  • A large majority of games on steam work via proton.

    For games outside steam, there's a pretty good community around wine wrappers. I think it's called lutris.

    I used to play GTAV, assassins creed, and other AAA titles through it 4 years ago and its only gotten better.

  • As a committed hexbear poster, I want to share something sorta quick that might give insight into the chapo rules for posting.

    The culture generally arose from having a home-team advantage on the old sub. Where typically across reddit, Liberals and Conservatives would argue in bad faith with leftists, return to propaganda as proof, and generally ignore history and call it "whataboutism".

    The culture that came from the home-team advantage was a mix of well cited arguments and a ruthless trolling component. It's a relentless form of arguing, where many people can get together and reverse the general consensus.

    So when some far right person came in and thought they were being witty with some canned racist/sexist/homophobic remark, we would simply bully them, Tell them to post hog, etc. Same thing with Liberals depending on the comment. Good faith comments are typically met with a thoughtful response. Nowhere else on reddit could you have the level of backup to drown out the fascist elements on that site.

    This culture is a shock to a lot of people but I assure you we're very nice people and I think some of us are just a little too excited to dunk again.

    I hope this helps a bit. We're all extremely anti-fascist. We do have critical support for previous socialist endeavors, because the horrors of capitalism and it's bedfellow, fascism, have still more than outdone the harm socialist projects caused.

  • Man I just want vyvanse without the nearly $400/mo bill.

    I got tons of free vy in college from a friend who had a glut. Methylphenidate just isn't the same. I basically owe my degree to vyvanse.

  • Solution, bars low to look cool, then ride no-handed when your back hurts. Get really good at riding without hands so you also look cool.

  • I've been agitating on HN for a little while, at first I was just commenting to unlock the magical downvote button but now I'm honestly seeing an ideological shift, small but its there.

    A lot of those guys are wholly unprepared for pushback and it makes it fairly easy pickings unless you're actively defending the USSR. I've even got some critical support for china posts that ratio'd the original comment.

  • it's not a great comparison I'll admit, but it's essentially the same as digital privacy, only one of these is protected in courts and the other is encouraged.

    I haven't sat down to really build a stance on this but it does not sit well.

  • I'm honestly loving the federation. I love the Chapo rules of posting, I'm so happy PPB is back. Its so exciting.

  • If the results were also open and public, it'd be a different conversation.

    This is more akin to rain water collection up-hill and selling it back to the people downhill. It's privatization of a public resource.

  • wrist watches have had the technology to be waterproof with moving components and reusable gaskets for decades.

    Just use screws instead of glue on the back panel and you're golden.

  • You don't miss the jack until you're suddenly faced with a need for it, away from all your adapters. Nothing beats just a single common plug that can interface with every bit of audio electronics ever.

    I love my bt ear buds but 98% of bluetooth audio gear is ewaste from the factory.

  • I once was celebrating his semi collapse of JP and a friend of mine scolded me for making light of drug addiction.
