this distro is just shady all over. even going to their site they said the project was based in Germany but states due to EU regulations had to relocate to the US BUT if you go to their jobs page they state they’re now a “Japanese Linux Open Source Project” BUT if you decide to look even further into it the thing looks like it’s NOW based out of Singapore. Also look at the sponsors in the page…Valve? Tuta? Google? I don’t buy it.

Then you look at their “forums” and it’s just…AI slop news articles?

This feels like a distro built by a crazy man almost on par with TempleOS.

I wouldn’t trust this thing as far as I could throw it.

RIP AEW. looks like they’re going to have to find a new TV and Streaming deal because WWE isn’t going to allow them to ALSO be on Netflix.

I’m in Canada and a NixOS user and today i’m wearing long jons and hiking socks cause it’s god damn freezing here.

it is visual aids getting the axe. I’m hard of hearing myself, I can only hear out of my right ear and even then it’s not great so when I played WoW I really needed the visual queues via DBM or WeakAuras to be able to effectively participate in Raids, even pug Raids.

All that being said I don’t play anymore. the game just became mediocre story followed by the typical grind fest for gear. it’s of no interest to me anymore.

EVE Online is a year older than WoW and it’s still going also, I still play it.

this is a dumbest opinion out of all the dumb fediverse opinions i’ve read.

I go to pixelfed to post my art and view other peoples art. that’s it. I don’t go there to read posts or what’s going on in peoples lives. For that I have Akkoma/Mastodon. If I want further interaction and discussion I have Piefed/Lemmy.

this blog post just reeks of “I need my voice to be heard on all the various platforms at the same time and I don’t want to go to each individual platform to do it” well I’m sorry cupcake that’s now how things work. Why isn’t this person complaining about Piefeed posts not showing up on Mastodon or vice versa?

If I sign up to Instagram I don’t expect to see facebook posts. Most people understand this concept. People aren’t going to go to Pixelfeed and then assume they instantly have access to view Mastodon and Lemmy at the same time.

you can still use reddit, just don’t comment on it. I run my own libreddit instance or use safereddit. problem solved.

why can’t it just go back to like it was way back in the day with like 8 on 8 or whatever and a solid single player? why do I need to be able to look like a Gundam to shoot people?

If I want to play a shooter with silly characters i’ll play Fortnite.

I agree with you but lets be fair here prices are going to go up regardless. in fact they have gone up regardless of the fact the majority of fast food places are now run by TFWs. But I feel like it’s either one excuse over another “prices have gone up because you won’t allow us to use TFWs” or “prices have gone up because of something else even though every store is now 100% TFW.”

It seems like this time last year Ghostty had all the hype behind it from just about everyone, kinda like Omarchy from a couple months back. And now you never hear a peep about either of them. I mean Ghostty was an ok terminal from what I remember when I briefly used it but it was nothing to call home about or really justify the hype behind it.

i.e. “Canadians don’t like being exploited so we need people from India who don’t mind it or simply don’t know any better”.

Why the hell should we bring over people from half way across the world to serve shitty coffee and crappy food? Canadians WILL work these jobs if you pay them enough. If you can’t pay the people that already live here a decent wage then shut down. The fact they feel they have to bring in people from India and pay them shit shouldn’t be tolerated.

they announced a new one awhile back but I don’t think it’s going to go anywhere. but yeah Andromedia was bad, I couldn’t even make it past the very first planet.

I run my own instance. I’m the only Admin, I’m the only Mod, I’m the only user. I “ban” people daily. Of course it doesn’t actually do anything but It’s fun it just feels more gratifying than just blocking someone.

But yeah I’d never allow people to sign up for my instance, I don’t have the time nor desire to admin people and mods.

Manwin is based out of Montreal, i.e. Pornhub. I can’t see this passing. Canada is quite literally the porn capital of the world, trust me I know I worked for 3 separate porn companies here in Canada. I just don’t see it happening.

hah now that you mention it, yes my Zune did get stolen.

I really liked the Zune AND the Nokia Lumia with Windows. honestly the Lumia was the best phone I ever had.

At one point, Microsoft did make good products. The only good thing they have now is the Windows Terminal which IMHO is one of the best terminal emulators out there, honestly wish I could have it on Linux.

mass effect? honestly that’s all I can think of off the top of my head. They’ll start pumping out more Battlefields, more sports, more money into UFC games and I would bet good money they’ll try to buy the license for WWE games from 2k. Saudi’s love their WWE.

I have a Razer Naga Left-Handed Edition and I’ve just used input-remapper with success. might depend on if you’re on Wayland or X11. dunno, just worked for me.

if you have the time for it, then go for it.

Keep in mind and i’m sure you already know this but you have to compile everything yourself so it WILL take time. I have it on a sort of hobby machine and I remember just getting Firefox to compile/install took awhile. The benefit of this is you get an extremely custom tailored system for yourself. But like I said it’s going to take you awhile to get to that point. If you want something immediate to daily drive and want more of a custom system as opposed to Arch then maybe give NixOS a shot. I switched from Arch to NixOS on my main machine and I love it, won’t use anything else. But if you’re patient and have the time to dedicate to Gentoo then go for it, it’s fun to play around with on a Saturday afternoon.

that actually reminds me of a buddy of mine that moved to Canada from Arizona. He kept using his Arizona ID for awhile and whenever we’d go to a bar (we were in our early 20s at the time) he’d always get grief because of his Arizona Drivers License. they’d be all “this expires in 2060? this has to be fake” and every time he’d have to explain to them how Arizona drivers licenses work. got to the point where he just had to switch for an Ontario one just to save him the hassle. He even said if he was in another state in the US they’d still give him a hard time over it.
