If you play PC games (and already familiar with Fedora), check out Bazzite. The whole immutable thing is an adjustment, but I really like it.
Though not really an adjustment from Windows, more of an adjustment if you’re coming from another Linux distro.
Oh. Are we supposed to feel bad about this?
I truly have no idea what that means… Unrelated, but I recently got into a tragic boat accident.
Yeah and you’re a fool if you use Bitcoin for that purpose
in a car-ramming attack in Zhuhai, motivated by frustration over his divorce.
This shit really is universal, huh?
This is already a motive for states/municipalities to try to have federal prisons built in their borders. The inmates get counted in the census and their numbers are used to determine appropriations, and they don’t vote so you don’t even have to pretend to care about them!
Hard to tell since that’s literally what people are saying unironically.
No they’re not. Don’t buy that bullshit. There may be a couple (relatively unimportant) issues that they leave to the states, like cannabis legalization, so it looks like they’re doing this. But in reality, they will use the federal government as a cudgel against states that do things they don’t like.
They’re already talking about making aid to CA wildfires conditional. These people have no ethics, no scruples, and lack basic empathy.
Or you could be like the IDF and just run the bulldozers over already dead bodies so that they’re unrecognizable to their relatives.
Edit: live bodies too… I wasn’t sure and didn’t want to make the claim. I should have known. When it comes to the IDF, the cruelty knows no bounds.
Also, it’s a bummer that there’s no eternal punishment waiting for him.
LOL, gold… What year is it? If someone tried to give me gold for food in a global meltdown situation, I would tell them to fuck off.
So it sounds like the problem with the game is shitty writing. Not anything about it being “political.”
Breaking the fourth wall, and/or getting meta is nothing new to video games (or like, literally any other form of media). Some people like it, some people don’t.
But that is not a political issue…
Games with literal politics as integral parts of the plot, and the thing that melts these snowflakes is the existence of a gay person. Something that’s only “political” if you’re a complete piece of shit.
It’s only recently that Italians have been considered “white.” So the Super Mario Bros. series is political and woke I guess?
Then there’s The Last of Us Pt. 2. One of the best narrative games I have ever played, and probably the best of that year (I don’t remember what else came out). Just an amazing experience with a fantastic, deep, heart-wrenching story…
Remember how that one turned out? I’m pretty sure at least one voice actor was getting literal death threats for voicing a non gender-conforming main character… Just think about how fucking stupid that is for a moment. The person reading a script into a microphone… That would be like threatening Sebastian Stan because he played Trump in that shitty movie.
This is why we can’t have nice things. I love video games, but “gamers” are just embarrassing. I don’t want to be associated with that shit.
And where do you “deport” people who were born in America (once they end birthright citizenship and/or just don’t care)?
They’ve already purchased land in TX and NJ (disappointing af, c’mon Murphy) for “detention facilities.” If needed, they could use the same law that was used to intern US citizens of Japanese descent during WW2. There is also recent precedent for separating families and putting kids in cages.
By the way, they told us this was going to happen like at least a year ago. Explicitly. I’m not talking vague insinuations, they spelled it out in Project 2025. This should be a surprise to no one.
This is going to get very bad.
As long as he hurts the right people…
Snowflakes are so upset that they have to see or interact with LGBTQ character(s) in video games, because to them their very existence is “political.”
Same as saying a game is “political” because there’s a black person in it.
including gay characters is only political if it is something you object to. Are black characters also political?
Exactly. I’m never even aware of these controversies until I see people whining about it online, because a gay or trans character in a video game means literally nothing to me. Why would I care?
And there are people that it does matter to; representation in media is important. So that’s just all positives and no negatives in my mind.
Also makes for more variety in plots and settings. Win/win/win.
I’ve been running it on my main PC (framework laptop) for I dunno 6 months now? And it’s been great.
Distrobox is dope, and “rpm-ostree” is super useful.
Aside from that, it’s incredibly stable. And games pretty much just work.
I’ve seen people say that “it’s not for tech people, but good for newbies,” and I have to disagree. Just because it works most of the time without having to tinker (but you can if you want) doesn’t mean it’s for noobs… That’s how your PC is supposed to function.
