Only ones who dissapointed me were Star Trek: Voyager actors. Its the only thing I got attached to as a kid.

Robert Beltran - Commander Chakotay

Roxann Dawson - B'Elanna Torres

Both transphobes and trump supporters who won't shut up about no one wanting to invite them to Star Trek stuff anymore.

I used to feel bad for Rob because he got such a shit treatment in ST:V in terms of writing and because his character fell victim to Jamake High water's grifting (look him up if you want to see why 90's native american characters kinda suck).

Seems he's just an asshole about being famous. Doesn't like being recognized in public.

TBH, I don't blame him. I'll take it over everyone else in this thread.

Behind on the lore.

What did Shaq do other than nearly every ad in the world? I can accept being a sell out for car insurance but anything egregious?

I think her dying trying is an important part of the point here.

I don't agree with it. I'm sure there's a more nuanced cause of death, but that's between step 2 and 3.

If I was depressed and the onion was already cut.

Yeah I'd eat it. Might eat it like that just to see.

Any idea what kinda cheese?

I think the problem you're running into is that Valve isn't doing nothing with that pay.

Like valve is actively making my gaming experience better by developing cheap hardware and a good system for gaming on Linux.

All the games I've ever bought, regardless of if they still sell them are in my library.

My save files are cloud synced for free.

I as the end user am having a good time.

I also have a sunk cost thing going on. I've been trying to buy and play more GOG games but I just have so much that works already on Linux without any work that it's hard to justify the tinker time to get it working otherwise.

They provide such a good service I think we've all forgotten about the children casinos for CSGO2 skins, but even that they're fixing (kinda).

Maybe its just nice to not be mad about something. Like its just video games, I don't really care if Valve has a monopoly on that since 1) Experience is good 2) they're not trying to have like a monopoly on water or something important. Bad take maybe, but there's enough going on that I just don't know if I could make myself care that valve is like 90% of videogame sales. Or whatever it is.

Its less upsetting and more baffeling

Like I'm not mad, usually confused and intrigued by the question.

Unless you're being a dick about it.

I knew a guy who had ADHD and sold his adderall for Cocaine and then "microdosed" cocaine through college.

I think he works in tech sales now

I'm personally allergic to doing anything to my distro other than installing games and VSCodium.

Its why I barely understand the X11 v Wayland discussion. I have no idea how to customize my Linux set up, if a troubleshooting step says "May bork computer if done wrong" I just reinstall the Distro or try another one. It takes like 5-10 minutes to install Linux on most modern computers

To me this is a feature of Linux. "It works on my distro" means I'm using that distro now!

I used to be a dual monitor guy on my gaming rig, but there were a few times I had issues with display (usually playing older games like Underlord)

So I just became a single monitor guy, but its a big monitor
