Ok good luck with your state-sponsored reeducation programs in your Nazi-adjacent Western democracies where the left holds no political power 👍.
For everyone else who has a fucking clue: when your government has a gestapo police state that rounds up and deports the people the state has deemed undesirable, guess what? The Nazis are already in control.
This is one of the most libbed up things I’ve ever seen a lemmygrad user post… Are you just a wrecker account?
Interesting. May need to check it out, but I pmuch only use Gnome or KDE. I hate having to configure the extra parts in a WM (widgets for bluetooth, wifi, etc…).
What makes hyprland so good? It just seems like another WM to me, but maybe I don’t get the interesting parts of it.
I don’t really understand what you’re asking for, but maybe you’d benefit from Firefox’s multi-account containers extension (domains can have their cookies isolated). Or from a more rigorous usage of the Firefox profiles features (type about:profiles in the address bar) and create a dedicated google profile, a dedicated vpn profile, and leave a regular personal profile. You can theme them so they look distinct when you have them open.
The thing you should be aware of is that Tor is designed to make you look uniform to every other Tor browser. It’s set such that you should not really stand out from other Tor users by browser fingerprinting techniques.
Without showing us what the differing warnings are, it’s hard to even assess what this information means.
the number of times i’ve seen a scratched lib turn fash surprised me… at first.
If Trump is walking the “way way worse” path on Palestine it’s only because Biden laid the path down for him in the first place.
hey man remember when the democrats were in the house and senate and obama was president and they dismantled ACORN? haha damn that’s wild, bro.
I use Bazzite on my Steam Deck because I wanted to get LUKS encryption for the hard drive (and otherwise do not wish to manually maintain the computer). I cannot take what is effectively a general purpose PC out and about without encryption. Especially not with the current political climate in my country (USA).
From dealing with SteamOS, I am already familiar enough with how to set up a full dev environment on the immutable distros. So while that is not a challenge for me, it is still a hassle to deal with. I’d rather just directly install my libraries and binaries rather than do workarounds in containers (and then remember the containers).
I think we’ll truly be in the immutable desktop distro future when I can do something like install the base distro image AND simply dnf install something (e.g. nvidia-vaapi-driver or gcc) on top without having to layer it with rpm-ostree. That is, my dnf installs should transparently live on top of the base distro, and that way my base system will never break even if something on top of it does. The problem with layering with rpm-ostree is you are running the risk of a future failed upgrade. It would be like if your MacBook said “sorry, you installed a weird XCode library and therefore we cannot upgrade the OS” – and that should obviously never happen. Restoring my computer to a base state could be as simple as dnf remove * or a GUI option to “Revert to base + keep user files” and that should leave me with a functioning basic system.
Anyway, even though I only use an immutable distro on one device I do see it as the future of Linux desktop computing. I am not up-to-date with the development efforts, but I think we’ll eventually reach a day when using and configuring it, even for advanced users, will be no more difficult than traditional distros. Maybe by 2030 that will be the case.
I made my remarks w.r.t. rpm-ostree and the Fedora family of distros because that’s what I use. Obviously the other immutable distros have their own versions of these tools and their own versions of solving the problems related to them.
I think 10 years ago this would’ve been unpopular, but today maybe not so much:
systemd is great software. I don’t use distros that refuse to ship it. Especially the init system. Thanks, Lennart!
Between Steam promoting Linux and GOG promoting DRM-free software, I will never purchase from another storefront that doesn’t even pretend to do something good for the broader community (Origin, Uplay, Microsoft Battle.Net, iOS App Store, etc).
Preach!
When I was in unspecified foreign country I went to a graveyard with my family. It was very different in that the bodies were buried basically right next to each other and you basically just walk over the bodies of the interred to get to where you want to go.
It was a bit distinct from how we do it in America where, much like our suburban houses, you have to have a pointless giant green lawn surrounding where the body is buried.
Just yesterday I asked Llama 3.3 70B params how to do something. I was pretty sure it wouldn’t be able to tell me the right command to run because I knew beforehand I was asking it something really obscure about how to use tar. I gave it all the relevant details. Imagine my surprise when it… told me the blatantly wrong thing. It even invented useless ways of running the command incorrectly.
The fact that it was made into a movie as well…
Braver than the troops.
After learning about the absurdity of copyright law in the USA I’m not really convinced or compelled to give a cent to these companies. It’s not just paying for the content. It’s giving these big corporations money so that they can lobby for laws that are against the interests of most people.
Italy seems to be leading the way to an even more bleak future. “Bleak future” seems to really be the order of the day, huh?
My hero. That also works on Linux. Thank you!
I’ve been using them for a few weeks now. Lifesaver as I try to organize stupid bullshit that life forces on me.
