The truth is still worth uncovering. We might not be able to do anything about it right now, but that doesn’t mean that will always be the case.

I feel like I’ve seen a similar article recently for a similar but more general study. Looks like the data is finally catching up to the lie.

Too bad we’ve elected the exact wrong people to do anything about it. Man, the next years are going to be so fun…

I’ve set up several distros on VMs lately (CachyOS, Bazzite, EOS, PikaOS, NixOS, and more), and Endeavor has one of the absolute best installation and onboarding experiences.

Something about it just feels so polished, though keep an eye on PikaOS. They’ve got some great UX people on their team.

Asking for voluntary tips isn’t enshittification. It’s surviving within the reality of shitty capitalism. I donate to my instance admins, for example, because as much as they probably would love to just run this instance for free, they can’t.

This is probably the most ethical way to ensure creators can continue to eat, especially with generative software models able to produce competing garbage in gigantic volumes.

Also, I’m fairly certain I remember the name, and he’s been on the doomer circuit for a while, now (iirc). This is his schtick, to go around giving quotes and sound bites to journalists.

The thing is, cynicism is easy and cheap. The universe is ruthlessly neutral, so being on the side of “everything sucks and we’re going to die” appears intelligent to some, but it’s actually the laziest, safest bet you could make.

I think you’re maybe thinking of blendOS, which is immutable Arch, but it’s not specifically gaming focused. Afaik, there’s no gaming-focused immutable Arch distros, excepting the obvious SteamOS.

If you really wanted to, you could install ostree on CachyOS, though I have no clue how you’d manage things like updates. PikaOS is based loosely on both CachyOS and Nobara, but it uses a Debian foundation, taking advantage of the same GitHub Actions that Bazzite uses; if one was so inclined, seems like you could roll your own immutable Arch gaming distro that way.

Hopefully nobody is shocked by this. It’s a clown show, and the only surprise is how ridiculous the clowns are.

As much as the government wasn’t “for the people before,” it’s now actively against us. Unite. Organize. Resist.

At first, I was like, “Who cares? Land property ownership as an investment vehicle is part of the problem in the US,” but then I realized that this article isn’t for people like me. This is an article meant to reach the Gen Xers, the Boomers, and others who think they don’t have to care, because their property will keep them wealthy enough to avoid the worst Climate Change has to offer.

And if threatening people’s wallets is what it takes to get people to see the inescapable danger in doing nothing, then I’m all for it.

Depends. Are there non-anthro animals in this universe (e.g. Pluto vs. Goofy)?

Maybe we should rethink if wolves are the best choice for the job then, eh?

No, because there’s areas where deer are so prolific that they’re considered pests. I knew many hunters in one such area, and nobody fed the deer, because it would have been costly and pointless.

Whoever wrote that obviously never lived in an area with deer hunters.

I’m not going to pretend to understand Spain’s politics or economy, but it would behoove a lot of countries’ governments to start acting in the interests of their citizens vis a vis the looming disasters caused by climate change, rather than capitulating to wealthy special interests.

The main reason the far right is having a moment across the globe is because they’re tapping into that simmering fear and frustration as people watch their allegedly democratic institutions fail them, one by one, over and over. And the existing institutions are acting like everything is fine—business as usual.

It’s not fine. Most people can’t just buy a new home when theirs gets destroyed by flooding, fires, storms, etc. They can’t just move. The far right is only going to make things worse, but they’re promising people some kind of change (and hoping people don’t look too hard), whereas current institutions are promising more of the same and expecting people to just be patient as we pass each climate-disaster milestone.

Bummer that I don’t understand German. I could always use another Linux community in my feed!

Sounds like something an AI would say… /j
