they're not even arguments they're just simple statements of fact, i'm not even saying the beliefs are good, these are communist beliefs, factually. There's nothing to argue.

Bazzite makes it ridiculously easy, there's just a dropdown to select the nvidia version of their ISO. It's also a great distro for beginners for a lot of reasons:

bazzite and other immutables generate a new system for you on update and let you switch between and rollback automatically, this is fantastic for reliability, but it also has pretty up to date software, and tons of guides (fedora is one of the most popular distros, and bazzite is essentially identical except with some QoL upgrades).

there's also aurora if you want the same thing without some addons for gamers.

Your response indicates you've never actually engaged with any anarchist philosophers or thought before, let me ask you this, do you really think no anarchist philosopher EVER thought of any of those points? Research the beliefs of bakunin, kropotkin, and the likes before giving strong opinions on anarchism, else you look unbelievably ignorant to anyone who actually is familiar with the material.

Central authority and law is meant to kept that chaos in check.

Law, sure, central authority? It does the opposite, it causes a great deal of misery and chaos. It is unchecked power held by few who won't give it up under any circumstances, it maximizes the chaos of humanity. Freedom and democracy are the only counter-balance, and anarchists just want to maximize democracy.

Given your example, what would happen if two groups in the same town both elected their own police force with wildly different directives?

Both groups would show up to the meeting and either reach consensus or leave it to a democratic vote. I want to point out that this has NEVER happened in any anarchist society, why do you think this is a likely scenario? If they were absolutely deadset, I suppose there could be a schism, but there's no historical reference for this, because why would this ever happen?

Please, if you're going to try a gotcha argument like this, engage with the material and look for a historic reference. This WHAT IF THIS HAPPENS? can be done with any ideology, if there's no historic reference for it, then sure, it could cause a disaster, but it hasn't ever so why should I care? I can come up with countless theoretical disasters, and real ones for capitalism.

What happens when you give those cops the means to enforce their directives and they decide to enact their own rules?

They'll do poorly at the next town meeting and probably be demoted/swapped out...

How would you even get them to do their job without a centrally backed currency?

They can choose not to do it, of course. There's an idea of mutual aid, I scratch your back, you scratch mine, the people would be grateful for them doing a good job and would help them elsewise, as just one example. Mutualism actually has various currency-related anarchist strategies, a central authority is not needed for making a currency valid, I don't know why you believe that premise to be the case.

you probably wouldn't notice any difference between kde and lxde in this case.

it's important to distinguish the distro and the desktop environment as two different things, lubuntu is just ubuntu with lxde installed.

tbh if you're on linux there's kind of an easy workaround

pactl load-module module-combine-sink sink_name='Stream' slaves='easyeffects_sink'

^^ I have this aliased as "gamesound"

easyeffects is great for this because it'll just be the default sink, plus easyeffects makes your mic sound good anyway. (if you configure it for that)

then when the game opens i set it to output to "stream" and bam i can output game audio in a stream without capturing anything else, since i'm on hyprland i can also stream just the window, discord screenshare with audio everywhere.

That's not true at all, that guy even wants a second one implanted for even more functionality, and he's extremely happy with it.

a bunch of threads retracted but it still works, plus it seems they fixed that for future ones

edit: guys look i know elon musk bad but these are really the facts http://youtube.com/watch?v=Xlv4biIY6JI

Way less, even better performance than native windows in some cases

to see all the calls for literal and actual (and not joking… not really) murder of people who participate in such wildly anti-communist practices as … “have bank accounts”.

I'm gonna need a source for this, that sounds too insane to be believable, and i've never seen anything like that.

They didn't though? Source?

...he literally said firefox was better than most in the post? I don't understand why you believe mozilla to be above criticism just because they're better than google

and why bother criticizing a company so laughably awful as google, try saying you use chrome on a post, everyone will recommend you switch.

Pretty sure her last name is actually ruckus
