Today I have seen more “just use Linux” messages than ever before.
Gurl, until Linux can absolutely get down plug-n-play like behavior, the general public will not be ready for Linux unless everyone gets a huge dosage of computer literacy.
And I will tell you now, from teaching adults: hahahahaha

So, just to be clear, in addition to sending queer people out into the cold to starve or freeze to death, the SA also:
- provides food services for ICE
- provides correctional services to the carceral system
- union busts
They’re almost comedically evil.

The apartment building my Grandparents were living in burned down when my mother was a baby. The Salvation Army assisted the other tenants with emergency housing. They wouldn't help my Mom's family because they were Jewish.
I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

If you use or were considering using SAMMI, switch to a different program.
The new sole developer is extremely pro-AI, has already started using it in the code, and is in support of its use for genAI images as well. Everyone who protested this was told to leave the server and stop using SAMMI.

Alright, Microsoft knowingly putting AI that can easily give you malware on your computer is sort of the last nail in the coffin.
So time to seriously start digging into distros and dual booting as I get comfy with linux.
But also, while I go on this journey, let me help demystify some of this.

I hate living in a state where gambling is legalized, because the disgusting amount of gambling ads that get served up.
I don't even gamble with twitch channel points or in games, unless forced to. That is how much I do not care for gambling.
