had an impression it was extremely expensive but also very wealthy.

The trouble with these kinds of statements is that there are always going to be "bottom of the ladder" workers who are still poor in these cities, and being poor in am expensive city is a shit load worse than being poor anywhere else

Even then, salaries are high, but the CoL more or less cancels it out. Even the wealthy SWEs I know who live in SF are barely able to swing 2 bedroom apartments that they share with an SO. That's why you hear about new grads making $200k/year right out of college working for Meta or Google, it's true, but you'd be better off in a lot of ways working for a small company in Sacramento for $100k

Nah, that's all overcomplicated nonsense. Pop it in the air fryer (or convection oven if you're a traditionalist) for a few minutes and call it a day - perfect everytime 👌

Didn't valve literally just say that were at least a few years out from a refresh?

That, or crush a few innocent deck hands on his way down

I'll never understand how/why so many people seem convinced that Pokémon is a franchise targeted at adults, then get mad when the games are clearly made for kids

Well, with a disregard for law and accountability like that, I'm glad you're never going to be elected to an office lol

Definitely more work to set things up the first time, though

This is ultimately my point - looking through protondb, it looks like all the games I play today work, but a good few require some workarounds, hacks, or just have crashes reported while playing

Gaming is my escape from my day job of working on software, fiddling with configs and whatnot is really the last thing I want to do when I have free time to play.

Don't get me wrong, I'm stoked that gaming on Linux is improving so much, and I deeply look forward to the day that I can ditch Windows for good on my gaming PC, but for now its just the best tool for my requirements

We're not talking about "norms", we're talking about "law". And it's always important to remember the whatever powers you give this president, you have to give the next. What happens if Biden breaks the law for his own goals, even if those goals are noble, and then Trump is elected in?

A politician who breaks laws on their own whim is a tyrant, full stop. And even a noble tyrant doesn't help anyone in the long run.

From another article

In the Oval Office on Thursday, Biden made clear that he was moving forward with wall construction grudgingly, in order to comply with funds appropriated by Congress in 2019. He said he had tried and failed to get Congress to redirect the funding it had allocated for wall construction in south Texas. "The money was appropriated for the border wall. I tried to get them to reappropriate, to redirect that money. They didn’t. They wouldn’t. In the meantime, there’s nothing under the law other than they have to use the money for what it was appropriated for. I can’t stop that," he said.

Research the damn issues before forming opinions about them people

No defense necessary - his hands are tied and breaking the rules to achieve your own agenda is what fascists do. This is just a lingering bit of rot from the Trump admins, frankly I'm surprised that conservative media isn't framing this more as a victory for Trump

I'm not the guy you asked but I can answer for myself - it's still not nearly as effortless to use for gaming as windows. I work with computers all day, so when I sit down to game at night I absolutely refuse to debug shit. For Starfield as an example, it works via proton, but the protondb page is full of "to get around X issue use the following workaround", and I just can't be bothered.

I use Linux for work and hobby software development, but for me to switch my gaming pc over would require it to not just be "viable", but effortless

What a comprehensive rebuttal to his counterpoint lol

You guys really have no idea what to say once you run out of prescripted talking points, huh?
