Oh damn, would not have expected that to work. The worst hack I ever used is when I helped a friend install Linux who didn’t have any spare (working) USB drives around. He did have a spare SSD in his PC however, so I ended up flashing the ISO to that.

You can also use any of the packagekit gui’s such as gnome software or kde diskover

I like how the first point made is that the backdoor violates the Debian Free Software Guidelines, as if that’s the main problem

What’s BOFA? (Apart from BOFA deez nuts)

Then what would be needed to make it a Linux distro, instead of “just” a Linux-based OS?

I still have a DVI monitor connected to my main pc, so it’s not that much of a retro problem for me

Yeah, Facebook’s one is really getting into uncanny valley territory. Especially those teeth…

What is a gender neutral replacement for man, guys, buddy, etc?

So I’ve realized that in conversations I’ll use traditional terms for men as general terms for all genders, both singularly and for groups. I always mean it well, but I’ve been thinking that it’s not as inclusive to women/trans people....

I believe they pay OEMs as long as they exclusively use Windows, or at least they get a sizable discount

That is not a Dutch flag, that is the flag of Luxembourg…

Wikipedia:

Police brutality is the excessive and unwarranted use of force by law enforcement against an individual or a group. It is an extreme form of police misconduct and is a civil rights violation.

I think you meant to say that the police using force is not necessarily wrong, but that’s absolutely not what brutality is.

How does it even work? I thought the api changes made 3rd party apps effectively impossible?

Around late 2017 I think. I was a first year university student. I bought a new laptop with Windows 10 when I started uni, but Windows would break with just about every other update. Eventually I was fed up with it and I wanted to try an alternative OS, so I installed Linux Mint next to my Windows installation.

I quickly found myself using it more than Windows, especially since a lot of software I had to use for university was significantly easier to install on Linux (think LaTeX). Quickly, it got to the point where I only used Windows as a gaming OS.

About half a year into this “experiment”, my Windows 10 decided to nuke itself, again. This time the network driver wasn’t working, which is annoying af to fix, so I didn’t for a long time. Also in 2018 gaming on Linux got a lot better, with Proton becoming a thing around that time. Even when I eventually got around to fixing my Windows installation, I found myself not really using it.

Eventually got into a distrohopping phase, used Fedora for quite a while, but right now I settled on Debian with Gnome as my DE. It’s not the most “exciting” setup, but I found that to be a good thing actually, because it allows me to get the most work done.

Mentioning you’re using NixOS is slowly becoming the new “I use arch btw”, isn’t it?

I once had someone tell me abstract dreaming is linked to creativity. I think it had something to do with which side of your brain is dominant. I don’t know if this is true.

As long as there is software that only runs on Windows, Windows won’t die.

Also, that fucking site is asking for a phone number to register. Fuck that.

You can’t fucking read comments on it without making an account. Fuck that.

Isn’t copying from others how everyone does (neo)vim? Besides, I’m even “worse” and just use lazyvim.

mutter9355 ,

I mean, I don’t know how severly resource constrained a system has to be to not even be able to run vi.

No, but I have seen my grandma’s pc

This problem also exists on the android app. When I put my ear buds in, teams somehow just refuses to switch to them. No other app has this problem, just teams.

The ussr may not have been communist, but it was definitely the initial goal. The idea of a revolution that leads to a dictatorship of the proletariat is inherently flawed. You just end up replacing a corrupt government with another corrupt government.

Right now I’m on Jerboa. I tried Liftoff for a while but it had some weird bugs, and development on it seems to have slowed down a bit in the last few months. Thought it was very promising however, might try it again in the future.

I use it for my university email, which is an outlook account. Edge is the only browser that doesn’t constantly log me out.

mutter9355 ,

Oh actually I will try that, thanks

If I’m not mistaken gnome web (epiphany) uses the same browser engine as safari

Don’t know why this is downvoted. Even distros like Debian, that are 100% FOSS otherwise, will (often) load some proprietary firmware because otherwise it would barely be functional on any modern computer.
