Which if she really cared about anything. She should actually know for decades that compromising to the right only helps the right (and plays well for the hard-line centrists that love speeches and photo ops but don't want to do real work). She hasn't realized anything, and is just prepping for pretending to have "always fought for (insert major cause)."

They are beginning the "face turn" for Gaza just like they did for Iraq. They fully support and do everything to paint the protesters and anyone against the wars/invasions as "extremists" or doing the bidding of another nation. But the moment that they take a large enough L, they start loudly acting like it is they who have been on the "front lines" fighting against the shit they helped spread. They will go for the cheap "pops" and use the language of leftists and the people that have been actually in the shit. Just like they did with civil rights and women's rights by painting those brave souls as libs/centrists and remove all leftist bits out.

I am almost convinced that the Dems actually wanted to lose badly. As they tend to get more blind voter support while playing the "underdog" role. But the moment they get control again, we only hear about how they "can't do x because bipartisanship (or whatever fake reasons)."

It might not be the answer, but I have had some games do very weird shit in the past (AMD GPU as well but on Windows). I found out that some games really don't like if you have applied AMD settings that override the game's graphical settings. Do you just have the AMD kernel driver, or have you installed the one with the Adrenalin from the AMD site? If you installed the Adrenalin software, you might want to try setting all the options for the game to only use game settings and not allow the AMD software to take over. If it is the one that ships with the kernel, then I am not sure how to change stuff that might be trying to override the game. Maybe see if there is a Proton version that might be better?

Literacy has played a large factor in advancements in societies and more important liberation of oppressed peoples. The fascists and greedy rich people have been doing everything to fuck with education for decades. And US citizens have been more or less taking pride in being stupid. The working and poor need to be doing everything possible to take pride in learning to combat this degeneration for our survival.

Not the person you were replying to, but you can use Obtainium to check for and install updates from the github releases in a similar way to F-droid.

That sounds awesome! I might have to try that out for my archived podcast eps or audiobooks that aren't in an audiobook with chapters format already. Shit is annoying to lose my place just because I had friends in the car and needed to put on music.

I think that your example of the App Store and the Microsoft Store is helpful! I work on both systems at my job fixing computers for consumers. The only thing I dislike about the App Store is that it doesn't let you install things without first signing in with an Apple ID (the spam levels of pop-up messages trying so freaking hard to make you sign in is infuriating). But the MS Store feels like all the worst parts of the Play Store and really fucks things up if it breaks. I will likely remember your reply the next time I think about Flatpaks and Snaps though. lol

I wasn't aware of Snaps being used in-place of regular installs with apt. Are they shown to be Snaps in the name of the program when using apt search? And if there is a Snap and a regular deb, do they both show up (again if using apt search)?

I am currently only on Linux on my Steam Deck and I do have two RPi's (though I don't actively use them) so I don't have personal current knowledge of differences between Snap, Flatpak, and App Image beyond that A: Snap always brings up lots and lots of hate in comments and B: is from Canonical.

But is it possible that they might choose to use Snap for having more program options due to Ubuntu being such a "mainstream" distro? I know lots and lots of programs do release Flatpaks, but are there more of them or does Snap have more? Real question since I am aware of how heated some threads get with folks being really "fuck Snap" or "it is fine." Mostly just curious since I am more and more likely to move my main PC to Linux as my main OS after Windows 10 is dead.

Anyone know if they plan to add other parts of the desktop version to the Android version? Would be nice to see at least the calendar. The RSS stuff would be cool too.

I'm over here doing both AND while medicated. Though most of the rage comes from bumping heads with people that don't have ADHD and keep pulling my attention away from shit. Sometimes the normal "hey check this out real quick shit is funny" or to dump a different problem/task on me. Because I am unfortunately the person that has fixed enough weird shit and they seem to refuse to remember stuff I have shown them (time after time after time). Which means I get stuck having to rush all the shit I was doing before the interruptions and end up staying later than everyone else to not forget what I need to do the next day.

I have begun giving a "me warning" to new folks to let them know that I might come across as an absolute asshole and very short with them at times. But that they should just be aware that I am not actually mad at them personally, and to be direct with me right back if I go too far and say something (like "too far man" or similar) as I will actually try to correct myself.
