Currently we are witnessing a capitalist genocide in Gaza were children are starving to death and the working class are powerless to stop this. But yea denial on both sides certainty is problematic, the issue is though “tankie” communists will argue propaganda as well as the libs and conservatives. We have been bombarded with fictitious narrative that its a real struggle to find comprehensive and honest reporting of previous events.

Last month I read a “tankies” recap on Tiannamen Square protests, it went as far as to say there was no massacre and quoted creditable journalist that had reported a peaceful evening on the night of the massacre, but I equally saw photos of piled up buddies, bloodied police officers and alike. There’s also a conspiracy that the CIA staged the massacre or played some rule within it.

Ive also dealt with american denying the genocide in Vietnam, or Americas rule in creating North Korean.

Solidarity comrade

Apparently its to do with a sport car scene where the Chinese couldn’t afford such luxuries but still want to participate and westerners or Americans would call these vehicle mods ricing

Now with linux theming we call ricing and that carries a racist connotation. How racist it actually is I am unsure but either way thats the reason people get upset.

I like the dichotomy. Fuck power structure and you may be misremembering the dialogue prier, definitely inflating it though

You delete these comments :/ but this is what I said.

Someone had said how communism has caused much suffering, I wanted to add context to the history of communist revolutions.

the exorcist. At age 8

My Catholic church going up bringing has made possession into a genuine fair even though I’m atheist now.

that does seem quit unfair to delete a fairly innocuous post, have you reach-out to moderators of that group

Ah yes the self deprecating model

Capitalism!

He’s should be free not locked in a cage

arch user are hot :,)

True that. I will make a spam not that shall post meta decent

Value is personal, I for one want a game, I dont want a bloated web browser that only connects through steam, which is what the steam client is. All the thing I need steam to do I can do and I can do it in a more agnostic way and less bloated. I use wayland therefore steam does not run without xwayland support enabled and even when enabled I can’t stream my desktop over steam remote.

• Can’t use remote play and have an open source implementation that has fine tuning controls.
• Installing mods through third party tools or manually is easy enough and allows for multiple distributors.
• Dont use vr and even so its a closed ecosystem.
• More than happy to visit steam in my own browser to buy and download games if that was possible.
• Dont care for skins, cards, or any of the inventory system.
• I talk to friends through open source solutions.

If you do however want a streaming, mod manager, vr, forum, store front, download manager, DRM and much more in one bloated application then yes the value proposition is there.

I highly value diy solutions in software, you on the other hand may not. And this is fine. GOG offers more to me than to you as steam offers less for me than for you.

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/2720-4EC7-B95A-1D2A steams regional pricing is basically gone…

all of the things you have listed are things we as individuals can and have implemented without steam, theyre pretty good like adding code to wine and pushing linux to the larger audience and i myself have been on steam for 11 years with 320 games, but integrated modding? i mean we had mod managers before steams implementation.

game streaming we have moonlite and shunshine > for amd hosts, and theres more.

input remapping can be done through standalone applications i use sc-controller for remapping my steam controller.

id say steams vr client is more of a negative than a positive, leads to segmentation and issues with device support when we should of focused on a wide approach to vr. like what google did with android, funded a free and open eco-system>(less so now)

steam sells accessibility and DRM, personally i see this as a bad thing. force people to become dependent. and while gog isnt natively on linux there are work around like downloading from gog.com or installing heroic games launcher.

To all companies

just stop using plastic

I’d of thought steam and proton would of been a large contributing factor

amd rx 6900 xt, its been like this since last week, been using the card for 3 years, but hopefully your right

Fair I will have to check em out

Its getting ridiculous! What are these? Water bottles for ants?

/s

I don’t know but anything that makes my pee dark red I’d avoid

Wishful thinking on my part tbh, I forget that there is an ecosystem with gmail :/
