nature of .deb and .rpm packages and Flatpaks. Flatseal puts my paranoia at ease. Set and forget. :)
Proton’s a bit behind the curve, feature-wise, but I trust them more than I trust NordVPN or ExpressVPN. For one, their advertisement blocker ACTUALLY works as advertised.
AMD has open-source drivers that play better with Linux distros. If you’re running post-2020 Intel hardware, good luck.
GoG install scripts are actually community-submitted and not actively maintained. You might have some luck with Lutris or WINE. Sometimes, Bottles or even PlayOnLinux are compatible. WINE actually lets you emulate older editions of Windows for PC games. Sometimes, all you have to do is switch the toggle from ‘Win7’ to ‘Win95’, and it works.

It’s a headache, and a loooot of googling, trying to get games to run. But with Proton’s introduction, it’s gotten a lot easier to get things to run without pulling out wads of hair.
But you’re right, if the app is non-native? Have fun breaking out the thumbscrews, because ya better like pain. 😂
Less user-hostile? Maybe. Hostile to the tech-illiterate? Oh, absolutely. There is no handholding. There are no guardrails. You wanna “sudo rm -fr / --no-preserve-root”? o7, gamer.
“Put it back! I liked it better when it was broken!”
Jokes aside though, have you SEEN GamesDoneQuick’s Triforce% TAS? Jesus Turing Christ, that was amazing. It felt like the gaming equivalent of watching the Lunar Landing.
6·8 days agoPeople have been shitting on that lizard-faced freak since Facebook’s first flame wars between McCain and Obama supporters.
Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written.
Of course he does, it reminds him of home.
The eternal enemy of Dudes and Dudeism everywhere: Nihilists and Nihilism.
The Dude abides. ✌️
Much like the Dude himself, who is surrounded by people who are way too wound up in the world around him, you gotta remember. Sometimes, there’s a lot of weird ones, like sexy feminists who swing naked from ceilings to paint, or your whacked-out 'Nam vet buddy who’s just never moved on. And then there are assholes who piss on your rug, toe-severing German Nihilists, and rich old geezers who concoct kidnapping schemes to hide that he’s been stealing from impoverished kids. And, of course, fascists. Lots and lots of fascists.
Remember, the enemy of Dudeism is Nihilism. And fascists are, usually, either Nihilists, scammers, rug-pissers, or other zealots.
Right. Sure. Keep shilling for daddy Putin, you’ll get your promotion for sure if you keep it up.
Fuck you, Russia STARTED this fight. Imperialism and capitalism are the god damn problem, and here you are enabling them both.
