What about Steam? Linux gaming would be a whole lot worse off without Proton

Why does this sound AI generated

Fun fact, “fos” means “liquid shit” in Hungarian, applies literally in this case

Am I the only one who’s fine with typing a password?

I don’t really get what people mean when describing Gnome or any DE as “out of the way”. I’ve never felt like KDE was “in my way”.

“A chance for Faramir, captain of Gondor, to show his quality”

(he slays orks using Arch btw)

One would think that, but I’ve seen many claims that it actually runs faster. I wouldn’t know personally, I haven’t used Windows in 5 years

Yep it looks cleaner than btop imo

“But it’s so convenient” is a close second

“But why would they care about MY data, I don’t do anything special”

Anyone outside of tech when I even passingly mention privacy

I like to dunk on nvidia as much as anyone but really driver support has not been as much of a problem these last few years, other than Wayland it sort of just works for me

Good point, it’s always a tendency and I don’t know where the cut off is. Subjectively I’d say Hungary is nowhere near there. Especially since as I see it, our government’s tendencies don’t come from genuine ideological conviction but selfish interest. If anything it’s an oppressive oligarchy, but not fascism. I hope I’m not just coping.

Wikipedia’s definition:

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

In my understanding, only some of these things can be argued to be true about Hungary, and none of them to an extreme extent. Of course I don’t know the future and I won’t excuse the crimes of my government, again I left the country because of them, but I want to be realistic and fascism isn’t a word I would throw around lightly.

Hungary is seriously fucked up at the moment but calling it fascism is a huge stretch. It’s not like these fuckers actually believe in anything, they’ll just do whatever gets them the votes and the cash. Not that the tendencies aren’t worrying (in fact I’ve left the country because of them), but it’s not a full blown dictatorship yet. Source: am Hungarian.

It felt so great when I finally wiped my Windows drive back in the day. Suddenly I had an extra drive to distro hop to my heart’s content without having to wipe the previous distro 👌

Ah, I see. Sorry, irony in pure text form can be difficult to spot.

You speak from my heart brother, those fuckers are destroying Hungary’s future.

Impressed? With Budapest? Outside of the nice touristy areas it’s a poverty-ridden cesspool

And there’s a neovim plugin for it. It’s my favorite git client.

Pseudo-scientific jibber-jabber doesn’t actually work? Color me shocked

Well, I should have worded it better. Minor issues happen every once in a while, not semi-bricked systems. On my current installation of Endeavour (an Arch derivative) which is about 1 year old, the only thing that broke for maybe a few days was Steam when they rolled out their new UI, but I could work around that by using a command line argument which I found through simple googling - no technical knowledge required, at least not more than an average gamer would have. And the issue was solved with the next nvidia update.

Your mileage may vary of course, but for me I don’t feel I’ve had more issues on Arch than other distros.
