I only played Arma 3 for a very short time online but I spent quite some time in the simulator because I utterly feared to suck online (just like I spent more time with bots in CS2 than online). It was a glorious moment when I took over flying a heli in an online match and successfully transported a crew of players to the target location first try. I died pretty quick in the ensuing urban warfare though.

Und Ben Shapiro. Dito bezüglich der Aversion gegenüber beiden. Seine Argumentation war, dass das Einschalten der FCC dumm ist, da "der Stiefel irgendwann auch wieder auf dem anderen Fuß sitzt", was in sich ja auch scheinheilig ist, da es ihm damit ja scheinbar nicht um die Meinungsfreiheit an sich geht, sondern nur um die eventuelle Rache der Gegenseite, falls diese noch mal an die Macht kommt.

You should definitely watch "A Fish Called Wanda" though. It's a classic.

Sehe ich überhaupt nicht. Last Week Tonight bringt doch konstant bissige Sendungen über die Verwerfungen in Olivers Wahlheimat.

"We must also be real. We must be honest with the population. Having an armed citizenry comes with a price, and that is part of liberty... We need to be very clear that you’re not going to get gun deaths to zero. It will not happen. But I think it’s worth it. I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year, so that we can have the Second Amendment"


"I can’t stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that does a lot of damage."


"They were actually better in the 1940s. It was bad. It was evil. But what happened? Something changed. They committed less crimes." - Kirk über die Jim Crow Gesetze in deren Folge Rassentrennung in allen öffentlichen Einrichtungen und tausende Lynchmorde verübt wurden.

"I have a very, very radical view on this, but I can defend it, and I’ve thought about it. We made a huge mistake when we passed the Civil Rights Act in the 1960s." - Kirk zu den Gesetzen die eben die Zustände der Jim Crow Gesetze abschafften.


Kirk was asked what he would want his daughter to do if she were 10 years old and pregnant following rape.

"The answer is yes. The baby would be delivered"


"A man who calls himself trans is wearing ‘woman face,’ no different than I would wear Black face trying to be a Black person. It’s assuming an identity that isn’t yours"


"Black women do not have brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person's slot"


"Engage in reality more… Reject feminism. Submit to your husband, Taylor. You’re not in charge"


"If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, ‘Boy, I hope he’s qualified.’"


"Thou shall lay with another man, shall be stoned to death. Just saying... The chapter...affirms God’s perfect law when it comes to sexual matter"


Sag noch map schnell was Mr. Kimmel alles so schlimmes gesagt hat und was aus dem First Amendment geworden ist.

I'd wait for sales of your games instead. I tried one fitgirl release on EndeavourOS I had from my Windows days (which ran perfectly on there) recently. Tried with Bottles and Lutris and the latter worked eventually but the performance was subpar and it was quite a hassle to get it to run as I had to try many proton versions with a lot of restarts and black screens. Steam and Heroic games run fine though.

Do I understand the article and github issue correctly and we can put away the pitchforks already because they fixed the specific part already and it's now even more performant than GNU coreutils?

Correct. It seems to be a given at every election now. This time in the most populated state in Germany, North Rhine-Westphalia in the municipal elections (local representatives in councils and governors). Their votes grew from 5.1% to 16.5%. That's aggravating as AfD usually makes jumps that big only in East-Germany and NRW is usually center left. But it was expectable that the sheep let themselves lull in by populists and eventually choose their own butcher again with some very promising & sane alternatives opposed to the US two party system e.g.

Luckily we have some good liberal and leftist influencers who have managed to pull a lot of younger people out of the grip of the extreme right, but I fear it's way to less influence. We have our Nick Fuenteses too.

Better install Windows 10 IoT and get support till Jan 2032. As a Bonus the, so I heard, best version of Windows 10 will probably phone home minimally to never, won't rearrange your startmenu, won't install Candy Crush again and maybe not reset settings so aggressively after updates. Can imagine stuff like news, wallpaper of the day or the graphics in the search bar is left out too.

Find installation instructions here. Seems they're inofficially tolerated by Microsoft, because it's hosted on Github and the iso's come from MS, AFAIK. I want to try it on Proxmox where I installed 10 with GPU pass-through recently. Using Linux for 8 years now after being a long time Windows user.

IIRC they offer a way to install 11 without the hardware restrictions too on above site. I don't know how the gaming situation on 10 (IoT) is and and how much Nvidia, AMD and Intel will still support 10 from now on.

Edit: corrected send too early cut off sentence

My motorola broke recently. Was stuck to an older Android, got security patches very seldomly and no Lineage rom existed anyway.

Had a small Redmi 7A lying around. Installed Lineage and that little thing is running Android 15 now and everything works and feels sufficiently snappy. Antenna podcasts, Drastic DS Emulator (which recently was taken off the store), Nextcloud integration, Aegis Authenticator, Vivaldi, Boost, KDE Connect, DuoLingo, Signal, Mastodon, Organic Maps all run without any hassle. Camera and telephony works perfectly. Will continue using it for a while as I kinda like the form factor and I don't need NFC or other fancy features. A stellar job by LineageOS devs for taking care of such dated hardware. If they accept donations I sure will spare a few eurodollars soon.
