It’s an HTML, CSS, JS renderer. The fact so many use Electron for bloated app GUIs doesn’t mean that’s what it is. Every browser is functionally the same thing as Electron (with even more stuff), but the use case requires it.
This surely will be used to make bloated GUIs, but that’s good if it replaces Electron and is faster. There is a use for Electron. It’s just over-used.
No matter where you buy it, expiration dates are only a general guide, and more of a “date of manufacture” note than anything. We evolved to detect potential food that has gone bad. Trust your senses. Look and smell should be enough to know what’s actually gone bad (which is usually past the “expiration” date). You can use something like this as a better guide for when food will actually go bad, but, again, trust your senses.
It won’t sadly. I can run many on my computer. They’ll still be available, even if every server-based one goes down.
Laws are much older than 2000 years. To be more specific, at least about double that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_of_Ur-Nammu
I haven’t read the bill, but from the description I think you could actually get around this by building your own. They can’t sell a printer that doesn’t have this, and you can disable it, but it doesn’t say here that you can’t build your own that never had the software. In that case, I assume we’ll see kits that are totally not meant to be assembled into printers with all their parts you need, and then unrelated documentation online somewhere on how to assemble it.
I just saw this post on “All”. I’m not part of this community and I don’t care to open an alternative for it. I’m just point out how blurry rules are open for abuse. Just because you agree with the person running things today doesn’t mean someone in the future won’t use it to remove something you want to stay. I don’t understand how people don’t get this yet.
I didn’t say they should. Your comment implied that they did (or at least implies participation is consent). I just pointed out that they, in fact, do not. There is no value judgement in that statement.
The issue is that users generally don’t get a say. Even in the fediverse, moderators aren’t chosen democratically. Yeah, you can start your own community and try to build it up, but inertia is not in your favor.
Anyway, my point is that a “no politics” rule is not really reasonable. You can have one, and you can enforce it however you want. It will always just end up causing issues though. For example: look up Nazi degenerate art. It’s just art, right? However, to them it was political, and it was political in a way they didn’t like, so they removed it from society.
No moderator is perfect. Even if you trust them, blurry rules probably aren’t the best. There’s better ways to define the intent than “no politics” that create clear borders of what’s allowed and what isn’t. Blurry rules are usually best for those who want to abuse it.
The issue with a “no politics” rule though is that everything is political. It ends up just being the mods removing what they want to remove and letting what they want to see stay.
Windows really hasn’t been the “it just works” option for a while. It’s just the option that you’ve gotten used to the bullshit to make it work. For example, the install process for every Linux distro I’ve tried is far simpler than the insane install process for Windows.
Like others have said though, you’re using the wrong distros for your hardware, without some manual work. I’d recommend CachyOS or Garuda Dragonized, as they’re made for gaming. They’re both Arch based, but they include everything you need out-of-the-box, so you really don’t need to put any effort into setting things up, only customizing it after.
One key thing with switching though is recognizing that you aren’t on Windows anymore. If you switch expecting it to be Windows then you’ll hate it. You need to go in with the same attitude you hade when you learned Windows (which you probably don’t remember). It’s something new. You have to accept that you have to learn how to use it.
It’s not just that it acts like a radiator. Feet are also not very sensitive, so if they’re a little cold it won’t bother you. You could obviously get rid of a lot more heat by exposing your torso, but it will feel cold much sooner.
As the other comment says, use TLDR. it doesn’t tell you everything, but it does usually explain the most common uses. If you need something more advanced than you need to do more research anyway.
Good UX is the best, whether that’s CLI or GUI. UX is under-appreciated.
Sure, a lot of people use it, because it exists. How many of those people would actually say it’s a requirement to be built into it though? There’s plenty of other options for screen sharing they could use. I don’t know though. Maybe a lot of people actually do consider it a critical feature. I doubt it though. I’ve used it a few times with my group, but it’s only ever a “do you want to see this?” It’s just a bonus, not a requirement.
I would bet on the screen sharing not being that big of a requirement for most people. Voice and text chats though? Yeah, that’s the minimum.
This is literally just the same thing the military uses, but with descriptions changed to LEOs. Still maybe useful, but not as useful. The utility here is the most relevant information comes first, and it keeps things organized. You can start responding before all the information is relayed. It’s important for radio communications in a battlefield setting. If you’re making a post online we’ll after anything is actionable, you can safely ignore this. Just post the information in the most informative way you can.
It’s funny you mention the VC funding. As far as I can tell, it’s only made it worse. Discord would have done great if they just kept expectations low. Instead, they’re now expected to create massive returns. That must come at the cost of consumers. I hope consumers get tired of it and leave, or someone else comes offering the simple service Discord used to provide.
The point is that it skirts the law. You can’t really make it illegal because it is a way of subverting legality. If they legally obtain the evidence then it’s legally obtained. If they happened to get to that point through extra-legal means that doesn’t really matter, as long as the end result is legal. Maybe you could argue in court that they only got there because of extra-legal actions, but they can argue the opposite. If this helps them look in the right spot for illegal actions, who’s to say that them looking there couldn’t have happened purely by chance?
One thing to note is that Linux can read your Windows partitions. If you have data on drives you’ll still need, you can leave them and Linux can access them fine. (Windows can’t read most file systems though, so the other direction of this mostly doesn’t work. Windows can’t read most Linux partitions).
If you’re reasonably technologically competent, I’d recommend CachyOS or Garuda. These are Arch based, so the Arch wiki and Arch User Repository are available, and great resources. They come with everything you need for gaming though, unlike base Arch. You don’t need to fiddle with things or set things up. They just work out-of-the-box.
If you’re not really technologically competent, but want to learn, the Mint recommendations are fine. It’s one of the most used distros, so there’s still plenty of help available. Alternatively, and I think better, there’s Fedora. For either of these, choose KDE versions, not Gnome or anything else. KDE is more customizable and closer to Windows too. (Though it can be customized to be more like anything else, or whatever you want too.)
If you really don’t want to learn, Bazzite or maybe Zorin are there.
Well, one example would be a web browser. I’m sure you can at least agree with the utility there. I would say it could also be a useful tool for a prototype, but the problem is, once you have a working prototype, that tends to become the final product.
