Heroic Games Launcher allows you to install almost any game from GOG, Epic and Amazon and play on Linux just like Steam does. Can even have the games added to be launch from Steam automatically. Great for Steam Deck and desktop.

When the fuck did I write this?

But seriously, we’re boned. Doing everything I can to give my family a good life and have cushion for the future. You’re 100% correct though, almost don’t care if society collapses at this point.

Oh, I’m not shitting on Valve or anything. Just explaining how they could be called a casino.

Loot boxes are effectively gambling as there is no guarantee on what you’ll get. People in general can get addicted to the rush of getting that rare item the first time (which is usually what happens with a first open to get you hooked) and then either buy more loot boxes or the keys to open them.

100% agreed. Assumptions were made. It’s all good. Communication is key to understanding differences and growing.

Not sure how you got puritanical from that. It’s actually medical. Anything in excess will damage your body. I’m just as concerned for people’s bodily health as I am their spiritual health.

I think it says more about their actual beliefs in God. As a Christ follower, I believe everyone has their own path to take. If drugs in moderation is one of them, go for it. Hell, it’s theorized Moses was tripping on shrooms when talking to God.

Those who fear being exposed to “other” things will take them away from God (beyond addiction, that’s a whole other thing), then they never believed in the first. They just use it as a shield to justify their horrible actions.

No, we’re a minority. Not third class. Hell, Android itself runs the Linux kernel. Should be a few slaps of paint to get it working. (I know it’s much more complicated than that.)

Only when it stops getting views. These and similar types of videos can garner views, which can then in turn garner money. If it’s a low-effort/high-reward scenario, why not try it?

I don’t like them anymore than you do cause they’re so predictable but it makes people laugh and thus want more. That 10 second dopamine rush is addictive.

Thanks for mentioning GalliumOS! I’ll be putting that on my SO’s old Chromebook now.

His cult is so used to seeing fake images that they have a hard time telling reality from fiction. They have to constantly photoshop him into looking like a strong man that they’ve forgotten what a unfit, blob of a man he really looks like.

Because the Steam Deck is just computer hardware. I can already install whatever OS I want to and Steam won’t know that it’s a Steam Deck anymore.

Saying the Steam Deck is digital only is like saying a tower computer is digital only. That’s purely false. If you can put it on a tower computer, you can put it on the Steam Deck.

All the Steam Deck, like many modern tower computers, needs for physical copies is a USB media reader.

How are you trying to connect it?

Interesting, when I took Waymo, it was cheaper than Uber and Lyft, pre tip.

Going off what fishpen0 said, Waymo actually has sensors on it to detect things and can “understand” its surroundings much better than Tesla cars can wish just cameras.

I’ve ridden in Waymos and they are smooth riding. After the initial “OMG! There’s no driver!” You kind of forget about it. You get to your (limited area) destination safely and without much hassle.

I can go more in depth if ya want.

Going off of SMCF, it really depends on how liquid you are and what country you’re in.

If you’re in the US, I have SoFi and 4.5%/APY on my savings account. Gotta have your direct deposit or move $5k monthly into the checking. If you can swing that, it’s a great bank. I think Ally does similar.

Most major brick and mortar banks are shite for accruing interest money.

That’s a good version of it too.

LMAO OK. You got me with that one.

Whenever someone says that, my reply is “So is a fire. Go jump in one and let me know how it feels.” 🤣
