To be honest, countries don’t have right to exists countries don’t have rights. Rights are inneherently for humans. It’s a stupid notion, countries are established by violence and their borders are enforced through violence, it means that Israel or any country has the right to use violence against those whom they judge to threaten their existence. And that includes the population of said country, if the people of country A decides one day to become country B, they can’t because country A has a right to exist but not the none-existing country B.

This is not accurate, we have coal power in Sweden as well, but not at large scale, also they try to cover it as burning olive seeds, but that is just some percent of the coal they are burning.

EDIT: seems like they closed the last coal powerplant in 2020.

Look at my other comment, and stop saying that I like windows I don’t. But i live in reality unlike you

I don’t know how to tell you, but these benchmarks doesn’t say anything if there’s not any technical discussion. Sometimes yes games run better on linux, and the reasons are not that linux is faster. It has to do with mainly two reasons, dx10 or dx11 might cause bottleneck that is resolved by the translation layer in vk3d, for games that have that issue. Second all the features of dx is not supported, you might think that the game looks ok in linux while it looks and feels different on windows. You might have shadows or lightning that is rendered differently, you put your graphics settings on ultra and on windows that might include hdr and linux it doesn’t exist. So of course the games run faster if it doesn’t have to do the same work. The game literally runs through a translation layer, it’s not fucking magic.

You think a youtube video or some fucking idiot at Forbes is going to convince me.

This is a benchmark that you can trust. https://www.phoronix.com/review/nvidia2022-windows11-linux

What did I get, random blog with the most basic Comparison? The title of the blog is which OS is the best, yeah I expect a lot of high level Quality from an article like that.

Where talking about gaming on the os, not the os itself.

You send some shit article, like wtf is that all you have?

Yes I have a hard time finding benchmarks where the game runs faster on linux, are you going to find some blog post again?

I’m not a windows user, I would be considered more of a power user, because I use it professionally and at home, both handling servers and software development. Don’t get me wrong I hate windows user interface more then anything. But I’m not in denial, windows kernel is a very good kernel for gaming, it has a lot of features that doesn’t exist yet. Where do you think the kernel devs for linux take their inspiration from, my god they are adding stuff like windows NT thread primitives to the linux kernel.

First of all, you’re just making up stuff, you have no idea what the code base of the Microsoft kernel looks like. Second, who do you think develops the linux kernel, a lot of them are Microsoft engineers, most linux kernel devs nowadays are hired by big tech companies, because they all have a stake in linux, it’s one of the main reasons why linux is evolving so rapidly.

Third looking from the outside the Microsoft kernel is pretty amazing for what it does, backwards compatible, you can still run windows 98 software on windows 11, it’s fast and efficient, you have yet to prove that it’s slower than linux.

Bro no large or medium sized government entities are using anything else, even if they do, it’s for a little while and then they go back. You know why? Microsoft office, exchange, outlook, there is no other good alternative, good lucking telling their employees that they are going to learn libre office and linux. They can’t even handle windows properly.

Most if them have already spent years building their infrastructure around windows and Microsoft office suite, and they are not changing anytime soon.

The bloatware is not the point!! I am talking about the kernel!

Show me the benchmarks, stop changing topic.

Bloat is in the form av pre installed software and services that can be turned of, Windows is not slow or resource hungry.

You’re the one contradicting yourself when you’re saying that linux requires a Translation layer. And the translations are not always 1:1. Please show me the benchmarks.

How is it a contradiction, theres bloat software installed on windows, which can be disabled? Ubuntu to me is also bloated but that doesn’t mean that the OS is slow.

Yes they can be disabled, do you think governmental entities would run windows without being able to disable a lot of the features?

I understand what you’re saying, but that doesn’t have to be true. Many of the games are made to be run on windows, windows is still a effecient os, it’s just a lot of bloat, which can be disabled. Also a lot of optimizations in nt has been done for gaming, features which are missing in the linux kernel, but there are RFCs to add nt like synchronization primitives, in the linux kernel.

I don’t know, I think it’s still possible for Ukrainain military to release videos, but cut the ISIS style music videos and the horrible way of killing a person. To me personally, it gives the essence of seeing human life as being nothing more than sick joke. That’s probably how Russians can do horrible things to Ukrainains or other people, and I don’t think dehumanizing human beings is healthy for anyone or any society. And I do have a higher standard for our allies, to not become the evil they’re fighting.

I think I agree to some extent, but I also think that we’re entering the territory of human psychology. Stuff like this can have the reverse effect, we can look at the effect of ISIS and their gore/snuff video campaigns which made the whole world turn against them, and had a moral bolstering effect of the opposition. Sure in the beginning people were afraid of ISIS, but then it transformed into another feeling, a feeling of revenge/justice for the murdered.

I just want to say, this isn’t random Ukrainian editing this, the camera is on the drone, it’s obviously military propaganda. The Russians do the same, so I’m not calling out Ukraine in anyway.

Yeah, I guess that is true. But somehow I feel more disgusted by music being added to to it, and I guess it’s a turn off for a lot people to see death celebrated in this manner. This soldier was just born on the wrong side, he’s a victim of his circumstances.

I don’t understand people watching or sharing gore/snuff videos.

Never heard of it, awesome that kde is making video editing software, definitely will try it when I need to edit a video next time!

You know that Japan has crime? You know that large crime orgs operate in Japan? Everything from drug trafficking, sex trafficking, extortion, protection rackets, arms smuggling is happening.
