Superhero media has been trendy for a while now, and now there's a real life leader and real life fight for liberty against a supervillain. It's quite uncanny, but among all this senseless massacre I find there is something immens

I've been following the development of this war closely on Reddit and Twitter, and even if it's clear there's a ton of Western and Ukrainian propaganda, I wholeheartedly welcome it. The more it seems Ukraine is doing well, th

Interesting premise for an article, then it just ends without going further into the topic. Meh.

That and possibly the Western intelligence/military has been training and providing hardware to the Ukrainians to set up redundancy in their network. The threat of invasion has been there since 2014. Which made me wonder whether an ope

It is not rare that I buy a game at full price, and it's on sale within a week from my purchase. In fact Valve has recently decided to shorten the big sales cycle to one every 28 days (plus the small weekly flash sales).

You probably open it pretty infrequently (or you're on the beta branch), because I open it daily and updates happen once a month if ever. It'd be the same if you were to open Chrome once a month and it wasn't autoupdating its

They don't need dark patterns, they're already making a boatload of money indeed. If the trend continues, that means more paid consultants working on open source Linux desktop libraries [1]. Win-win in my book. It actually feels g

So am I. Using Linux on every device you own doesn't automatically qualify and make any statement you utter a truth. I've already replied in the other comment why your opinion spread FUD (especially from a self-described "pro

Ah because of a bug in an app (or it's packaging), the whole flatpak ecosystem is corrupt and causes data loss? How is that different that someone mistakingly causing an rm -rf /home in an RPM post-install script? Try again.

It's trolling of the "everything new in Linux is crap" type, just check their post history. Random data loss because one uses Flatpak, seriously?

Only Terraform uses a one-off poorly specified DSL. Pulumi is based on real programming languages. The criticism might be that their libraries/API is poorly specified. But the languages it's based upon are standard with all the to

Yes, let's make more substances illegal. It has worked really well in the past. I understand not liking coffee, but calling for it to be illegal because _you_ don't like it is utter nonsense.
