Season 6 Episode 3 Attack of the Killer App is Still Amazing!
This episode aged soo well! Especially all the commentary about Apple, privacy, and internet culture. It's surprising how well all the jokes aged in spite of all the changes to technology and society since the episode released.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend immutable distros, as I think they limit our freedoms far too much, not that the way the general stack is going doesn't do that already. Not debating that here, since it's a hot and controversial topic currently, at least in the segment of the linux using population that cares about this stuff and which picked linux for that. Imo, if we do this, we'll basically make of the OS one block, from bootloader, to kernel, to initramfs, to display manager and finally desktop, especially since I'm hearing whispers of attempts at removing the tty kernel rendering being done, which will force us into using a specific compositor, desktop and so on, so we'll be exactly like windows or mac or android, so we lost everything, and then what's the point of linux?
If you want to use immutable distros anyway, I don't recommend silverblue for gaming, but I do recommend you give ublue linux a try, it has many drivers included, even some udev rules.
Ok, so I'm trial following @startrek and I'm getting a torrent(<a bit of hyperbole) posts in my home page. How do you people that follow hundreds/thousands handle this? Just ignore most of what flows down the page?
I've tried to be careful curating the people I follow, and it was fairly manageable til today. Trying to avoid setting up a lemmy acct, but StarTrek is only gonna get more active, and there's more to life than StarTrek :^O How to manage?
startrek.website is a partnership between /r/StarTrek and /r/DaystromInstitute from Reddit, they've both locked their subs over there for good. Follow @startrek for all your Trek needs. 🖖 :trek:
It’s from the early days of Greatest Gen, and references Captain DeSoto of the USS Hood (NCC-1703). DeSoto and the Hood made several appearances in TNG, and Ben and Adam leaned into his chill vibes, theorizing that the Hood would be a great place to work.
It’s also an allusion to the phrase Friend of Dorothy, an older euphemism for LGBT people.
I think it was originally jokingly conceived as a sort of passphrase or shibboleth for fans of the pod to identify each other without revealing their embarrassing enthusiasm to outsiders, e.g.
@AudraTran@linux_gaming what was that last thing? an image? if so, can you put alt text on it, I dk what it's supposed to mean. Also, it does work for me, as in, I was able to follow the group and post some comments on specific threads, though unfortunately they appear on the other side with no username, at least none I can see, maybe there's an avatar but it's not labeled
for those of you who are passionate about #linux#gaming, even if on the #computer or #SteamDeck, be that on #arch, #fedora, #ubuntu or something else, I recommend you subscribe to the lemi sub...what, reddit, thread? dedicated to this: @linux_gaming
Even if you don't make an account on lemi.world or another such instance, you can subscribe to the sub, by putting that handle in your search bar, or clicking it here if you're on mastodon, since lemi is a fediverse platform. I dk if the r/linuxgaming community will be going away soon, but given what's happening with reddit, maybe it won't shut down when the protests are over, if they ever will be, which I hope is not likely.
