       @gamingonlinux welp. Time to call my district representative for the first time in my life. It ain't much, but it's what I can do.

       @neauoire that first arc from the x to the denominator x is unclear to me. Why does the y exponent become a negative 2 and what does that have to do with x^3?

       @neauoire right, so how do we know that y is 2 here? We raise it to the 2nd power in the first bit, but that's all the info we're given on it as far as I can tell.

       @neauoire "Variable exponents take the value of the symbol during application." y is translated into 2 here, no? So that must mean the value of y is 2. Where is y set to 2?I get the sense that I'm thinking about this the wrong way. Perhaps this diagram isn't meant to stand alone? Let me read up on rejoice more and come back to this.

       @neauoire ooooh, so you take the current exponent value of y when interpreting it as a variable exponent, but the value of y itself is irrelevant as it's just a symbol. I see!Super cool :D

       As I notice others performing their exodus from linux towards an untainted tech stack (and plan to do the same myself), I have to wonder...What about gaming? I enjoy the use of Steam to play games with my friends. Eventually (if it hasn't already), it will almost certainly fall to the slop.It puts me in a weird spot because interaction with those close to me will be gated by my interaction with this disgusting poisoned software. I don't have a good answer yet beyond "open the gate a little" by dual-booting a poisoned linux distro solely to play games that I can't run on Haiku/NetBSD/etc.
