Had to make sure this was here. Good work.

This comment is how I always hope my info dumps go when someone asks me a technical question about something I have good experience in using. 10/10 comment, love it.

First answer to me is Chris Christodoulou, who did everything for Risk of Rain and Risk of Rain 2. The man knows how to let ambient vibes build to boss music

My thinly-veiled lack of understanding of Linux is in shambles. CPU optional?

From what I can tell, it's a juxtaposition thing. Many of the other shooters used in memes have stances that appear outlandish, and have gear that looks a little strange, almost trending towards ridiculous. The man you're referencing, Yusuf looks incredibly casual in comparison. His stance is at least recognizable as a shooting stance (even if it's almost appears too casual), his hand is in his pocket, and he isn't visibly using any of the gear that many other shooters are.

I haven't kept track very closely outside of the memes, so I can't comment on Yusuf's performance in comparison to the others, but the memes paint his character to be someone that gets the task done with minimal resources, where the others are given the role of a "tryhard" for the sake of the meme.

Evidently the imagery of these competitive shooters resonated with enough people that Lemmy had a small breakdown, but I always love to see my Lemmy feed trend into one topic for an evening or two. We all remember the beef stroganoff incident.

I appreciate the informative reply!

Now I'm just curious about you, after seeing your posts. I've seen a couple of games come up more than once, but a pretty wide variety of games that usually take a lot of time to get through. Have you been hopping back and forth between some "new to you" games while you come back to Skyrim every now and again? I've seen a fair amount of RPGs of some variety, are those your mainstay for games?

I personally have not moved to Linux as my daily juuuust yet, so I'm relatively uninformed, but I am curious. What were these "proprietary" versions the article mentions before the open source ones that it's comparing against? Were they also Nvidia released, just closed source, or would those be from OEMs (Dell, Lenovo, etc) who include Nvidia hardware in their laptops/desktops that are shipping with Linux installed by default?

I do love me a blurry graph. Really helps me understand how fast.

I definitely agree that whatever decision the courts make, this person is not going to be properly rehabilitated via the sentence.

I obviously have no expertise in the matter, but I really do wonder what the appropriate "consequence" would be for something like this. They're still a child, basically at 12. But they committed to doing something VERY permanent. Do they have any understanding for what it is they've done? I would think they have a semblance of it. Emotions, hormones, and everything about a pre-pubescant can run hot at those ages, but this was an egregious failure for self control.

I'm very likely just being a fence sitter about it. Murdering someone over something petty like this would be an obvious charge for an assumed adult. Just hard to wrap my head around it when I see news like this I guess.

Thank you for taking the time to post the quotes like this. Interesting to read, and makes me think I should probably see a therapist.

I can only sympathise, and thank you for posting this because I need to hear good things right now too.
