I hope that’s enough…

Like I said, good luck

Mine is off too. I’m usually too busy to bother with worrying too much about Google stealing my data. I’ve been using Google for so long that it’s too late for me.

Save yourselves.

“Should” is doing some serious work in your last statement.

As someone with ~72 TB of raw storage… Heh. Good luck.

Those words mean things. They might not make a lot of sense in the context we used them in, but they formed a thought.

6-7 isn’t even a semi complete concept on the surface of it. It’s literally devoid of any meaning at all.

Yup. I agree. I was just checking to see if that was the case.

I was certainly hoping it was, but I wanted to see what other people’s experiences have been.

Thanks for the conversation.

Oooh. That version. I forgot they called that basic 2.0

Alright.

One of us.

Also DOS. Now I’m a digital plumber, keeping the pipes and tubes of the Internet from getting backed up with all the things happening commercially.

Remember, the Internet is not something you can just dump something on, it’s not a big truck.

There was a 2.0?

TIL.

Lies and slander.

I am a system administrator and a network administrator. I abhor database management tyvm.

I was 8 when Linus posted on that Minix Usenet group about his hobby that won’t be big at all.

See, that’s what I was thinking. I’ll have to do more research, but I would think all the overhead from Windows being Windows, would kind of diminish the gap between running it natively on Windows, and using proton or something so you can run it on Linux.

The overhead on both should be fairly similar, though with how Windows is, it wouldn’t surprise me if it was slower.

Okay, real talk.

I know there’s probably 100 videos on this, but I don’t have time to watch any of them right now…

How much performance is lost/gained from using Linux to play games via proton?

I’m certain any game with a native Linux version will work great, I’m mostly concerned with the ones that need some kind of emulation layer.

I would agree that’s what people mean, but they’re completely overlooking that the problem has already been recognised, and addressed, with a solution that’s been around for decades.

It’s just that people take these modern amenities for granted, so they see them as part of the burden of doing the dishes or doing laundry, rather than relieving the burden of doing those things.

We can load up the dish washer and sit on our duff watching YouTube while a machine does the hard work. Then we just have to suffer through putting the dishes where we want them to go.

This is textbook “first world problems”. AI is only expected to solve these first world problems. By definition, these problems are less actually problems that need solving, and more inconveniences that we perceive as problems.

I’m sorry you’re going through that.

I’m just pointing this out, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who will…

We have machines to do the laundry and dishes for us already. We just have to set them up (put stuff in them) and they do the job for us.

When was the last time you saw someone get out the washing board?

Might have been. The way I heard it, the toggle was a button, like the turbo button.

When I was a kid, first using computers in the mid 1980s, blue LEDs were considered to be impossible to make.

So my basic bitch IBM clone only had red indicator lights.

The implication is that people who grew up with newer technology had stuff that was fancier than the stuff older generations had, which is objectively true.

I’m sorry that you didn’t get the joke, and I’m sorry that I had to explain it to you.

Good luck with life, seems like you’ll need it.
