  • Rts is great but many people nowadays don’t touch the genre and the people that play it are spread out across every rts game that ever existed. TA still has a community and it came out in 1997.

    I’ve always played rts games extremely casually never playing single player but never playing 1v1 ranked. When you’re bad the games take so much longer and start slower. So it’s litterally a more boring game until you get good.

    Playing beyond all reason and playing 1v1s for the first time has forced me to drop my noob habits and actually play rts properly. Its intense having to manage your raiding units while expanding while protecting that expansion while scouting while keeping your base safe and growing. But it’s so rewarding when you win.

    Now I see newer players and what they have to go through I understand why so many quit. They join a lobby called “all welcome” then get kicked because no one wants the noob on their team. They get flamed. People run circles around them in game and attack before they have a single unit out. Rts is hard to learn but so fun once you have the basics down and can actually start developing strategies and reacting to your opponents in real time. Idk even know what I’m trying to say here I just woke up.





  • I had an issue with scrolling. I would scroll down and sometimes it would scroll up. I put up with this for months thinking it was probably a linux issue and would be fixed with updates. Until today when I plugged a different mouse in and realized the problem was my mouse. I tried turning the mouse upside down and rubbing it vigorously across the carpet like reddit suggested but it didn’t fix it so I gave up.

    As for linux issues I have switched to Wayland full-time after at least 30+ attempts and it seems to work now except for a flameshot issue which I fixed via a kwin rule and my steam client glitches out when I open the library but it fixes itself if I resize the window.






  • Law maker enacts legislation towards a company. The company is able to comply but instead the company pulls the service or severelyndegrades it. Then when users are pissed off the company will point to the law maker and say “they forced us to do this”. The law maker then suffers the blacklash of companies service withdrawal.

    Apple tried this with the EU usb c but eventually backed down. John deer tried this with right to repair. There are many cases where companies use these tactics to try and bully law makers away from regulating them and I think i know it’s legal and their right to do so but I find it gross.

    I don’t think the law makers should be solving the “problem” this way but I also don’t think pornhub should deny service from an entire state because they want an an ID check implemented.




  • Pornhub is only pulling out to punish the states for trying to stand up to them. In classic American monopoly fashion they go on the attack as soon as any legislation targets them.

    Pornhub claims the reason is because they dont to collect government ID but Pornhub collects user data and understands who their customers are. Adding government ID to their data would hardly be anymore of a privacy invasion and it’s not like they are forced to store it.






  • Life is interesting. Even on the most mundane boring day I can entertain myself in my thoughts. I don’t really get extreme mood swings like when I was a teenager. No matter how sad I am it doesn’t feel like the world is over. It’s enjoyable to exist from the small things like sun shining on my skin to the milestones.

    If my life ever changed and I was struggling with no chance of getting back on track I would consider changing my outlook.
