This is actually a very good point.

I guess we are expecting this to be backdoored with biometrics later? I don't see how anyone can force this on Linux. I still prefer to have this in my OS above having every Random internet vendor collecting my biometrics and id docume

Does it matter as long as you can set whatever age you want?

by Neikius 6mo ago
Obviously it does not make sense to age verify root stuff. Also as root you can set whatever age you want to your accounts.

Agreed. Weirdly many people are against. This really seems like the best possible option. Actually helps parents as without this there is no way to enforce kid age. So instead of having it all per account and everything linked in most priva

Well lobbying is ok. Bribing is not. I guess we need to pay politicians enough. And have very very strict checks on their wealth. Maybe even only pick people with no families and don't allow them property. That would essentially elimin

I like kde's Kate. A bit more than notepad but not as crazy as notepad++. More like notepad 2

Janky but works. I started experiment with game scope I think is called. Interesting results upscaling some games. Fiddly though

This one is a real pain yes. Contributes a lot to bad battery life on laptops

Multiplayer online games work mostly fine. There is just a small fraction that is not.

You could run windows in the VM. Pcie passthrough is a thing just be careful with the Mobo.

There is like 20 online games that don't work... No need to give it all up if you switch

Well they are big enough to be called infrastructure now. Similar to payment providers. Them removing things essentially removes them from existence for 99 percent.

I am with you. But we are somehow a minority. Cannot decide weather we are oddballs or people just love to drink the Kool aid that much.

I am actually encouraged to try this now. Gotta check if they allow it. Sharp edges are really annoying on this machine. Luckily I use it like a desktop 95percent of the time.

I am suse user for 20+ years with a big break in between. To me it fits the best. Ubuntu I gave up on a while ago and came back to find things so much nicer. They have a slightly different take on immutable than redhat but it also works wel

After I replaced my last windows install a few years ago... Checking windows 11 on a friend's PC a few weeks ago was a nightmare. I considered myself a power user back in the day and I really struggled. So now I do have perspective fro

Iirc the firewall was already in XP. Maybe earlier but sp2 for sure. Default allows everything though but you could even set outbound blocking rules. Cumbersome UI and no really good visibility though.

Isn't bcachefs even younger and less polished than btrfs? It does show more promise as btrfs seems to have fundamental design issues... but still I wouldn't use that for my important data.

by Neikius 6mo ago
Not sure about the stats, but it does feel like there are fewer. So from what I know encryption and sending fs state had bugs in ZFS. And on btrfs anything above raid1 (5,6 etc) has had very serious bugs. Actually read an opinion somewhere

By GDPR this is illegal. But I assume no action will be forthcoming

Microsoft pretty much abandoned desktop as is. They are just squeezing out what is left. Their main cash now is azure and office365. And they expect it to be AI next. Kinda obvious by the where the effort goes.

by Neikius 6mo ago
Not true. No way to even play those games in Linux....

by Neikius 6mo ago
Your desktop is set to focus where mouse cursor is not where you click. Usually can be changed. Also in conjunction with that the game is set to freeze when it loses focus. So maybe you can change that in game.

I had great success in such cases by just overriding the compatibility tool used, most often to just some version of proton. Default sometimes just does not work.

I must assume the justification was "it is cool". especially considering they also placed capacitive touch "buttons" on the steering wheel. Those are the worst of both worlds in every case imaginable.

Yeah, Falcon rockets are a regular workhorse kinda rockets. Nothing special about them. NASA could have made their own but someone decided it needs to be outsourced. I mean they did a fine job there, but nothing to write home about IMHO. An

Sure, but the original Tesla car received exactly 0 Musk input. That was pretty much a done design when he bought the company. And ofc he ousted the original designers and tried to erase them from history. And the model 3 is pretty much bui

Specs and price of this are perfect, but I want AMD. Guess too picky? Anyone knows of a similar product with AMD CPU?
