I mean I've been to plenty of countries that use facial recognition software to confirm your identity while going through customs. Is this really so different?

Pretty normal thing for a national tournament.

5th place in the NCAA national championship? Yeah that's still quite an accomplishment. It is impressive.

I agree 100%, placing 5th in the division 1 NCAA championships for your main event is still something I think most people would be willing to admit is very impressive. It's something well above and beyond what most people accomplish. To act like she is a failure as an athlete because of it is honestly kinda sad. Why diminish the accomplishment of another woman like that?

I mean placing 5th in the division 1 NCAA championship is pretty damn impressive...

I mean getting 5th place in the division 1 NCAA national championship is actually very impressive. People acting like she was a bad athlete because she got 5th place is crazy.

I'm just pointing out that not everyone thrives in a WFH environment and I think it shouldn't be a controversial take to admit that.

I work in an industry that doesn't sleep, that doesn't mean I'm putting in more than 40 hours a week on a regular basis. But we need someone to be on-call over the weekends in case there is an emergency. And when I do, my boss lets us take additional time off later in the week to make up for it. You guys are making crazy assumptions based off nothing.

That works great if you have the space to do so. I live in a very small home by myself and I really don't have that kind of space around.

Its not a uniquely "me" problem, I've talked to plenty of other people who feel the same way as I do. I'm not talking about putting in extra time when I'm not supposed to be at work. I'm just talking about how it "feels" to constantly by in your workplace like that. I personally think it kinda sucks. I'm sure other people can deal with it fine, but I live in a small house where I don't really have a separate room like a basement office or something I can dedicate to being my workspace. I might feel differently about it if I had the space.

Also, I work in an industry that requires 24/7 coverage, we keep the Internet service running for hundreds of thousands of customers and businesses. I very very rarely put in more than 40 hours a week, but there are times where I need to be on call over the weekend in case there is an emergency. And when I do, I take time off later in the week to make up for it.

Benchmarks are readily available, I have a 5080. Some DX11 and older games do run slightly better on Linux. But a lot of them don't. And pretty much 100% across the board DX12 games run 10-30% slower on Linux compared to Windows. Nvidia has even acknowledged the issue and claims to be working on a solution.
