I like how the first point made is that the backdoor violates the Debian Free Software Guidelines, as if that’s the main problem
I still have a DVI monitor connected to my main pc, so it’s not that much of a retro problem for me
Yeah, Facebook’s one is really getting into uncanny valley territory. Especially those teeth…
Carbon-based life forms
Around late 2017 I think. I was a first year university student. I bought a new laptop with Windows 10 when I started uni, but Windows would break with just about every other update. Eventually I was fed up with it and I wanted to try an alternative OS, so I installed Linux Mint next to my Windows installation.
I quickly found myself using it more than Windows, especially since a lot of software I had to use for university was significantly easier to install on Linux (think LaTeX). Quickly, it got to the point where I only used Windows as a gaming OS.
About half a year into this “experiment”, my Windows 10 decided to nuke itself, again. This time the network driver wasn’t working, which is annoying af to fix, so I didn’t for a long time. Also in 2018 gaming on Linux got a lot better, with Proton becoming a thing around that time. Even when I eventually got around to fixing my Windows installation, I found myself not really using it.
Eventually got into a distrohopping phase, used Fedora for quite a while, but right now I settled on Debian with Gnome as my DE. It’s not the most “exciting” setup, but I found that to be a good thing actually, because it allows me to get the most work done.
Mentioning you’re using NixOS is slowly becoming the new “I use arch btw”, isn’t it?
This feels like Hertog Jan slander.
As long as there is software that only runs on Windows, Windows won’t die.
Oh come on, that is obviously the internet exploder logo
Only thing I managed to run that wasn’t some shitty FOSS game that looked like it was made for the Net Yaroze
I was going to say this feels like supertuxkart slander, but I looked up the release date and realised that it probably wasn’t released yet
The ussr may not have been communist, but it was definitely the initial goal. The idea of a revolution that leads to a dictatorship of the proletariat is inherently flawed. You just end up replacing a corrupt government with another corrupt government.
Seriously, pipewire is so much better than pulse. I remember having lots of sound issues on my laptop. Sound randomly becoming extremely distorted until I stopped and started playback, microphone volume resetting to 100% earraping everyone in discord calls, random pops and cracks… All of this was fixed by switching to pipewire
Oh actually I will try that, thanks
I use it for my university email, which is an outlook account. Edge is the only browser that doesn’t constantly log me out.
If I’m not mistaken gnome web (epiphany) uses the same browser engine as safari
Name one place in the world where being straight is illegal.
