Huh, as a Linux user who puts up with Proton's unwillingness to support Linux, to me this seems to he saying "Stop paying for Proton until they make Linux clients"

Literally every media outlet curates which stories it publishes, this is not unique to this website.

This sort of ridiculousness is why I got two seperate drives (needed the extra space anyways) and choose which one to boot from the mobo EFI menu.

Israel existed long before America or England were nation states.

Yes, let's just forget all the history about how the Jews were scattered during various occupations over the last 3000-4000 years.

Is Israel just really bad at genocide or am I missing something?

Because Israel has been trying to genocide the Palestinians for at least a decade and a half according to this infographic, and according to others since the creation of the current state of Israel in 1948 (which is really just an indigenous population returning to their millennial-long ancestral home) and the Palestians are are not only there, but the population is growing.

 

Since a Linux client for Drive doesn't appear to be in the works for anytime soon, having folder statistics (ex. # items in the folder, size of data in the folder) available from the web app would be pretty damn useful for figuring out if a given folder matches an offline backup.

(Yes I know that unofficially there's the rclone thing but I tried that and got an "unusual account activity" error).

More broadly, it would be really helpful if Proton worked on base functionality for their existing products rather continuing to launch new products.

Gaming works pretty damn well as far as I'm concerned, the few that I can't get to work are irrelevant.

I'm keeping Windows around for work... fuck Autodesk and fuck Dassault. So I am trying to get a VM with GPU pass through to work (had it working once but then I screwed it up and now I can't seem to get it working again).

Eh, so does Western Liberalism and basically every other government for the last hundreds of years, I'd argue that they are even authoritarian to very similar degrees but about different things.

Not a bad lisy actually, although I heavily disagree with the military and police budgets line... Authoritarian left regimes are known for very high police and military budgets even with heavily states controlled economies.

Edit: police and military spending tends to relate more to the libertarian-authoritarian spectrum rather than the socioeconomic left-right spectrum
