I found the original study in the article, it’s in German. Here it is (Linux Gaming: Test Results and Conclusion), it looks like most Linux distros have worse lows and frame times than Windows 11, other than Arch Linux which seems to be a tossup.
Death is actually very expensive, it’s just not the dead person that foots the bill.
Depends on the beans. Some taste really good on their own, others are very bland.
Fully agreed. Stuff like, you have to work for the government park corp and clean up parks as your job for the next year is a form of sentencing I could agree with. I don’t agree with random company 400 getting to use you as a slave being your sentence.
I think people are allowed to say that slavery is bad even if we benefit from slave labor. It’s not like shit is labeled, and even if a product is free from one form of slavery there are still so many types across the world it would take a global effort to get rid of them all. Isn’t it better to at least acknowledge the problem?
Repealing that act should be one of the largest priorities of leftists in the United States. I wish people talked about it more.
I’m glad to hear it, this will make the mobile version much more usable.
Voting needs to be changed first. Until it's changed, third parties will never be viable, and voting for their candidates will only cause a spoiler effect for the main two parties. Considering that the GOP is fascist, they need to be removed from office for any type of reform to be made successfully to the American democracy.
Mastadon (and the Fediverse in general, to some extent) has problems with discoverability and the average user finds federation confusing. People tend to either use microblogging to see what’s going on with people they’re interested in or to broadcast their activities to a large group of people, and Mastadon currently doesn’t fit that niche very well.
I understand and sympathize with Rob on a spiritual level.
At least refactoring the code can make the bug easier to find. What I hate is when I spend hours looking for a bug because I missed a single line in some documentation and misunderstood how something in the project worked, that always hurts.
Generally it’s agreed the best way to stop piracy is by offering a more convenient alternative. I generally for example don’t pirate video games available on Steam. With streaming services being so disjoint and expensive now I’ve gone back to pirating, at least with cable you can bundle channels.
They were using Proton, so most likely X11 as their windowing system. I’m guessing they were using the default distro kernels as of November 15, 2023 (when they ran the benchmark), but I don’t think the article said for sure.
