Ok, just read the artlce cited on wikipedia and it sounds like calling him a Trump supporter is a bit of an exaggeration. He seems basically centrist. Which is not great but not nearly as bad.

Their CEO is a Trump supporter

It’s the same as about:profiles

Just an easy way to separate people’s browsing histories, cookes, bookmarks, etc I guess. And you can have them sync independently as well. For if other people want to use the same computer

Well, I guess he has tried to make his views fairly plain on his blog. it’s just a bit hard to find unless you’re looking for it

i do want to point out how hard it is to even find out about the views of these people, if you just look up the names of the projects and aren’t specifically looking for this information there’s no way you’ll find anything about it

even looking up the name of David Heinemeier Hansson, the more vocally bad of these, i had to go to the 5th link to find anything even vaguely mentioning his views

This isn’t new, the features have been in the app for a while now

I think it’s the gartner hype cycle, which usually uses the same labels as the meme

I guess it’s realizing you just want a stable “it just works” type of mainstream distro with a large community and support

Yes, it’s definitely a more mainstream entertainment channel than pure info

aimed more at gamers than tech people I think

“we do these things not because they’re easy, but because we thought they would be easy”

for 4 Linux would also kind have the same problem as a 3rd party ROM, (almost) no one is making mobile apps for Linux

Sure, there are a lot of desktop apps, but most don’t have a mobile UI in mind

Samsung, Xiaomi and OnePlus have removed the option of bootloader unlocking on all of their devices.

Got me worried (bc i have a newish oneplus phone) but apparently OnePlus is only doing that in China for now. Still not a good sign for the future…

For phones Google gets to decide, as an os maker. For PCs, there are multiple OSses so hardware manufacturers get to decide.

I personally don’t see AMD or Intel doing that anytime soon, and if they do, at least Arm and Risc-V are making some good progress in the desktop space

if you close all the terminal tabs and do ctrl+r on a new one it will search all of the ones you closed

It’s not just risk, you also can’t really target a narrow audience. Indies can afford to make a game that only 1/100th of people will be interested in. Even if the AAA studio was 100% sure they would succeed and gain a loyal fanbase, they won’t do that if the potential fanbase is pulled from too small of a group.

the other thing is that you don’t actually need to rise the video game hierarchy to get an executive position like you might expect. You just need a business degree and some examples of successful leadership at other companies, even ones totally unrelated to video gaming

Yeah. AAA higher-ups are very rarely gamers or actually interested in playing video games. They’re just business people who I think mostly want to chase the profitable trends and recreate whatever successes they had in the past under projects with actually decent leadership.

Indie devs also generally aren’t concerned with stretching the runtime out over return limits or in a way that will prevent people from reselling the game.

I’ve used some slightly weird hardware but haven’t experienced anything of what you described. Across the whole range from the lab server with 3 3090s and 500gb of ram to my $40 Chromebook I got on ebay

Not a petition exactly but I found https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

There might be others, I didn’t look that long and I’m not in the EU so idk

The linked petition says:

The European Parliament MPs must vote AGAINST Chat Control legislation during EPlenary vote in June-August 2021.

It’s not even up to date. And it only has 1.8k signatures.
