Big words for a small man on the internet. Do you have receipts from your actions? I’d love to see them.

Pot calling the kettle black a bit ain’t ya.

I hope you do walk the walk to go along with your big talk, but take responsibility for your words too. Statements like yours gives people a reason to feel “good enough” about “slightly less genocide”. And if we all keep repeating the mantra “slightly less genocide”, we can feel “good enough” all the way to complete genocide.

Then we can all wear a big frown so everyone knows how upset we are about it.

People Who Say It Cannot Be Done Should Not Interrupt Those Who Are Doing It

No, of course not, it’s just saying their argument is something that it isn’t. I swear there is a term for that.

To be fair, I get it. Because I can’t hear your arguments as anything other than “I support genocide”.

I can’t hear these arguments as anything other than “I support Trump.”

Strawman much?

Republicans hate this one simple trick!

Lol, okay, I’ll give you that. I’m not well.

Maybe, but since you don’t know who my personal nutjobs are, maybe your assumptions are fundamentally flawed? Maybe they have run for lower office? Maybe they have won elections? Maybe they aren’t grifters, but concerned citizens who truly want to make a difference in the best way they know how? Maybe assuming someone is falling for grifters is a silly way to try and start an internet fight?

Or maybe I was taken in by a grifter all along and would still benefit from Ranked Choice Voting so I don’t throw away my vote and let Trump back in the Whitehouse? Either way it’s an improvement.

Fwiw, my personal nutjob is Bernie, and even if he didn’t win, I consider the shift he made in American politics to have value in its own right.

Perhaps, but I’d feel a lot better knowing I was able to vote for my fringe nutjob without handing their fringe nutjob the Whitehouse. And if my fringe nutjob lost, then I could still keep voting for who I truly believe is best. And by the time all my fringe nutjobs were eliminated, and I had to vote for a Democrat again, I’d at least know that we truly and democratically came to that answer. I don’t have to be “right” about the best candidate, but I hate casting a damage control vote that feels like a lie.

So as it stands, I hate voting, I hate having to vote for Democrats, and I just suck it up and do it anyway because we don’t have the time to collectively push for a better option.

Plus, if everyone could vote for their fringe nutjob without fear of giving the election to the worst possible option, we might find out that more people support ideas outside of the two party system. Maybe even shifting the Overton window and opening the door for a more representative electorate.

Okay, maybe it’s not so black and white… But she definitely contributed.

Seconding this. And as another lemming said, moving a working setup from a Windows system can make your life easier. But once you have MO2 running, most mods can just be installed in it like normal. Though SteamOS makes it more trouble than its with to auto download mods via mod manager. Easier just to use the manual download option and then manually install it. (I set my MO2 downloads folder to be ~/Downloads to make my lifer easier on this)

Also, there is a Linux specific version of the 4GB patch. You have to make it executable and run it in the terminal to actually get it to patch.

You can run things like the BSA decompressor using proton tricks.

Or you can just run the 4GB patch and the BSA decompressor on a windows install and then copy the whole FNV folder over to your deck (overwriting files). That works too.

If you are a TTW kind of guy, do that on Windows, making it an installable mod, and then just copy that over. And do it before the BSA decompressor, or you will need to make a clean install of FNV.

Honestly, if you install MO2 using the link Headbangerd17 linked above, you can pretty much just follow the Viva New Vegas gude. Just use protontricks for the BSA decompressor and the Ultimate ESM fixes things, and the linux specific 4gb patch. Or again, do all of it on Windows and copy over the game folder and the MO2 folder.

P.S. Its possible to get a complete setup on the deck alone, but if you go that route, it will save a lot of time to plug in a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Or pair it to your work computer via SteamLink and do it while you’re supposed to be working.

P.P.S xLODGen can be added to MO2 and run on Linux just like it can on Windows. Though the SteamDeck does take a long time to actually generate LOD, so best to do it in chunks to make sure it looks good. It’s really sad when all the rocks look like stretched buildings after you waited for all worldspaces to generate. Trust me.

Your not wrong, though that kinda re-enforces my point. What would it take to convince a society to abandon an inherently unethical economic system?

This will be something of a unhelpful and unpopular answer, by you probably can’t.

What would convince you to stop eating meat from factory farms? What would convince you to only buy electronics from completely ethically sourced companies? What would convince you to only eat healthy nutritional food? To exercise regularly? So on and so forth?

There are many good and important, but inconvenient, things to do. But for most folks, the first step is wanting to. If he doesn’t, it will be an uphill battle.

Who could stay away from Zion? It’s a lovely national park and the folks I meet there are usually very nice!

No! Always make assumptions! They make conversations faster!

Comparison mostly. HD and 3D isn’t impressing you by virtue of it being superior to real life (it isn’t after all), it’s impressing you compared to other examples of the same thing done “worse”. The best portrait artist in the world can not make something look more “real” than the reference material, but it can compared to other attempts at painting.

This is true in other natural things as well. For example, a really big tree surrounded by smaller similar sized trees feels “really impressive” compared to a mountain surrounded by other… similar sized mountains. Or why a particularly colorful plant seems impressive surrounded by a bunch of green and brown plants.

On the other hand, things like OLED screens can be impressive compared to the natural world due to their ability to arrange and display colors rarely found in nature.

While I could see the wisdom in not propping up a vegetable, I’m not sure acknowledging that they a propping up a vegetable is any more of a “winning strategy”.

Fun fact, Trump ran for the Reform Party nomination, which eventually went to Pat Buchanan, back in 2000.

ranting: noun

a long, angry, and impassioned speech. “at times, his rantings would become incoherent”

adjective

speaking at length in an angry and impassioned way.

I’m more familiar with the definition that includes the length of the speech. If you were using a definition that only refers to the energy, then I wouldn’t call it hyperbole.

Calling it ranting is hyperbole, but but he did randomly start talking about immigrants murdering women when answering the question about abortion.

Weird, seems like we had the opposite experience. On my home network SteamLink is usually about 30-40ms for me, where Moonlight is around 10ms.

Remotely SteamLink is usually about 50ms higher than Moonlight.

This is true when connecting to my Windows and Linux machines.
