It doesn’t even matter all that much in the case of the Democratic party. Any Democratic president would ultimately follow the platform of the party, and you can see that by the fact that Biden’s agenda has been a lot more progressive than most expected, but makes sense since the party has become more progressive in recent years.

It doesn’t apply as much with Trump because he’s a wannabe dictator and there’s a huge cult of personality behind him. He can do whatever he wants and the Republican party will follow, because they’ll be kicked out of the party if they protest in the slightest.

He needs to win so he gets that sweet, sweet presidential immunity for the countless crimes he has committed. Whether that fully protects him remains to be seen, but that’s clearly the goal.

Project 2025 may be the unofficial platform, although officially adopting it may be a step too far for even the Republican party. If only because of the optics of it, not because they don’t agree with all of it.

Certainly Trump has suggested cleaning house of “liberal” members of the public service so he can install his own cronies that will let him do whatever he wants, which is in line with Project 2025.

Pipewire has built in EQ support (no GUI, but useful once you’ve chosen your settings), and you can use EasyEffects for a GUI to experiment with.

Pipewire also supports complex multichannel impulse responses (including the same files that Hesuvi supports if you supply them). Both of these are a bit challenging to configure it should be said, but it’s nice they they are just effectively outputs you can connect to once they are setup, and don’t require a bunch of programs running at once.

Here’s the official example for virtual sound with “hesuvi”: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/blob/master/src/daemon/filter-chain/sink-virtual-surround-7.1-hesuvi.conf

I’ve had issues with relative paths in the past for the filenames, so try setting a full path if it doesn’t work.

And here’s an example for EQ (you can add more channels if you need them): https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/blob/master/src/daemon/filter-chain/sink-eq6.conf

You can also add a preamp if your EQ needs that which is just essentially a 0.0 freq, 0 Q filter and then you set the gain that you need. I didn’t need it as I’m not using external amps for any of my pipewire EQs.

One more thing I’ll add is that if you want the effect to also connect to a specific output (maybe your headphone EQ goes to one output, and your speaker EQ goes to a different one) you can set target.object=<your hardware output> in playback.props section. There’s an even better solution in wireplumber 0.5.X but I haven’t tried it yet and it might not be available on your system. Read this Collabora article if you’re interested.

Could be useful for PiKVM or equivalent.

It makes sense if you see their views as being about controlling women rather than being pro-life. The common thread of conservatism is removing agency and power from everyone but themselves.

Politically, you need to convince at least some of the “what about the economy/China” types. So economic and energy/manufacturing sovereignty arguments can be more convincing than “humanity is fucked if we don’t act quickly enough”. It’s stupid, but that’s democracy for you.

A Steam commenter claims this is the full list of missing content:

So presumably the main expansions stay.

Barrett being the sane one here is surprising. Although maybe it’s just token dissent, since they already have the majority without her.

Historically it meant amphetamines, but it can apply to both now. Street language isn’t exactly set in stone.

I’m now picturing this scene from Billy Madison, with Trump trying to answer a basic question about ethics in politics (although business ethics would apply just as well).

Note: Not actual Linux ports to be clear but I believe the original versions already ran fine, including their limitations.

It seems the DLC has already been delisted, so you won’t be able to buy that content now.

It’s unclear to me if the Ultimate Edition still includes some or all of the DLC, or if the current DLC delisting is just purchasing them individually. You can try parsing this FAQ from the devs: https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/30662484986387-Forza-Horizon-4-Delisting-FAQ

Yeah, I understand. It was more of a shout into the void type comment, then a criticism.

HEH, HEH, HEH!

Completely unneeded in Australia. The conservative oppositions’ nuclear plan is just a delay tactic so their fossil fuel buddies can burn coal for a bit longer (and creating a culture war is a nice bonus).

Abortions for some, a white ethnostate for others!

I had a quick look and found that yomitan supports Korean as well. This won’t help your reviews directly, but it will help with being able to quickly look up words when you’re trying to read something.

EDIT: And a dictionary to use with it.

Yeah, that’s annoying. You probably need some other resources to help things stick, but I can’t help you on Korean.

Using mnemonics of some kind can be helpful, even if it’s nonsensical (or perhaps especially if it’s nonsensical).

Monado is the only semi-viable thing at the moment, but it’s still really in the tinkerer phase. Annoyingly, much of the discussion about it is on discord.

EDIT: And Linux VR Adventures is the place to go for relatively simple instructions about how to set things up, and what is currently supported.
