Don't underestimate the legacy code. There's a reason we avoid it.

For games, I still pirate them for a couple of reasons, one of them being monetary. However, if the game is good, I buy the game afterwards to support the developers, and if it's bad, they won't see a dime from me. I might be a pirate, but I have honor.

The only complaint I have, and it's not really a problem with the OS itself, is that the Realtek driver is unstable at best, and will crash every five minutes.

I mean... it's a solution.

I heard the voice line as I was reading it. Excellent and memorable game series.

I'd rather wait until 2025 than having a Cyberpunk 2.0. I waited 10 years, I think I can handle 1 or 2 more.

I've had many problems with drivers for Nvidia and RealTek components, that absolutely refuse to work for more than a week straight. Across three distros and two different machines.

and more stuff works out of the box than after a Windows installation.

Except drivers, those seem to like to catch on fire, for some reason.

The problem is that in a flat plane with any amount of thickness, there will be always more mass diagonally than vertically, and it would still require a curve to evenly distribute the mass. I am by no means an expert on the matter, but from what I can recall, the only geometrical shape that allows for it is either a sphere or some complex hyperbolic curve, which is still not a plane.

If the disk had the thickness of Earth's diameter and through some black magic fuckery made it so that only the mass directly below you affected the force of gravity on you, then yes.

It's probably easier to make an FTL engine than to make any sense of flat earth theories.

Easy: murder everyone. Which will probably be the course of action this Skynet will take.

I think the Butlerian Jihad can't do shit against Judgment Day.
