Weak unprepared politicians like that is an open invitation for China to do what it wants and dare us to do something about it. If Kackles was president, China likely would have already taken that country. China isn't stupid. It is powerful but not as strong as the US. They know that any fafo event would greatly harm them IF the US backed their policies. A weak president won't and that is a problem. As much as many don't like Trump, he is likely one of if not the only one preventing this shit from happening. Iran FAFO when they kept on enriching uranium. They thought Trump was just like Biden and weak. They found out. Even if we can't stop them from creating the bomb, we need to make it as costly and lenghty as humanly possible. Make them pay for it at every step. They didn't learn and now the news is stating Trump is sending a lot of ships over there. Countries like this will just poke and prod all day pushing their agenda until they can't. A process they hope will weaken the resolve of the free world. (currently the US as the EU went left and England went the way of comunist. Preventing simple comments from beng said without going and doing hard jail time. Anyone gets offended the offender goes to jail, except those that are immagrants. Citizens that pay the taxes and provide the resources are restricted. Communist country it is now)

And you would be correct, sir! Seriously, very few if any actually learn about the subject they are passionate about. Then they get mad when facts get in the way of their "cause".

I still have a computer (for gaming). The rest is Linux with one being chromebook. (2 linux systems, one Windows 11 and one chromebook) I currrnelty have them all setup on my desk now. I have a single mouse that I can swtich over(with backkup mice to use if it fails) The keyboards slide under or in front (in the case of the gaming machine) I haven't found a decent keyboard that can run all three the way I want it to. My printer can be used from Linux, windows and chromebook. Scan with two of those machines (haven't downloaded or installed the linux brother drivers yet. this is just using native Linux programs etc. Also ther eare some isseus with my VPN so that it blocks things. P.S God bless GOG!

Better not be looking!

I've heard good things about Zorin. Haven't used it myself. Mint is still good for noobs. However, someone that has had some miles under their keyboard in regards to Linux might want to move over to Zorin. IMO. At least it is better than Unbuntu. On a different subject. I had a problem with my VPN. It was leaking all of a sudden. After the most recent Mint update or Nord update not sure which is the problem. Seriously? I tried it with another disto and it worked properly. The fact that something can fail even when turned on in Linux is very concerning. I've decided ot go down the rabit hole of learning DNS settings and firewall ports and settings so as to manually setup connections. It is something I need to do in order to setup some complex task I want to do in the future. (having differnt net connections, VPNs, etc.) Lots of good stuff! lol.

I'ts getting better and better as time goes on. Soon the common person won't need Windows at all

If you install Windows on a VM and pass through Nvidia it will be good. If you think you will do that it would be good to keep thte nvidia.

Yes, I also agree that it is a bit more than I would want to pay for Fallout 4 especially since I have it already but with all the updates and Bugthesta breaking the game constantly it is just easier to have a DRM free option. It uses the 163 version which is pre-fuckup update version. Or so I was told. So it should work well with many of the older games. If you wait you likely will have to wait 3 to 8 more years before it gets that low. Its a valid choice to wait. If that is truely what you want. HOwever, there are many other games there to check on. Some very old part of their GOG games where they updated it for newer operating systems etc so that you can still enjoy it. Other older Fallout games that are well below 10 dollars as well.
