This is really just a power-grab move. There already is "Let's Encrypt" - try going to a website that isn't https. You'll know right away that you might have typed a web address wrong.

The TLDR: Here, you need to eat these grass clippings to save the planet. Never mind every store you go to has items made-of and encased in plastic. Never mind that your fuel efficient car is made of plastic. Never mind the climate spokespeople that live in houses and fly in private jets have an environmental impact of small cities. Listen to them tell you what to eat and how to live, just don't question what they eat and how they live. If there is going to be real change, we won't have yearly cellphone upgrades. Items will packaged in biodegradable materials. We won't have same-day delivery for anything. Hospitals and medical offices will go back to glass, metal and reusables. They will sterilize instead of throwing away. Items will be repairable instead of refuse when they break. The burden has always been placed on the individual, but a company is given a pass because they say good things, not do good things.

The doom and gloom has been happening since the early 70's yet here we are when we should have been frozen, burnt to a crisp, frozen, dehydrated to death, seen New York City underwater, burnt to a crisp again and then frozen. The headlines could be made by a Magic 8 Ball. Its not science when the data is hidden by the words "Proprietary"

If they are selling ad time, they are selling influence.

I use Jellyfin - music, shows, movies... it's open-source and has a lot of features Plex doesn't including, not having to create an account. It's your's to do what you want.

The amount of work is on the server side, but they are forks of the same code. The sharing side is not as complex. Plex has hit an impass on remaining solvent as a business. Emby is even in a better situation than Plex is and quite frankly, I don't see a reason to use them when Jellyfin is an option.

I really wish Steam would put their foot down and stop these launchers. They are nothing but a nuisance and add no value for the customer.

EDIT: Just to be clear, when EA Play joined Gamepass there wasn't a separate launcher when you went to play an EA game on the Xbox. Steam could make this work with them and the other companies. They have enough pull to make this work - it would be greatly welcomed.

Distro suggestions?

Currently running Kali on my laptop as that’s all it was used for. Looking for something more general purpose. Mainly steam for light gaming and being able to install the tools from Kali for stuff like tryhackme. Mostly familiar with Debian, as that’s what Kali is based on, but willing to try something else. Laptop is this...

I'd try Debian or if you're feeling adventurous, EndeavourOS.

I like GNOME better with extensions. My main reason for using it is Wayland.

How do we know that everyone on the internet isn't just a bot?

I mean, there might be a secret AI technology that is so advanced to the point that it can mimic a real human, make posts and comments that looks like its written by a human and even intentionally doing speling mistakes to simulate human errors. How do we know that such AI hasn’t already infiltrated the internet and everything...

uglytruck ,

Ironically to train AI.

At this point, the only way I see a game being native is with it being an AppImage or equivalent. The resources to keep up a Windows flavor along a native port would be wasteful. The only thing I would like to see is companies stop using launchers and kernel based anti-cheat systems.
