Probably just PackageKit

Tau ,

I know that. That’s why I said that.

I meant that they are not going to use any specific package manager, just PackageKit

I can be friends with a social network if I know my admin and I’m in a small instance. That’s the power of federation.

Passkeys might really kill passwords (www.theverge.com)

Passkeys: how do they work? No, like, seriously. It’s clear that the industry is increasingly betting on passkeys as a replacement for passwords, a way to use the internet that is both more secure and more user-friendly. But for all that upside, it’s not always clear how we, the normal human users, are supposed to use...

Tau ,

Browsers can save them and extensions like, KeepassXC, can behave like a passkey provider

Tau ,

Also, that won’t help if you’re logging into a game or app, surely?

MicroG has added support for passkeys already

Tau ,

There are also app stores like F-Droid for Android to install Open Source apps, those are not in for the money, but for freedom, to make something nice for all

The use local models for Firefox Translations so I would expect they would do something similar

The problem is that nvidia’s drivers are shit but we couldn’t do anything because for the longest time, for nvidia cards to work at a decent speed, it requires the drivers to be signed by nvidia.

We couldn’t do anything and you are blaming us for that.

Now that this, AFAIK, has been lifted new things like NVK are emerging.

The problem has been reluctance abd uncooperativeness from nvidia, not the linux community

He could play minecraft with his friends on a personal server. I think making servers is easy on Minecraft Bedrock (The minecraft version available on Xbox)

Tau ,

I like to use qutebrowser for web browsimg, it allows to browse the web without leaving the keyboard

Tau ,

Get a physical copy that doesn’t require internet activation then

I cannot speak about movies. But physical games now are also just “usage licenses”, they are encrypted and if the console is connected to the internet at any momento, your rights to play the game may be revoked (just like digital games or, in this case, digital TV series)

Tau ,

Seems like a cool idea but it would be good if it was opt-in and done by not-google

Why does Gboard replace spaces with characters I add between words?

For example, if I type out a sentence and decide I want to add asterisks around a word for emphasis, why does Gboard replace the space between the previous word and the emphasized word instead of just adding the new character? Is this added functionality for something I just don’t understand?...

Tau ,

I’m reading the comments and in all seriousness… is this true?

Tau ,

The only thing to boycott are GNOME dev’s mentality when it comes to things outside their DE (especially Wayland protocol adoption). It’s slowing Wayland development a lot

Tau ,

You can delete your account(s) clicking on “accounts in this Account Center” btw

Tau ,

It said “Delete” but Meta could very well be lying to me

Tau ,

It helps for when you have a variable that’s for numbers and you use it as a string or something else, it shouts an error. In other words, it protects you from yourself

Tau ,

That’s what WASM is for, but it’s not there yet :(

And you still have to use js for hooks and stuff

Tau ,

Probably because you have a dynamic IP so it shows torrents from other people.

The IP location in my experience is always very incorrect

Tau ,

I guess MacBooks are easier to deploy

Tau ,

I was talking specifically about MacOS X vs. everything else because, for example, you don’t have to setup the bios. Just hand out a macbook for everyone and (mostly) deployment compñete, i guess

Tau ,

I would never agree with what Google proposes, though

Tau ,

Do not listen to that message box, it’s a message box from bowser. Do not listen to him!

Tau ,

Using Last.fm for recommendations and buying the albums from bancamp (yes, I’m aware of the recent news about bandcamp, I’m very worried but depending on what happens a new platform may emerge like bandcamp, who knows) or just… pirating it

Tau ,

Has anyone done that?

Bethesda when it deprecated it’s launcher

Tau ,

Because if you are using Stremio (without Debris) sometimes you have to wait a long time for it to download the torrent and sometimes it doesn’t even load. I use Stremio when I want to watch the first episode of something and if I decide I want to watch the rest I add it trough Sonarr

Godot be like

Tau ,

But he can’t see red because everything is red for him

Tau ,

Transmission as a server is very good and lightweight, specially if you pair it with something like Flood and the *arr apps

Tau ,

The steam runtime runs ubuntu anyway, so don’t worry

Tau ,

Every bit is appreciated among pirates

Tau ,

At least gamedevs can generate keys and sell them on other sites to get a bigger cut

Tau ,

Yes, but his way you get the advantages of having it on Steam while bypassing the 30% cut of Valve.

My point was that, while Valve does take a big cut, it doesn’t stop gamedevs from bypassing it

Tau ,

Some people hace difficulty picking on sarcasm, specially on the internet. That’s why you should use “/s” even if it may sound obvious to you

Tau ,

Please, diagnose your kid even if you think he doesn’t have ADHD
