Totally agree. The content may be good, but title and thumbnail are marketing only. A silly thumbnail doesn’t make the content worse, so nothing wrong in the creator trying to use it as a way to increase their reach

Will this be an integral part of systemd, or will they release it as a separate thing? I mean, if I like it, but I’m not using systemd (I do use it, but I’m just thinking about it), could I use this run0 (horrible name) without having to buy into all of systemd?

What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, Systemd/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Systemd + Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Systemd system made useful by the Systemd corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX

Kernel level anti-cheat should be a crime

LMs aren’t thinking, aren’t inventing, they are predicting what is supposed to be answered next, so it’s expected that they will produce the same results every time

Old Brazilian hack to use Windows: just don’t buy it.

This is nice. I’ve played a lot of TR2 in my childhood (it was my dad’s, it was already old when I used to play) and I was very bad at it

I didn’t like the textures a lot tho. It lost a bit of its charm

I’d recommend Zorin. It has a UI similar to windows, easy to get into, great defaults, and being based on Ubuntu, most help on the internet will work just fine

I guess Firefox market share will be closely related to Linux desktop market share

I love these, it has actual useful keys

I tried it out, and it was so cumbersome to install packages that I gave up. I understand its application in servers, but for home computers it’s a pain in the ass

That looks very good, thanks for sharing it

I recently started exploring wayland and arch, installing a compositor (Hyprland) and module by module as a go. It’s unnecessarily hard but I’m learning a lot from it.

The thing that surprised me the most is the amount of components and projects that are GTK based. I always thought that GTK was a Gnome thing, but it’s very much alive outside it as well.

I’m a libertarian in Brazil, so my takes may be different from yours (I’m not even sure if the word means the same thing for me and for native English speakers).

This is the far right libertarianism, which has essentially become an extremist, authoritarian form of capitalism. In essence, those with immense power tell us that nobody has any right to oversight and regulation over others. Their power becomes insurmountable, and their control over the economy becomes absolute. We live according to the standards they provide, because we have no alternative.

Big corporations (which, I agree, are a cancer to society) lobby regulatory powers to weaken local and mid business and to evade taxes in ways small business simply can’t, that’s the source of their power. A lack of government regulation would not be good for them, because it would empower their competition, and that’s the last thing they want.

I don’t see how any system could succeed, considering the circumstances.

To me, the big problem with libertarianism is that it requires a big level of maturity from the population. It requires private regulatory and certification companies, union of workers to seek working rights in a non-violent way, and people to support charity initiatives that help the poor and endangered. All of that is not impossible, but people are very used to that being a government responsibility, it won’t happen over night

As a libertarian, I don’t trust these billionaires a single bit to do it.

They are not libertarians, they don’t care about the free market, small local business, regulatory and certification companies, or what else. They are very happy to lobby the government to enforce any anticompetitive practices that will benefit them in the long run. They probably just want a new way to evade taxes, they don’t give two fucks about libertarianism.

Sadly, tech bros won’t see through it and will hype anything these clowns do.

This is a very useful, very well done chart, congratulations.

But what a mess is FHS. Easily the worst thing of linux design for me

I’m a dead set mac 'n cheese hater

Is this common in America? To choose toppings separately?

Here in Brazil we choose from a list of “flavors”, like margherita, pepperoni, portuguese, a moda, chicken and Catupiry, things like that

So, I didn’t read properly and voted because I have aphantasia but I (probably) don’t have autism

People with different views, memes with very caricatured stereotypes, and sometimes actually good discussions

The only problem it had is that it was too much American, but Lemmy is no different
