    Finally! Thank you. Makes lots of sense. I’ve fucked up at least two systems in my life by messing with drivers/settings when I didn’t know what I was doing. That would have certainly helped. I’ll have to check it bazzite. I game too through Steam/Proton and it’s not exactly a 100% match in terms of performance when compared to Windows.

    Okay, I get what an immutable distro is. I get it’s advantages in security/safety. But can someone please explain why this matters? Like, how much safer is this really? I don’t understand the cost/benefit ratio of having an immutable core, especially since compromising the core will probably require fully compromising one or more privileged processes first, at which point it would be game over for a mutable distro as well.





  • This article is great, super information sense, doesn’t try to spin a narrative, just investigates the facts.

    I find it crazy that as a system this guy of all people managed to slip though the cracks. An autist with Hitler’s signature tatooed on his arm, combined with arrests and jail time for stalking and harassing women, and nobody thought to give this guy the mandatory anti radicalization treatment? Kind of insane. Lots of holes in the Swiss Cheese model.

    On the other hand, what could have been done? The guy had no social support network, no family that would have taken care of him. You can’t force someone to have friends, or to get them to take the prerequisite steps to overcome whatever might be holding them back. Getting rid of X? Maybe that would help things in aggregate, but I’m and optimist and believe that people are smart enough to no be racist just because their feed is.





  • Basically, Japan is the most developed nation on earth. Not because of technology, or culture, or anything of the sort. But they were the first developed nation to have their birth rate drop and pyramid start shrinking. In that sense, their policies are ahead of every country on earth that still keeps admitting massive amounts of immigrants to keep their populations up.
