Nice, thanks for that.

It's amazing how this is demonized in American culture. Really makes one think.

Now, to get rid of the 2 party system...

I agree. I still think regular peiple would view that as "the government stealing their property" though. For example i know a few people who buy places and fix them up to rent out. Are you saying they should get their properties taken away?

If you're only referring to billionaires and corporations buying housing, i agree. But if any laws were put into place, we know how it always goes, it would only affect those regular Joe's renting properties, and theyd further hate the government for too much regulation. I see no way to possibly stop the rich from buying all housing.

Maybe this is a good place to ask this, as I always think about it. I am all in favor of abolishing this nightmare of late stage capitalism and coporate ownership of government. However, how do you explain that any other form wont take away from those of us who are (admittedly lucky) home/land owners, that actually are sitting fine ? Those people don't want to give up what they have so someone in an apartment can have more. Think of it this way: you have an acre of land you worked for, it wasn't given. Someone else has a 2 bedroom apartment they also worked for. For reason (either laziness, or unfortunately events) the apartment owner can't save enough for a house/land. Maybe their mental capability is maxed out (be honest, we know people like this) and they can't get more schooling etc. Under a socialist system, it seems like anyone with their house/land would be forced to give it up and live in blocs of apartments, which no one I know actually wants. This is just one example. But it's something that I feel like will always hold the US back from socialism, because those that currently have "the dream" don't want it to be taken. Now, people living in shacks that vote for Musk because the immigrants will take their jerbs, those people are idiots. But I'm talking about people who work full time and are decently well off, probably have a decent amount in stocks etc. Those people don't want corporations destroying us, but they also don't want full socialism.

Totally would have!

Everyone has opinions but mint has been the most stable for me. Plus large user base. It doesn't come with everything built in like bazzite, but it's so easy to install wine, steam, proton, etc anyway.

Actual Hank Hill moment.

How did you get AC to run?? I've tried every proton instance and proton ge, it will not launch at all. And I haven't even started trying to get content manager working which seems pretty hard.

Thank you! Maybe I need bottles. I have wine, and proton.

Agree, no one should be we are addicted to cheap goods and throwaway. We need to teach people to repair and learn and stop buying shit they don't need on Amazon. But humans are total idiots. I'm lucky I won't be around for the collapse

If you're a gamer like me and you play a wide range of games and vr, dual boot mint on another drive to test it. If you enjoy tinkering and learning, it's awesome. If you want to jump in and instantly game, you won't have a good time. I treat it like a classic car. Sometimes you want to tinker and get things running good, but you don't want to daily drive a 69 Chevelle, unless it's restomodded. Move slowly away from windows and bolster the linux community !

Ill have to try again! I thought anti cheat borked it

Right, magas have 0 empathy so that's most of it. They don't think their children would be the ones making shoes in a sweatshop. Not saying it's right for it to happen in other countries either (i don't buy nike, but yes I have tech that was probbaly made by foxconn and we know how nice they are to employees). If nike moved to the US their shoes would be $300 , and the workers would make at most $13, which is not even close to enough to live on now.
