Arch users recommending Arch to beginners. In other words, Arch is fine, the community isn’t.
It really could be more if the linux user community could agree on things and stop gatekeeping - which seems to be the only thing most online active linux users can agree on “ermagerd eternal september” 🙄
3·1 day agoA bunch. I simply do not communicate without private messengers. If somebody asked me to use Matrix / Element, that’d be fine too.
People who don’t care enough to use a private messenger are implying that they don’t care about my and our privacy. It’s quite simple for me not to want to talk to them 🤷♂️
I think you misunderstand the purpose of Signal. It’s for encrypted communication. SMS can be encrypted but it can be a real hassle and security risk if messages are sent over 2 different channels and start arriving out of order or not at all. Sending media over SMS is also a problem as now that introduces another problem: MMS is over data, not SMS. If you don’t have data but do have SMS, a message in the chain isn’t delivered which means key renegotiation.
They dropped SMS for very good reasons. It’s not because “they are lazy” or and they had “fuck all to do”. If it really were that easy, it would’ve been done.
62·2 days agoIsn’t that the same for an upgrade to Windows 11? You don’t “just” upgrade to a new OS or OS version without checking whether everything will work. What kind of an “IT leader” would you be?
I’d say if you aren’t looking at alternatives and testing them to reduce costs and future turmoil like this, you aren’t doing your job. Whether the outcome is sticking to Windows 10 and paying the fee, upgrading to Windows 11, or finding a Linux distribution for your environment, at least do the legwork of investigating.
Beyond concerns about the accuracy of age-assurance technology and the VPN workaround, the new search engine rules will still allow users to access adult content simply by not logging in.
This dude could look at TuxedoComputers and Slimbook. They make good laptops.
22·2 days agoWhat’s going on there? MacOS and OSX are counted separately.
That must be a mistake. Are there any Finish people on Lemmy? I’d like to know if they are observing this on the ground, because honestly, if every 4th person had Linux there it would be somewhat visible. Even non-techies in the family or friend circle would mention it or ask about switching to it, or there would be a popular store to buy stuff with linux pre-installed.
41·3 days agoWhen was that released? This 30TB version is hot off the press. I’m not surprised that it costs 600$. The 20TB version you linked is 16.4$/TB on a promotion, the 30TB one is 20$/TB. Without the promotion the 20TB version would be 430$ making it 21$/TB.
Give it time (a year or less) and it’ll be even cheaper.
And Apple. And Amazon. Actually, all the stuff from Magastan.
The Stop Killing Games movement is great because it brought this kind of thing to light. I just hope it will succeed and not just fizzle out after gamers think getting 1M signatures is the end of the road. There is a long battle ahead.
As they should. Please drag out and lose big. Hopefully the fine increases the longer this goes on.
The ability to generate tritium within the reactor is crucial. A sustainable fusion energy system needs to produce more fuel than it consumes
I clearly don’t understand the fusion process. Deuterium is used to fuse and create tritium?
The reactor core also features an electron-screened environment. This design reduces the energy needed to overcome the Coulomb barrier between particles, which lowers required fusion temperatures by several million degrees and allows for higher performance in a compact size.
What’s this “electron screened environment” they are talking about? They can’t purge all electrons from molecules when they enter can they? That would make the molecule instable. But it sounds like they are doing something similar in order to reduce the temperature required for fusion.
91·15 days agoUh… Responding to the wrong post? Not sure what you’re on about.
Does it include route search using public transport?
Regardless, congrats on the release!
LKML: The end boss of kernel development
Contributing to Linux was my first time interacting with a mailing list, at least for the purpose of sharing and reviewing code. I thoroughly hated the entire process. I tried in vain to write about my experience in a constructive manner, but it always turned into an unhinged rant, so I gave up. In summary, I think that sending and reviewing patches via email is exactly as insane as it sounds.
That’s the worst part but kconfig doesn’t sound much better. Even if I had time, I wouldn’t try contributing to the kernel for those 2 reasons alone.
It is great that he got to the point he is now. Kudos for pervering.
And now we have a new streaming service 🤔 Really nice.
I was thinking that by now, we should have enough bandwidth to stream webcams straight to each other without HLS or WebRTP or whatever. Just make the device available over a port or, as you did, cat it to another PC and voilà. Actually, why don’t we stream raw camera feeds?
