  • i switched over to Bazzite about a week ago, and it has been super frustrating. though it’s not in where you think. the game my group is playing (Arc Raiders) worked without a hitch.

    • but my speaker system, and microphone forced me to learn a whole lot about USB hand shakes,
    • ghost usb profiles,
    • usb cable choice,
    • what a flatpac is and why people hate it,
    • nano eccentricities (including how to save and quit, just labeling ctrl-o as save and not overwrite would stop so much bs),
    • sink states,
    • device name resolution,
    • pipewire,
    • pipe plumber,
    • pipe wire holding devices hostage,
    • usb power flapping because i plugged my speakers and my mic to close to each other causing the os to just give up on the both of them.
    • the timing of when the os asks for usb identifiers, verses when the usb devices are given power
    • out dated guides relying on depreciated methods and acceptable code used in modifiers to os procedure.

    my experience and days of trouble shooting the “easy” replacement os for gaming has frightened my friend group far away from linux.



  • the US military hasn’t won against an insurgency since that one was squashed in 1950 and before that was 1902. that is considering the us has untouchable industrial military complex, unbroken supply lines, and a monopoly on advanced tech.

    an uprising IN THE CONTINENTAL US would be absolutely DEVASTATING. where all our infestructure is protected by a civil agreement not to destroy them… and with a nation as large as ours and armed as ours… arguments that the military just can’t be beat because of weaponry is laughable






  • well because 3 times the premium cost is still far below the cost of surgery. i am currently recovering from the removal of a cyst in my jaw that ate half my jaw leaving bone barely 3 playing cards thick in some areas. there was nothing i could have done to avoid it. the surgery too make the marsupilisation to drain the area alone was $3500, with only pain numbing. still awaiting the final surgery cost, but the anastegeologist is $1500 that i have to pay. and the stitches from my mandolin accident costs me an additional $1500.

    this is ALL what i have to pay, while i have silver level coverage
