Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.
Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.
No sane NAS should work that way.
Unless you have a giant raid array, where you need all the drives running at the same time on the same system, plugging in a single raid 1 member, for example, via usb to sata adapter, should let you access its contents just fine.
Provided you’re on an OS that can read the file system. That can require some extra effort on windows.
But yeah. Beware of the pre-built NASes. The vendor lock-in is real.
Framework 16?
Definitely something to consider in terms of longevity. User replacable RAM, storage, and battery.
And they’ve now successfully done the first mainboard and gpu refresh.
Linux would not be pre-installed, but it can be purchased without windows.
It seems your point is to shit on KDE, in contrast to MacOS. But since you don’t actually know the current state of either, you’re just making a fool of yourself.
Good day.
And has been the MacOS way for a while now, too.
What was your point, again?
It is.
That MacOS doesn’t display the scrollbar except while scrolling, does not reduce the height of the total list.
Both have search fields for good reason.
Don’t be difficult.
You really cannot argue that the layout, and hence how people would actually navigate it is not “about the same”. Your words.
To bring up a cosmetic difference is a nitpick. It’s the breeze theme, with a personal color scheme on top, not something explicitly made to look like MacOS. Which it could be.
You really haven’t checked lately, then.
The video has been recorded, but is not out yet. Linus talked about it on the latest WAN show and on social media.
I don’t think Trump is familiar with shame. Even as a concept.
KDE can be set up such that a ex-mac-user barely has to re-learn anything.
The difference is that while gnome looks a lot like MacOS, it isn’t exactly like it in terms of layout. An ex-mac-user will look for certain things in certain places, and won’t always find them. (such as power off/restart being up in the left corner)
Meanwhile, the customizability of the KDE desktop means you can manually put the same things in the same places as on MacOS. You can put a krunner search button in the same spot as the spotlight search button. You can make a panel that behaves like the dock, floating and shrinking to fit the number of icons in it. You can have a top panel with a power menu on the left end, and you can display a global menu to the right of it. Even the krunner keybind is the same, and spotlight people tend to pickup krunner like nothing.
Finally, the KDE settings application seems to be the most similar to the modern MacOS settings application.
The big caveat being that the user will need someone who can instruct them with setting this up, or who can set it up for them.
Gnome is closer out of the box.
But you can make KDE work almost exactly like macOS. The top bar context menu, power menu, bottom dock, left-hand window buttons, etc.
It just involves changing a bunch of settings.
You can also just hook your phone up via usb and enable usb tethering, allowing the PC to use wifi or mobile broadband via the phone.
Saw this a while ago via Mick Gordon.
So glad to see him get work, and also with a game that seems promising.
OpenSUSE is fantastic.
I gave Tumbleweed a few days, concluded it’s possible to do anything I might want to do on it, and then promptly went back to my Endeavour install :D.
A part of it is concern.
System administration on a system you’re planning to use remotely over the internet must be done right. Not being sure what you’re doing is how we all learn, but you really should be sure before exposing yourself to the internet.
It’s not like experimenting with linux on a laptop. Self-hosting is usually about providing some sort of service for yourself, which if accessed by someone malicious, can be used to really hurt you.
The lemmy user to linux user pipeline is real.
In a nutshell:
Google is spending a shitload of money to find bugs in FOSS projects, but then refuses to spend the fraction more it would cost to contribute an actual fix, rather than just a bug report.
Basically, they are willing a spend a ton on finding a bunch of work for FOSS developers to do, but not on actually getting any of it done.
Indeed.
I’m not saying there aren’t NASes that do this. Unfortunately, there absolutely are.
