one of my favorite games unfortunately cannot be run on linux at all, and it’s a gacha. I don’t want to gamble with my account being banned
Yeah, let’s keep it to one kind of gambling. I like and use opensuse tumbleweed. Rolling release, never had stability problems.
Yeah, fuck the KMT. But as you have recognised, they aren’t a dictatorship anymore.
And the status quo is that they are de facto a small independent island nation, that is de jure claiming mainland China.
You have an island governed by a democratically elected government, with a population that from what I remember mostly doesn’t want to be assimilated into the PRC. The PRC taking it by force would, in my eyes, be rather imperialistic.
The same attitude, not the same words. Both “I use Linux, that makes me better”, and “I use Windows because I actually need to get work done” seem rather smug to me.
It could of course be “I use Windows for my needs, but recognise that other might be happier with a different experience”, but to me it feels like “I am a serious adult, and they are not.”
If we wanna go down that metaphor than it’d be in a world where the only options for a fully featured experience currently where a mac and a Chromebook.
Fully Foss Smartphones are great as a concept, and I hope that Linux on mobile gets to a point where it’s usable as a sail driver, but it isn’t there yet for me, and I believe the same applies to a lot of people, which is kinda ironic to say in a comment thread in which I just wrote about recognising how personal experiences aren’t necessarily universally applicable, but whatever.
Well, it works for me and the people I have set it up for, which of course isn’t necessarily applicable to other people’s usecases.
I think I was mainly a bit miffed about your I use Windows because I actually need to get work done line because it felt like the same smug attitude you had been criticising. We all need to recognise that out experiences aren’t universally applicable.
We do have quite a few Linux evangelists on the platform, but i feel that’s kinda inherent to where lemmy as a platform came from. I think they are a bit silly, but making that a reason to not like a whole OS or ROM seems equally silly.
There are stable distros that just work™. In the end, you need a certain amount of knowledge for both Windows and Linux, and even then, I can recognise that Linux isn’t universally suitable at the moment. I can easily do everything I need for work on it, but I’m a software dev. Friends who are artists can’t, sice the tools they need just don’t exist on Linux, and are difficult to get to run in tools like Wine.
The stability argument is a bit of a low hanging fruit though, especially if you simultaneously point at working around Windows issues, which most of the population probably doesn’t want to learn doing either.
If you wanna court the laptop oem market, windows is the safer bet.
Depending on how in-depth they co-operated with the windows for arm team, keeping some details confidential till launch might have also been easier that way.
Lucky for me, I can’t afford a backyard.
Why does that sound like a threat?
737-300, so not a new plane. Don’t think this has much to do with the current Boeing problems. Probably maintenance issues at the charter firm, or pilot error.
Well, Telegram seems to be giving user data to the German Federal Criminal Police Office, and if they’re cooperating with the German authorities, I don’t see why I’d presume they aren’t cooperating with others as well.
All this is actually documented, compared to those nebulous “important people”.
It has been many years since I’ve used an OS without full disk encryption, so I can’t really compare, but I have a Windows Partition for some proprietary software that doesn’t like Wine on my PC, and it is really smooth. Might be because it’s on a NVME SSD, though.
Well, it kinda does. If you choose to print your keys, you can use print to file and safe them to the encrypted drive, if you really want to for some reason.
Meh, Reuters, which is pretty much the mainstream western source, has been relatively good on calling out Israel, and even funded an independent investigation that found that the IDF probably purposefully shelled one of their journalists.
Doesn’t mean that having a wider variety of sources isn’t still good, of course.
You can mount the efi partition, but I don’t think you can usually mount the uefi or bios. I’ve only ever edited vbios, and haven’t done so in quite some time, but I remember needing to clamp the vbios chip. Dunno if motherboards make their bios chips more accessible, but I kinda doubt it.
Some motherboard support starting bios/uefi updates from a booted OS, so there might be a vector to be found there.
Look for specialist forums for whatever I’m buying, see what they recommend. Look at the documentation available from the manufacturer, it can be a good indication, if not of quality, than of maintainability. Also, I live in a country in which you can return any product bought online for any reason 14 days after it arrived, so that helps if it turns out to suck.
I guess? Seemed pretty relevant that notifications don’t really work like that anymore in current Android.
No, that was IBM, not valve.
