Time to write on some big ass rocks again!

But really in some ways as tech and storage of info has gotten more dense it really has gotten more fragile and harder to maintain over long periods of time. We may have (m-)disks that can last for decades and more but would the reader last?

I agree they should have put the switch first but also dev is messy. At least you can about:config it. And even then your data isn’t being sold out to anyone unless you use it.

Hmm no

Our mission is to ensure the Internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all. An Internet that truly puts people first, where individuals can shape their own experience and are empowered, safe and independent.

Thats the first paragraph from their mission statement here https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mission/

Doesn’t say anything about environmentally friendly. Also I think this part “where individuals can shape their own experience and are empowered, safe and independent.”, and their stance on AI in their browser and it being opt in make sense. Some people want to use it. Let them have a safe and private way to use it. Maybe Mozilla can show how a privacy respecting AI experience can be. Wouldn’t that still be a net good?

I use it to regularly push a new version of a PDF planner/calendar in December.

Setup a matrix bridge for WhatsApp. Run WhatsApp on a VM when you need to open the app. Tell them you don’t have calls which they will get on signal.

This is to protect from ddos, not do the ddos

I know it’s part of the OS right

So seems like it does have that. Which is awesome! Thanks!

Printer drivers, weird random things like that.

Oh sweet, KDE is nice! It’s nice OOTB and still powerful.

Its more about contributing monetarily to the tools you frequently use.

How is bazzite? Does it have a more complete desktop env than the steam deck?

Time for OnlyFloss

4. I’ve found it easier to switch to Linux and using windows on a VM or docker image. Tho I had my plan for the migration and used markdown as a means to avoid Ms word.

5. Treat each distro like an ice cream flavor. Some are good, some are bad, some are great and some will make you go what the flying fuck. Try and find what you like. There’s a lot out there.

6. Check out Lutris as a launcher for non steam games.

7. See 5. Different desktop environments for different people see what calls you. I was all up in KDE and the moves to sway.

8. Most games with Denuvo

9. Maybe but depends on the parts. It’s either change the part or figure out a complex workaround. You’ll find manufacturers that have better support for Linux.

Give their 27% to Alacritty or to Meld

Spider-man one more day. Just let aunt May die. Have Peter go to therapy or something for the grief, then years later do a reveal that it was Norman Osborne the entire time.

Its actually for the aliens who crash landed here and are looking for their route back. Its just convenient cause once they get their route home they can just zip away

Yo mama so old she has experience with desktop computers.

Was not expecting a yo mama joke in this 🤣🤣

Agreed. Tho we have unfortunately moved from that golden age

The closest to a daily driver you can get to is Sailfish OS on a supported phone. There’s a lot if amazing work in the linux phone space as the bar for daily driver is fairly high.

Have you done anything to get that? I have not been able to get decent GPS unless I planned 20 mins in advance

Yeah that kinda became a dealbreaker for me. I really wish that was better cause it’s the only thing I feel holding it back as an android alternative. Its got the apps (thru android emulation), the control and freedom to brick it as you want. Just needs the GPS sorted and its great! (Yes things could be better but I can forgive those issues)
