“an Android”?

As in a ROM or a device? 🤔

tanja ,

Was it native before?

Or Windows-only?

tanja ,

Neither is good

tanja ,

AT does have some advantages, but I strongly prefer the whole philosophy behind AP.

And yes, bsky doesn’t really inspire me with confidence.

tanja ,

Nice

Good to see one of the two big packaging hubs do something against malware

tanja ,

It isn’t a capitalism problem it is a human problem

Capitalism is the human problem.
Let’s get rid of it.

tanja ,

+1

tanja ,

Material Files actually does allow for multiple windows on Android

tanja ,

Ain’t no one getting excited about any kind of capitalism any more 🤮🤢

Aight

Tinfoil hat time

Why all the memes about Taylor Swift, if other rich people have more jets 🤔

Maybe because she plays a role in the US elections, maybe chance? GOP memes go brrrr

Thanks for coming to my tinfoil hat talk

I don’t think they’re allowed to do these fake loading screens in the EU

PS: in the settings of uBlock Origin, you can select a cookie banner blocker. This gets rid of 99.99% of cookie banners ✨ (there’re also options against newsletter boxes).
9 of 10 hacker kittens recommend this 🌸😸

tanja ,

Good meme, but keep in mind Elmo (Mr. X) has 3 jets and she only one.

Also: Where’s the public transit 🥺

tanja ,

It simply makes no sense that it only blocks Chinese citizens specifically.

I don’t want anyone to buy/own housing which goes uninhabited for a long time while there are so many homeless people who need a place to call home.

It’s difficult to imagine a person struggling to buy/rent an apartment/house, and for them to get mad about nationalities, rather than the fact that housing needs to be an “investment opportunity” over being recognized as the basic human need that it really is.

I hardly care if it’s Chinese people, Wallstreet, some Big Tech corporation, or just individual landlords driving up prices.

Housing must be accessible to all people, if a society wants to call itself civilized.

This bill going against Chinese citizens, rather than all foreigners tells you all you need to know about the real motivations behind it.

tanja ,

Yes, basically agree.

But I just think it’s kind of obvious why they only block one ethnicity, I believe protecting consumers was only the second priority here.

Utah joins 10 other states in regulating bathroom access for transgender people (apnews.com)

Utah became the latest state to regulate bathroom access for transgender people after Republican Gov. Spencer Cox signed a law Tuesday that requires people to use bathrooms and locker rooms in public schools and government-owned buildings that match their sex assigned at birth....

tanja ,

Could’ve worked on tackling climate change, inflation, homelessness, (some form of) European style health care, labour rights, or expand public transit, but they choose to discriminate against transgender people for zero gain.

Why are the United States so wird?

And how do you even enforce such a law effectively?
Many people have very good passing, and there have already been (self video-) recorded cases of cisgender people getting “accused” of being trans by some transphobe.

No one even wants these laws, at least most people don’t.

And why is the headline so non-judgemental? “Regulates” isn’t a good fit for tyranny imo.

tanja ,

Removing /repo is not considered safe, but I just removed its contents anyways and then just ran a repair.

That actually resulted in more available disk space than after running the garbage collection.

And my flatpak apps still work 🤷‍♀️

tanja ,

Honestly, as long as you’re not going for a clickbait-like thing with lots of 😂, 😭, and 💀, when is not really justified, I don’t really see an issue.

Personally I’ll use ✨, ☺️, 🌸, and 🥺 regularly in my comments as I think they’re cute 🥺✨

tanja ,

Rather disappointing.

I’d be in favor of a law requiring the labeling of such products, but this seems to overreach; especially when applied to animal feed.

tanja OP ,

Silverblue is sure not limited to only flatpaks.

Oh 👀
I didn’t know that; I knew you could modify the underlying system, but doesn’t that result in new A/B snapshots, or something like that?

toolbox/distrobox

Sure, but I’d like to have a more seamless experience, i.e. not having to open/start any “containers” or something like that.

Also, can I “normally”/traditionally install software on NixOS, e.g. through Steam?

tanja OP ,

Daily driver;

  • Dev work (VS Code) 👩‍💻
  • Using Firefox 🔥🦊🛜
  • Playing games every now and then (mostly Steam & Proton) 🎮
tanja OP ,

Sorry for my ignorance,
but why is blendOS not a viable competitor to NixOS?

tanja OP ,

I think NixOS is awesome

how well is it suited as a daily driver for dev work & playing games?

tanja OP ,

You look at defaults and think this is linux.

What do you mean by that?

On the Fedora Atomic website, they write:

Project Atomic is now sunset

The Atomic Host platform is now replaced by CoreOS. Users of Atomic Host are encouraged to join the CoreOS community

Do you think CoreOS is a good fit for a desktop?
I always thought it’s more of a server distro.

On a related note: Would you recommend Fedora Silverblue?

tanja OP ,

Thank you; that was very insightful 😊

Also: I think rpm-ostree only supports rpm-based packages, tho; right?

Can I install .deb software too?
And is there any kind of system-as-a-config-file kind of solution available like in NixOS or blendOS?

tanja OP ,

I’ve got Nix OS running on one of my computer

That’s very interesting 👀
Why did you choose NixOS?

tanja OP ,

it’s broken by design

what do you mean by that?

tanja OP ,

Thanks for your suggestion, but I’ll never use snaps/snapcraft/snapd by choice;

I do see the reasons for why developers/app maintainers may want to (universally) package themselves, but we’ve got Flatpak for that.

Less loopback devices = better imho

tanja OP ,

downloads a lot more than other distros on update, and uses more disk space

why is that?

tanja OP ,

How do those compare to NixOS and blendOS in your opinion in terms of usability, flexibility and stability, considering an (at least mostly) tech-literate audience?

Given I’m still on Manjaro, would you recommend I consider NixOS, Fedora Silverblue, or blendOS?

tanja OP ,

Thanks, that makes sense.

Do you think the use of OCI containers/images is a mistake/bad choice from blendOS?
How is NixOS different?

tanja OP ,

Thanks for the detailed response.

I’ll probably go for either a Fedora Atomic Desktop or NixOS.

tanja OP ,

Fedora Silverblue and NixOS looking very interesting ✨👀

tanja OP ,

What do you use, then?

Given the context, I’d assume either Arch or Fedora Silverblue 🤔

tanja OP ,

How well does Ansible work when I want to change my config? Is a quick reboot sufficient!

Shrinkflation hits IKEA Family by removing 5% discount (i.imgur.com)

IKEA Family is a membership program, like grocery store memberships. The only real feature of the program was their 5% discount. But now, they are getting rid of it to focus on “New Lower Price offers”. I’m not holding my breath that their prices are going to come down anytime soon....

tanja ,

But you still get discounts on BLÅHAJs, the most relevant item the store sells anyways.

At least where I shop.

Blåhaj 🥰✨

tanja ,

Yes yes 😌☺️✨

tanja ,

Sure is

🦈 💕✨🌸

tanja ,

But which bird will be renamed to X?

tanja ,

Can you install the Android Wear app from F-Droid too?

tanja ,

Honestly, I don’t understand why this happens

tanja ,

Same here

tanja ,

More and more articles will be written by language models and that really sucks 😔

ChatGPT literally makes exactly that mistake (with the initial letters)

tanja ,

Based. Good riddance 🏌️‍♀️

tanja ,

Very relatable indeed
