…so, the Sleep Now In The Fire music video.

Blink and you’ll miss it, but for about at a single second, there’s a shot at around 1:03 …

… one of the goddamned daytraders taking a break to watch a free live performance?

He’s got a Trump For President sign.

Yeah.

For about 4 months in 99 and 2000, Trump actually did try to run for President, as the candidate of the Reform Party.

Apparently it was Jesse Ventura that convinced him, and Trump stated that Oprah Winfrey would be his ideal VP running mate.

Oh hey would you look at that, Roger Stone was his campaign manager back then too!

Oh, github, a division of MicroSlop?

There are alternatives, which will become more popular as it becomes more and more obvious that they are just part of the US national ‘security’ apparatus.

Yeah and they largely all fucking suck ass for about the last 5 years.

There’s a difference between slop that appeals to an imagined ‘median consumer’ that will make a boatload of money, and ideas that are actually unique and new and captivating.

Yeah. Its like… welp, went down the wrong path in that dialogue tree, undo, ctrl z, load previous save!

Ah you beat me to it!

Yep.

This is the real reason that an open source printer would get a ton of pushback… it would make it so that law enforcement agencies can’t use the detailed, near invisible, functional serial numbers that snitch on all their users.

Guys, what you need to do to be competetive, to foster competition… is keep using all our products and services.

Setting up a fund to get new people involved, to get some more money to existing software devs who work on comparable products and servicrs that could be expanded and improved?

No no no, thats uh, that’s anti-competetive, is what that is.

Mhm.

Yep.

… I’ve never even heard of it.

But I do love the old paper mario games!

So wow, now we have a real life example of actual organic word of mouth spread of a game, as opposed to just being a passive advertisement sponge!

Great news!

They are!

… Just typically not the overproduced and overpriced corpo ones.

Wanna drive down AAA game prices?

Stop paying them!

Support your favorite indie or AA game today!

Don’t like games with predatory microtransactions?

You’ll never believe this, but you can also just stop playing games with them!

Get all your friends onboard with the plan, fight the man!

… at the height of their arrogance, the climax of their hubris, they decided that their own spaghetti was so substantial, so impressive, of such bulk, they confused it for divinity; they believed that it could organize and improve itself.

Such was the nature and extent of MicroSlop’s trangressions against the very nature of noodles, against those ancient ones who wove together the very fibers of reality itself.

I’m not annoyed that you don’t love linux, I’m annoyed that you don’t understand what words mean and think you have a higher level of relevant experience than you actually do, that you are going out of your way to feel insulted.

It points toward you being the kind of entitled and emotionally unstable person that people who actually are experienced with linux tend to have PTSD from consistently dealing with.

And your subsequent comment I am here replying to confirms it.

I didn’t tell you to not be an idiot, I didn’t call you dumb, I gave you the blueprint of a way to become a more experienced linux user, or a functional alternative to that.

Nobody in this thread called you dumb or an idiot, unless I somehow have someone who replied to you already blocked for some reason.

Your ego is too large, that is why ‘linux people’ don’t like you; you’re the arrogant entitled asshole who is unwilling to either learn or accept your own limitations.

Normally, in IT departments, acting the way you’ve acted would get you flagged or categorized as a more hostile or combatative client… here on lemmy, nobody is being paid to deal with your ego.

Uh… I mean, kind of? Not really?

Bazzite makes significant use of Proton, which yes Valve primarily funds, though… probably more to the tune of millions to tens of millions, over its entire history so far, not… billions…

But as I said, its… mostly Fedora, with a good deal of prepackaged tweaks and prebuilt flatpaks and other systems they either manage or contribute to as a kind of functional ecosystem.

Fedora != Valve.

Anyway, I daily drive Bazzite.

I probably can help you, I’ve managed to fuck and unfuck myself by breaking and then fixing Bazzite more than once, by doing things they say you probably shouldn’t do, and then using their provided wiki/tools/macros to fix things… and they’ve refined and improved their rollback command macros and such over the years.

But, you don’t want to be helped, you want to complain, so, best of luck with that.

Well a lot of those people are just fundamentally taught that anything Sky Daddy does quite literally is the very concept of good and just, and seem to be genuinely incapable of their own independent moral reasoning.

I know because that is how I was raised, good thing I’m more curious and inquisitive than I am blindly faithful.

We’ve got something around a third of the US that is ready and eager to install some kind of an overt theocracy, if you haven’t heard of the Seven Mountains movement/concept look it up.

These people are fundamentally driven by irrational delusions and falsities and lies and obvious logical paradoxes, all plastered over with ‘faith’ that simply serves as a justification for hatred and bigotry.

I know not all religious people are like this, many of them are much more reasonable.

But we have ya’ll qaeda here at home, and they will destroy everything they do not understand if they are not countered.

… Valve does not directly maintain or update or publish Bazzite.

Bazzite is an atomic version of Fedora, made by basically the Bazzite team… SteamOS, which is actually developed by Valve, is basically an atomic version of Arch.

Are you using Bazzite, or SteamOS?

Also: Display doesn’t work if I turn off the display.

… what?

You… would you expect a thing to work if you turned it off?

Now, bluetooth not working on your mobo could be a legitimate driver compatibility issue, and it also sounds like you’re having similar weirdness with your audio drivers.

What is your actual OS?

What is your actual mobo?

OP topic is about Bazzite.

Posts comment about how entirely different Linux distro has some problems.

Thinks ‘if you download a .exe and click next a few times, it usually works’.

Has no idea what a flatpak is or how they work.

Interperets being called a beginner at linux and being told said entirely different linux distro is not for beginners as being called dumb.

… sigh.

Yeah, you are at beginner at linux.

Your experience with Windows as an OS is almost entirely irrelevant to any ability you may or may not have with linux.

Maybe either keep sticking with distros oriented toward beginners at linux, or, learn more about and become more experienced with linux, so you can use distros that are not targetted at beginners, where more advanced users are assumed to be capable of doing some of their own investigation and problem solving.

As an example:

… why didn’t the intial btrfs attempt at setting up cachyOS work?

If you were a more advanced linux user, you might have actually noted a specific error that was thrown out, been able to do some research into why that error got thrown, where the problem stems from, what the state of the filesystem was prior to attempting and failing to format it, what part of the formatting process failed, whether or not some hardware incompatibility or error was part of the problem, etc.

If that all sounds too complicated or like gobbledygoop… you are a beginner at linux.

The vast majority of Arch based distros are basically experimental, as in, you should expect them to break and often not work properly, for one reason or another.

… not everyone regularly consumes as much fiber as a ‘greenbeanmachine’, lol.

Fucking obviously duh, of course it does.

Why does anybody give any kind of benefit of doubt to the class of wealthy rapists that run society and most of its institutions?

They’re rapists.

They’ll rape your money, your data, your attention, your energy, your time, anything they can either groom you into letting them take, or just take it by force.

And/or, if you’re ‘lucky’, they’ll just literally rape you physically.

These people are all violent sociopaths and need to be either euthanized or quarantined from society.

Imagine SexPestiny.

There ya go, thats all of these goddamned people.

Machiavellian, manipulative, beyond amoral into just actually evil, not actually very smart, they just happen to have money.

I did try and explain how to avoid potential infections in an edit… before any insertions, make sure the involved areas, and a certain radius around them are thoroughly cleaned off of any uh, food product.

Like, clean up the whole area around people’s thighs and groin before you go ‘in’ to anything, for the gal, probably just don’t ever get any food product too directly close to where it could end up inside anywhere that has its own kind of sensitive self-regulating environment.

Sort of like with ‘never go ass to mouth’… either eat the gal out before food stuffs get into your mouths, or, have the other party just actually brush their teeth.

We had a number of disposable and non disposable towels and such on hand, beyond uh, orally prepping each other. Along with the pre prep of shower curtains, we put all our clothes into an unused garbage bag before we started… we realized that we’d only be able to lie or stand on or press against things or surfaces that we’d pre setup a shower curtain over, otherwise we’d leave a vaguely human shaped pb&j blotch on it…

…we did a significant amount of preplanning to account for just how generally messy this likely would be.

Then, the thorough shower afterward really is needed to get stuff off of the rest of your bodies, totally out of each other’s hair and such. You… kind of actually do need both people present to help the other get their hair as clean as possible, as gently as possible. If somebody has longer hair, probably tie it into a bun or ponytail or something, do your best not to intentionally palm or grab it.

Now, I cannot with any confidence speak to how well this kind of procedure would like… generally work with other people following it, repeating 10s or 100s of instances of it.

YMMV, there may be factors I am not remembering or considering that could be relevant.

Like obviously we both did not have any STDs, had been fairly recently screened, weren’t fucking anybody else in the interim.

Also, though I don’t think either of us knew it at the time… pretty sure we’re both autistic, hence the… mutual attention to details and contingency planning.

But anyway, I can say that the one time that we did this, nobody had any kind of infection afterward, yeast or otherwise.

As to Ratatat?

Perks of being a hipster, I guess, lol?

… I suppose you could say its a matter of taste.

You forgot another possibility:

He is neither oblivious nor impotent, yet finds this extremely funny.

Know yourself well, and know the enemy well, and you need not fear the result of one hundred battles.
