That’s a good point too, it shouldn’t be held to the standard of a legal document yet. I watched the video and definitely did that - forgetting its initiative nature. I think it could be helpful to specify the scope a little more so it doesn’t suffer from scope creep later and get nothing done, as well as bring some focus to the future discussions. But I’m reading some good points in this thread, and I’m curious to see where it goes. Fingers crossed!
Good videos, I enjoyed both of them. The initiative comes from a good place but could use a little more work before being brought to gov’t, if that’s the best place for it.
The first video does address this idea - time stamped for convenience. Basically it’s starting the wrong conversation, without enough nuance to a group of people that may not understand the nuance of the gaming industry. Could end up with more bad than good, as gov’t has done by accident before. I recommend a watch of those two videos, I probably haven’t summed it up very well and out of context clips aren’t necessarily a good representation either. PirateSoftware’s a good speaker imo, easy to listen to.
Definitely misread that as Download The Mall and was quite amused by the name until I checked the link to see more lol
Curious to know more about how you host your own models? Does it require high end hardware?
I’ve never heard of this before, and it sounds interesting after a cursory search online. Why the downvotes?
They’ve said they’re committing to keeping perpetual licensing and are using Canva’s resources to speed up development though. So far, seems okay to me. At least for now. Unless anyone knows otherwise?
I’m in the same boat as you but haven’t figured out how to install different DEs yet. Did you find a good guide for installing/uninstalling them?
These are the most comprehensive lists of resources I’ve ever seen, thank you!
Never heard of FMHY or awesome before, what are they? Could you point me there too? Thanks!
So if I wanted to sync photos from my phone to the computer, then delete the local copies on my phone to save space, that would not work?
E: But keep the copies on the computer, of course
This is a fantastic list I’ve bookmarked, thanks. But I do want to highlight OP’s first point where it says:
…they are too confusing because they list too many apps for each category.
Might be a little more beneficial for OP to highlight a couple useful for their use case that are fairly beginner friendly? I’d do it but I’m basically in the same boat as OP right now, lol
Oof, memory issues are the worst. I haven’t tried Dolphin myself so I can’t offer much help there, but good luck finding a solution! I should give it a try sometime
Fair point, Mint doesn’t represent Linux as a whole. I finally settled on Mint cause I didn’t like the look of stock GNOME and… I forget why I decided against using Mint’s KDE. Choose Cinnamon cause I was tired after distro hopping a bunch and didn’t want to tinker anymore.
I’m sure you can customize GNOME to look like KDE/Cinnamon, but if it just breaks in the next update or two I’d rather not go through the trouble.
I think I read somewhere that Mint is getting wayland support soon though? It’ll be nice if that fixes the crashing bug.
Very specific - linux mint occasionally… crashes? Goes back to lock screen randomly, and closes all open programs. Very annoying to have happen when playing Beyond All Reason with 15 other people, causing the game to pause while I scramble to get back in (if possible). Haven’t looked into why too much, just went back to Windows to game. Mint for casual browsing and most else.
The closest thing I’ve seen is lbry, where some creators have mirrored their YouTube accounts. But it feels like a very small number of them uploading there.
E to add: As with all alternative platforms, it’s also home to a lot of content that was kicked off of more mainstream platforms for one reason or another.
That sounds interesting, do wifi cameras show up differently compared to normal networks?
