Also, slave labor.

If you want to blow the whistle on somebody and wonder if the Guardian is trustworthy I suggest you ask Julian Assange.

Garbage out is what he aims for.

I use 2 8bitdo ultimate 2c wireless on my steam deck. Had to put the 2.4g dongles on short extension cables because of interference from the dock’s USB ports, after that they work flawlessly, both via 2.4g and via bluetooth.

As I just migrated from windows this year it’s just wild to me that “comes with x pre-packaged” is an argument at all. That sounds like having a windows version that already has, say, steam preinstalled, which takes 2-5 minutes to do myself (in Windows or Linux). I wouldn’t specifically pick that to save the 2-5 minutes. Researching it would take longer.

Now, if we’re talking about things that are actually hard to integrate into some distros that’s a different question, but I clearly am not informed enough to imagine what that could be.

I just installed Mint and picked the nvidia drivers in the manager. Am I doing something wrong?

And just like that we’re at silly made up hypothetical situations to drive fear and an agenda. That’s not even worth entertaining.

It’s all hypothetical until it isn’t anymore. You’re literally the slowly boiled frog.

They don’t know how bookmarks work.

From a SecOps standpoint, it’s perfectly reasonable to block such devices from hitting your servers.

Then they should give users a way to replicate the lost features on their own server. That’d be the user’s own risk.

I know that no company does that. Doesn’t make it right.

Don’t buy IoT bullshit, kids.

Because Microsoft bribed them by moving their German HQ there.

Oh yeah. I remember watching my older brother try to set up that kind of connection. I was never allowed under threat of capital punishment to touch anything of course. Good times.

I love that you tried to help though. Thanks anyway.

I looked on protondb of course. The issue isn’t the launcher, it does boot into the menu and freezes once I load a game.

Meh. Most games, I’d say. Couldn’t get Cyberpunk 2077 to run on Mint.

It’s smoother than Windows gaming was when I started Windows gaming (win 95).

It annoys me to no end whenever MS word does that.

I’m convinced that most people (especially politicians) know that, they are just presenting fake alternatives to slow down investment in renewables. The ultimate goal is to keep burning fossils for a bit longer.

they could steal your personal data without you knowing

Is that supposed to be more intimidating than corporations stealing my personal data with or without me knowing?

Noob question:

Is there any advantage over my phone’s stock email client, considering 99% of my emails are confirmation emails from online shops and similar stuff and I hardly ever actually send an email to anyone or receive one from an actual person anymore?

It takes way more effort from the user and leads to more people dropping out.

Then make it 0 to 3 or 0 to 1 for all I care. You missed the point, which is: If I want or don’t want feature A doesn’t influence if I want or don’t want feature B, and linking the two distorts the results of the poll.

in the end, the result is the same in Aggregate.

Not if you include the human factor of the decision maker, who can twist “wanted less” into “still wanted a bit” as a justification if they want a certain feature for different reasons than user benefit (like, say, a “privacy friendly” but indeed not at all privacy friendly mechanism to give data to add networks). That doesn’t fly with “0 points”.
