Long time Raspberry Pi user here, the only software I can’t load natively is Steam. What software are you having problem with on the M1?

Knowing r/conservative, Disney was probably talking about hiring someone to play Tina Turner in a biopic, or something like that.

I literally use GIMP every day at my job. It’s a very powerful application that makes my life easier.

Sasauge, Eggs, Homefries, Biscuit, and two OJs.

Admittedly, I bought an Nvidia card for AI. I am part of the problem.

There will be some growing pains, but the x86 compatibility layers are getting surprisingly good. Personally, other than Steam, I don’t have any software this is incompatible with ARM.

After enjoying the very local power of Ollama it seems weird to give OpenAI any money.

People complain now, but they’ll renew their subscription. It’s the same unhealthy relationship people have with Windows.

This is actually an excellent comparison. I don’t own a car, and I advocate for the car free lifestyle. I also don’t recommend people using Adobe if possible.

@art@lemmy.world avatar

I use these tools everyday. Yes there are limitations, but for what MOST people need there are solutions. It just depends on what is important to you. Also, you can use the ellipse assistant.

I use all 3 for professional work. Might not be good for your job but it’s been great for mine.

@art@lemmy.world avatar

This also matches my comparison.

Maybe someone who makes the GIMP uses photoshop. I actively don’t, and I recommend that others stop using it.
Maybe someone who delivers my food uses petroleum. I actively don’t, and I recommend that others stop using it.

All these elements influence my decisions. If you want to continue promoting Adobe and Big Oil, that’s on you.

My desktop was given to me by my job. My laptop, I rode a bicycle to my friends house and paid him cash. What does that have to do with my promotion of being Adobe free?

Like, literally no one is stopping you from using Adobe stuff. No need to be salty, you do you. ✌

No, but you can disable Adobe Acrobat Document Cloud services.

Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, again (www.engadget.com)

Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year’s $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan...

Linux Is Only Free if You Don’t Value Your Time

This one is my favorite.

My co-workers SSD failed, and he was out most of the day. My SSD failed, and I was back up and running in about 10 minutes.

Boot to USB drive and load documents from backup. After my shift is over, I restore or replace the bad drive.

How easy is it to switch back to windows?

I’m considering switching to linux but I’m not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or “cleaner” debloated versions.

If you want to test out Linux, try running a virtual machine instead. There are a few good free software programs to do this. VirtualBox used to be a good option. It’s a free and harmless way to dive into Linux.

We’re also using machine learning for the local site translation. The AI buzzword is doing more damage than good PR.

future firmware updates are expected to include encryption features

Just use GnuPG. SMH

I recommend the flatpak version. It’s still a little buggy as an app, and it’s missing a few features, but it’ll be rad when it’s done.

Banning websites in the year 2024 is never going to work. The average user is more savvy than the average lawmaker.

IDK is the average TikTok user really installing VPN software on it’s phone?

Yes. From the article a, 2500% spike in VPN usage.

TikTok is not a platform for political discussion

Yet, despite that, it’s working as one. Effectively.

No mention of license in this article. Are they going to be releasing it through a git of some kind?

BYD has been making buses and work trucks for the US market for years. I’ve only had a ride on a few BYD buses, but they seem to be quality.

@art@lemmy.world avatar

Just want to remind people that BYD has been in the American market since 2011. They’ve been involved with building industrial vehicles like trucks and buses.

There was this idea that instead of having the web powered by large data companies like Google and Meta you could keep all your information in the blockchain. It was an attempt to “take back control”.

However, most of the proponents kinda forgot that the web is already decentralized and only portions are controlled by Meta and Google.

Then, of course, we had the grifters come in.

The whole thing was built on a misunderstanding of how the web actually works.

I create content that goes into YouTube. I generate a tiny bit of revenue from that. I have no say into how YouTube treats my viewers. If you watch the ads, awesome, I get some money. If not, I’m just glad you watched the video.

The majority of content on the platform is made up of channels my size and smaller. Most of us are getting paid pennies.

But YouTube doesn’t care about us. They want to appease the larger studios.

Turns out the judge on his 2020 conviction was caught doing some questionable shit.

He’s still going to be serving time for the 2022 conviction.

It ain’t like it used to be. Just upgraded my machine to an Nvidia for the first time in like 10+ years.


<span style="color:#323232;">sudo apt install nvidia

After a reboot it was smooth as hell. I remember the dark ages. I remember fucking with X.org settings. 😐

It’s bloat if it slows me down and brings me zero benefit. I have a few extra packages on my system, but it’s still snappy. That’s not bloat to me.

We need to abolish the death penalty in this country. This simply should not be a thing we do.

[SOLVED!] On an Android phone is there an open source method of compressing files?

I have to submit a document for employment and they want my passport but my passport photo is 5.49 MB and they say you can’t upload anything more than 5 MB. How can I shrink that file on my android phone without paying some service?

Depending on your phone you might have an image resizer built into your photo gallery. Having said that, there’s always imagemagick.

It’s not that Windows is easier. It’s that you’re more familiar with Windows.

art ,
@art@lemmy.world avatar

Your experience here is what I mean. You have used Windows a lot, so you understand how it all works. I don’t.

I struggled to find drivers for obscure hardware under Windows. If there are no modules, no git repo, it can be confusing where to get them. I found a bunch of sketchy looking websites that claimed they had the drivers, but no obvious way to safely install them. I still don’t know the proper way to do it.

I am familiar with Linux, so I know I need to find modules that I can compile against my kernel. 9 times out of 10 it’s effortless for me.

Planning on moving over from Windows 10 to Linux for my Personal Work Station. Can't decide which OS I should switch to.

Windows has been a thorn in my side for years. But ever since I started moved to Linux on my Laptop and swapping my professional software to a cross platform alternative, I’ve been dreaming on removing it from my SSD....

This is where Distrobox comes in. Simply spin up a tiny containerized Fedora, install Resolve. Everything else on your system can be rock solid Debian.

This gives you the best of both worlds.

One of the reasons I love Linux is that I can install or uninstall any application I want. I don’t even need a desktop let alone a web browser.
