as far as i can tell it's going to be quite simple to turn off, at worst hitting up about:config

> The United States government already spends more money per capita on healthcare (without covering most of the population) than most other OECD countries

i'm not sure what your argument is here, considering that most OECD countries have better funded public health care systems and seem to be spending less

i'd extrapolate from that that a better funded system produces more efficient results, not that we should make the current system cheaper to justify providing better funding

next's os didn't become osx, they pinched a bunch of ideas out of it and slapped them on BSD

that's terrible reasoning, follow that to it's end and we should be writing everything in binary as only the best of the best would be able to manage it and therefore only perfect code would be produced. in actuality things like OOP and debuggers make it just as much easier for good programmers as bad, both are elevated and if the bottom tier are elevated from useless to usable then that's a price i'm willing to pay.

sure but there's a lot of shit that is fundamental to everything that we're so far removed from that it doesn't matter, i don't need to know how weather patterns are formed to know it's gonna be 10 degrees tomorrow

i've used the bluetooth drivers on windows and linux, they're both terrible, if you use the scpserver xinput wrapper on windows it's marginally better than the linux one

cool, name another controller that provides an open source driver, every single controller is only supported at all because someone (most likely unpaid) bothered to write one. there's no difference between a proprietary wired controller and a proprietary wireless controller. i know from experience the bluetooth driver for ps3 controllers is a pain in the arse.

from one of the other replies i got apparently newer routers can handle it since it was caused by a buggy or non-existant implementation of upnp alternate port requests on most routers

they both require the same forwarded ports

You think people understand NAT now? people will just buy ipv6 routers with pre-configured firewalls instead of ipv4 routers with pre-configured NATs and the world will go on exactly the same

you're ignoring gamers and people using skype or other direct message programs just to begin with, because of NAT you can't have 2 xboxes online on the same internet connection. NAT is a fucking cancer that needs to be cut out.

yeah, lock the screen and turn off the monitor, the screensaver is mostly just a waste of power

you run screensavers on your phone? you have an oled monitor?

what? no they're not, a google search points to zero articles even suggesting this is a thing

to be fair there's no real reason to run a screensaver in this day and age
