The only native GNU/Linux games that I trust to work are those you can compile from source.

CS2 seems to just be its own skill issue with how it handles shaders, does forcing proton resolve anything (or does Valve just block you from online play like they do if you force TF2 to run under proton?) I doubt it does though.

Big animal big win.

that I don't get to play the games that won't work on Linux

Which you can count on your hand at this point. For me, if a game doesn't work under proton then it's the weird one.

The larger issue of course is migrating which will always be difficult and the most painful part of the process.

Probably some brainworms about how government is inherently slow and bad.

I'm now starting to believe xiaohongshu when they said Trump was a strategy to delegitimize government oversight required for social programs.

Whereas Universal healthcare and LLMs have both pros and cons

Often the truth is somewhere in the middle.

Oh materialism in a communist way, thats why google’s definition didn’t make sense.

Psychic damage.

so you're using LLMs for programming, what have you created? What problems have you solved to make peoples lives better.

I machine generated social media web app slop.

oh.

Is this a Jojo reference.

One of the key issues is that disabled people can't build the accessibility they need to participate. There's no "contributions welcome" that one can say.

It's a very dire situation, but I'm glad this is getting more attention in the community. This is probably one of the most important blogposts I've read in a while.

I would agree but this new generation of programmers arent even going to get that far.

Real "you just press the run button on your IDE" hours.

"I dislike LLMs because the societal/material inputs needed to sustain it are not feasible nor are they sustainable"

"Umm, but that doesn't get you a job cause it's going to be like... The future broo like coding isnt going to exist anymore."

This is what my peers sound like. I'm only doing a CS degree because I want to stay an undergrad for a few more years and its my second degree.

Genuinely frustrating and these brainworms have infected Chinese high-tech industries as well. Like stfu China your AI hype train isnt going to fast track commuism (mostly shanghai/shenzhen brainworms)

Unlimited bullying of all techbros.

Someone would use a word like "proliferate" and he would assume it meant "pro-life."

NGL this is funny AF. Its like a Ricky bit from trailer park boys.

My intro to CS course had zero assigned readings. Absolutely no reading was given. No student came out with any foundational insight other than the white boomer professors incoherent rambling about how CS is not like math.

Our most complicated problem in that course was opening a file and writing the contents of a nested list into it in Python. Nothing else was taught so its not like anybody could come out from that course and actually program anything (not to mind the professor endorsing chatgpt use while also forbidding its use for assignments which were just writing code solutions to problems that boil down to a map and filter transformation)

My older siblings who now is employed by Amazon had to teach themselves network programming after they were hired to do what is essentially toilet plumbing for AWS.

CS is a joke fucking field and most of these numbskulls actively enjoy it being simultaneously elitist and washed down. Zero materialist thought too, talking to these clowns youd think computers grow on trees or something.

They do all this and the levels in the game are going to be the player slowly being fed exposition while doing menial tasks.

GTA 5 had the same hype cycle and that game was actually a design regression from GTA 4.

GTA6 will probably be 120GB at least

And cost $120.

American cops and Israeli cops train together. "Cop city" in Atlanta has deep ties to the Israeli occupation so they've already been killing yankees from that alone.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Israel, is in fact, USA/Israel, or as I've recently taken to calling it, USA plus Israel. Israel is not a country unto itself, but rather another illegal occupaton of a fully functioning USA empire made useful by the US Armed Forces, the Central Intelligence Agency and vital imperial components comprising a full empire as defined by any competent dictionary.

Many Palestinians get murdered by the USA empire every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the illegal occupation which is widely used for murdering Palestinians today is often called Israel, and many of its victims are not aware that it is basically the USA empire, developed by the colonizers who genocided almost all of the Native Americans a few centuries ago.

There really is an Israel, and these people are getting murdered by it, but it is just a part of the empire they are victims of. Israel is the illegal occupation: a part of the empire which resides on land that belongs to someone else who did not consent to getting murdered or having their land taken away. The illegal occupation is an essential part of the empire, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete empire. Israel is normally used in combination with the USA empire: the whole empire is basically USA with Israel added, or USA/Israel. All the so-called Israel distributions are really distributions of USA/Israel!

copypasta bit aside, it would be a blunder to openly state your hostility to Israel because it will only make you the next target of the US sanctions regime (a sanctions war is already being doled out to the entire world). The US would most likely use any Chinese sanction of Israel as the excuse for all out war which neither side would be able to control not to mention what the stage would be like for smaller AES/Global South nations like Vietnam.

The WPK in the DPRK having the most consistent position on Israel (does not exist has never existed) stems from them already being made into a global pariah for decades by the US (which has led to millions of deaths). Many capitalist Global South countries with centrist or socdem governments have so much more to lose.

Sorry that your instructor is a fraud techbro. Most CS professors are like this because the field itself has been privatized and captured by silicon valley which desperately want this fad to last just a bit longer so they can bully and threaten the proletariat even more.

Please inject the part 9 jojo into me. I need my funny troupe of queer neurodivergent lumpenproletariat youngsters to rob settler Italians in Hawaii.

(yes this was a thinly-veiled advertisement for jojo part 9).

Also the fertility rate crisis thing has been a common orientalist trope in bourgeois media. I've only really seen it applied to East and Southeast Asian industrialized nations. Inevitably to bourgeois authors, it either has no solution or leads into Malthusian rabbit holes.

Did someone say lambda?
