I had no idea they were still going 😮

Use Obtainium, and try to get apps outside of F-Droid as much as possible. Their method of signing apps themselves introduces a huge single point of failure in the security chain…

I’m only 1 gen ahead with a RTX 2070 and I have yet to see a game not be able to run on Ultra on it ; but that’s probably because I haven’t been interested in any new release since Elden Ring 😅

While this is bad for the market, it’s also entirely expected.

Xbox have been producing sub-par hardware with names no one can remember and barely any exclusives, it was only a matter of time.

To other Europeans : do you know anyone who owns an Xbox ? I’ve only ever had one single friend in middle school who had a 360. I’ve never seen any other model outside of an electronics store.

Their current gen is hamstrung by the existence of the Series S, and the utter lack of features in their controllers (no gyroscope or any motion sensors ? No advanced rumble ? No touchpad ?). No one who is serious about controller gaming buys an Xbox controller, especially because of the lack of gyro.

Their dedication to digital-only and pushing the games pass also alienates anyone who wishes to play physical games and/or offline.

It sounds like a cool distro but I don’t see any advantages compared to NixOS, aside from maybe the option to make it more minimal for constrained environments.

Don’t break userspace. 32-bit support should never be removed.

No, though I imagine Graphème could implement one (but it would break Material You)

And be careful with wallpapers, apps can get accent colors from your wallpaper, which are completely unique unless you use the default black one.

Cash by physical mail. Letters are traceable, bank notes are traceable, and physical objects you have been in contact with are virtually guaranteed to have both your fingerprints and DNA on them, no matter how hard you try to prevent that.

Cash by mail is fake privacy.

They kinda murdered the game for me when they made it so easy to switch servers during play and avoid ever fighting anyone…

When I used Fedora for a while with my 2070 I had literally no problems at all 🤷🏻‍♀️

Check your games on ProtonDB

The only games in my library that don’t work are entirely the publisher’s fault for blacklisting Linux in their anticheat, and it’s very few games even then.

I’m trying to move my conversations to Signal, but some people are strangely resistant, despite using multiple corporate social media messaging services besides that.

I love reading a basic text article on the modern internet…

alias ed=$EDITOR

Extremely convenient on a qwerty keyboard.

This should probably be a default nowadays. Does even a single person here use the real ed ?

alias ed=$EDITOR is my most used alias by far.

ganis :

git add -A && sudo nixos-rebuild switch --impure -j$(nproc)

Everyone who uses nixos probably has a similar alias set x)

For the longest time that answer would have been literally true for me, I only used SMS.

It doesn’t matter anyway, there is no rule of law in the united states. You might as well lie, they will likely jail you no matter what you write on that document.

Just don’t go there.
