Supervillain origin story if I’ve ever heard one

Could anyone provide translations for what the Chinese side is saying?

One of my favourite quotes to bring up whenever someone is cooking

I am very popular in the kitchen

I’m glad I’m not the only one confused by the concept of salt undergoing metamorphosis

My tired brain looked at the thumbnail and thought that CRINK was some new onomatopoeia for wine glasses being tapped together

Why does the USA have jurisdiction over what TSMC (a Taiwanese company, AFAIK) does with their manufacturing tools, even if they come from the US?

I’ve heard if grassroots politics, but this is rrhiziculous

Centipedes make me viscerally uncomfortable

Are they going to fix all the inaccuracies in the old one?

You tell them, Kwi-Chang! No more big government!

As AMD, Intel, Tenstorrent, and other companies develop better hardware, more software developers will be inclined to design for these platforms, and Nvidia’s CUDA dominance could ease over time.

This seems a bit optimistic to me. CUDA is currently the de facto method of utilising a GPU’s power efficiently. This makes them an easy choice for anyone with serious compute power needs. The other manufacturers are fighting an uphill battle trying to create an alternative that won’t be used until it is definitively better.

This just seems like a catch 22 to me

You can install Heroic Games launcher, which is an alternative Epic + GOG front-end (it also works on Windows and is apparently better than the real thing). You can use it to manage the compatibility layers similarly to Steam, but in my experience its function is on a game-by-game basis

As another commenter has said, go through ProtonDB and check all the games you can’t live without

Starting now, can’t wait for the eternal pressure and existential dread!

I’ve used phind a few times and it’s pretty good. I’m not sure if it’s open source, though

Not a whole lot of experience distro-hopping here (went from Ubuntu to Endeavour and haven’t really changed since) but from what I know it seems like most distros have their place. Arch is highly customisable and all rolling release distros are good for gamers and those who need the latest software. Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, and other LTS distros are good for servers and newcomers (fewer big updates and therefore fewer potential crises)

For the sake of answering the question, I’d say Ubuntu is my least favourite. Its pretty bloated, and then there’s the whole snap fiasco
