On first glance, sure; seems funny.
But the reality is: this is crass and tasteless, coming from a .gov acct.
Then you think about the fact that, due to the shutdown...millions of families and individuals on SNAP are not going to have a thanksgiving, and may actually be without food on that day.

MMMMMM. Home made hot chocolate. In my "Assholes on Parade" mug.
Pretty good. We make it with the slightly bitter darker chocolate, milk and heavy cream. Family recipe. Perfected over the years. Usually I just make a pan for me and the fam. But today, with the weather, we did a full crock pot.

Updated my system to the latest Bazzite/Fedora 43 and KDE Plasma 6.5.1.
The real test of any Linux system geared toward users/daily drivers is how clean and simple the update process is.
Bazzite just passed this one with flying colors.
The only hiccup? Had to reinstall/update my weather widget.

Biggest issue on Nexus these days:
* See a promising new follower mod to add.
* Says it's "custom voiced"
* Looks awesome.
* Then I see it. "Voiced by AI".
The catch phrase to use here is:

There's that, and then you get into the conversation of "Why not give an app a simpler UI for common tasks that you can toggle. This works very well for open projects"
"Oh yeah? Like what? God Users are dumb!"

There's an old bash.org quote that covered this situation back in the day.
I am still all for this idea to be honest, as interfering with natural selection has definitely led to people like Musk.

Yep.
The community is already honked off. The Fallout 4 mod community is still sorta recovering from the NG update...and now, a new patch, full of unknowns and throw in a whole SLEW of CC content that will auto dl for most people and...it's going to be a mess for at least 18 months after release.

Okay. So. I am pretty sure @katerade.posts.fyi is currently plotting my murder today. So, if you find me in a dumpster, or you see a suspiciously bloodied woodchipper...know that it was her.
It may have been because of this on Discord. But who can say?

Point & Counterpoint.
I am sick to death of listening to armchair Dems talk in terms of peaceful protest & sit ins. We're past that. I think we all know it too.
We're not even a FULL year into this, and these people think we're just one round of Kumbaya away getting these thugs to stand down.

On the topic of Bethesda alone. From a business standpoint, this tells a sad sad sad story.
Skyrim was (and arguably still is) their peak. It's like they put everything into it, and then...just slowly started not doing that anymore.

If anything, the fact that I am running an intense mod load for Skyrim, under Bazzite Linux...and it honestly is a bit faster than it was under windows...should be all you need to know about whether or not Linux is ready as a windows replacement.
