  • Recently built a new PC and clean installed Nobara Linux. It’s so much… Better. In every way, except for compatibility—and even that’s not close to as bad as people say it is. Granted, I had used mostly open source programs before (still quite disappointed that Playnite isn’t available on Linux, I do miss that) but I’m using mostly the same software. The pre-done compatibility fixes etc. that the Nobara team has done (huge props to them!) has made it far easier than i even expected. It really is getting to the point that I want a major laptop/PC manufacturer to ship with a polished, user friendly Linux distro, and get the ball rolling.


  • It’s insane that Americans still tolerate this.

    A consistent viewpoint I see on America, is the assumption that if we don’t like a politician we can simply say so and they’re out of office. One of the biggest problems here is actually that most people feel lacking in their personal control on the government, even local. Everything is such a large scale, that ‘speaking up’ not only feels like it does nothing—it really does nothing, unless you’re famous or something. No one here is happy about how our government works, we just don’t have control over it. It’s an illusion of control, while the people at the top make the actual choices.
