Maybe check out Kagi’s ultimate tier. They let you swap between some of the different options to see which you might find useful. As a bonus you also get kagi search which can be useful.

Be the change you want to see!

Anyway those are probably the lowest effort content which is why you see it most. Over time though the other forms will come. Most of Reddits front-page is memes and news for the same reason.

Is it just my hardware?

It is not your hardware

Am i using linux just wrongly for years?

Not really

Is it my fault?

Not really

The main issue from what I can tell is you are trying to play older windows games which can be pretty hit or miss. More recent pc games often support the steam deck which is usually a good sign for compatibility.

Gaming on Linux has greatly improved over the last couple years (especially thanks to proton/steam deck) but if you are trying to run older games that were never designed to run to it or you want to play online games with aggressive anti-cheat it is still going to be a bit of a struggle.

I would recommend sticking to an Arch based distro like EndeavourOS (as it is similar to the SteamOS) or a Debain based distro and not swap around too much so you can get a feel for it without having a bunch of things change on you all the time like package names and the like.

All that said if your jam is older windows games and you have access to windows and are tired of messing with the OS and just want to play games just use windows, try linux another day.

Some games are trickier than others for sure. Are you using protondb as a reference?

Anno 1404 is a 15 year old game with aggressive DRM so I could tell right away that it would be one of the more tricky titles.

I’ve been trying fin Droid which works well but it’s definitely a work in progress.

I mean that is true but there is some nuance.

At one time it was a cheap way to protect your site from drive by scripts and make your users help pay for that protection.

They still work in that way on say the comment section of a tiny WordPress blog because the cost to solve them isn’t worth what a random boner pill ad is worth.

The issue now (made worse recently by LLMs) is that more bots then ever are scraping any and every thing so people are putting captchas on every bit of every web app content they have. This increases the work of your users while it only slows down the bots. The hope is that the cost to solve is slightly higher than the value of the data.

As a casual baseball fan I like the pitch clock, keeps things moving along aha.

I actually think coed would be more interesting. You could have a female pitcher for the women and a male pitcher for the men.

It would add another depth of strategy about which positions are played by which players.

Were they not taking bets on college games?

The word cancelled has lost all meaning.

Funny you say that ah

For real though I use a down stream arch distro.

Installing arch manually is a good learning experience but I’ve got other things to do.

I understand it’s not for everyone but I jumped ship to Linux 10 years ago or so. The defining moment was me disabling Cortana only to have her reappear after an update.

At least with Linux when I’m fighting the OS it doesn’t feel like the OS developers are fighting back.

I go there to buy Nintendo games because I don’t trust Nintendo not to do weird crap with their digital goods.

I mean they give you 100 searches to try before asking you to pay so the opportunity cost to find out is pretty low.

Except when it comes to SSDs.

Under some work loads they just get chewed to bits long before they are obsolete.

I keep telling people metric time is where it’s at but they just look at me like I’m crazy

www.cookingforengineers.com is one I enjoy. The recipe charts are pretty much all you need but the more detailed bits can help.

I’m liking it. The one thing I think is missing is it is sorta difficult to get critical mass for a community. It would be nice if we could have “meta” communities which just combine every instances community with the same name. It would likely be very problematic moderation wise but it would help get critical mass in a lot of places.

Half the time it would just be a Sysco product list.

I suppose it depends on how you define content. Usually when people post it includes some discussion. Those types of posts get drowned in the bot posts however.

What resources? The cost to print those messages is so small and shouldered by the manufacturer. The government doesn’t care it’s going to cost another half cent per cigarette wrapper and the majority of legally purchased cigarette cost is tax at this point.

I more curious if they will have to be printed on the big bags of smokes people get from the resi.
