If that was a catalyst for many others to do the same instead of an isolated incident, we wouldn’t have called it an assassination. We would have called it a revolution. In the kind of time and society we find ourselves in, this is the closest we’ll ever get to a revolution. And I say, viva la revolución!

This year in particular has just been a fucking awful job market. I lost my job in January and had severance last a couple months, but even after spending every day reading job boards and filing job applications until I was emotionally exhausted, I had zero callbacks for seven months. It was only a few months ago that I got two interviews, and I got offers from both. As soon as I accepted, I had some other companies suddenly crawling to me with offers. I’m still recovering from my debts accrued in that time, but I’m finally in a much better place now. Keep going at it, and I promise something will crack.

I had this kind of moment with Prey.

This is definitely a big blocker for my move to Linux as well, I’m heavily dependent on my Elgato HD60 X

I think it would be hard to nail down the overall demeanor. Of course there’s the stereotype that men are closed up emotionally and sometimes male toxicity enforces that, but I think it really just comes down to how people develop emotionally and if they feel secure to trust others with those emotions.

Join the dark side – stop taking your pills and enjoy Elder Scrolls 6 and Titanfall 3 with the rest of us

Same here! I’m happy to see the UBports fork is still active as Lomiri, I haven’t checked it out in a while.

Right around when Steam is requiring games to inform users when they install rootkits lmao

KDE, because despite my bitterness for the loss of Unity 8, I know it’s merely nostalgia for me. I want something I feel like I can make my own without too much difficulty.

I’m a little of both, I joined for escaping the reddit blackout shutdown, but I stayed for the advantages of the fediverse. I grew up working with a lot of proprietary software, and I’ve had growing pains as I’ve grown bitter about proprietary software over time. I’ve been self hosting, working on migrating my machines to Linux, and trying to find workable alternatives to everything.

Edit: yes I’m quite techy, a DevSecOps/software engineer. I worked with Linux a long time through VMs and containers, but gaming and Adobe kept me from having a daily driver machine for more than a little while. I don’t think I’ll ever fully escape Windows because I’m a big .NET developer and work with a lot of legacy code, but I’m more than happy to leave that to a QEMU VM.

Now that Citra isn’t available, Nintendo knows I have no choice but to buy Samus Returns on my Switch!

This has been a dream of mine and one of my friend’s as well. There’s a small handful of blockers that I’ve slowly been transitioning but the upcoming windows pain points you mentioned are definitely recent motivators for me. I’m glad you made it and I hope the rest of us can too! I look forward to reading more about your experience.

The source is literally just VSCode with a different label. What benefit does that have?

That’s a truly awful take. Especially for people who have since learned to be more mindful about their data. We need solidarity to fight corporations, not punitive treatment.

Right, exactly, which is why they launched with a FOSS license. Oh, wait–

Imagine the money going to VSCode which actually is the one getting contributions

Except this isn’t money going to a FOSS project, it’s money to some guys whose only keyboard is StackOverflow’s The Key.

In general I’d agree, although Citra feels like an exception. I’m not quite sure why they targeted that one so hard.

Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.

That’s basically it. Some Arch users are genuinely just picky about what they want on their system and desire to make their setup as minimal as possible. However, a lot of people who make it their personality just get a superiority complex over having something that’s less accessible to the average user.

Right, and even if they were exceptions, the operative word was expect. It can happen but it’s not a guarantee.
