Unfortunately the biggest problem with Framework is that that don't ship worldwide. I've been waiting for four years to buy their machines now and I'm getting tired of it. Normally I'd just buy a ThinkPad, but Lenovo sti

Great, but what does it mean for non-LLM applications, like say, gaming or general desktop usage?

The sentiment still stands. I can't fault distros from wanting to theme their distro to match their branding. Like, Ubuntu wouldn't be Ubuntu without their signature orange and aubergine colors, Mint and openSUSE have their greens

It's no secret that the GNOME/GTK guys _hate_ theming. So much so, that made an entire website for it: https://stopthemingmy.app/

Security fixes. Which is especially important considering that you're running Windows programs.

This is fine, but all I want is the Windows XP dog back.

Rust, with immediate mode, with minimal build and runtime dependencies (no bloated stuff like Electron / GTK / Qt please). A builder for egui[1] would be awesome. [1] https://github.com/emilk/egui

This is a terrible, terrible article. - First of all, it's from 2020. Pretty much _every_ filesystem driver/progs has had several performance-related updates since then, so these results are completely irrelevant today. - ReiserFS

You're mistaken, anti-cheat (some of them) do work on Linux[1], such as Easy AntiCheat, BattlEye, nProtect GameGuard etc. But not every game using these will work, since some of them require the developer to enable Linux support - wh

Surprised there's no Linux and open source communities. :(

This is the first I'm hearing of turmeric and green tea being hepatotoxic. Unfortunately, the study states “the daily dose of an HDS product consumed by an individual patient was not recorded or available for analysis.” Does anyone kno

Why are you posting this only now? This is two weeks old news, and the issue in question was already resolved a week ago. https://slashdot.org/story/438309

sd is dead, last release was an year ago, last commit was 9 months ago. Dev is inactive and hasn't made any plans to add maintainers, handover, or archive the project. I would recommend sad[1] instead. It's also written in Rust, s

I concur. Personally, I'd love to see all the Linux Rust effort being redirected at Redox OS. If the Asahi team focused their efforts on Redox, with all the genius talent they they have, we could see an actually practical, usable imple

A simple, idiot-proof app to install Linux from Windows, aimed at newbies. So when people complain that Linux is too hard to install, I can just point them to the .exe. The app will be a simple installation wizard, maybe using the Nullsoft

As a ThinkPad Z13 user, I've had none of the issues you've described. I've been running Linux (Fedora + Arch) on it for three years now and it's been a first-class experience. Everything worked out-of-the-box, with liter

As a ThinkPad user, I disagree. I've been using Linux (Fedora + Arch) on my Z13 Gen 1 for three years now and it's been a first-class experience. Everything worked out-of-the-box, with literally zero issues. I can't think of

Looks like they still haven't fixed the bug where fastfetch is glitchy if you have it in your startup profile... :(

> Linux doesn't come close. > Ubuntu 24.04 I'm sorry, but Ubuntu isn't representative of Linux, hasn't been for a long, long time, so it's a pretty poor choice as an example. Any seasoned Linux veteran would t

Why single out GNOME? There are also KDE images, and of course, plenty of other DEs and WMs in the repos which you can always install.

It should be noted that the crowdfunding campaign doesn't even exist (yet), and even if it did, I highly doubt their ability to deliver - especially a device with 32GB RAM. Even Canonical promised a similarly high-end phone back in t

Another reason to consider staying away from bcachefs (at least for the time being): major on-disk format changes, like the latest one that's going to be part of 6.14. Kent does promise that "this is planned to be the last big on

Agreed, in fact this is a pretty disappointing development - Chromium doesn't need any more support when it's already the overwhelming majority. I wish they picked non-Chromium based browser instead, such as Servo or Ladybird.

Sounds like a bad unit to me. Haven't had any such issues on mine, been running Fedora and Arch over the past couple of years.

Hacki is nice, but like most (all?) HN clients, it lacks a way to filter posts based on topic. Actually, now I wonder if there's even any client out there that offers topic-based categorisation and filtering, preferably LLM backed.

When I said success, I didn't say that in terms of technology or market share, I meant it in terms of normies being able to adapt to a different OS without having to undergo training. The fact that normies were able to simply pick up a

The point OP was trying to make is that for most people, they don't need to learn anything new - If all they're going to be doing is fire up Chrome and go to Facebook or whatever, then the OS doesn't really matter to them.
