Wow, what a horrible idea. But assuming you have a compatible device and didn’t disable this feature, blacklisting it in your router wouldn’t help much.

Or you would just not connect it to the wifi. It’s not like it’s going to guess your WPA key.

Yeah I’d actually prefer a breathalyzer if they feel they need to do something

Per bidens Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, that’s going to be every new car starting this year

Why would you use zfs over fat12?

This is the way. Name and shame, leave a record for future potential employers. If we give the government an inch on first amendment rights they’ll take a mile, especially in Florida.

They proved who they are.

So did the Democrats. Over and over again. You’re not going to get anything you’re asking for and you’re delusional if you expect otherwise. Their job is to calm people down so we can ratchet towards fascism again in a few years.

Yeah, you know they’re shit and keep electing them anyway. Like Nancy Pelosi.

I might be more willing to listen if it isn’t the same doofus who lied to me in the last election

And how does one typically get good enough at a job to “make good decisions”?

Not being so power hungry as to choose politics as a career thereby losing touch with the rest of society is a damn good start

And how would you know if they would “make good decisions” in that job?

Idk maybe they could spend a few months telling us their ideas, and then the people could go and pick the candidate they like the most, like some sort of election

As far as I’m concerned “makes good decisions” is a better qualification than “made a career out of running for office”

Electing a legislator is not electing a dictator. The system was designed to give people with good ideas a chance to lead, not just professional politicians. Your attitude is borderline elitist and leads to the “ok it’s my turn now” phenominon that’s made the Democrats so ineffective in the last couple of decades. The only time anyone’s gotten excited for them in recent memory was Obama, who had been a politician for a whole 4 years before becoming president.

There’s not necessarily anything wrong with electing people without political experience. If everyone didn’t have an equal shot we might as well be a monarchy. The problem is we never elect anyone good.

We had a project that, by law, could only be touched by people within the US. We constantly caught Deloitte trying to sneak their (undoubtedly cheaper) off shore staff in there.

Thanks for the tips but I’m a very experienced windows user, I did all of that immediately after install lol. To put it in perspective, my first step after installing bazzite was to join it to my personal AD domain that lives on my hyper-v cluster. If there’s something I could have done to get this performance on win 11 it would have probably been significantly more complicated and time consuming than any of the basics.

Yeah I ran my steam library past protondb before I started and a surprising number of games had Linux native versions. Of the rest, everything I actually want to play was rated either gold or platinum.

I get all that, they’re all very good points. I had windows tuned to the best of my abilities, I try to use windows whenever possible at home because I manage windows servers professionally and it’s helpful to get as much hands on time with the platform as I can. But this was such a dramatic difference out of the box that I’m going to stick with it for now at least. I’m not willing to invest the time into tweaking windows to run this well (if I even can) and it’s a dedicated gaming rig so many of the “Linux on the desktop” complaints won’t apply to my use case.

Mostly I’m shocked that getting significantly improved performance when running through a compatibility layer was even possible. I expected proton to be almost as good as native. In this instance it ended up being a huge improvement.

I wasn’t sure about that article at the time, but it did inspire me to finally try out bazzite on a spare nvme and I found that a lot of my issues in games went away. Particularly fallout 4, the painfully slow loading screens between map changes are like 70% faster now. So I’m sticking with it for my gaming rig.

I never would have though running games through a translation layer could actually improve performance. Id heard a lot of people say so but I assumed it was just Linux devotees being fanboys. They were absolutely right.

You were very clear that you believe everyone is stupid except for you, yes.

No we’re not. I’ve already addressed this, please scroll up.

Yes, we are. If you believe people have to be tricked or manipulated into valuing different features than you do, you’re just using a lot of extra words to say “everyone is stupid except for me”.
