That's why regulation is needed. Efficient corporations will (and must) do the most profitable and legal thing always. What would the economy look like if corporations behaved irrationally, by doing unprofitable things based on unpredi

If Linux starts attracting commercial development and we see an influx of new apps, wouldn't you feel safe knowing that the ones you install as flatpaks aren't allowed to capture packets on your system? Wireshark is a tool more in

I use Sublime Text, but I’ve also used VSCode, as well as a lot of other similar editors. I haven’t had a reason to use IntelliJ, but I’m sure it would work the same way. Using development tools as a flatpak is usually not a good idea for m

I haven’t, but I’m assuming those were (possibly old) Linux native games? Since proton shouldn’t have any dependency issues, especially since Steam installs that itself.

I switched to Fedora Kinoite (KDE spin of Silverblue) to force me to go all in on Flatpaks, and now I love them. They make so much sense and work so well. I feel like the people who dislike them either never actually used them, or they’re j

All I care about is hiding/obfuscating my personal information. I just don’t like the idea of giving that away for free, even if it’s actually harmless. I don’t care if I get wrongly labeled/categorized due to this. It’s not like

I use adnauseam ( https://adnauseam.io/ ), which is built on top of ublock origin, and it works pretty well. The generic nuclear option to hide terrible web design, bypass (some) paywalls, and improve performance 1000x is to

Whenever I have to (re)install/setup Windows on a family member's machine, it's a miserable experience. The only silver lining is the petty satisfaction I get from watching Edge and Bing pathetically beg me to not install Chr

Fuck Google and their internet monopoly, but I have to give it to them for not doing shit like this. If I had to pick a tech giant to run the internet, I'd rather have Google than Microsoft. ...although, fuck Google still (and the rest

I think it's interesting to see what the planning side of a AAA live service game looks like...even if it's just a few screenshots in a tweet.

This is Microsoft. Their goal is to build up as much monopoly power as possible, so even if this is hugely unprofitable, you can bet your ass that they’ll keep burning money on it until they kill Google or Google kills Bing.

This is a cool idea, but it doesn't work very well right now. Based on the responses I got, it feels like I'm talking to one of those shitty virtual assistant chat bot things that just spit out canned responses. Basically, it aske

Yeah but that’s only used for creating the unique domain, and it wouldn’t affect user domains. So if that one goes down, they’ll just have throw the registration page up on a new domain.

There’s already a de-Microsofted fork called VSCodium. Most people would probably migrate there, and development will proceed independently.
