NATO really needs a revision to allow it to remove a member.

I have Nvidia, the actual experience of driver updating and installation on Nobara was seamless, it just has a setup tool that detects the card and downloads the drivers. The same was true for other peripherals, my razer keyboard and mouse were easy to setup, there was a tool for my XBOX controller.

The recommendation to get AMD is reasonable for new builds, but it's also one of those little issues. I'm just not willing to give up my 4080 for a less capable piece of hardware. But again, I didn't have any real issues, even VRR and dual monitors worked fine. Ray tracing was working in Steam games, but I couldn't figure out how to get it running for my GOG games and whatnot. Like I said, it's so close to being ready for daily driving, but not my personal use case.

I spent a few months last year running Nobara. I'm back on Windows unfortunately. There are a ton of games that ran just fine, but there's also a lot of little issues. For example, in Grim Dawn I couldn't type in chat, in Pathfinder WotR I simply couldn't get mods to work, STALKER Anomaly simply wouldn't load. Then there was the big issue of my mouse cursor dropping below full screen games. Still there, but not visible. The only fix I could use was to restart the computer.

It's tantalizingly close to ready, and if you don't care about modding it probably already is. For me it just didn't work out, yet.

Land... and the people that live on it. Being a forced citizen of Russia is not a great outcome. Ask some folks as they leave the torture chambers. Conscription is rough, but there's a clear difference in conscription to attack and destroy a nation and its people, or defend it. It's totally reasonable for people to lose their citizenship if they want others to defend it while they hide. War sucks, but being conquered by Russia sucks more.

The crab, damn.

Sometimes even old enemies can be brought together by the discovery of what they have in common as opposed to what divides them. Violent atrocities against civilians for example.

It's perfectly reasonable for PC gamers who use the Steam platform, which provides copy protection, to be annoyed by having to sign onto services they otherwise would never use. There is no purpose to it aside from marketing and data collection.

I don't think the protests would be happening if the current administration wasn't providing significant assistance in the acts of genocide being perpetrated by Israel. I'm very glad I'm not American, faced with voting for an evil man who has deep connections to genocide to prevent an evil man who will accelerate the course of the country into fascism. I am however a little concerned that my country is on the same continent.

We could also use the descriptor, "anti-genocide" for these protests, but that's a bit on the nose I guess.

Secretly supplied is an interesting take. The Ukrainians officially released video of them launching ATACMS hours after the airbase in Crimea was hit. I'm some jackass on the internet and had heard from multiple sources that the system was arriving. Poor headlines aside, definitely a good system, though it doesn't increase strike range over Scalp/Stormshadow, it just adds another way to hit. That's handy, I'm sure the numbers will be tiny though, it's pretty overpriced for what it is.

The preamble of the article clarifies that documents showing that his advisors told him if he kept the documents he would be charged, have been unsealed. The obvious importance being that he cannot use the defence of, "Who knew?!"

Wait, I though genocide was hip again. Confusing.
