When I stated china is look for opportunities for themselves, I don’t imagine it’s anything good for us. Regardless of what Xi’s china decides, it won’t be good for democracy nor us.

You’re talking about the negative results, but the important point is who is attributed as causing them or the reason behind them. If there’s record inflation, I can imagine a situation where MAGAs believe it’s for a good reason, or because woke caused it or something. Remember, people died with covid, in complete disbelief of it because of conservative spin.

I’m hoping people wake up, but who knows how far we must fall before they do. Jan 6 and COVID I thought were those points. But here we are at depths unimaginable, and accelerating.

In regards to oligarchs, look how bad things are in other countries. Russia is an example where people have less rights, freedoms and money than us yet they aren’t rebelling. We can still reach that point sadly. I hope you’re right that people wake up and become angry way before they point.

Idk anymore. The maga handlers have complete control of the maga cult media machine. I could imagine this happening, and right media spinning up a lie that maga eats up. “Biden did this with the Democrats!” He encouraged a coup that was recorded, and people all but forgot about it.

I kinda doubt China wants to share things with the US. That and I doubt Putin wants the China to be stronger either. I think China would be cool not stepping in the way of the US and Russia so long as they see some opportunities for themselves.

What is a pen tester? I’m sorry to hear your problems and hope you get better soon

I have used proton DB to help me trouble shoot other games that were rated silver and above. I basically try to find reviews (using the filter search function) with my specs and see what input they have to offer (sometimes solutions to issues that are exactly like mine). If I don’t find anything, then I start looking up solutions from other peoples’ setups.

Sometimes, it could just be that your hardware isn’t strong enough for the game. Sadly I can’t offer anything more specific than that.

yeah, that’s the only positive aspect, there may actually be a reason for conservatives to push for defending ukraine and regaining their land.

The new Axis powers of Russia, China, North Korea and U.S.A against the European powers. 10 years ago that would seem ridiculous, now, not too far fetched.

Sounds good!

Bit of a vague post, but I suggest Trying any distro honestly. You can load it on a USB and use it directly off the USB, no commitments. I bit more of a commitment, dual boot a Linux OS. Very easy and allows access to Linux and windows.

I use Ubuntu and enjoy It a lot.mint is another good one I used to use.

I would also suggest figuring out what apps you need to see if they work on Linux, or if there are workable alternatives.
