gog has always been so anal about linux though, that it kind of feels like a epic games to me. you can’t have a platform ran on drm free games, and then when people want to play them on linux (the “drm free” platform), they ignore and alienate them.

i’ve never liked the idea of having to come out of the closet. I want to be able to say “oh, my boyfriend cooked my lunch, I don’t know what spices he used, i can ask him”, without it turning into “oh i didn’t know you were gay, thanks for letting me know, so brave” or something weird. we were talking about lunch, not who i like to sleep with

i’d recognize gparted everywhere

how cool and sexy and irrestible i became

to the right people ^^

the only thing i can see is WWWWEEEE

i think the most important part is that if they switch to linux, you are now their IT support, and they will rely on you. be patient and understanding with them, even if stuff is not necessarily broken.

i never say lgbt, it feels heavy, especially with the full lgbtqia (I already don’t know what can come after)

i use gay for any kind of not straight sexuality, and queer to me also includes trans stuff, ace, aro…

we’re not cis and or straight, we’re queer

colors get fucked up when you increase contrast though

casper seems to be for all ubuntu based distros, so including linux mint

i can’t find any fish sauce where i live. do you go to a specific kind of shop for it, or is it just available at the grocery store ?

if you’re not aware of that whole thing, the issue is not that mojang is banning people for using slurs, it’s that their list of bad words with way too broad, and you might get banned for saying “night” or I think even “zzzzz” or whatever things you might say as you’re going to sleep.

banning for slur, yes very good banning for a word that’s in a naughty list that’s not bad or even pretty common, that’s silly

any recent laptop (or even older stuff) would work pretty well with linux. just make sure that you can have access to the BIOS or UEFI. I personally like AMD hardware, but Intel and Nvidia work just as well.

if you can afford it, System 76, Framework, or other linux first manufacturers are nice, but otherwise any normal laptop should work.

If you’re bringing it to school, consider the weight and size, also the backpack you’ll put it in. Big screen is good, but more annoying to carry around. I have a tiny 13" that I bring between home and work, which works great, because apart from meetings, I never actually use the screen. Might consider the keyboard too, but unless you go apple, I feel like laptop keyboards are always gonna be “eh”

Guild Wars 2 works without issue, though if that’'s specifically what you want to play, Guild Wars 2 works better with a good CPU and an SSD, whereas the GPU would be good but doesn’t need to be great. That of course depends game per game, just I know that Guild Wars 2 specifically relies a lot on the CPU, and without a SSD it will stutter.

i hate talking to the tv or any device

thanks ! ^^

do you mean a custom lockscreen ? is that a thing ? is it actually good at keeping the phone locked ?

lawnchair is open source and on fdroid

sideloading is a whole thing on android. don’t like the options that the play store gives you ? fdroid has your back

is revolt good ? I’m in no desilusion that i’d be able to make my friends move away from discord, but maybe for new communities ?

so far it’s really nice, it’s what I liked in reddit and before that forums, without being what reddit became.

the fediverse is hard though, but it kinda makes sense. I’ll see if I get more used to it
