It works on all platforms, I work on mobile apps so I have quite a few Androids and iPhones, as well as a linux laptop and a Mac mini. It works seamlessly between all of those.

I’ll point to her when people say “I don’t vote because all politicians are corrupt assholes”.

It is controversial because:

• “the economy” needs to keep destroying nature. Here in France when the farmers went on strike, all the right talked about was how environmental regulations were the main issue and needed to be curbed.

• the ecological crisis is fake news pushed by leftists to distract us from the real issue, which is obviously brown people invading the west to replace white people.

As a frenchman who always found quatre-vingt weird but never bothered to find out why, thanks :)

Works great on my laptop. It takes automatic snapshots before and after running the package manager, no problem so far.

Come on that’s not fair, it’s very good* at drawing album covers and video game assets, which gives more time to artists to go work for Starbucks or Amazon instead of doing something they actually enjoy.

* passable actually, but much cheaper.

It’s a pretty popular GIF taken from the 2007 movie Hot Fuzz.

Everything he (and other like-minded politicians) says makes so much sense, and often seems obvious to me. It’s really depressing that a huge part of the people see him as a threat. We have the same problem in France, and in most countries I assume…

That’s the spirit! If you know your way around Linux admin, docker and such, don’t hesitate to dive into jellyseerr + *arr + Jellyfin, it was much simpler to set up than I expected. Once everything’s up and running, the experience is far superior to any commercial streaming service.

Yep that’s also the WM’s job.

Because having each piece of software do it itself would be not only chaos but a massive security concern.

Not really, the main point is that (most) apps don’t know where they are on the screen, whether they’re minimized, on the active workspace, … and they don’t care either. That’s the responsibility of the window manager.

The app tells the display server “I need a window to display these pixels” and that’s it. And the window manager, well, manages these windows.

On the topic of security, X11 doesn’t handle security at all, that’s one of the main issues. So any graphical app can read the other windows’ pixels, grab everything you type, everything you copy, … OTOH Wayland isolates apps so they can’t do that by default. Apps that really need to (screenshot apps, …) can use “portals” to ask for these permissions.

I’ve owned all of Nintendo’s portable consoles (except for the 3DS), a Wii and I currently have a Switch. I have like a thousand euros worth of games on it, all bought through the store.

But I’m tired of this relentless fuckery, and when my daughter’s old enough to use the Switch, I will hack my switch and pirate the games I haven’t already bought.

Same with streaming, for years I paid for 3 or 4 services, but I’m tired of those fuckers nickel and diming me, and making me jump through hoops to play my paid for content on Linux, so I canceled everything and now run jellyseerr+Jellyfin which is a much better experience.

However I haven’t pirated a single PC game in like 20 years, because Valve and Steam are awesome and the prices are fair. Same with Spotify, though Ek is a tool so I’m starting to look for (legal) alternatives.

What I’m getting at is, I don’t mind paying for my entertainment, but when I start feeling like a cash cow for fucking assholes you better believe I will sail the high seas.

The Big Lebowski is the pinnacle of humour! Now get off my lawn!

Yep that’s the idea.

It’s a scene from The Big Lebowski, right after The Dude got tortured with a marmot by German nihilists. Walter focuses on the legality of keeping a marmot as a pet, which is obviously not the main issue.

Back in 2008 or so, for a few patches WoW actually ran better under linux than windows because of some bug.

I buy mine from the merch stand at the artist’s show, they usually go for 20€-30€, even the limited edition ones.

Yeah, at this point you’re paying because it’s a collector item, or to support the artist, not for the actual content of the package.

Under linux EAC runs as your normal user, so it can’t install system-wide malware but it can read/write your personal data. If you create a dedicated user for gaming you should be safe from this kind of stuff.
