I actually hide it and it also keeps working. If I remember correctly the notification contains a link with a short explanation and a hint how an experienced user can hide it. I just opted to not note it here, because it requires manual wor

Not my words but yes. Giving a corporation money encourages them to keep going that direction further. I would spend more money on Linux certified computers from (e.g. Lenovo, Dell, Purism, System76, Tuxedo...) which hopefully encourages th

Interesting! If Qualcomm means actually WiFI chips from Atheros this could mean good WiFi and good Linux drivers. Atheros has a good reputation, it is just Qualcomms ARM and GPUs drivers which are problem.

Using still a ThinkPad X220 with Linux and will switch likely this year to a X13 AMD Gen3. I personally prefer the X13 because it is solid, powerful and provide many connectors. I hope the next MediaTek WiFi-Chips are better this time, if n

This will come with a lot of problems and requires extra work. Apple Hardware is not intended by the manufacturer to be used as general purpose computer but to run MacOS.

Do I get that right, a denunciate app? I'm myself riding a road-bike and driving a car. Seeing an enemy in each other doesn't help! What is next? An app for car drivers to report road-bikers which ride on the road instead of a bad

No need for an ABI with open-source drivers because Linux and drivers shall be open source. What matters is the API and modifications to this can be maintained by upstream. If your hardware drivers aren't open source the promises of th

Yes! The usual corporate websites are worthless and don't present information. Every non-profit, club, or community provides a humble but clear website with the required information and menu! Look at that bloated visual rich websites

Host on premise? Or use Gitlab as service or - again - on premise. Outsourcing in general and literally "outsourcing" should be done for things you cannot do yourself properly (no competence, too much work, no feasible resources).

I've never seen any consistency MS-DOS, Win9x and WinNT. The worst offender is Microsoft itself with the file-browser, settings and office-suits. They don't maintain and evolve their toolkit, they just add new ones and recommend t

Actually not. The problem is, good stuff need enduring hard work. There is no justification of wasting resources, draining the battery and providing bad integration into the environment. It is like Flash: https://josephg.com&#x2F
