  • Honestly thats just cause zorinOS is a dumbsterfire. Sure theres 100s of distros to choose from and a fuck load of them are “professional” projects. But they arn’t actually user friendly professional projects. Theres little to no effort or care put into the real world aspects that need to be accounted for to onboard new users.

    ZorinOS is great and professional for an already existing user.

    Its why valve has had to put so much fucking effort in to get something thats actually viable to market to your avg joe.

    Frankly outside of a steamOS, bazzite, and cachyOS. Basically no distro goes to any real length to actually make things new user friendly.

    Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora, and many other of the most popular distros are “good enough”. They are perfectly functional out of the box as nothing more or less then a useable desktop and web browser. Anything beyond that quickly falls to hit or miss bullshit.

    As dumb as it is. The only distros that have actually put the work in to onboard new windows users properly have been the ones with a version targeting the steam deck and gamers.

    People who ONLY need a email client are already accounted for after all with stuff like mint. You don’t need your computer for anything so anything beyond the basics being VERY polished is pointless.


  • That’s because that’s the character he plays.

    Your basically falling for the trap of assuming the act is real.

    Its like thinking the angry video game nerd is actually just a man child with no emotion control.

    Its literally just acting.

    Yahtzee does an amazing job of calling himself out when he fucks up, his side work is very level headed and he has a really solid foundation of understanding of the development and writing side of gaming. Which is a lot more then many game reviewers.

    If you don’t like his material that’s fine, he’s basically a comedian. Not everyone is going to like his routine. But that’s all it is.





  • Funfact, anytime someone utters the phrase “leading democracy” that just means they have drank the kool-aid and are either too blind, ignorant or stupid to realize there’s no such thing.

    Every government is corrupt as fuck as a base line. There is no leading democracy they all fucking suck.

    Every government sucks.

    Some just suck more then others, the only upside to democracy is they at least typically out right murdery to their own people most of the time. And pretend to play nice.


  • Iv seen rape play go about as wrong as it can and now I absolutely fucking hate the idea of any form of power dynamic that can be abused.

    To be short, a good friend ended up having a girl convince him to tie her up and “rape” her. She arranged to have a friend show up and call the cops.

    Ruined his entirely life. He’s still in jail from it. They had dated for a bit over a year and till then I had thought they were a great couple. She just turned out to be a raging fucking cunt who wanted all his shit.

    Fucking stole everything from him basically.

    Swear to God it feels like the only reason she got away with it is she was white and he was black.









  • There’s a line between having full blown dementia and being entirely helpless with out help. And a random 65 year old just being fucking stupid cause they are “old” and stopped trying to think for themselves.

    A LOT of elderly are still entirely of sound mind and just even attempting to think for themselves. Hell it is not even just the elderly. People let themselves go fucking retarded the moment they have to actually use their brain for anything outside their expertise or day to day tasks.

    Its insanely frustrating to watch.

    Yeah some times the scammers just get lucky or someone has a brain fart. It happens we all have off days.

    But dear fuck do some people just never try.




  • That doesn’t actually do anything…

    Opting out of buying from a service only hurts them when the service is anti consumer.

    When the service is large due to pro consumer reasons then not buying just hurts yourself.

    An anti consumer service relies on momentum to maintain it self. Hoping people are too lazy to leave. Since growing the customer base is near impossible with out dirty tactics.

    A pro consumer service grows regardless, since it’s the best option. It doesn’t have to do dirty things to grow a customer base since by default the other options are worse.

    If you just stop buying games entirely then you also do not matter you removed yourself entire from the equation.

    You would need to start buying games from non valve sources that are in direct competition with valve. So things like the Amazon store, Uplay, etc.

    Which do the same things and worse.

    Functionally you do not get a choice of voting with your wallet. Because it doesn’t apply here. So all your doing is being stupid at worse and nothing at best for the cause.

    You ARNT the customer being hurt here. You can’t vote with your wallet. The game studios and devs are the customer in question. THEY have to vote with their wallet by not putting games on steam.

    You as a gamer physically can’t vote with your wallet unless you directly go to the competition.
