Meh it’s not like Linux is one static block of immutable code.

It’s modular.

So it’s not like all linux distros will evolve the same way. And OP points it out that some distros are affected by age verification laws while others are not at all.

So I think it makes no sense to panic and thinking all linux will converge to some Windows ersatz…

I think the fact there is so many distros out there is our strength but also what prevents people from discovering the right linux for them.

So this will be the year of linux discovery imo and all linux user should help out new users finding their way to a linux that fit them for their journey to freedom.

And he lost the case obviously…

Americans rediscovering the importance of labor unions…

I think it’s a waste of time to fight it.

Elon just has to ask daddy Trump and he will get anything necessary to get the autorisation.

I don’t think the Astrophysicists will convince Trump obviously.

Hey you should check out the Lafay method I mention.

It’s a method without any specific equipment required.

Most of the increased difficulty is managed by how long you rest and the posture for the exercise.

That said you need something to suspend under.

I would wager you can emulate any exercise you do at a gym at home.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics

There is a well known method for that designed by Olivier Lafay.

It doesn’t require any specific equipment and can be completely done at home.

Yeah. I have BF6 so…

But at this point I’m reluctant to boot up my windows partition just to play this game.

I’m also on an NVIDIA GPU (4070 Ti) and I have no problem so far.

Even if the NVIDIA driver are marginally less performant, i think the leaner OS makes up for it.

I’m fairly sure I have better FPS and stability in Rocket League.

As long as you are ok with some tinkering with proton from time to time I think cachyos can work as a daily driver for gaming and most desktop tasks.

Too little, too late.

Already left for Cachyos and it is for me without a doubt better at everything than Windows.

Good riddance.

While technically correct, it runs apps, it’s misleading because it won’t run the majority of apps from the playstore.

Google holds people captive with the playstore and the very sneaky google play services.

Only the most hardcore tinkerers and privacy oriented would run a pure AOSP phone.

Ok, not OP but also wired-to-argue-for-no-reason :

People present graphene as some independent project that throws the middle finger to Google.

In reality Google could very easily stop tolerating the sandboxed playstore and require them to follow the same “certification” as the other.

Sure graphene could still ship but without the playstore that will be a very different experience. You can roll with F-Droid etc but your choice of apps would be very limited.

Basically, I just wanted to point out that graphene is definitely working with the permission of Google and google could very well sabotage the project in a few dumb requirements.

Exactly, the fact this dude at Krafton can sign 250 million dollars deals but is also dumb enough to think a ChatGPT lawyer knows better than his own lawyers… It goes to show that many powerful people were just lucky or inherited their wealth but are definitely not successful because they are smart.

A bold lie.

As if paywall removers are “universal”.

Just like gun control was the topic I would purposefully avoid on reddit, AI and LLM are the new forbidden subject here.

Archive.today owner looks like a clown.

I had no idea they were doing all kinds of nefarious shit like that.

This is a conversation about the issue of proprietary formats in our institutions.

And I think PDF is a problem in that regard. It’s not fully open and the format still can break. Forms in particular are still very problematics. Forms are very useful in institutions…

* Only if you dont use the many still proprietary extensions of PDF I suppose.

Anyway I’m not sure following the Adobe standard in our institutions is the smartest move.

I did the switch to full time linux gaming a few weeks ago.

Initially I was on PoP OS but I wasn’t happy with it. I reinstalled everything on Cachyos and it has been very good so far.

Here are the main “hurdles” that I think I should not have encountered in my “liberation” :

• I activated FDE in cachyos but the LUKS decryption prompt was never on my keyboard layout so I could never decrypt with the original key. I should not have to handle keyboard layout issues when decrypting FDE. This would be fatal to any beginner.
• I still think the tinkering with proton is too involved. Some command line arguments should be activated automatically depending on your setup. Players should be able to anonymously opt-in to sharing settings for all the game they start.
• Mouse sensitivity is wonky on many linux distros for gaming. Mouse acceleration should not be a default if you target gamers. I dont care if original Arch has this default. 99% of FPS players avoid it.

That being said, leaving Windows makes me incredibly happy and I’m very thankful for the great opportunity the open source community has given me through great free software.

“Don’t use that proprietary format ! Use PDF instead !”

PDF is also an issue.

Don’t worry, we will all be paying for it when the AI jenga tower will fall.

Businesses can make huge investments mistakes and then they will ask for help from the government that will have to save them to prevent total collapse and to save jobs. So we will pay for a few dumb CEOs like we always do.
