Not exactly unheard of:

Terminal:

Vim or Neovim, Tmux or Zillij.

Web browser:

Firefox or a fork, but personally I’m fine with the standard Mozilla offering with a couple of extensions.

Photos:

Big fan of darktable as a lightroom replacement.

Yes I get what your saying, but in this analogy the screws are destroying the planet, and also hallucinate enough to be completely untrustworthy as fastenings.

Chat gpt in his screenshot. What a hack.

Honestly look down the 250 top rated games on steam. Something may appeal to you. Then go on ProtonDB to check that the game works ok on Linux.

That is very cool, it would make a fun project.

There definitely should be a good open source e-reader, but for what it’s worth I use a Kobo Clara 2e (newer models are available in both black and white and colour eink) and it works fine for me.

I download books from various resources; like Project Gutenberg and use Calibre for managing them. Works pretty seamlessly, especially with the Calibre Kobo plugin for automatic conversion to the kepub format too. However this obviously requires the use of a computer, which may be a dealbreaker. Also Kobo works well with Overdrive for borrowing library ebooks, which is neat.

Yasss, go off queen! Slay!

She fucking sucks, “Voters, get over your at the genocide we’re doing and give us the votes you are obliged to give us. (Serfs)”

Hey, she did the ‘most important election of our times’ bit as well!

Also the audience whooping and cheering for her are the most credulous sycophants going.

For laptops with RGB-backlit keyboards, Plasma has gained the ability to keep the backlight color in sync with the active accent color!

That’s insane, this is why I both like KDE and the open source community in general. An option that only 1% of users will ever be able to use. And, of those only ~50% max who are able to use it will actually want to use, but someone has made it an optional feature anyway as a passion project. I will never use this but I’m delighted it exists.

This is fucking horrific.

“We will scale up the building and supply of government-subsidized housing and improve the basic systems for commodity housing to meet people’s essential need for a home to live in and their different demands for better housing,” - but what about the profit motive?

Always been more of a gnome guy, but 6.0 is making me look over the fence with a little envy! Kongratulations to the KDE team and community. Fantastic work.

Fedora at the end of April with fedora 40

iirc the no windows 9 thing was actually because a lot of software ran a compatibility check like:

if windows version = “windows 9*” then open legacy mode

This worked for software written for newer windows like xp but still allowing a legacy mode on older windows versions like 95 and 98. Problem was this also put that same software running on windows 9 into legacy mode. So they called it windows 10 to sidestep the compatibility issues.

I don’t get it. From what I can remember from history classes and reading Wikipedia (so not ideal sources!) the victims of the holocaust numbered some c.6million Jews out of the c.14m total victims including, amongst others, c.7.8m soviet pows and civilians.

Surely what Germany should have guilt for is its genocide against humans, not specifically just its treatment of Jews. So unless we’re saying the treatment of communist, Slavic, Romani, gay and disabled people etc by nazi Germany was not such a bad thing actually and it’s just the Jews that Germany regrets killing (and surely we are not saying that!?) then it would seem to me that Germany should be speaking out against any and all genocide, including that of Palestinians?

I’m legitimately confused about this point of view.

Weird but cool keyboard! I have a diy low profile ortholinear split, but have never set up tenting, I’d love to try it some time.

A low profile choc switch sofle

To be honest I thought it was a dead project

Is this really better than proper Linux in any way? Other than native play store, which means you can run shitty phone apps stretched fullscreen. Not sure I see the benefit.
