The destruction of queer rights in the US will harm me regardless of me ever setting foot in the country.

This is the way the Reddit ends. Not with a bang but a John Oliver.

Twitter hired a well liked (in that industry) ad exec. I think she started in early June. I'm guessing her credibility and connections are at least partially responsible for the increase.

I would argue that the problem with gaming on android isn't as much the quality of the games as it is the quality of google play.

Most games on the platform are not something I'm interested in, and while that goes for any platform google aggressively don't care about my preferences and would rather use most of the available space for ads instead. Sure, it has an algorithm suggesting stuff to you, but when "no" isn't an answer the algorithm isn't really useful to me (which is by design). There's no search for tags, no way to filter and even searching for the exact title of a game will present you with several other games before the real result shows up.

It also doesn't help that the ratings system is terrible. When (almost) every game has a 4.1 rating it isn't really of much use.

I switched from win11 to pop_os this week. I've had a good deal of linux exposure but most of that was in the '00s. As such I don't have familiarity with any other distro in recent times, but I would not recommend people start out with pop. It feels not quite ready for prime-time yet. It would probably be perfect to try after you've had a bit of experience.

I will happily take a very buggy launch over half-baked design - especially in an open world Bethesda game.
If a launch similar to Fo4 or Fo76 means we don't get a progression system like constellations from Skyrim (inconsistently balanced and with many missing the point of the tree entirely) I will be glad

A crypto coin is only worth as much as the hype surrounding it, so the people holding a lot of crypto needed something beyond "you can use this to buy drugs on the internet" to generate hype.
It turns out that more than a few people investing in tech don't really understand what they invest in, but are highly susceptible to FOMO so any tech company wanting a quick cash injection put together a blockchain/nft/play-to-earn/web3 pitch.

It's a pretty young distro so there's some stuff missing or not working. My main issue (beyond struggling to install it due to a wrongly setup usb that would fail at the end of the install for no discernable reason) is window snapping not working properly on monitors in portrait orientation.
But I've had a few times where stuff should work but didn't with no feedback from the OS. It feels like a beta version that's almost ready for release.

Scrolling to the bottom of nft dot reddit dot com reveals a 2021 copyright, but I'm sure they have all their best people working on a new version of it that's much better! /s
