I assume you are joking, but in case you are not, the bonesaw they are talking about is the crown prince of Saudi Arabia:

As a general rule for Linux; Yes, Nvidia hates linux, and the drivers cause issues in a lot of cases.

But Pop! has specifically worded to try to deal with Nvidia, so it might be smooth sailing, depending on which card you have.

As long as you don't have an Nvidia card, choose whichever functional and complete distro (some people call these "beginner" distros).

MintLinux and Pop!OS are normally the two front-runners for new users. Basically, if you use Steam and you don't play online-only games with bad implementations of anti-cheat software, you are good to game on either.

Make a USB that you can "live boot" from, so you can test out how they work with your hardware before you actually install the OS. Generally speaking, Mint works better with AMD, and Pop! works better with Nvidia.

Here’s the official basic guide for Mint:

I think that your comments about Ukraine may get you banned in a lot of places.
Ukraine is not a Nazi state.

I have never used that emulator, but I know that sometimes the installation method of things like emulators can cause issues.
Have you tried both a direct install, and the Flathub version?

Most of them can't do the basic formatting of Lemmy, so in my mind, they are basically useless.

And if you go to the website that the picture is from, the page is a string of text that isn't in a spoken language or a common programming language. So the image is to make you think that it just a silly picture, when it is actually probably something pretty nefarious.

Yesterday, they seemed to always tag a warframe community.

Yeah, it sounds like the desktop version of an Iphone.

I would personally go with:

"Some may say that Mr. Musk was a visionary, and further to the road map laid out by Mr. Musk during the Dealbook Summit, our organization is happy to assist with bringing said business forecast into reality."

  • Past tense on visionary
  • brings up him telling companies to "fuck off"
  • rubs it in that his financial people have clearly told him that this is how Xitter goes belly-up, and that when he tries to fix it, he just makes it worse.
