Draconic NEO

For Twitter it really doesn’t make sense because it has become undebatably a “Nazi bar”, metaphorically since they aren’t an actual bar, but they still support and tolerate Nazis (and other manners of horrible people). Some people insist that it isn’t and there are “normal level headed people there” but that doesn’t matter, it’s still a Nazi bar, because it accepts and tolerates Nazis. How can someone expect to not be judged for going to and hanging out in a place like that?

The one on the left is a MAGA, they’re unable to listen to logic even if the answer is right in front of them.

Well right wingers want to ban books and services like IA make that harder since they provide easy access to download or digitally borrow those books. It makes it harder for them to deny people access to those books since they can find them online. Of course, there are other ways people can still obtain those books, IA isn’t the only one, but it’s the easiest and the most convent.

He likes his giant Blåhaj (probaby not an actual Blåhaj)

I had a similar scary situation like that before where the phone number linked to the account wasn’t mine anymore. Luckily I was able to get back because I was still logged in on another computer and it hadn’t kicked me out yet, I was able to go to account settings and remove the phone number, then google let me log into the account again. Had I been kicked out of the account, I would’ve lost it for sure.

No he needs a good run through the sandblaster.

OP is a huge troll, they created their own community to hate on linux and ban anyone who doesn’t agree with them even slightly. They’re also deliberately using the auto remove on ban function to obscure the content of the removed comments from appearing in the modlog.

Yeah and since Online bank accounts can also almost always be reset if you lose the 2FA/MFA key by calling customer support, or going to your bank and speaking with themt in person, there’s almost no risk of losing access completely. It’s a service you have access to because you’re you. Something that isn’t the case with Reddit, Github, Lemmy accounts, or Masotodon. I’m not able to regain access after losing those 2FA solutions by virtue of being myself, they treat you just like the attacker in those cases. Really not worth it there, both since what is being protected isn’t worth it, and the risk far outweighs it.

That’s a great way to lose access if your device gets lost, stolen, or destroyed. Which is why I’m against and will continue to be against forcing 2FA and MFA solutions onto people. I don’t want this, services don’t care if we’re locked out which is why they’re happy to force this shit onto people.

Unsurprising since Proton is optimized by Valve specifically for playing games. Crossover, Wine, and Whiskey are more general purpose. They will work fine and can be optimized and tweaked, but Proton will work better out of the box.

I think now it’ll just run it through proton if a native linux release isn’t found. At some point they seem to just have enabled Proton support by default for games that support it. It’s only for games that have a non-functional linux Release that you have to mess with them.

I think this user has an irrational disdain or hatred of linux that causes them to believe things that aren’t true, or haven’t ever been true. I mean he literally created [email protected] just to post memes complaining.

Are you sure? I know it was like that when it first came out but I think now they have it enabled by default, just install and run the games under it automatically.

It comes with Steam by default and is automatically used out of the box when a native linux version of the game isn’t found.

It also does have an API which can be used by apps, including alternate frontends which don’t use JS.

Many of their games do have native linux versions, and a lot do work under wine or proton, which can be used as a Non-steam game in Steam or even without Steam.

Their launcher doesn’t yet have a native linux version but it’s completely optional, and does still run under wine if you really want it.

Let’s pretend that the US created the internet as a whole and that it wasn’t created by a joint effort from different actors around the world. That still doesn’t mean they own the internet today like you continue to imply. And consequently means that any group, organization, or country which chooses to deploy alternate DNS Root servers (forked or fully custom) on their own DNS providers is well within the right to do that without needing to build their own internet, and simply use all the non air-gapped infrastructure they have already.

I don’t really think ICANN should be based anywhere or really have any say, or I guess even exist at all. I’m a strong believer in a decentralized DNS system not controlled or designated by a single, all powerful entity. With how important it is and how much breaks if it gets compromised either by outside forces, or by internal corruption, it makes sense that something like this shouldn’t be so centralized and vulnerable.

If the .us TLD vanished, as in, if America ceased to be. I imagine com, net, org, and domains of the like would also be seriously affected since their maintainers as well as the organization with all control over all domains and the root servers would also be affected by such change. The internet could adapt for sure even in the worst case scenario, but with how centralized DNS is it would cause more than a few shakeups. Probably would make this incident look like a drop in the bucket.

I disagree, you speak like the united states owns the internet. No one owns the internet. That also means no one actually has to follow IANA’s rules, why should they wall themselves off and build out their own air-gapped infrastructure just to circumvent problems imposed by IANA if IANA and the USA don’t actually “own” the internet. You can’t take the internet because no one owns the internet, get this shitty idea out of your head, internet doesn’t belong to anyone, it’s all of ours. That also means people, organizations, and countries (especially countries) are free to use alternate DNS systems with either partially or fully forked DNS Root servers.

If you want to control it you should build your own

Besides the self-hosted DNS servers for Pretendo, AltWFC, and a few GameSpy games (which I also host the servers for) I have no intention of actually doing this, but I am pointing out that no one has to, nor should they, go all out like you suggest if they wanted to do this. They do not need to build out separate internet like you suggest to control their own Domain name system.
