Have you tried Bottles and/or Wine?

I've never had a problem running anything from the Adobe or Microsoft Suite for example, in fact I think they run waaay smoother on linux

But yea I get it, a lot of people associate compatibility with gaming only.

It's not the people casting no-votes who are the problem, it's the two-party state that divides and conquers us all. I mean the majority of the public doesn't support the genocide in gaza, but here we are bickering with each other because we don't get a voice...

Would you recommend this to someone interested?

Well... they do hang out in the public torrents of movies, games, shows, etc.

That's how they get IP addresses and have their bots send DMCA notices.

I lived in a place that cost 800$ a month for a room in the bay area and I was taking home more than 60% of my income working full time.

It's doable, and it doesn't mean only rich people aren't rent burdened...

Have you checked out Protondb.com ?

It's been a lifesaver gaming wise. Nice to know most games do and can run on linux, it's usually the ones with some sort of online anti-cheat that don't run.

I read an article that China, while yes they are the outspending US in fusion research, also have exponentially more PhD's working on the research as well.

Just get a PC? Parts prices are low right now and they are far more useful than a console that has a "planned expiration" every 5-10 years.

I'll share what a Harvard professor and copyright lawyer sent me in an email:

I write with a gloomy update for the Hachette v. Internet Archive appeal in the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals: The court affirmed the lower court's decision about CDL, and ruled that Internet Archive's Open Libraires program was NOT a fair use.

One shining moment though, was that the court ruled that a "Donate Now" button does not indicate "commercial use" for purposes of the fair use argument. (Phew!)

There is more to unpack here, but we will be hosting a series of CFR talks in the coming weeks to discuss the decision and it's implications.

she strikes me as the sort of person who listens to constructive feedback.> Is there a particular event or thing I can look up that she did to give you that impression?

Finding a good MusicBee alternative on linux. I just dual boot into windows whenever I need to convert FLACs and organize it. Otherwise I'm on Linux 99% of the time now.

Fiduciary responsibility to delay change and proactively be part of the problem.
