I’ll defend Apple as being the least shitty of the big tech giants but I can’t defend this.

You can defend settler colonialism?

Absolutely. There are iOS apps and games I bought that don’t run anymore and Apple wants us to accept this as normal.

having a monopoly isn’t illegal but abusing it is

I like Steam but come on, they are more profitable per employee than Apple. They are clearly not hurting even if I download my games over and over.

There’s Xbox, but when that’s the alternative it is clear why Steam still dominates

Do you want to know how it works internally or how you can administer it more effectively? The two are very different. I was always more interested in the former than the latter and at one point read through Linux kernel 0.1 source code. I want to know how a kernel and a file system works but I can’t be bothered with configurations and shell scripts. The good thing about Linux whatever you want, the resources and the source are available.

Good luck.

I guess my end goal is to be able to comfortably install and use arch Linux with my own customization’s and be able to fix it when things go wrong.

Why? I have been using Linux for nearly two decades and I am perfectly content with a low-config distro and desktop environment. You don’t have to use Arch but if you insist get a Steam Deck.

The US is very far right though. In the US something like this will be used to punish women seeking abortions.

But the government can already accomplish the latter without needing the former. It does make their job much easier.

E1b1b1 is common in some Afroasiatic speakers. It probably traces back to the Neolithic Levantine farmers who spread around the Mediterranean but only a guess.

We are witnessing two competing forms of racism. Which one will prevail? Exclusionary or exploitative?

USB4 supports DP and TB3.

Wikipedia is a good resource

Imagine using a mirror the see someone coming around the corner.

I don’t need a mirror to see someone coming from behind me in Super Mario Bros. Sometimes it is a matter of perspective, point of view and camera angle.

On the downside, you can’t tell what the port supports by just looking at it.

Good 👍 I just hope nothing replaces USB-C anytime soon

Change that last to “Time to play some 8bit games upscaled to 4K”

I had a lot of fun playing Romancing Saga 2 and Ara Fell recently. Sometimes games can be more immersive by not having high fidelity graphics.

The first step would be not to build them in disaster prone areas with hurricanes or earthquakes, and the next would be store the waste in areas with little value like the vast deserts.

What’s wrong with nuclear energy?
