Where do you get that I’m “idolizing them” from my post? Whatever Valve pays to get this development done, it’s not pushing up the price of a device that runs Linux/Proton vs one that runs Windows, because Linux/Proton/etc don’t attract a licensing fee, while Windows does. That’s just objective fact. Meanwhile you’re over here speculating your tits off about stuff that might happen, so you can yell at me. The fuck did I say to warrant this aggressive bullshit from you?
Technically the OS isn’t free
And practically, that doesn’t matter. Valve isn’t charging anyone a licensing fee for the software they’ve developed, so as far as the cost of the device goes SteamOS is free. Just because they could charge for it doesn’t change that.
I do understand those things, and Maher clearly doesn’t.
You said:
I think he only aligns with Trump on a single thing you listed, and even that’s is for different reasons than Trump’s.
But Maher said:
I told him I thought parts of his plan for Gaza were wacky but that I had supported him in the idea that Gaza could be Dubai instead of hell. I told him he was wrong when he tweeted the night before that I was critical of all things Trump. Not true — check the tapes.
Moving Israel’s embassy to Jerusalem? Loved it. The border did need to be controlled. I’m glad the cops are getting their morale back. DEI had gone too far. Biological men shouldn’t be playing women’s sports. Europe should pay for their defense. And of course, it makes sense that Arab countries should take in Arab refugees, like the million Syrians who wound up in Germany when Saudi Arabia took none. He said to me, ‘You’re right, they took none.’
It’s fine that you want to continue to enjoy his comedy, by all means go ahead. I just gave the reasons I don’t like it, and him; I’m not trying to attack you.
Ha! I don’t get how I’m being condescending though; those are the issues I have with him, and it makes it really hard for me to enjoy anything else he says. I also think he aligns with Trump on those things. Where am I wrong?
But also, it’s just his style of comedy; I’ve never been a fan. I don’t like Ricky Gervais’ comedy either, and I think it’s for a lot of the same reasons.
I’m glad he makes you laugh! I won’t begrudge you that. Though, it’s not that I forget he’s a comedian; his humour really doesn’t hit home for me. He’s had some takes that aged like hot milk, even recently, and the positivity after hanging out with Trump was and is weird.
Weird to me, anyway. But then, I understand the need for inclusive policies that serve a diverse population equitably, I understand how trans rights are human rights, and I understand that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, which puts me further from Trump than Maher is. Quite a bit further, possibly.
If you could get through the light without him condescending to you about your lighting technique, your rolling technique, the lighter, and the weed… yeah, he might get stoned enough to shut the fuck up for a few minutes. That would be alright.
Then again, he got along okay with Trump instead of telling him to eat a bag of fascist dicks, so maybe not.
Wowee, nope, a person trafficking children to be raped means they’re “not rad” you paedophile-apologist sicko.
Edit: Oh yeah, and fuck you for trying to paint it like she was in danger, and had no choice, and wasn’t living the high life and profiting off the misery of children. Don’t try to equivocate her to victims. This is a truly vile opinion you’ve got going on here bud; I hope you figure that out eventually.
And all she did was help to traffic thousands of young girls to be raped by the likes of Donald Trump. So cool, what a relatable lady. Who amongst us hasn’t enabled a little (or a lot of) child rape every now and then, right?

Seriously do you even hear yourself? What the fuck is wrong with you?
I’m really glad that he’s aware of the moral implications of what he did.
Doesn’t sound like you are though. I mean, you just admitted he committed fraud in order to appropriate money meant for people who actually needed it, and now:
You serious, dude? You’re aware that I didn’t commit fraud during the pandemic, right? And it wasn’t hard either, I just didn’t apply for relief I wasn’t eligible for. You’re aware he wasn’t scamming a bank, he was scamming people in need?
It’s okay to make mistakes, but he is lucky he’s not in prison, and if he can own what he did like an adult then so can you.
Hope you’ve got some of that broken leg serum
Also half of the loans were government Covid aid that he applied for even though he wasn’t eligible
Ahh, so he did a bunch of fraud. The reason the government was writing blank cheques was because people were dying in the millions and businesses were failing left and right. He’s lucky he’s not in prison.
I’m glad he’s doing better now, but I can’t help but think of the people who needed that money and might not have gotten it in time (or maybe at all) because of what he did. Does he ever think about that, do you know?
I’m a minute in and I’m a fan, thanks for the link!
I was skating at the local ice rink, and tripped. I think it was an Olympic-sized rink, but that might have been the pool… it was pretty big, anyway. I bounced my head off the ice so hard I saw blue and red fireworks (only time that’s ever happened to me), and slid half the length of the rink on my face wherein I crashed into the barrier. That shit hurt, I still remember it vividly 30 years later, but luckily nothing broken. My mum was simultaneously aghast, and relieved and amazed I wasn’t more injured. She was convinced I’d have fractured something in my face when she saw me fall.

Network-attached storage is pretty proscriptive for what these machines actually do nowadays. Especially the home ones like this, tend to end up pulling multiple duties like media server, homelab, etc. Heck, a dedicated resource for local AI projects is a use case I built into my custom-built NAS using an old 2080 I had laying around after an upgrade, precisely because I want to be able to use my desktop for other stuff while the model is running.
I’m not saying a parent can stop them, I’m saying giving it is a bad idea. A parent can tell their kid why they shouldn’t do it, ask them to wait until they’re older, and let the kid make the decision if they find themselves faced with the choice. Children don’t have a lot of disposable income typically though, so obtaining drugs is proportionally more difficult without help.
Stoner here, but I didn’t start taking cannabis until my 30s. I’m firmly in the camp of not giving drugs to anyone until their brain has finished developing - which includes alcohol, too. Intoxicating substances impact neuron growth and produce negative outcomes for people who haven’t finished maturing yet.
Starflight, on Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. The graphics don’t look outdated, it just feels retro.
It’s the strongest argument yet for adding Trump, anyway.
