No I agree with who is problematic. My comment was in reference to the solution being both forced on to women and under the assumption that courtship (sex) is the only way to reach those men.

I’m not an apologist, but when people are, from birth mind you, molded and made to be a certain way how are they supposed to behave? When they do reach an age where they have some beginnings of autonomy and critical thinking skills what happens? Phase 2 begins in the form of rightwing bullshittery. Couple all that with no sense of identity or value and you’ve got a recipe for destruction. Very few men can break free from all that. They’re, we’re, victims and villains.

I don’t know if it’s the mdd but I’m kinda glad humans are ending.

You don’t like cishet men much, do you?

2 years is a long time. Driver issues are few and far between these days. Multi monitor support has greatly improved as well. I can’t help you with your software requirements if you’re stuck using proprietary programs like Photoshop. I can tell you that as a professional graphic designer and illustrator the alternatives to “industry standard” software are powerful and arguably better (Inkscape) on the Linux side. It does take time and effort to retrain years of shortcuts and workflow experience, but it’s definitely doable.

Maybe one day when you’re feeling adventurous give Linux another shot. I know for a lot of people the ethics of open source vs closed aren’t really important, but it’s still fun to see what else is out there.

I’m not sure I understand the question. Pipewire is the audio server, replacing Pulse. It does have frontends that allow routing from different devices, channels, software etc and distributions that are using Pipewire now have interface elements that allow you to control application use of audio devices. I’m not sure I answered your question at all lol.

Session musicians are often at the top of the game from a technical standpoint. Pop stars are usually just nice looking.

Ah I see. Pipewire has made audio production a lot easier with far fewer latency issues. I know the FL Studio crowd is pretty diehard, but if you’re ever feeling adventurous there’s a lot more in the audio space now. I personally use Reaper to record my guitar through my Audient interface and have no issues. I’m not much of a beats and loops guy though so YMMV.

Another vote for Hollow Knight. Amazing game.

I used to have a theory that ghosts weren’t spirits of the dead, but a momentary overlap of realities on loop at a certain place and what was seen was a glimpse of that reality. This only works of time is a singular experience happening all at once. I am not smart.

Catholics… If hell exists it’ll be full of 'em.

What can’t you do on Linux that keeps you on Windows or Mac?

Not caring is why these corporations have the power they do.

I always find it odd that posts like this get any downvotes at all. Like, are people really that in love with Windows and or Microsoft?

This is the only correct answer.

My father, a Vietnam vet, has been 100% service connected disabled since 1996 for hearing loss in one ear attributed to his position as a gunner on a tank. He isn’t deaf and has played in country bands for most of his life. I once researched the amounts he’d receive from 1996 to now with near yearly increases. A man that bought his home and paid for it for at $600 in 1974 has received nearly a million dollars since 96.

Even the top image sucks.

Video games as a hobby is one of the cheapest ones out there. As far as having time, in my experience people that say they don’t have time for it can’t see the time they spend doing anything else as time spent.

You get it. Apple fans, which by the way I think it’s stupid to be a fan of a product/company, can’t admit that the devices they buy and the company that makes them have flaws. They view the marketing as objective truths when the objective truth is Apple is first and foremost a very profitable company and those profits matter above everything else. They aren’t a “good” company and will follow the path that leads them to profits. Taking a single chip and making 30 devices that all do different things is proof of that.

Alright then.

I’m not treating you like a dumbass, Apple is.
