ROFL They've gotten breached so many times and drained of data, it's cute that they are trying to gaslight consumers into believing this bullshit! It's all about looking popular and inflating their free accounts, so those freeloaders can become payers at some point in time. Steam is far more secure than Sony, I would prefer that they'd just give up with trying to strong-arm PC gamers into signing up for their PSN Slop.

That was a delayed grift release, no wonder they stealth launched it (given it would've tarnished them even more). I hope they get a lot of shit for this scammy 'game'.

I agree with the idea that NC has a chance to go blue this cycle; as Mark Robinson is a disgusting force in the MAGA space. He is one of the most vile that MAGA GOP have allowed to represent them. I can only hope people wake the fuck up and vote in favor of their interests instead of against themselves. In the past, at least some of the MAGA era scum have been a bit less vile (still people who were ethically impaired). Mark Robinson makes JD Vance look relatively tame if you put them side by side, that really says a lot about Mark.

Mark Robinson is a giant, walking and talking red flag; I really hope he keeps saying the quiet parts out loud and ruins his party's chances to be elected ever again.

Wat? That's like a maliciously clever way to make people earn a Darwin Award.

Oh, for fun! Aren't they training these gun-worshiping weirdos that making use of the safety is a sound practice?

Huh, well I guess they're desperate for ideas.

Just another mind-blind, creatively bankrupt POS who wants to shill something that won't save comedy! I've found comedy to be quite alive, with freaking hilarious stand up comics! We can't forget about The Onion, masters of satire. I can't wait for this latest scam to go away.

It's a big YMMV experience with Linux, it just boiled down to mental load in comparison to Windows; Remembering all manner of commands and how to do certain things, along with that subset of hostile Linux users on help forums has made it an OS that I will use only in a dire situation. Linux is mostly for those who aren't afraid to tinker with the OS and have time to figure out what the hell is wrong with their PC in case of a strange situation occurring. Ubuntu worked really well for me for years (except the times it didn't, and I Googled my way to a solution each time). I did miss the ease of installing games and just having them work without extra steps (a common issue for most games). I also expanded my console games library so that the game variety is not lacking.

Windows is admittedly easier to maintain, and I never have any encountered any major concerns since the Windows 7 days and once while on Windows 10. As far as compatibility goes, I know most of my Steam and GOG libraries are compatible with Linux, since I've a tendency to buy games which are supported on Linux. I made sure to give myself a decent library as a result in case Microsoft screwed the pooch enough that I needed to go back to a Linux distro.

Microsoft's own incompetence has made Windows 11 a failure. The system requirements really made it a flop (possibly an intentional part of their plan to boost hardware sales but create a ton of e-waste as a result). I'm running Windows 11 as my PC meets the specs, it's not a bad OS persay as it works for my day to day needs. However, if I didn't game on PC I would probably switch completely to Linux. I stay on Windows as it is for the time being convenient to do so. If the next version of Windows has a dire increase in regards to specifications...I would likely go back to Ubuntu!
