Your comment proves you fundamentally do not understand how societal expectations and rejection affect people psychologically. If half the world was constantly trying to make your life hell, I bet your mental health wouldn’t be the best either.

It is far too common to point at depression or anxiety as the problem instead of a symptom of the actual problem.
But making that distinction would require critical thinking, a skill that, for someone calling other people “brainwashed idiots”, seems to be sorely lacking…

I see. Either way there are some substantial improvements over fsync in some cases, so it should benefit Proton as well.

I don’t think Proton has anything special going on in that regard actually. It’s got DXVK and all the other stuff built-in, but for the synchronization primitives I think it just uses fsync just like Wine does, so this might be interesting…

American culture is one of the few I’ve found to be actively “anti-knowledge”. It’s not just their educational system being bad, it’s a genuine cultural tendency of not just dismissing experts, but straight out refusing to learn and snobbing those who do.

Every time I see someone write “sorry for my bad english” their writing is several times better than many of the native speakers I interact with on a daily basis.

I have no way of verifying this is real, but I wholeheartedly believe it.

To be fair, it’d definitely be justified…

No it just makes me even more frustrated. The amount of incompetence and neglect I see and have to deal with on a daily basis, even with software developed by multi-million dollar corporations, is astonishing.

Why is modern webdev such a clusterfuck? Why does VisualStudio take multiple seconds to open an empty project? Why does Nvidia’s control panel have multiple seconds long pauses to switch between settings categories or loading lists? Why does this game run like garbage on a 4090 when it has mostly static environments and the graphics aren’t even that good?

I could go on but I’d be here all day. All of those things, with the exception of webdev (because god there’s so much shit in there…), could be easily fixed* or should’ve never gotten that bad in the first place.

*Provided the entire architecture isn’t garbage, otherwise see the rest of the sentence…
