I see your point, but context matters. The title is saying: “PCs are a superior kind to consoles (and macs)”. Saying that a certain type of technology is superior to another is absolutely okay, even though the same can’t be said for people. Banning certain phrases in spite of the way they’re used will do more harm than good to us in the long run. Additionally, people who constantly get so worked up about the usage of these phrases and words are the same ones who grant them the enormous power they hold over us.

Please don’t start with that again. PC master race is a perfectly fine name and I’m glad they didn’t change it. I’ll just have to make another account.

Absolutely sexist. I’m honestly kind of dumbfounded by the number of people opposing this. France has done some stupid shit recently, but they are absolutely in the right here.

It’s as if it was only yesterday that I watched him flip nvidia off.

How effective are VPNs at preventing this? I’ve heard it recommended the most as a counter measure.

It’s still relatively new so it’s gonna take time for it to reach mainstream meme status like Arch or Gentoo.

I mean proton is available in the AUR last I checked. Also, couldn’t you just use the “add non-steam game” option in steam? I’ve heard it does sometimes block pirated games, but it wouldn’t hurt to try

So true! Here, have some internet points and validation!

Shoutout to dbzer0 for keeping the piracy megathread alive!

That truly sucks. Yeah, some professors can be like that. I had a math professor offer bonus points to the first 3 students completed the assignment, only for the majority to cheat and just look up the answer and turn that in. It became a contest of who could copy the fastest and one student even admitted to doing it, but she just didn’t care and gave points to the cheaters anyway.

Kinda. I may have set up a Mac OS VM on my computer and downloaded Final Cut and Logic Pro just to say “Ha! Fuck you Apple!”. I have no GPU passed through. I don’t know why I did this.

The lack of Holy C in this meme makes me incredibly disappointed.

Similarly to you, I’m on Artix. Quite similar to arch, customizable, lightweight all that stuff, just without systemd. Don’t really have this deep philosophical resentment for sysd l see a lot of others have, I just had issues with it on older systems and got used to runit. Also, the logo is really slick.

Void on my laptop, very minimal, customizable and extremely stable for a rolling distro. Wanted to mention NixOS as well because although I don’t use the distro itself, the nix pm is amazing and I use it on Void for packages that aren’t in the repos.
