Yeah, that’s the point. Their fart is about to be so powerful that the laws of aerodynamics take a backseat.

I suppose weakening Klan membership at the time of release would be more accurate, I’ll add it to the post

What’s really great about that comic is it’s a loose adaptation of a 1946 episode of the Adventures of Superman radio show called “Clan of the Fiery Cross,” wherein Superman also takes on the Klan.

Klan membership went down after the broadcast aired, partially because fathers couldn’t really explain to their kids why Superman wanted to fight the Klan.

It’s credited pretty heavily with weakening Klan membership at the time of release, and it’s on YouTube.

This is kinda unrelated, but you were mentioning some of the identity moments in the comic. I really appreciated how they did some similar commentary in the new movie as well and, since I had never seen those themes focused on in Superman, I did some research into the history of immigration commentary in Superman.

Anyway, that’s how I found out there’s an adaptation from the 1980s where the life pod carrying Superman actually just contains DNA which it then assembles into Superman, all so Superman can be an American-born citizen. The 80s were one of the decades of all time.

You don’t understand, I’m scouring the internet for obscure archives of videos on how to manually uninstall Windows 11 components with the command line because Linux is just too hard to learn!

Glad I could be part of it ;)

I’m sorry, did I come across as though I was poking fun? I am genuinely asking.

Now, that’s a watermark I haven’t seen in a long time.

It’s just a lack of teaching these younguns how to act right. Common sense is out the window.

I replayed BO2 earlier this year because it takes place in 2025. I was shocked at how close its world is to ours.

If you had told me in like 2013 that, between the Black Ops series and the Modern Warfare series, Black Ops would have the more realistic plot points, I would have called you crazy.

Flash, and by extension Newgrounds, let young people create their own art and publish it en masse.

I don’t know about you, but from my experience a lot of young adults find a lot of humor/intrigue in adding adult themes to media primarily for children. You see this in all the “cursed video game” creepypastas, too. Similarly, I know we all know the song about fucking shooting that bastard Barney dead where he stands.

Children’s media is intentionally sanitized, and teenagers are intentionally rebellious. They’re going to think it’s hilarious if Dora the Explorer says, “Fuck.”

My main problem I have is with the people who never let that trend die. I saw people making edgy content like that well into the 2010s. The only one I really cared for from that era was Sonic for Hire.

Maybe in German. It comes across as so odd in English.

If we are what we eat, then I am vegetables.
If we eat what we are, then I am a cannibal.

This may not be a cure-all, but it’s pretty comprehensive.

Pop!_OS, PikaOS, CachyOS, and Bazzite are the top gaming distros right now.

I recommend Pop! if you have Nvidia cards. If you have AMD, any of them will work.

PikaOS or Bazzite with the KDE Plasma desktop are going to be closest to Windows 10 in terms of how you use them.

Pop! has a super different UI, almost Mac-like. But it’s based on Ubuntu, the most-used distro. Which means that if anything goes wrong you can search “[problem] Ubuntu” and get hundreds of solution pages.

CachyOS is based on Arch, which is the big, scawy Linux that all the nerds say they use. It’s easier to break than the other ones, and won’t officially offer some of the apps that something Debian/Ubuntu based might have. I would recommend it when you’re looking to get a bit more technical.

That said, I haven’t broken my install yet and CachyOS is like the fastest OS available right now. Serious FPS gains for a LOT of games compared to Windows, and even other Linux distros. I also have not had to sit and troubleshoot it over anything. I was shocked at how smooth it was for an Arch system.

So, there’s not really a bad choice in those 4. I’d recommend Pop! if you never want to have to tinker, Pika or Bazzite if you want to feel like you’re still using Windows, and Cachy when you feel comfortable taking some training wheels off (and that could be right now!).

For browsers, try LibreWolf. It’s a locked-down version of Firefox. Or just use Firefox. It ain’t perfect, but then again it ain’t Chrome.

If you can emulate PSP games with ease, check out GTA Chinatown Wars. I just wanted to see how the game played one evening, and I ended up beating it in a couple days.

It has a drug dealing mechanic, and you have to crash cop cars to lose stars. Extremely unique and fun GTA.

I haven’t read into RetroDECK, is it an emulator frontend?

You already have an insanely good library. You could probably play for the rest of the year on those games alone. In addition to what you have here, I’d recommend:

Alien Hominid
Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance
Burnout series
Def Jam: Fight for NY
Destroy All Humans 1 & 2
Devil May Cry
Godfather, The
GTA Vice City Stories & Liberty City Stories (NOT ON PC)
GUN
Hitman: Blood Money
Jak & Daxter series
Lord of the Rings: Aragorn’s Quest
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
Marvel vs Capcom 2
Need For Speed Underground & Hot Pursuit series
Onimusha: Warlords
Psychonauts
Ratchet & Clank Series
Rayman 2
Resident Evil 4
Red Dead Revolver
Sly Cooper 1 & 3 (1 & 3 are probably my favs)
Shadow of the Colossus
Silent Hill 2 & 3
Simpsons Hit & Run
SoulCalibur II
Spider-Man 2 (phenomenal free roam)
Star Wars Battlefront I & II
Super Monkey Ball Deluxe
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3
Twisted Metal: Black

FWIW, the original PS2 versions of the GTA games that are also on PC are actually better because they removed content as licenses expired. Unless you have the downgraded PC versions - in which case, godspeed.

Even then, I usually stick with PS2 as PC doesn’t have support for the analog face buttons that the PS2 had. I don’t know if you can emulate that on Steam Deck, but if you play PS2 GTA San Andreas with an OEM controller, pressing the button harder actually does make you go faster. It’s magic, and I find it hard to play without now. 😅

I look forward to seeing how the Deck holds up with some of these titles! I’ll admit, I’ve been thinking about getting it to use as a portable PS2 myself.
