Going out in public in your pajamas.
How difficult it is to find fresh produce in small shops (food deserts)
How much fat is in all the meat.
How old and badly maintained many of the roads and bridges are (I am from Africa, so that says something)
The levels of national arrogance.
Saying someone is ignorant is not calling them stupid.
Someone who does not understand that difference, while having access to a dictionary on the other hand…
I was not talking about Tokyo, I was talking about German cities that were firebombed.
Firebombing multiple German cities was fine?
You need to educate away your ignorance.
I don’t have much of a problem with the small open source projects that are generally very good at filling gaps or addressing niches.
I think most of the waste is coming for the development done by the large open source houses. The canonical and red hats of the world. They should stick to what they are doing well, which is the foundational stuff.
I think it should be: “Software that is yours”
Overall, I think more focus should be put on consolidating similar projects.
Do we really need 6 different window managers that follow the same design logic?
Do we really need each major distro to have its own package manager?
How many image and PDF viewers do we need? How many music players?
Can we convince Ubuntu that no one wants snaps and they are wasting developer resources.
The freed up capacity should be focused on better windows app compatibility. Something akin to Valve’s push in gaming.
For me the main difference is Linux only does something when I ask it to.
Windows does whatever Microsoft wants it to do.
Both have major usability issues. But Linux gets a higher tolerance level, because of higher trust levels.
Line that is straight in two dimensions.
I think the moral consensus is, if you own it, it’s not piracy.
Media owners only want you to think that.
They abandoned it, you did not.
Yep, civ 2 is my all time favourite.
Take2 is blacklisted for me, for stealing early access money from kerbal space program 2 and then cancelling it, while still accepting money for it.
I have owned every Civ from 1 to 6.
The franchise is now dead to me until Take2 is replaced.
I believe so. Have not checked recently. All my Firefox extentions work as expected
I mostly use waterfox, which is very similar to librefox. I just like the more compacted UI and performance optimization they have done.
Your own raspberry pi will probably outperform your ISPs DNS, since it’s on your local network.
Also, just by blocking what it does, pages load a lot less, so they load a lot quicker.
“And then Mozilla management comes in from the top rope with the chair”
Seriously, for profit companies should not own open source projects.
That is true. The issue is that because there are so many permission escalation issues in windows, that many anti malware products must run as kernel drivers.
An OS should not have to require a 3rd party driver for security.
Microsoft should be writing that driver as an OS component. Drivers should be restricted for taking to hardware.
I think this strategy makes sense, if you do an overall push to have all software sources verified. Knowing users, a simple warning that an app is unverified rarely affects their behaviour. You need to hide the app, to encourage app developers to get verified for it to work. Users ideally should be able to trust by default, because we can’t trust them to know any better.
Exactly. Linux mint is one of the few distros that really follow through that their users may not be proficient.
It’s why it’s my business distro of choice.
This was in early 2000 New York and Washington DC. Spent about a month there and saw it daily.
