To be fair, it’s about other things, too. Like Jenny’s character’s arc had nothing to do with that part.

I took OP’s reply as meaning they posted the meme as a joke, but assumed they got it from somewhere else.
I think it is a joke, though not one we’re supposed to be in on.
The hint is that that is a very well made map for someone who doesn’t understand how water flow really works. They turned the ocean trenches into rivers. It’s a parody of someone who doesn’t understand gravity but still uses it properly in demonstrating how it should look incorrectly.
I still can’t tell if most instances of them are a) genuine, b) trolling stupid people into believing dumb shit, c) trolling smart people into believing they believe something stupid and enjoying the frustration as they fail to convince them otherwise, or d) conning true believers like that guy who just wanted to fund his private rocket launch did.
Like it started with group B, but it’s impossible to tell group A and C/D apart, if they are really dedicated to the bit. Like those youtubers who did various expreiments that would show which way it was, got results consistent with ball earth, then dismissed those results as something being wrong with their experiment could be strong denial but also just sounds like trolling and if I had to bet, I’d probably bet on it being a troll (or someone knowing their video will get way more hits like that because it’s a hilarious result that did get a lot of round earthers to watch to mock it).
Tldr, I think we might all be getting played, though none as much as the poor fools that really do believe and donate to “flat earth science”.


Like for instance, when epic came out with their exclusive access titles being a part of their business plan, valve could have responded with their own exclusive access system and had a good chance of killing off epic and others in the process. Instead they just ignored it and people like me continued using them and didn’t even consider epic even when their anticompetitive actions switched to ones that would have benefitted me (free games), because I could see the shithole they wanted to bring gaming to if their platform achieved dominance.


I’m sure there’s plenty of other reasons to not steal a tesla. It being a mobile surveillance device being one of them. Also, if I was going to steal a car, I’d pick one with better build quality and one that doesn’t have a different fire exit than the normal way to exit that I’d probably be going for if my car was suddenly on fire.
Some people say they love disco. But I have to ask: what is love?


You can emulate it by opening up your mouse and carefully ripping all of the button switches other than the left one out. Then go into your BIOS, underclock your CPU (or alternatively, go to the store you got your computer or parts from and just give them more money).
Then get some plaster and just cover up most of the ports on the back of your computer. Don’t worry, you’ll replace them with dongles, there’s a nice selection available for purchase!
Then uninstall proton and go around claiming that your computer is the only one that can handle making art (doesn’t matter if you’re an artist, just smugly insist this is the case).
Oh also forget that your computer is a computer. I don’t know what you need to think it is, but only nerds use computers, you’re not a nerd, you’re cool because you’re on a mac. Or pretending to be on one.
It is cruel, but after you hit one appliance with a bat, it tends to get a lot less flighty.
There needs to be repeating patterns for a magic eye to work. Then that pattern is adjusted to create the 3d image when you “mix up” the part of the pattern each eye is looking at.
Have they even given a potential price yet?


That “or else” is pretty great, though. Using linux after windows might feel like getting into a healthy relationship after being in an abusive and controlling relationship.


No, I’m on Fedora 41, though 42 just came out.
Try a live USB to see if you like the interface. I suggest KDE-plasma if your computer is decent. It’s easy to switch desktops but just be aware that they can make a huge difference in the actual experience of using it, since the desktop is the way you generally interact with the OS. HDR seems to be working fine on KDR, too (wasn’t implemented on cinnamon).
But from what I’ve heard, Bazzite is another solid choice, especially if you have an nvidia GPU. Though it’s immutable IIRC, which I don’t understand the full implications of but might be worth looking into to help make your decision.


I’m not very impressed that they used an optimization that blew up the game size 5x that they knew would only benefit a subset of users without even doing any profiling on it until 2 years after release. Good that they eventually revisited it, but someone fucked up making that decision in the first place.


Funny how you say that when the extra space was used specifically to improve the experience for people still using HDDs. It’s 2025, no one using an HDD should be complaining about load times.


The Atlantic is mostly missing, too (Brazil is directly south of Liberia). It’s clearly a map made by Indian Ocean supremacists.
They might be ragdoll type cats, named that way because they tend to flop and relax when picked up instead of trying to regain control or aceept it but hate it like other cats.


If you’re reluctant because you’re expecting it to be a huge pain at first while you do setup and get used to it, I found it actually easier to get things set up on Linux the way I liked them than it does on a new windows install, or sometimes even after a windows update that resets some settings to default (without saying anything other than “your system is up to date” of course). It helped that most defaults are decent. The most time taken during the install was looking up what some choices meant in higher detail.
Though I do have an AMD GPU, if you have an nvidia GPU, you’ll only get that easy experience on certain distros specifically set up for that, as I understand. Other distros can work with nvidia but require more tinkering as I understand. But for me, I didn’t even have to install GPU drivers. The first game I launched was more of a “wait, will this really just work without needing to install anything else?” than a “ok, time to play a game”. And it did work, at least after checking the “always use proton” option in Steam.
And don’t worry too much about which desktop you initially select. It’s almost trivial to install and switch to another. Just be aware that cinnamon relies heavily on some form of JavaScript, to the point that my high end PC couldn’t keep up with rapid mouse movement without dropping some of the updates, though tbf it wasn’t a huge impact. But KDE-plasma handles the mouse way better. That’s on Fedora.
Iirc you can create custom syntax highlighting formats for notepad++. So if it’s not there by default, someone else might have made a file for it, or you can start making one yourself, as the format was easy to understand. It’s been like a decade since I’ve used it, but it should be somewhere in the menus.
