There are a lot of women that love fat guys. Ignoring the haters and wearing what you like is hot AF.

I’m gay, but if I were straight I would be with a fat guy over any other guy, 100%.

Another thing that wasn’t mentioned in the video that Proton does is it also – sometimes, depending on the game – checks a list of known requirements for a game and installs them through winetricks, or makes other recommended changes to game files that are known to make the game work.

When Proton is updated and the patch notes mention that a game was fixed, it’s something to do with this part of the process. A certain library, or whatever was missing and Proton installs it for you behind the scenes.

It also runs WINE through Steam’s launcher (aka Steam Linux Runtime) which has some common redistributables (aka Steamworks SDK Redist) built right into it, and it also runs appropriate anti-cheat solutions (aka Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime or Proton BattlEye Runtime).

Good luck getting open source maintainers that aren’t woke. We’re all queer down here!

I think because “nukiuchi” would be pronounced like “NOO-KEE-OO-CHEE” and “nukitsuke” would be pronounced like “NOO-KEE-SOO-KEE” so kind of similar. I dunno though!

Katana’s are weak on the flat side. They aren’t really meant to be used for parrying. In fact, most sword fights in Japan would be over after the first or second swing. It was commonplace to hold the grip of a katana but not draw it in such a way so that your enemy has trouble judging how long your katana is and what is a safe distance to be from you. Once your opponent is in range, draw it quickly and kill them in one blow, ideally.

The act of killing your opponent in a single blow is called “nukitsuke” from “nukiuchi” meaning “to cut down an opponent” and “tsuke” meaning “to stop an opponent’s attack before it begins”.

The Sekiro and popular media image of extended katana fights didn’t really happen, but if they did, there would almost certainly be some broken katanas.

Capitalism and Communism are bad, there is a middle ground which is better than both and most of the western world uses it. Have a largely free market, but also have socially funded services that wouldn’t work under a free market system like healthcare.

I don’t understand the appeal of foldable screen smart phones. Seems like nothing more than a gimmick to me.

If you open /usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.icon/main.qml and search for line there’s a section called PlasmaExtras.ShadowedLabel which seems to correspond with icon text and there’s a line maximumLineCount: 2 you could try reducing that to 1 and it might fix your issue.

It looks like KDE Plasma is based on QT6 and the icons I believe are a QT6 Label so you can also add some styling to it yourself. Here’s the documentation for it: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-controls-label-members.html

There is a property called lineHeight so you could just add that to the PlasmaExtras.ShadowedLabel and see if that fixes it.

Regardless of who owns the IP, it will open the flood gates of any company suing another for even just taking inspiration from one of their IPs.

While the designs were clearly inspired by Pokemon, I don’t think Nintendo has any leg to stand on in this case. The connection is flimsy at best., but I’m not a lawyer so I dunno, maybe there’s some legal loophole that Nintendo is banking on.

If this case goes in Nintendo’s favour, it could open the door for other lawsuits like Stardew Valley could get sued for infringing on Nintendo’s Harvest Moon IP, for example. I know that’s ludicrous but who knows, the law goes in unexpected directions sometimes.

Why would they be hostile to that idea? It allows you to run the VPN only on your browser instead of your entire system which is sometimes preferable.

It’s quite good and also I like that they largely support Linux. They have phone apps, browser extensions, desktop apps, and even CLIs. They also have downloadable configurations for OpenVPN and WireGuard if you want to go that route. They’ve also got what I assume are fairly basic features of most VPNs like kill switching, private DNS servers, etc.

Writers of children’s names books are going to have a field day with the data from this study.

You should go for a distro that matches what you want out of your system. You want stable? Find some strong LTS distro like Ubuntu. You want ULTRA STABLE? Go for an immutable distro. Do you want to use your system for gaming? Go for a distro with wide gaming support, built-in drivers with options for proprietary drivers.

It’s less about what base distro you’re using and more about what you like about that particular flavor of distro.

For example, I use my PC for gaming mostly, but also coding. I switched from Pop! (Ubuntu based) to Garuda (Arch based) and I love it because it’s really good for gaming, comes with Mangohud, Gamemode, Steam, Heroic, controller drivers, graphics drivers, etc, all optionally pre-installed. I also really like KDE apps because they’re performant and slick so I got the Plasma version.

Anyway, yeah, focus less on “this distro is Arch based” and more on what each distro can provide you as far as your personal tastes.

Current Linux market share worldwide for desktops is at ~4%. There’s also ~2% ChromeOS which is Linux based so I don’t know why it’s listed separately. As well as ~6% other which is probably Linux with privacy settings turned on.

If we go back 5 years in Linux desktop usage, the high end is including the “Other” category.

2019: ~2% to ~9% 2020: ~2.5% to ~5% 2021: ~3.5% to ~11.5% 2022: ~4.5% to ~10.5% 2023: ~6.5% to ~10% 2024: ~6% to ~12%

There is definitely a growing trend, the user base has grown somewhere between 33% and 300% depending on whether you include the “Other” category, which I personally think is a pretty safe assumption since for most PC users if it’s not Windows or Os X, it’s Linux.

Here’s where I got the data from: https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/worldwide

One place I worked at recently was still using Node version 8. Running npm install would give me a mini heart attack… Like 400+ critical vulnerabilities, it was several thousand vulnerabilities all around.

LTS just means Long Term Support in case you weren’t aware. It means no new development is happening, but security exploits will be patched as soon as they arise.

If you just want stability, LTS is the way to go. If you want all the cutting edge bells and whistles and are okay with potentially some instability (but probably not much) then use the latest version.

If your device isn’t connected to the internet during general use then I wouldn’t worry too much about updating anything. Security fixes aren’t important if there’s no way to connect to your device.

I read a review that said the show was “too woke”. I haven’t seen anything that’s woke except that a non-binary character exists and is referred to as “them”, and the shopkeepers in Filly seem to be lesbians but it’s not explicitly stated. It’s annoying seeing the word “woke” but it’s also kind of nice that it’s easy to spot the dipshits. Anyone using the word “woke” probably sucks big time.

You’re right about the writing, and the moment that sold me that the writing in this show is actually good was when Maximus and The Ghoul are fighting in Filly and instead of showing the entire fight, they cut to the people inside talking. Realizing that the fight adds nothing of substance but showy graphics is usually the indicator to me that the writers are in control of the vision of the show which pretty much always bodes well.

One of my favorite facts about what you just described is that “Christ” in Jesus’ name isn’t his last name but instead essentially means “the annointed”. Annointing is a religious practice in which a holy figure puts oil on you. And the name “Jesus” can be translated throughout the ages to basically be equivalent to the name “Joshua” in today’s English. So “Jesus Christ” today is basically “Oily Josh” lol
