Probably never masturbate again

Mandrake. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. But I did get it installed.

Maybe tariffs were just a way to convert what could have been corporate greed into Trumpian incompetence

As others have said, this seems like an ill-formed question. Do you have reason to believe that politicians “cling to the idea that these voters can’t be reached”?

Make a pit with lava in it. Enjoy the steak.

I’ve watch both Yellowstone prequels. Moving on to the actual Yellowstone show but worried I may not like it as much since the setting is modern.

1883 in particular was very good.

Yes, exactly this ^

While I can appreciate the ADS-B bit, it seems clear that the change to public registration would still negatively affect tracking.

The FAA is changing the rule which makes this information public. The FAA is fully controlled by the rich.

Seppuku is a task

I said it matters: “the difference is obvious”.

But for me, it does not justify the cost difference at the current time.

It does matter. But all my big displays are still LCD, because of cost.

It’s about blackpoint. With an LED, pixels which are black still have a backlight. This makes them a kind of grey.

With OLED, the pixels themselves emit light. This means that black pixels are unlit.

The difference is obvious in a dimly lit room looking at dark content.

That said, while I would love OLEDs all around, they’re expensive. I’m willing to give up having true blacks for the cost difference. It may be different as costs on OLED come down.

I do have an OLED phone, because Samsung is pumping out OLEDs on everything.

It made money, though.

The industry has become completely adverse to risk.

It’s all rehashed slop until the end of time.

Something something about showing connections between points in a circle… the chocolate starfish of life.

It was much easier to fake a resurrection back then.

Dogshit dogeshit

Ah yes, GTA Online now has kernel-level anti-cheat – but only got it recently. It used to work.

I’m also on all AMD. I do play almost exclusively single player, so maybe that’s the main difference.

There shouldn’t really be anything about Mint to cause such different results – even though they’re both derived from Ubuntu, I’d be curious if your experience changed with something like PopOS (more designed with gaming in mind, so could eliminate some possibility of setup issues or similar).

GTA V works fine… Played it yesterday.

Yeah it just does not mesh with my experience at all.

Driver issues?

For me, it’s 1 game out of 300 that doesn’t work. Not sure when last you have tried. Reliable Linux gaming via Proton has grown by leaps and bounds since the Steam Deck.

Haven’t needed Windows for 3+ years. Gaming every day.

My experience over the last few years of Linux gaming is: with Proton, it’s mostly a matter of It Just Works™.

When it doesn’t, switch to Experimental, and then usually it works.

Compatibility with older games is fantastic, too.

The exception to this are games which require kernel-level anti-cheat. This is a security nightmare on Windows as it is, and it simply doesn’t work on Linux. Luckily, these games are few – but they do tend to be big (e.g. Apex Legends).
