Why not both at the same time?

Using Linux isn't hard. Switching to Linux is hard.

Fractions are just funky when dividing. Dividing by 0.5 is the same multiplying by 2.

Your analogy is really close, but backwards is all. If you have a quarter of an apple. In order to get half a whole apple, you need another quarter. Two quarters make a half, so dividing a quarter by 0.5 gives you 2 quarters. Dividing a quarter by 2 gives you 0.5 of the original quarter which is your 1/8th

I'm in a similar boat, but I never feel fully satisfied to release a song (probably cuz I am a hobbyist and I suck lol).

But regardless, I think there is an element of selling your soul to Hollywood to really make it big, and I just don't have that kind of commitment at this point in my life. I like relaxing and anonymity.

Nah, social media is like a hydra. Another "TikTok" will just be born from the ban.

Nothing is changing drastically until we have better data protection laws.

Facts. We need better data protection laws, especially now more than ever with the rise of AI

I wanna like Linux but I play too many games with anti-cheats that just don't work on Linux yet :(

I agree with this. Pixel A series are pretty much the smoothest android experience for cheap. Plus they have a pretty good camera as a bonus. The low end Chinese phones and even the Samsung A series just don't quite do it for me. I think OneUI was made for faster hardware.

Keep in mind most of them are barely different from each other. It's mostly a regional thing with laws, but a lot of them will recycle the panels or SoCs.

I mean if you get urban and rural, what's there not to get about the suburbs? It's the best and worst of both. More open lands and less congestion but also rush hour sucks and people suck at driving. It's far to go get something, but car rides with buddies is its own fun.

How about the both of them being friends and going on journeys together where they clash worldviews and compromise together

It's the new "4k". Just buzzwords to get clicks.

UsernameIsTooLon , 3 months ago to linuxmemes in Steam on Linux

HDR and anti-cheats are the main reasons I can't fully switch over. I am niche and particular about things so I do think I'd enjoy Linux if it weren't for the games I play. I have an OLED display and too many hours in Valorant. It's like I accidentally upgraded out of Linux.

Doesn't mean people can't change. Kids just wanna feel powerful/invincible. I used to say and hear the craziest of slurs in cod lobbies back in the day. My friends and I who have said those things have just grown up when we learned their real impact and we've stopped.

Instead of having faith in God, I have faith in the next generation to do slightly better each time. I can't really bring it to myself to tell my grandma there's no heaven or hell and her entire life has been a lie. Ignorance is truly bliss sometimes.
