The “free” part is clearly not working. Or rather it is working as is now intended: free labour for the private sector to exploit.

I remember seeing a thread about redis on r/linux where lots and lots of people were basically defending Amazon as if from an anarcho-capitalist position. This confused me as I always saw foss (and foss users) as leaning socialist and anti-corporate.

I spoke to someone about that and they linked me this article (and the article linked in the first sentence) which really opened my eyes.

The TL;Dr is basically:

FOSS is not socialist. The free software movement is right-libertarian / “anarcho”-capitalist, and the open source movement is neoliberal; neither of these is even particularly close to socialism.

I mean, I installed Kate just to do a comparison before posting, I can show you the screenshots if you want. Or just continue believing what you want.

But kde applications use even more space with the title bar, menu bar and tool bar. Even if you disable the toolbar and menu bar, there’s much more padding in kde applications resulting in the content area being significantly smaller. I just compared Kate to gedit and the new gnome text editor and it’s not even close. The gnome applications are much more compact.

I’ve been seeing people complain about header bars being “huge” for years, but every time I actually do a comparison, the header bar application turns out to be more compact than the alternative.

The only issue with gnome in that area is their antagonism towards themes, as themes can easily fix any size possible problems, but the newest default theme is quite reasonable. I used to have custom CSS to shrink the header bars, but it’s no longer necessary.

That being said I recently switched to plasma as well, as gnome’s forced Wayland transition resulted in way too many workflow issues and bugs. But I just configured plasma to work like gnome-shell and I’m continuing to use gnome applications.

Would you make the same joke about all germans

I’d say at least 80% of all jokes told about Germany and Germans in the last 70 years were in some way related to Nazis or Nazi stereotypes.

Every time I thought the US was stupid for doing a thing, the rest of the world followed with the same bullshit a few years later. Some sooner, some later. The US is not more stupid, they’re trendsetters.

They seem good on paper - every time I look for a phone on gsmarena’s phone finder I get a few of their rog phones in the results. But then I look at the price tag and the gamer aesthetic, and I ignore them.

It was an embedded system. The user wouldn’t be able to download and install stuff, they just turn the thing on.

As someone who likes to actually own and customise all my devices, devs like you are the bane of my existence. Read up on software licensing, and pay special attention to the history of its enforcement and what it enabled us. Then please reconsider your user hostile stance.

I tried the link preview feature as well, and to say the response to it is overblown is putting it mildly. I haven’t looked at the source code, but based on how it appears to work I’m not sure it even qualifies as AI. It basically selects 2-3 sentences from the reading mode version of an article, but the selection is so bad it might as well be random. Not surprising as it’s a tiny model that runs locally and is only given a second to make the selection.

I actually laughed when I saw it - this is what all the weeks of fuss were about?

I’ve played this game for over a month now, maybe two, and I haven’t encountered a single instance of that happening. The next answer is always deducible by logic. I have gotten stuck plenty of times, and a few times I even thought the game was totally and definitely wrong, only for me to realise that I missed something.

If you continue playing, you should know that the games get harder as the week goes on. The weekend ones tend to sometimes take me 15-20 minutes to work out.

There’s dozens of us here!

They were also wise to not have revealed the Switch 2 any earlier, because it would have jeopardized sales of the Switch 1. Enough companies have made this mistake in the past.

Ah, the Osborne effect…

It’s worth noting that this is a new line of ThinkPad, there’s a bunch of existing lines that will all keep the classic look. Though I feel like the name X9 isn’t great, but whatever.

Well there’s no shortage of those, and they’re unusually cheaper too (unless they’re specced out). I prefer a thin silent one myself, so I welcome this innovation.

Mediatek has been making phone SoCs since forever now, they have two lines - Helios and Dimensity. They’re used in many phones, usually on the lower end. Even Samsung uses them. Both lines have abysmal custom rom support compared to Snapdragon phones, so I don’t think you can hope for much there.

Oh yeah, it was Tuesday yesterday.

Sir, permission to leave the station?
For what purpose Master Chief?
To give the Covenant back their bomb…

Haven’t seen this one mentioned yet.

Podman not because of security but because of quadlets (systemd integration). Makes setting up and managing container services a breeze.

Yeah, it seems the sensor costs as much as a decent used camera.
