Microsoft is the “Linux salesman of the year” because most people switching to Linux do it just because Windows has become so terrible.

Do you really want to chat about that with the distilled essence of a million redditors?

I hated Windows 8 enough to put up with it at the time. It’s nuts how much things have improved since then.

He’s the best example of someone falling upwards. He’s not much more than a cash cow for other people running the companies that he owns and their successes are not happening because of Musk, they are happening despite of him. It goes as far as SpaceX allegedly using “handlers” to keep him from interfering with the actual development. I’m pretty sure that you, as a mod of !mechanicadvice@lemmy.world, have more technical experience as the guy who claims to be the genius behind Tesla.

The reason that Musk is making these obviously dumb decisions at Twitter is because it’s 100% his toy to play with and there’s nobody else running the show for him. What we are seeing is essentially the unfiltered effect that he has on a business.

No, the long range drones are only used by the Ukrainian military.

Credibility is not the only thing Europe is bound to lose if Russia is victorious.

Maybe we should hit the 2% goal first…?

Same here, at least so I thought until I started distro-hopping out of curiosity. And I learned that there are a ton of Nvidia specific problems on a lot of different distributions. I guess I just got lucky with my main setup that I’ve been using since around the same time.

For the same reasons that fast food is popular. It’s basically dumbed down mindless consumption. I used to be on reddit because I could talk to like-minded people about interesting topics, but the vast majority of people on the internet just want to be entertained and with the support of the admins, they ended up taking over the site. Sure, there are some niche communities where you can have valuable discussions but their time is limited. It’s essentially an artificially accelerated Eternal September.

I’m on Neon User Edition and 6.0.0 is the latest version. I’m currently running 6.5.0-25-generic.

I had to do a double take on that headline. What the hell, it’s actually real.

A lot of it has to do with the way Cannabis is treated at the EU-level. Some countries are trying to legalize it in a way that doesn’t conflict with existing regulations. That is also why it took Germany so long to approve their new legalization bill.

AmogOS

The only sad thing about this is that only one of them can lose the lawsuit.

Is something like this actually enforceable? That’s like Microsoft saying you can’t use Wine on Linux.

If you upload an image from your browser, there’s a little popup in the corner for a few seconds that allows you to delete it again. No such thing exists in the apps though and if you miss the popup, that’s it.

I’ve been on Neon since Plasma 5 came out and there have been a couple of annoyances like the wine dependency or the background updater recently yeeting my bootloader. I also had the issue with the black screen after the upgrade, though I was lucky to fix it within 10 minutes. After that the power buttons in my start menu were broken (how do you not notice this in testing?) and Konsole can’t be launched from Dolphin anymore. At least the first one was fixed a day later.

I guess that’s what I get for being on a distro that promises to deliver the most recent KDE updates as soon as they come out, but I can’t help but be a little disappointed to have severe instabilities happen on an “official” distro like this.

Tbh I’ve never used anything other than Nvidia hardware on Linux and I’ve only ever had some minor annoyances over the past 10 years. Nvidia has a bad rep in this community because of the closed source drivers, not so much because of stability or compatibility.

There are a bunch of alternatives like Tildes and Raddle, but they are tiny in comparison. Lemmy is the place to be if you want a reddit-style platform.
