Missed the lore.
Why boycott .ml ?
Couple things
Start applying for things you’re not sure and you know you aren’t qualified for. Often recruiters or HR people don’t actually know what the fuck the job needs and just sorta copies similar job titles recs. Once you’re able to talk to the actual hiring manager, then you can see if you’re a good culture fit and if they can give you some on the job training.
Get a job at something not really what you wanna do but feels related enough. For me, my big break into my career was working at a call center for a hospital. It was not IT related, but it got me office experience that I spun into IT experience.
Its how you can tell PDP fans weren’t paying attention. He promoted it a few times but it didn’t gain any traction and he abandoned it.
Or maybe it just didn’t help with the fascism allegations from the bridge moment and the Fiverr incidents since those all happened about the same time.
Hell, he had Ben Shapiro host an episode of LWIAY. Sure it wasn’t peak genocide apologizer we have now Benny Boy, but he was still a verifiable dick head grifter.
Bethesda game runs like ass
That’s not news
He’s also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.
There’s a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled “Subscribe to PewDiePie” besides being a topical meme.
Sick! I’ve added both to my list.
I’m almost done with “Tracers in the Dark”
Seems interesting. What did you think about it?
This is something I tell people all the time. It’s just as easy to troubleshoot on Linux as it is on Windows the biggest issue is that most people are just kinda innately aware of Windows troubleshooting by virtue of the fact that they’ve been doing it for so long. Linux is probably just as complicated skill wise, but most people just aren’t used to it yet.
And that’s especially true for gamers. If you’ve gone through the dance of tweaking BIOS settings or DDU removing drivers and reinstalling them, then you’re probably gonna do fine on Linux. The only difference is sometimes there won’t be a GUI you have to go hunt down. It will be like 3 commands someone has already written out for you that you copy/paste into the CLI. Which is WAY better in my opinion.
Pop OS
Lots of people were hyping it in 2019/2020 so I thought I’d give it a try as my first real Linux experience. It works great and has a Nvidia driver option when I need that. So I never really tried to switch.
Distro hoping never appealed to me, but I did try Fedora, Manjaro, Mint, Ubuntu, and Debian 12.
I use Kali for work and considered swapping to XFCE DE but pop is fine.
I ultimately agree with a lot of communism and as such I’m probably more likely to agree with the average Tankie than most people.
And with that disclaimer, yeah kinda it has aided them in doing that.
They created a reddit alternative that has a “default server” as it were. And they have the ability to admin that source of information to tailor to their specific ideological needs.
But is it effective in a grander scheme? That’s pretty debatable.
