Sorry but I like the drip

ew /s but I feel gross even writing that

1. I can afford good clothes now
2. High quality clothes last a long time
3. Having a Ubuntu shirt is a good conversation starter
4. I would rather have a Tux logo than a Nike one
5. Giving 5$ to KDE makes gives me the false sense of real contribution to the project

It’s probably all the AI web crawlers that have Linux userstringe

Sleep is easy, you just prioritized that 30 minute YouTube video

Librewolf is cancer for regular use

From what I understand, xorg has fundamental security flaws. How will they remedy this?

They won’t. Don’t download random shit and if you’re worried, run it in Flatpak

What happens when the Linux kernel drops support for xorg? Do they intend to fork an older version of the kernel in order to keep support?

Not really possible, since X11 is only built on top of the kernel’s graphical interface (same as Wayland). Even if that wasn’t the case, the kernel doesn’t delete any code that anybody uses (that’s why 30 year old programs still run)

The first comment on the request

For the sake of all of our sanity, I’d really appreciate if FESCo could decide on this one really quickly (e.g. putting out a statement) and avoid what could be a most unpleasant flame-fest on this mailing list.

It depends where you are and what you’re renewing. Lots of these things (photos/fingerprints/etc) may be optional. Research beforehand, talk with the staff, express your concerns, be polite, and see which parts you can opt out.

If we find out “I do not consent” opts out, I’m fine with it.

Why? They don’t need more money. Jellyfin proves how much of their service can be done for free

I have access to ~20Gb/s worth of extra bandwidth. Is there any way I can “donate” it to different Peertube instances? Right now I just use it to seed things and run XMR/I2P nodes

No lol

You can dual boot it

1. Finish off Firefox
2. Break up Chrome
3. Profit

Btw I would recommend leaving a note on the desktop saying something like COMPUTER_SPECS.TXT. I had Linux on my computers in school, and I was thinking “holy crap Linux is slow and old”, but it turned out to be cheap hardware (and I didn’t know better, back then)

This is why the layoffs on Google’s Android team were good, and proof that they weren’t deep enough.

I wouldn’t worry about security. Mainly because more security always means less things work as intended, and there’s not really any malware targeting Linux. Just like, pick a distro, use it, and pivot based on things you like or dislike

Honestly I started looking into it (found some articles from 2017 where he showed Nazi imagery) and started asking myself wtf am I doing.

Calling people Nazis over the tamest crap is so old. I’m so done with the liberal crowd on Lemmy jerking each other off over simplistic issues. Get a grip.

Auto-rotate probably won’t work because it seems like the acceleramoter isn’t supported by the kernel, but if you really wanted to debug it, run monitor-sensor and rotate your laptop around. If you see the numbers change, it means your hardware is supported and you might just need a package (although it’'s also possible that Gnome and KDE don’t support it).
