  • Yeah but Trump and Musk are showing the worst behavior of humanity in front of the entire planet. That scene in idiocracy with the president could easily be Trump or Musk. So I dont know if its a joke anymore.

    There is no attempt to be a good person, have any morals, any shame… In fact, its the opposite of those things that make money and creates infamous individuals that get all the attention.

    So its logical to assume that this path will continue, where any attention is great because it makes money through ads connected to what people are watching.

    Of course we could say that humanity should not pay attention to this. That worked while the people doing the bad things were just celebrities. Now we have presidents and billionaires doing those things. Its affecting everyone what they say or do.

    I think its easy to get a general sense of dread from observing all this. Many feel like the world has gone crazy. But its more that these specific people are getting the attention, or rather, taking it.

    Thats great but im not sure its very specific to bazzite. Ive been gaming on arch for many years and all games work, pretty much. :)

    Have you tried to install apps from the arch AUR? Im curious if they follow the system theme and if they are found by the system launcher as ordinary apps. They are running in a container so i wonder if that makes them behave differently. Flatpaks can have the same issues.


  • Thank you for sharing the official information from the government, very valuable to know that immigration is actually amazing for sweden. We should celebrate!

    I for one is very happy that the government always makes positive decisions for our country. We are lucky that they are so wise. I think most of the issues we have are misunderstandings. I mean, gangs obviously are a bit clumsy when they throw grenades into apartments and the government should educate them how to handle explosives to not harm eachother. Perhaps they can play a game of chess to manage their differences instead. I will suggest this to our government. Thank you for your wise comment.

    Also, who is to say what is correct when it comes to treatment of women. Perhaps its very good that they wear burkas in Sweden, so men are not tempted by their appearence? Whats the harm in that right?

    Also, who is to say that building mosques instead of churches isnt an amazing development for our country? It could be super wise. It will make new Swedish citizens feel super welcome here.

    I have learned a lot. Thank you!




  • I think people just dont know how good it is. The apt system with fixed versions is super annoying compared to arch. I have never felt that i need to stay on some old version of software ever. Sure there has been a few times when some version is bugged and then I just stayed on a old version for a few weeks, which is very easy to do with pacman.

    Im almost envious of you… I did that like 15 years ago and there is so many fun things to run and learn. So many desktop environments, tiling window managers, programming languages, ricing attempts…

    I used arch almost all the time, with just a few times trying other distros to see what they are about. But nothing is as good as arch, mostly because of the AUR and its excellent docs.

    Now bazzite is the new hot thing so could be fun to try that I guess, but dont want to remove my lovely arch.



  • All the poor are obviously not educating themselves, which is the point i made above. Even when its free. In general, an education in a field that needs people will lead to decent income. Not if you choose to be reading energies from emeralds.

    Some people just dont want to study because its hard and requires struggling for years.

    Your theory is not realistic until either learning becomes so easy that you can click a button, or genetic manipulation makes everyone have a super easy time to learn things.

    Then yes, you would have everyone educated. That will not happen in a long time. Humanity has never been educated as a whole. The class system has always existed.




  • Yes but this has accelerated it. I dont actually read anything anymore. I just ask chat gpt. In the end, it will make me dependent on it. And so many people will go that route, for different reasons.

    Doing a web search now feels like wasting a lot of time when chat gpt has the answer already.

    I think this is already changing everything. School system, education, learning, jobs, careers, etc.
