I do not think Microsoft is afraid, I think they are just not that focused on the gaming market, yes they have a console and a bunch of game studios, but I believe that is right now a secondary focus.

No Microsoft is focused on the tech heroine called AI, trying to inject it wherever they can. They see this as the new frontier. So even though I would have loved seeing Microsoft scream in pain as they realise another competitor has actually a more enriching product that will eat their lunch, unfortunately they are in another boardroom discussing how they can get more AI, does anyone know where they can get more AI

Oh no I disagree, I would rather be the richest person in a poor country than be the poorest person in a rich country. But I grew up in a low-ish, not nearly the lowest, income country so maybe I am just used to it.

Green Ubuntu squad is here and ready to serve

On our mine we have a lot of systems to protect the tyres, and they are inspected regularly. Like if you overload your truck the truck will go automatically into creep mode to protect the tyres. We also have specialised services on site to inspect any damages and wear to ensure safe usage of the tyres, scrapping them way before the expected life span, usually at 50-60%. Repairs are also done but only if the tyres are not structurally damaged.

But proper standoff distance usually prevents any people or machinery coming into any dangerous situation of a tyre blowing out. The real danger of these huge trucks, we have the 350 Tonnes version, its collisions, can so easily drive over almost anything without knowing, so that is why we have a very far standoff distance, 80-100 meters to ensure no one gets too close. Also we have a collision avoidance system where the truck switches off when anything gets nearby

The one kid smashed a kid’s face into a toilet till it broke, toilet and kid’s face, and news crew came filming where we found out almost all our classes are made out of asbestos, late 2000s

So disappointed that no meteorologist said: “a meteor probably”.

As a dog person I see cats as being apathetic towards their owners. Oh you arrived from work or a 3 month holiday, well I do not really care.

Where my dogs in my mind, which is based entirely on my feelings, will take a bullet for me if they could.

I love Mint 22 so far, it really has matured where my home computer is running Mint is more stable than my work computer running Windows 11, luckily my company uses CrowdStrike so nothing to worry there.

But really I now recommend Mint to my non tech savvy friends and family, as a person who uses Linux should! But joking aside took my sister’s old laptop running Windows 7, slapped a SSD and upped the ram to 8 GB into it with Mint and she has been happy

I understand that Epic funded their project to be an Epic exclusive, but was that a financially sound decision excluding the major market place. Could they not have worked in like a two year or three year exclusive period

Yeah I feel there is a weird history between steam and remedy media. Like I remember when you could one day buy Alan Wake like really cheap since it was being taken off steam. Then the Epic deal making Alan Wake 2 exclusive basically meant they excluded a lot of customers immediately on steam.

Capacity yes, what about production, that is the inflection point. But well done China, even if I do not agree on most things, the great green wall and their dominating the renewable energy market is commendable

Would love a story line that starts normal but then goes off the rails. I do not want you to copy this guy but maybe take inspiration from Andrew Rousso, he made a video called Moist on YouTube, starts normal but eventually you are taken on a journey and come out the other side like mind blown, worth the 7 minutes

I really hope this will be a lesson to other developers that signing up for Epic money to be an Epic exclusive means you exclude a huge chunk of the PC market.

Your right, I don’t think anyone actively cares about Soviet eastern Germany anymore

Yeah windows 8 was terrible. Windows 11 was not that bad, enjoyed it a bit, except that nagging feeling I am being mined for data. But what killed it for me is the instabilities, my PC stuttered and froze like crazy, and all they say is do a clean install. So I clean installed, Mint that is

That sounds like the obsessive devotion that the Linux community needs. Great storry

Yeah cinnamon, they have the balance of just enough customisation if you want to fiddle and plain enough that a noob can just start working with it

Yeah, Steam really is an asset and ally to Linux gaming scene. So glad the steam deck worked out for them after their failed steam machine failure, shows they don’t give up on their vision but also change and adapt to come up on top.

Yeah, it’s a nice almost out of the box and getting started distro. I have tried Arch and Manjoro about 8 years ago, not for me, nice customisation but it is really too bleeding edge with the rough edges that go with it. After trying a crap load of distros I like the boringness of Mint
