  • It’s going. Currently, I’m on Bazzite and it’s doing well enough for my purposes, but Nvidia support on Linux is so shitty that I’m still not sure if it’s worth it. I still keep a dual-boot of Windows for gaming, since a lot of stuff just flat-out doesn’t work and the logs point me to unresolved issues with my drivers. A lot of simple games work out of the box, but it seems like anything online and anything requiring real horsepower requires me to be on Windows to work.

    Aside from that, I do basically everything else in Linux, but I don’t really consider that to be high praise. It’d be almost impressive if it struggled with basic internet browsing and video-streaming, though even that hasn’t been perfect. I remember having some issues with certain webplayers trying to use Opera on Ubuntu, but I haven’t noticed any issue with Firefox on Bazzite.

    I’m still not 100% on Atomic distros. It kinda feels like I have someone standing over my shoulder saying “No, don’t change that.” I think with how much of a novice I am, I actually need that. I’ve definitely bricked OS’ in the past by not fully understanding the commands I’m executing. However, it does feel limiting in a bad way.

    Yeah delivery has become such a fucking shitshow. I shelled out the money for a PO Box, which seems like the only solution in the U.S., because in my experience FedEx and UPS are not functioning companies; they’re scammers that take money from corporations to lose packages.


  • It feels kinda insane to me to think she’s going to be primed relatively soon. I returned to Warframe in-between Voruna and Citrine, so it feels like she’s still a “new” frame in my head.

    I really wish her passive was just…anything. 25hp/s is just so useless, and that’s after you build it up. It’s nice to kinda counteract the self damage from Combat Discipline, but could honestly be 50 or even 100hp/s without being seriously that strong.

    Otherwise, I’m a big fan of the “mostly self-interested warframe that happens to buff their team.” I wish I saw her more frequently, and hopefully once she’s Primed more people get a chance to play with her.






  • Beyond the fact that impeachement won’t actually do anything, unless you naively think the third time will be the charm, this fundamentally misconstrue’s America’s problem to be just Trump. His removal or death will not be the end of this; Trump is merely a symptom of a larger disease that neoliberals refuse to confront.

    The sad truth is that there is no quick snappy soundbite that will magically solve the generational rot at the core of the United States. Many of the people protesting needed to be at our side decades ago, and people need to prepare themselves for decades of work before things actually improve.


  • how can I get a place to live without a job, and how do I get a job without a place to live?" situation.

    as someone who went through this exact situation, I decided to just say “fuck it” and kinda threw myself out into the universe, with the understanding that if I failed the landing I was probably just going to die. I was homeless for a little bit, and the first job I had was a lot shittier than anything I’d worked before, but it is possible. The biggest issue I’d say is the lack of education; however, my partner at the time only had a high school diploma and was able to leverage his service industry experience to quickly find work.
