I’m back to Windows unfortunately.

I miss gnome with a passion. I loved the win key overview, it was great for dragging windows across monitors.

I’ve been using Google’s keyboard for like…10 years now. When has it ever not been the best? I’d tried so many alternatives.

Idk dude I just don’t care. I’m not fort fucking Knox I’m just trying to play some fucking video games. My computer doesn’t need to be the most secure thing on the planet.

Even though all that’s true I’d rather roll the dice than play another tarkov wipe with rampant cheaters.

No matter how invasive the anti cheat is, if you could guarantee no cheaters I’m in

I love my privacy and all, but I’d give it away to game with real players lol.

Unfortunately there’s a cheating plague right now. It’s never been easier to cheat. It’s a huge problem in any competitive shooter. If you want your game to be successful, you need decent anti cheat.

I can’t blame the devs for using a plug and play solution.

Black Mesa was also limited by valve in some minor ways

I remember being at PAX East in 2019 before COVID, and they had a booth there. They had big box copies of Black Mesa which I thought was really cool, I wanted to buy one just to have on display. But they said valve actually said they weren’t allowed to sell them. It was only for a promotional purposes at the booth.

Because large swaths of shit refuse to run on Linux

EV’s have been around since the dawn of ICE cars pretty much I wouldn’t say it’s recent tech.

Never say never. Lol

If there’s one thing I’ve learned, innovation can wildly subvert expectations.

I loved my z fold 3. Took too many falls and the inside screen had it. Would happily get another if they weren’t so expensive.

BMW’s are all over, at least where I live.

Can’t forget the charger.

Watching foreign children cartoons is a pretty big red flag, yeah…

Do you always assume other people’s opinions are completely invalid after you’ve dug your feet in?

What cope. I still run into countless compatibility issues which bars Linux from daily use for me. Stop trying to downplay proton compatibility, it just makes your arguments appear disingenuous.

I would fully switch over to Linux in a heartbeat if there was no compatibility problems.

My last experience with Linux was positive, but I eventually went back into Windows.

So many games are left unsupported by proton that is not a non-issue like some people like to claim. I tried for a year to stay on Linux, but all my friends would be playing games I couldn’t even lauunch.

I tried just passing on the games I couldn’t play at first, to avoid booting into Windows. But that didn’t last long and soon I found myself being in Windows 90% of the time.

I wish it wasn’t the case because I had an install of endeavor os with gnome and I loved the DE so much it was hard to stay on windows.

But eventually I just stopped booting into Linux and haven’t come back.

Maybe in a couple more years when missing out on steam deck revenue is a big deal, I’ll be back.

CliniMACS plus/prodigy, LOVO, G-Rrex and other expensive instruments.

Grade B suites with grade A BSC’s and all the trained personnel to work on it.

Shit costs a lot of money.

Manufacturing costs alone are insane. I work in biopharma, specifically manufacturing.

Most of these drugs you see on headlines are made from the blood of the patient. You can’t mass produce that.

It’s actually not expensive just because. They don’t manufacture this stuff in a pill packing plant with an automated machine that just churns this out.

Cell therapy takes blood from a patient and manufacturers with it to make the drug. It’s made manually by a team of people for a specific patient. The material costs alone are a quarter of the price in most cases.

Cell therapy ain’t cheap.

A lot of people. Bunch of my coworkers were hyped about the release.
