I’m a tech worker and know my way around Linux but I use productivity software / VR (with NVIDIA) at home and don’t want to deal with getting all of that stuff working again.
Win10 EOL is pushing me there and all of my problems would go away if more people switched but I just want to be a simple user in my downtime.

I wish worker owned cooperatives were the norm, it’s like this but maxed out

You see, when you look past the sales figures and hype men you eventually come across dozens or hundreds of talented people who create the actual art and entertainment that we all enjoy.
A good work environment means more talented and artistic people will continue to make the things that we enjoy.
Hope this helps

ok, keep your asshole friends and be associated with them I guess? point proven?

If you’re not calling out that kind of behavior when you encounter it among your social group then you are definitely complicit. Is it a morally corrupt position? Not necessarily, but you’re complicit and you’re enabling it.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 2 weeks ago:
It’s true that men as a broad group have a duty to confront and correct that behavior within their social groups and families etc. and that might be where that sentiment is coming from, but we live in a world where people can and do live in bubbles.

100%, liberals won’t let go of the root causes of the problems and will keep patching and reforming and patching and reforming all the while every little crisis brings fascism back from the shadows
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 2 weeks ago:
I’m not the original person you were speaking to but this is a good example of systemic issues. You don’t need individuals to be racist or sexist or conspire to do bad things if there’s a systemic trend that people in powerful positions are a homogeneous class with their own relatively aligned interests and social circles.
Billionaires don’t know poor people, billionaires are usually white men, billionaires have similar self interest. Billionaires wield a huge amount of power. BOOM. systemic racism and sexism without requiring everyone to scheme and coordinate.
This is why liberals fixate on gender and race representation in higher positions, and this is why I and other leftists just want to dismantle unbalanced power structures that give billionaires everything and allow them to exist.

I’d say there’s some unavoidable bias there. If we judge the dominant masculine culture by the degree to which people emphasize masculinity then of course the loud ultra masculine people will seem like the representation.
Lots of men out there just being men

The “white people” idea has some merit when you consider that whiteness has usually been an arbitrary group of races and cultures that define the dominant group in that society. The whole “Italians and Irish weren’t once considered white” thing.
Obviously individuals can experience hardship and you might even argue that preferring non-white candidates or affirmative action is harmful (I’m not going to, but you can).
My position on this is that everything is a patch on fundamental inequality and I’d rather just get to anarcho-communism so we don’t have to solve 100 individual problems caused by historical racism and the capitalist machinery that lets that manifest as unjust distribution of wealth.
Regardless of age and gender and familial success in past generations we should all be equal.
(I’m not gonna argue that either)

It’s not just semantics the idea that the US is leading implies passive influence rather than active influence.
They’re leading not through inspiration and innovation but as they would with a leash.

yes but the kernel of truth is that is a bit shocking that they were self aware enough to admit not having the information, that’s better than most conservatives
- Comment on It Turns Out, Steam’s Adult Content Ban Has Been Plotted For A Year And Is Spearheaded By One Of Project 2025’s Leading Voices 3 weeks ago:
The US isn’t a leader in anything they are imperialist and they meddle. It’s not leadership it’s influence. They’ve consolidated political, economic, and military power and they use all of those to varying degrees to meddle in everyone’s affairs
- Comment on It Turns Out, Steam’s Adult Content Ban Has Been Plotted For A Year And Is Spearheaded By One Of Project 2025’s Leading Voices 3 weeks ago:
Very shocking to me that a conservative would barge in with a strong conservative opinion but not know what’s going on and having barely tried to find out.

Explain how exercise helps men achieve fitness if it causes them to spontaneously combust.
How can exercise be helpful if it’s setting people on fire?
Given that exercise harms people: how is it helpful?
Explain that.

If you grow up you’ll realize your hatred is self hatred and your problems are due to your lack of confidence.
You are really broken, and you’ll be alone until you fix yourself.
You’re right that no woman deserves you, but not for the reasons you think

100+ years of socialist and communist philosophy and nobody considered that actually human capitalist by nature though

Fuck off with your capitalist realism. The same arguments could have been made with feudalism before it.
Maybe you lack the historical knowledge and imagination to imagine a better world but your personal failures aren’t reflective of “human nature.”
- Comment on Custodians 2 months ago:
as a society there’s more than enough to take care of a disproportionate amount of “non-workers” but instead we make up fake bullshit jobs and force people to work 40 hour weeks so a tiny fraction of us can send their second plane to pick up their girlfriend to go on a date in Italy
