I’ve only been playing games on Linux for the past year and it’s been a pretty smooth experience. Go for it!

The screenshot shows 1password, which to my knowledge is not affiliated to Microsoft, so I think yes, they are sponsored

Win11: less functionality, more ads

And what’s with the weasel words like “recommended”? Just call them “sponsored” or “ads”, like they really are.

Good, the use of single use plastic packaging is absolutely ridiculous: single candies wrapped in plastic, 3 chips wrapped in a smaller plastic bag. Just paying attention highlights how wasteful a lot of it is.

Wow, Microsoft are always so innovative! I never thought that the Win11 taskbar could get any shittier, but somehow they managed it. It’s great to see those thousands of engineers being put to good use.

Can’t we just force heavy taxation for the amount of plastics in products? That would force producers to look at alternatives to plastic for packaging.

I am always in shock when I buy some product and it has layers and layers of thick plastic to give the impression of some premium product. And sometimes I don’t even have an alternative product to buy to avoid it since I only have 2 supermarkets in my area.

Proof of work is not even scalable to the level of current bank transactions. Ethereum network didn’t have enough compute to clear the backlog created by some niche cat NFT “game” a few years ago when people still gave a shit about NFTs.

Limited purchasing power of the poor and middle class is a political problem, not a problem solved by tech, no matter what crypto gurus and tech messiahs will tell you. The most prolific crypto miners are the ones that already have more “traditional” capital to invest. So crypto is not solving the wealth divide, it is just making it worse.

I hate banks as much as anyone, but crypto is not the solution.

The next “logical” step after SUVs is driving APCs in the name of safety.

You’re right. I fixed it now but it seems that all the links next to the comment are broken in this thread, for me at least. The links next to the name point to different comments in the thread. Maybe a Lemmy bug

WTF are you even talking about? Your comment I answered to was this, which contains no quotes.

The only problem here is that you made a dumb mistake, refuse to own up to it and move on, and instead insist that everyone else is talking out of their arse.

Edit: fixed link to comment

You’re welcome, but it was mostly about a shit argument, not as much about tone.

Mate, read the room. Tone deaf posts like this are a good reason why people hate vegans. And this is coming from a fellow vegan. Palestine isn’t going to avoid famine by switching to vegan now; that’s completely insane! And it would still be starving even it was 100% vegan, due to, you know, a fucking genocide happening.
