Rattlesnake in the wild, thanks to an insane ex-military Scout leader I had that was trying to prove a point to us (his Scout troop).

It was actually a lot better than I expected, but I wouldn’t recommend it for a number of (hopefully) obvious reasons.

Look, this is gonna sound rude and maybe it is, but I am not a fucking moron and I know that’s how it works. I specifically stated that I have used linux in the past, and I can easily google any specific game and find out if it does or doesn’t work.

I was asking what distro is best for people to give current opinions on the subject, not because I cannot google very basic cut and dry info. I appreciate that you are trying to help but I am not about to sit here for hours typing the name of every game I might be interested in playing, so that someone else can read it and check it for me, were you about to spend your entire night checking games I listed for me? Of course you weren’t, and the entire idea of either of us doing that is insane.

With all due respect, if you have any opinion on which distro is currently the best for gaming feel free to share it, don’t waste both our times with useless basic linux info that I already knew about.

Literally why are you even here? I am not interested in your bullshit, I am done with windows, and I don’t understand why the fuck you seem to feel the need to argue with me and disrespect me. Microsoft doesn’t care about any petition, linux works fine for every game I play, and you are being an aggressive douche to me in your Microsoft dick sucking fanboyism.

Go find a better hobby, you should be blocked from this sub for being such a troll.

Lots, mostly older ones.

Edit

Why downvote? Am I supposed to give a list of every game I play? What does it matter to you?

Yeah, I’ve tried, and it doesn’t help. Also that does nothing for the fact that they are going to stop supporting Win10 sooner than later, and since my computer won’t run Win11 that means losing all security. Not to mention the microsoft using my data for nefarious reasons, constantly adding new bloatware garbage, and harvesting my data to use to train their AI.

I am done with windows, I am done with microsoft, and why am I having to explain my reasons and motivations for this in the Linux lemmy of all places? Do you work for microsoft or something???

The entire point of this post is I want to leave windows, I am sick and tired of microsoft spyware and bloatware slowing my already old computer down, and Windows 10 will not be supported for much longer.

Seriously why do you think I even brought up switching to linux if I wasn’t trying to leave windows?

Thanks! I should note, I did use Ubuntu for a few years quite a while ago, so not quite a beginner but still gonna have to relearn a lot of things.

No, it’s duct tape. If you bought gaffer tape that looks like the tape in the image, it was mislabeled or misadvertised, gaffer tape is made of different material and is not usually shiny, because light reflection would not be a good thing for what it is used for.

I love how the other races don’t trust Humans, because we are always in “mating season” and they lose their minds during theirs, so assume we are always loopy because of ours.

What do you call 9 people hanging out with 1 Nazi?

Just like he fought Zuckerberg, and how he followed through on the Twitter purchase without having to be forced!

Duly noted, ty.

You know I heard S2 was bad, so I didn’t watch it when it came out but planned on eventually giving it a chance, but this thread and specifically this post just convinced me to never watch it and just keep the memory of Westworld being good in my head lol.

Big Bang will always be my favourite Aesop track.

“I rock Ready, Aim, Fire, while y’all rock Ready, Fire, Aim, / Then blame the stationary target as the prey escapes the frame”

Why is this being downvoted?

So brave.

That’s just daycare with less steps.

“You know what else builds on the same premise? Racism, homophobia and all the other nice stuff. Before you go on and present your word vomit again, this is not a strawman, I’m not saying you’re racist, just that I would be 0% surprised if you were.”

You have no business being a moderator of anything, you have done nothing but build strawmen and make personal attacks. Please, ban me, I love the show but I want nothing to do with any community run by such an egomaniac as you.

Your entire engagement with my argument is “but there are open source projects”, which literally has nothing to do with the concerns I am voicing.

You have accused me of being a racist and a homophobe, told me you hate me, and called me a “cancer of society” because I disagreed with you. Fuck you and fuck your shitty little hovel you call a community. You literally made all those bullshit statements and then said “and if you respond I’ll ban you”. You do not deserve any measure of power over anyone if this is how you conduct yourself, you have allowed this tiny bit of power to go to your head.

Fuck your shitty AI art, instead of giving a starving artist a few dollars you spent it on a corporation, who used it to harm the environment. All so you could pretend you made something instead of supporting the arts. You should be ashamed at how you acted when called out for this, you should not be moderator of anything, and you are a hateful person who is completely detached from reality.

Please, commence with the ban and prove me right, good riddance.

I don’t want to “halt all progress” you dimwit, I want these tools not to be in the control of massive corporations who WILL use them to fuck you, fuck me, and fuck everyone in the name of profit. This is a golden ticket for the corporations to replace all creative positions, and further reduce the job market for everyone.

I am not “scared shitless” you strawman building ignoramus, I know what is gonna happen because I am not some moron so fascinated with his shiny AI toy that they can’t see the ramifications.

Stop pretending I said things I didn’t, stop putting words in my mouth, and stop acting like some self satisfied smug asshole because you like playing with a plagiarism machine. Your willingness to chase tech for your own gratification is exactly what is making this become adopted too quickly. I bet you think the recent writers and actors strikes were unfounded, but these people are literally going to have their entire industry taken out from under them because some dickheads in suits can make an extra dollar off it.

You refuse to engage with me in good faith, and just keep repeating the same tired “you’re scared and stupid” BULLSHIT over and over, I hope you lose your job and your passion to the AI because thats whats happening for millions of people, enjoy your AI toys you heartless corporate bootlicker.

EDIT

Also thanks for literally saying YOU HATE ME because I disagree with you. Get bent you brainless child, you literally don’t know what you are saying or what you are fighting for. You literally addressed none of my arguments, and just kept personally attacking me. I hope you are a bot, because a human as ignorant and hateful as you shouldn’t be wasting oxygen.
