I may be wrong but i thought this guy was not at all a respected investor and only made 1 good trade. So his opinion is kinda worthless.

I thought that snaps were open. The only thing Ubuntu didnt open source was the storefront and people can build there own storefront.

Is that wrong?

I dont think Foss is Socialist. Foss can be but generally isnt. 11

Or we could have politicians that do their jobs. Socialism doesnt fix any of these issues.

Companies will act just as degenerate when all their employees depend on its success and if you’re one of the socialism except state controlled thats even worse because you put all your eggs in that basket and if the government is bad you’re fucked. Look at what trump is doing as an example of how that could go.

I just hate how top doesnt format the values into mb, gb and tb. Its 2025 we dont need to see things in bytes. It makes me skip top and go straight to htop

I think their update model is actually great. People are super hesitant to have apps auto update but its important to push out security updates quickly to minimise damage. It can be easily disabled if you insist on manually updating.

Freshly dead body I’d probably not worry about the size. Rotting I’d want at least two Olympic pools worth of distance and I’d still have my swimming ruined.

If it was the ocean I’d probably swim 100m away cause tides and wind are moving things around.

Osrs is great for chatting with random strangers.

World 1/2 varrock west bank, f2p draynor willows, fishing spot at barb village. Any skilling spot usually has people chatting while they do their very afk skills.

Crazy it took this long tbh. Looking at Old school should have been enough of an example. But Jagex in typical Jagex fashion cant do anything and requires the community to stop the game driving off a cliff.

(Yes I am Jagex biggest hater)

They look cool

Its what you do when you naturally want to point but dont want to be seen as rude and aggressive.

You die and Russians/Ukrainians post the footage of your death on telegram to put in a compilation

You forgot having an entire room dedicated to model trains

I am defending Manjaro not because I think its a top tier distro that people NEED to use but only because I think the criticism is overblown and its becoming dogma and it needs to be pushed back. I also do not like seeing users who would be fine on the distro are pushed away with scary warnings. There are very few distro choices that new users would pick that would actually be a bad choice, the ones I would say would be Kali and Arch. The rest are fine. Remember when a user asks hey I wanted to try out this distro call Manjaro it seems good and there is like 100 comments making it seem like the stupidest most dangerous choice and recommending a slew of other options they’re probably less likely to suddenly trust that advice and more likely to just stay in the comfort of what they are already on.

For the Manjaro defense I only find 3 instances of their SSL failing and they seem to be for non critical subdomains on the web. Its avoidable but its a mild inconvenience with no critical impact. During my search I see that a ton of the biggest tech companies in the world have had the same issue multiple times on actually critical domains and other distros have had the same issue. Its an SSL cert expiring its like one of the most basic fuckups in IT and it catches everyone thats why a whole industry got made out of products that fix the problem.

The other thing people bring up is the AUR DDos which sounds bad but reading through the AUR bug thread it didnt seem to be a big deal and it had happened multiple times before from bugs in aur helpers. Its software this shit happens, it happens everywhere at every level. Why are we holding a mid tier linux distro with probably 10k users to the standards of apple/microsoft (who have all had similar issues and far far bigger fuckups).

Yeah seems like everyone is constantly talking about suicide its very normalised. You dont really find people these days who havent contemplated suicide.

I would guess all or even most of the people talking about suicide with an AI arent serious. Heat of the moment venting is what I’d expect most of the ai suicide chats to be. Which is why I thought the amount would be significantly higher.

Its pretty common knowledge so I dont feel like I need to cite battery life comparison videos.

Laptop manufacturers do a lot at the driver level to optimise battery life. In linux most laptops are using 3rd party drivers with very few having vendor support. This plus windows having a more mature power saving system.To top it off CPU sleep states dont work as well as on windows because vendor did not put the effort in.

Theoretical linux could have better battery life if the manufacturer supported its drivers we see this with the legion go s windows vs linux and the steamdeck windows vs linux.

Yes

1m out of 500m is way less than i would have guessed. I would have pegged it at like 25%

What’s the Wayland equiv? I did a quick search and got a few different answers. Apparently bashrc still works since its your term shell but not for setting variables in the login shell. One comment said it could be ~/.profile

Do you know?

The funniest thing was the hacker news thread where some people were so AI and corp brained they were saying hey now maybe this could be a great idea.

Bro screenshotting your desktop and running an llm over everything will never be a good idea or feature that outweighs the cost. Linux battery life is bad enough without an llm I’m the back 24/7
