Yeah it's my biggest gripe. Communities should be blended like how the federation worked on IRC. We would all be connecting through different servers in that network but channel #comicsbooks would bring us to the same room to chat in. It should be the same for lemmy.

I don't see it happening, ubuntu tried and backed out last second years ago. Project mangers just get fussy about putting in resources they don't directly see the use of. It's like that new manger you get that thinks they should remove all these processes as they don't see the use with them. Then slowly as they learn the hard way add all of them back.

It doesn't need to be always for sale to be preserved my copy is still there and it's still playable. It's only lost of those that paid for it can't play it.

I know it sounds stupid but i could be as easy as hitting alt+enter. It's worked for me in the past

Yep i honestly think that's why the steam deck is not available in retell in the US. MICROSOFT probably has a clause in place that would remove any license discounts from the big OEMs if their machines are stocked with Linux machines.

Very interesting I learned something new thanks

Ah that makes sense i know Brazil has laws to keep imports low. That's why Brazil kept the saga mega drive active for so long. So having Linux on machines makes sense. Since it's both an import and not an import at the same time.

It just goes to show you. The only way to get the Linux desktop market share up is not building. Something better than Windows we have been there for a while. It's make hardware, put Linux on that hardware and sell it in a store. Avg people don't change operating systems. They change computers. Now if we could just get steam decks in retail stores. It would be a huge.

For those don't know Neil Breen. He is known for using VHS camcorder and a CT Scanner made out of paper in his movies.

Like there be one for Covid then another one for ebola. Generic ribbons for each mass shooting.

I know it's dark but they need to be recognized. In the Army we would joke our ribbons were our PTSD listed out our chest. Figured it's the same for them.

Like they construct the world for each day? Like you see them putting up mailboxes and painting the roads.

If someone is dead they should stay dead this is how art dies. It's easier to keep recycling the same time shit over and over. I want to see what the new generation brings to the table.

I was just thinking about the word social media as a term answer how it relates to regular media.

Like what is regular media? it's someone that is paid to entertain you for money or influence you for people that pay them for power.

Now the word social media if it relates to old media what would it be at face value. It's a person that is paid to make you feel like you have a social connection with them for money influence you for people that pay them that want power.

Like what was social connections on the internet before the rise of social media.

It was forums and if we look at that word what is it as face value from the word itself its meeting or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged.

Ideas to be exchanged everyone was equal there was no media personalities no popularity contests. No followers just a group of people sharing ideas around a common interest.

How off base am I? did I miss anything in my reasoning here?

Please correct me if I'm wrong, might have breathed in too many soap fumes.

Token Ring sends the packets to every node by passing it from one node and if that node is not the recipient it passes it on to the next node.

Memos were created the day before with a list of recipients then it was passed around till everyone on the list had read it.

the moment McConnell filibuster his own bill. I knew the GOP had gone full clown show. It's one's thing to disagree on policy and be against the people but I stop taking them seriously. When their whole platform is political maneuvering amd being anti Democrat. It's almost like we're living in a key and Peele sketch.

i kind of hate this because the keys are not incorporeal. So while the ghost can go through the door with ease the keys can't even if the ghost could interact with the keys in the first place. 😜

alternative headline "steam users have a ton of games they got from a humble bundle for super cheap and we didn't take that into account and used the msrp value of each game for this shocking headline."

Also some games don't count time on older games. i know I have games like half life 2 episode 1 that i have beaten that show I never played them since I played them before they started tracking time.
