"Thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Hannah Arendt warned us that the point of this deluge is not to persuade, but to overwhelm and paralyze our capacity to act. More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media in response to these ridiculous claims actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action.
The result is a media environment that keeps us in a state of debilitating fear and anger, endlessly reacting to our oppressors instead of organizing against them."

Monster Hunter Wilds looks unplayable on Steam Deck but good on Desktop Linux
Seems like Monster Hunter Wilds may be just too much for the little Steam Deck, after testing out the newly released Monster Hunter Wilds benchmark mode. But Desktop Linux is looking good.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
@richdevine I might be taking out of my unqualified arse here, but I suspect a large part of it has to do with the recent move away from fixed or heavily pre-baked environments where much of the load could be pre calculated anf shared between tiers, to more real time calculations like global illumination or grass physics.
Granted Wild's performance to be suffering terrible in PB1, I have to check PB2 though.
