Good god, is this a post from Mastodon or something? All of your posts look like the title is a duplicated version of the post body.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Logseq yet.

“Someone mentions a distro they like” ≠ shilling. I use Bazzite and have been for months. Before that, used Nobara, EndeavourOS, and vanilla Fedora, along with a number of others I tried when I was distro-hopping. Wholeheartedly believe that Bazzite is currently the best generally-available Linux distro for gaming and is up there for general use. It’s not perfect, but nothing is - it gets close for the use-cases I mentioned, though.

They have their own config generator and port forwarding is really easy to set up IMO. Both need to be logged in to see, though.

The interface - GUI and website - is straight out of 2008 and documentation could be better, but otherwise it works just fine for torrenting and browsing. No complaints there.

Happily using AirVPN for port forwarding.

I don’t think one currently exists, but it would be an interesting project. There are plenty of trackers for CVEs but in terms of project ethics, acquisitions, etc., there’s a space for it.

The two main problems I can see are:

1. How do you define ‘negative’? An open source application being acquired is often a bad thing, but not always. An acquisition by FUTO is more likely to be viewed positively than an acquisition by Microsoft, but either can be interpreted positively or negatively depending on the person.

2. Community involvement is absolutely critical. If I were running a service like this (for example), I would only really be keeping up on the services I use and care about. I would need others to submit info and then verify it.

Any issues lately with your network? When DNS is down or having issues, Firefox and forks take forever to start up.

I hope eventually we get an ARM-powered Framework.

Bought a Framework shortly after Linus Techmin joined forces with them. Was stolen out of my partner’s car a few months later and just haven’t been able to justify (or afford) a replacement.

If you want your environment to be consistent between desktops, keep it mostly stock. The default KDE themeing and setup is pretty damn similar to Windows 10, and I’ve kept it stock ever since I started using it ~1 ½ years ago.

It is not an abuse of anyone’s creative rights to the convert music from a game you legally own to a different format.

I think Obsidian and Logseq are helping to change this.

For what it’s worth, I’ve been running alternative Discord clients for years (Webcord, discord-screenaudio, and now Vesktop/Vencord) and haven’t encountered any issues or bans. By far, the most polished and well integrated is Vesktop/Vencord. I don’t consider my Discord account worth risking either, but given that I’ve yet to see a verifiable report of someone losing access to Discord for using an alternate client (even the ones that enable Nitro subscription features), I think I’m pretty safe.

Personally, I’d say risk it for the biscuit. There are some hacky workarounds but all of them are annoying to set up and finicky. As for alternative platforms, I’m not sure…

Gas fees, fees to convert to fiat, electricity bills for miners / initial investment for stakers… No matter how you frame it, there are still associated fees. Might as well use the standard we have at the moment.

Pardon me, but would this not interfere with partners’ ability to host services via 99% of Linux-based servers?

I’ve heard (but not been able to verify) that it’s less secure, somehow. Although I would imagine the containerization would, somehow, mitigate this.

I’ve been trying Bazzite out for a few days, and it’s really neat. Coming from a standard distro, I like the idea that I can install pretty much anything with the combo of Flatpak, AppImages, and Distrobox. I was unable to install DaVinci Resolve on the Fedora Distrobox however, and the lack of Snaps - although I much prefer Flatpaks or AppImages - kinda sucks because it would be nice to have the Snap for Flutter…

Does HTMX count for Web 1.0?

I’ve no idea what you’re referring to aside from maybe the Intel ME, but there may be a way to flash coreboot on it.

I use GrapheneOS. It is unable to access the Internet entirely.
