It’s really not and you’ve missed their point. Tbqh it’s more about you than about them.

Ditto. Windows is now impossible to decrapify. Have dipped my toe in Linux gaming about a half dozen times starting in 2004 but it never felt ready til now. Proton, nvidia drivers and distros like Nobara making it not just possible but a better experience.

IRC, bulletin boards that had links to each other…. The old net was decentralised by default.

Nice to see someone else was around when the lore was written :D

In NZ instead of AOL it was xtra and Paradise.

It’s a sarcastic take on common advice. It’s implied by the inanity of the suggestion. Most people got it, wasn’t something you saw. You’ll get it next time :).

Wholeheartedly agree. Not too many more though I hope. Once a platform reaches a certain point all the general public arrives and everything goes to shit. You have to keep your corner of the internet nerdyish to avoid this. Been true since the early 2000s for forums and then social media.

Definitely. As a non-US sports fan, where we’ve had television reviews in some sports (cricket) since the 1990s on certain types of plays, this is very welcome to see. The referees should be allowed to let common sense prevail.

Good move imo. Dudes not ready to be Udonis, still wants to compete so moving to a team where he can is the right thing for him.

You're not wrong but I don't see what that has to do with my point, which was - don't blame distros for this. They can influence the conversation but not control it. If you find what you want isn't supported then pick something that supports most things like Ubuntu, or Nobara.

Driver support is down to the manufacturer. Distros can’t give you things that don’t exist.
