  • I hear you. I was looking more for Arch with less of a hassle. Something similar to my Steamdeck. I guess I should just wipe this weekend for something else. I really want something for playing my steam and GOG games that works with my Nvidia 3080.

    Luckily for me I keep every game installed on different Steam Libraries so wiping my install drive to put something else in isn’t difficult.






  • I just installed Manjaro over my windows 10 drive and the effort so far has been way easier than I thought.

    KDE Plasma reminds me a lot of WIn 10, and nearly everything I did on my windows system works under Linux without hassle. The only issue I had were certain technical things like overlooking my GPU and setting up my LED lights.






  • The problem now is that they stopped prescribing opiates for people go need them. Now, the suicide rate has increased for those with Chronic Pain issues. Many places stopped giving Pain medication after major surgeries.

    They were giving Ocycontin for minor muscle pain, because regular doctors were told that it had no abuse risk. Now, they assume everyone has the predisposition for opioid addiction, when it’s only 5% of the population or so.

    As a person who needs pain meds daily just to function, I miss the days when doctors were able to focus on doctring instead of withholding treatment because the DEA wants to arrest doctors. Over 20 years I’ve been on opiates and when I get a prescription canceled, or need to change meds, I stop them and after 3 days I’m clean again.

    It’s not that big of a deal when you don’t get high from regular dosages. I never moved to the black market, I usually just suffer and complain to my doctor politely when I can’t get out of bed and bathe myself because they stop my medications.

    Many other people choose Suicide be abuse constant 24/7 pain takes a heavy toll on your psyche.





  • You can redact a lot without losing the focus of what is found in a report of this magnitude. It happens a lot in many businesses that had investigations.

    If they don’t have the skill to write that, then why are they a media company to begin with?

    Why is the statement written personally instead of as a standard press release?

    This note sounds more to the point that Linus didn’t know anything of what happened, so nothing was wrong. Lastly, they said that they would have a report for us after the investigation was done. Without putting the report out, they can’t hope to put this all behind them. There will always be a shadow order them still. Also, saying that they don’t have to publish a report because they are a private company will only let more people think they are hiding something.

    The investigation was to show they weren’t hiding anything, and without a report showing the allegations were false they haven’t done anything.
