CS2, for one

It’s not wacko if you’re planning on escalating. They want to go full gestapo militarization everywhere.

Why are they removing hacking videos? Have they always done that? IT help videos are the cornerstone of why YouTube has any redeeming value these days. I know, I know, I shouldn’t use it, but sometimes it is the only place that has the info you need.

Yes, agreed. Definitely value there. I feel like a huge part of university is demonstrating the ability to learn and apply oneself. So many people have success (like myself) in areas that they did not major in.

One thing that I think is actually an argument for big state schools vs private, more expensive lib arts schools is that the big state schools provide you skills in navigating “a System” and that does help when you get into the real world and the damn corporate rat race. Smaller liberal art schools might have more academic competition maybe, but less bureaucratic competition, in many cases. In many cases bureaucratic navigation skills, which are often more valuable in job applicants IRL.

Most impressive are folks that have gathered both the book smarts and the world navigation smarts without the need of higher education institutions and carved their path without going into huge debt or getting carried by rich parents who paid for their degree.

It is wild to me that tuition is SO expensive and quality educational content is SO ubiquitous now. It does take a lot of time, skill, and effort to provide quality educational experiences, but man is it weird that it is simultaneously free and ridiculously overpriced.

I think they are fucking up their blame game. They can say “radical leftists are shutting down the government for political purposes” on .gov websites all they want, but they are owning the shutdown if they continue to try to use it to do political stunts like mass firings as retaliation. They lose the blame game if they keep this up.

If they hadn’t left already, they never will.

FIFA and Madden have been dog shit iterations for years and years and people keep buying them. Plus Battlefield 6 might actually be good and will test plenty of people (like me) who said “never again” long ago. Luckily I probably won’t actually be tempted because of EA anti cheat and Linux incompatibility.

Going to? They already are. Check out the HUD webpage:

It’s purely defensive for people to point to the politics of the shooter, I think. I agree you have the motivations pegged here correctly with religion, but Democrats are going to be wary of any shooter being used to justify authoritarian police state shit. Republicans are desperately going to try to paint us as violent, regardless of the facts. Look at what they are trying to say about the MN school shooter and how Kirks shooter was immediately assumed to be left wing before we even knew anything at all.

Yes, I’m a technical person, but not a web developer and so this was all new to me until very recently. Good luck!

The way I think of the cloudflare tunnel is very similar to a VPN into your system from outside, but for web application traffic specifically.

Not the guy, but I use a domain I bought from cloudflare with a cloudflare tunnel on my network. Not as secure as a VPN like tailscale, but doesn’t require setting up a VPN for my friends and family’s TVs so they can connect to the server while keeping my actual IP hidden and without needing to do any port forwarding.

I think Linux has also improved immensely. There are so many more things available that weren’t an option even a few years ago. Not to say it was bad, but it wasn’t something most people could seemlessly do. Now it kinda is.

I’m on Fedora KDE. I think it was drivers. I had the official drivers just fine, but at the time (18-24 months ago?) they were shitty and breaking some games on my GPU so I switched to alternate drivers. I think the drivers are better now, but I haven’t switched back and cleaned out my repo list.

There are just so many examples of this. I like the shows that recognize that they have completed the story they set out to tell and either call it quits or change up the format completely.

One that comes to mind is Arrested Development. Season 4 was really difficult to watch and follow. It was great to get the hang back together, but it didn’t need to happen, TBH.

I was actually sad to hear Ted Lasso coming back. Just let good things be…

Yep, this is the way. Pretty much every game works fine unless there is specific anticheat or some launcher nonsense.

Samsies. Steam Deck showed me it was possible. Made the switch a little after that (waited for Hell Let Loose to turn on EAC for Linux).

This is why I have used flatpak steam. It’s a lot easier to manage drivers in it vs the shitshow that is doing it natively with adding custom driver specific repos and whatnot.

Hoping the new PC I just ordered (with an AMD GPU) will be better with the native app.

No one is that dumb. Right? If you’re in the inner circle, you know.

Hardest is trying to pull up replays of sports events. If I miss a game from yesterday that I want to watch fresh, I usually get my wife to pull up the replay feed on the TV because, depending on the streaming service, it will very likely be spoiled trying to get the stream up.

Dtmts.com (don’t tell me the score) helps with this for certain sport’s recaps, but unfortunately not full replays.
