“Apple does in fact take DEI seriously. But that is exactly the problem, because although DEI sounds so benign, in a very Orwellian sense, it translates to the opposite,” Peck said. “DEI is overtly bigoted against men, white people and straight people by falsely assuming that they are inherently — and irredeemably — racist and sexist oppressors.”

Trying to right the wrongs of the past, committed by people who no longer exist, against people who no longer exist, by discriminating against people now who happen to look like those who did the wrong doing is the most retarded thing ever.
But I guess that's easy for me to say, being that I started life with a giant withdrawal from the global white straight man fund. And never had to work for anything. /s
One of the best responses ever.
Woman may be down for the count, but white men sustained the blows, pulled themselves up from the canvas, and are ready to launch a barrage that no globalist can endure. To their regret, we are alive.
And how many idiots keep buying iPhones?
I switched to an android in December of 2022. I detest that phone. I realize that NONE of the phone makers are decent people but the damned iPhone worked and worked VERY WELL--always. With the android, it's always something. Seriously, trading an iPhone for google shite? Degoogled phones are expensive and I do not buy expensive phones--of any make.
How 'bout not using a "smart" phone?
That would be an obvious solution for privacy, however, there are very useful things that I use my phone for. Of course, all that will end, temporarily or permanently, if the DS is allowed to go there.

Thank you, oh genius. Perhaps if I'd ever heard that term I might have looked it up.
Both Apple and Google literally owned by Satan. It’s like leaving the demon that makes good hardware but is mediocre at tracking you, for the demon that has decent hardware and is excellent at tracking you.
I see what you did there.
Their Macintosh back in the 80s was a lame toy. And it cost a lot. I used one at a job back then. My first "lame toy" computer cost less than $90. I learned BASIC programming on it.
Must have been a ZX-81.
Timex Sinclair 1000. It was a modified version of the British ZX-81, that would work with US televisions. It came out in 1982, and the price quickly dropped from the introductory price of $99.95 because of competition from Commodore and others. When I bought might, I got the computer plus 16K memory pack for less than $90. I switched to the Radio Shack Color Computer the following year.
I ran a Mac from about 2003 until 2020. Loved it. It WORKED and it worked well. You can pooh-pooh the Mac but my experience was great and it wasn't just on the job. Been running Linux since 2020. I like that I'm not being spied on or not as much but the software leaves a lot to be desired, IMHO. The ONE game I've played for many years--no issues on the Mac--is almost impossible to run on the Linux sys. Every time there's a computer issue, I have to reinstall it and then search for the proper drivers. This last time, I was unsuccessful. So, the ONE game I love to play, I cannot.
What game? Unless it uses a rootkit anticheat like EAC it should run just fine on a modern Linux distro. Even then EAC can work.
Due to Proton and Vulkan, Linux is very viable for gaming...much more so than a mac. Check ProtonDB for your title. What's the game rated? If bronze or better it should work.
You'll laugh.....Din's Curse. Stream Deck: Playable. Awaiting further response before giving a rating.
Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. I play Flare but there really is no comparison in terms of graphics, player control, movement, and seemingly endless variations. I originally bought DC from Soldak years ago, played right "out of the box" on the Mac. It's always been an arduous task to add necessary files that must be found and then activate them via the terminal. I bought it again from GOG games awhile back and got it running until several months ago when Ubuntu updated. As I recall, I never got it properly installed.
Thought I'd try to play it within Steam. I saved the player files but when I've tried to start the game, the display is so humongous that I cannot find the initial choices when starting or loading a game. I finally returned it.
Ok so to be fair youre playing a less popular game. That said the game is natively supported in Linux. Sometimes Linux native games aren't maintained, so in places like Steam you can also try the Windows version using Proton which allows Windows games to work in Linux.
Not knocking the game, I like CRPGs. Just noting this is an old, indie game that likely doesn't stay updated. I can find plenty of examples that have similar woes in Mac. Don't forget Mac just changed architecture again. There are many issues running legacy games on latest macs.
I'd need to know a little more. Bit since you own it on GOG I'd try using Heroic Launcher to install, manage and launch the game. It'll let you easily change settings and likely make it easier to launch and troubleshoot.
Good luck!
(The game is Din's Legacy......duh.)
I have wine on my sys; not sure if I tried a windoze version for the game but Proton sounds interesting.
I finally gave up looking for a file in mid-December. I might have had the right one but, since I am not a whiz on Linux and am an old fart and I'd pulled out enough hair at that point, I finally set it aside.
I had made some notes: what to do with this? libgl1-mesa-glx_22.0.1-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
I think the file I needed was libgl1-mesa-glx_22.0.1-1
could not figure out just how to use this: libgl1-mesa-glx_22.0.1-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb I am not good with the terminal; I lack a lot of background experience and knowledge. There is so much going on, so much else to keep up with.
Then there's this: https://pkgs.org/download/libgl1-mesa-glx Didn't know how to make use of this.
Have not heard of "Heroic Launcher." I shall look it up tomorrow.
Thank you for replying.
Ahhh here we go. You helped a ton with your question. 9 times out if 10 you should use the OS repositories to install packages/software. AKA the linux version of app stores.
You are doing it the old school windows way. That is to say you're going out to the internet and manually downloading software/Deb packages. If you're unsure of what your doing that way will likely end up with a broken system.
Let's start here, do you have an Intel, amd or Nvidia card? Mesa are the open source drivers for 3d graphics. So I imagine you were working on that when you left off.
Quite possibly but I think a much more skilled person would be doing that, unfortunately. Sounds like a PROJECT; interesting but more cash that I could apply to it. Thanks for the idea though.
I was using a Mac in 1986, so what you had was a different machine completely.
You can install the MacOS in a virtual machine on a Linux machine. Here's one link:

I have Windows 10, and I use Virtual Box so that I can run Windows XP and some old software I prefer.
Interesting idea; I will give a look. Thanks.
LOL I learned BASIC on a Commodore 64.
TI99/4A with speech module, extended basic cartridge and cassette storage. Spent hours typing in code from magazines expecting some amazing game only to be disappointed. lol Spent more time playing Tunnels of Doom, Parsec, Dig Dug, Bigfoot etc. Great games, but the programming aspect just didn't draw me in. Had more fun making the speech module say rude things.
Loved playing around with my buddy's Commodore 64 though. Peeking and Poking various addresses to cause weird sounds, video corruption, crashes etc.
Mine was a Timex-Sinclair, a similar US model after Timex got it. It was actually in the watch case at a department store. I also took some BASIC classes at the community college on TRS-80, can't remember which model, except it did have 5" floppy drives.
I got a lot out of the Radio Shack Color Computer. It was much more versatile than the IBM PCs. You could hook it up to a MIDI keyboard to play it, or to a shortwave radio to download and print out weather satellite photos and Wirephotos from news originators. With the PC, you had to buy a separate card for MIDI and another separate sound card to record from the radio.
My first PC compatible was a Tandy 3000NL in 1989. It was very useful, but only had a 20MB hard drive which cost over $700 extra.
I was forced into a white man bad course a few years ago. The cunt wanted us to role play in groups and pretend to be a whatever shitskin. I simply sat there and did not do it, the group asked me if i was going to do it and I said no. What a fucking waste of time.
She was telling a story about some shitskin immigrant who couldnt get an interview and how she told her to use a fake canadian name. She got an interview and was trying to use it as an example of racism or something. I got into an arguement with her telling her she was deceitful and a lier. I was going on about how I would have had her escorted from the building by security if they tried to pull that crap with me. I had her confused as I think I was probably the only one to bring her up as being a lier and deceitful.

Great news. Things are going our way.
