I wouldn't say it's the definition, but I agree this is not surprising.
Toxic masculinity is much more though. Men bullying men because they do something "not manly" is toxic masculinity. It can be anything from not enjoying sports to showing emotion for any reason (even crying if a family member died).

Yeah, I see a ton of this under random.
Here's my front page at this very moment: https://i.imgur.com/4IsJ68f.png

I don't think I've ever made a "clean upgrade" on Linux. I've done the opposite though, that is, bring an old install over to a new computer.

Always use /dev/disk/* (I use by-id) for RAID, as those links will stay constant even if a disk is renamed (for example, from sdb to sdd).

Because the games that run on the Steam Deck are PC games, no emulation required. It's a joke.

Did you post evidence 20 years ago? Otherwise it's not worth much more than "jet fuel can't melt steel beams".

If you truly do separate the art from the artist there's no need to defend the artist.
I sometimes listen to a few black metal albums made by completely insane people, but I'd never defend their actions; quite the opposite.

ZFS has triple parity support for RAID-Z (basically RAID-5/RAID-6/RAID-7 with better data safety guarantees), so there's that.

The X370 Taichi was considered one of the best boards of the generation, so I'm pretty sure they improved.
Mine's still going strong in a friend's computer 7 years later, with a Ryzen 5600.

I literally haven't had ANY of those problems running Windows 10 or 11 FWIW, not have any of my friends or relatives.

I'm not anti-Linux or anything though, have used it for 26 years now, but only briefly on the desktop.

Is the difference between them and Steam really that great in practice though? This link has 30583 games that seem to only exist on Steam. But yeah, there's probably no paid deals involved. Still not a huge difference in practice IMO.

Ubuntu is just getting worse and worse. I was pretty happy running Ubuntu server for years after moving from Gentoo; I jag lost interest in spending time taking care for that server and wanted something easy.

I went to Debian half a year ago and it's been great. Should've done it earlier.
