Yeah but the entire philosophy of Framework would be one phone construction standard and then you swap out the radio chip. Granted, there’s never been a hard phone standard, and the parts have never been designed for swapping. They would be the ones designing and commissioning these standards. Anyway, so I’m gonna be waiting very patiently.

I hope my phone lasts until we get a framework phone.

I would assume that the post got to their feed through an intermediate instance that they are federated with, yeah?

I didn’t know that! From the other comment, sounds like it’s basically fixed.

Nice, good to hear.

Does it still have that weird problem where you’re not allowed to modify surfaces because of the way you created them? Last time I tried using it, I couldn’t create a mirror copy of a shape and then edit the mirror. I could only edit the source, which then applied the changes to all the parts.

Seeing as how 40% of the security issues that have been found over the years wouldn’t exist in a memory-safe language, I would say a re-write is extremely worth it.

“The SBAT value is not applied to dual-boot systems that boot both Windows and Linux and should not affect these systems,” the bulletin read. “You might find that older Linux distribution ISOs will not boot. If this occurs, work with your Linux vendor to get an update.”

Excuse me, those are the opposite of each other.

Eyyyyy midwest.social!

The vast majority of people never read the source material for anything, and that’s usually perfectly fine. They learn new things because other people told them about it. Most of the time this works great. Sometimes small changes in the explanation can make a big difference, and the game of telephone can have big impacts on people’s perception of a thing. It’s almost certain that most people complaining haven’t read the explanation, and in this particular situation it’s an issue.

For sure, which is why I only use Mint anyway. I need my hand held. But Linus was doing power-user things without power-user reading. You can’t really claim the car is no good when you opened the hood and started swapping hoses without checking to see what goes where.

Linus uninstalled his desktop after ignoring the warning that said °hey, this will uninstall your desktop.°

Yeah absolutely zero newbies are going to buy a new computer in order to test out Linux.

I use KdenLive on Mint whenever I need to edit a video. I’ve never bothered to look for the other two because I use Darktable and GIMP for my photo editing, but I can check to see if they’re available if you want me to.

Flatpak “containerizes” the program, which makes it more secure and less able to accidentally mess up other programs. Fuck if I know how it works.

Also you don’t have to type in your password every time you want to update the program, so that’s nice.

Open Roller Coaster Tycoon 2! You need to own an official version of the game in order to get the models and textures and whatnot, which are still under copyright. After that, you can play with ORCT2 and enjoy the expanded capabilities,

When you’ve inevitably barricaded yourself in city hall, just remember: we never met, this conversation didn’t happen. Revan? Never heard of 'em.

For sure, I used to drive stick when I drove, but I also argued for town planning that would make driving optional. Personal choices to deal with the reality you’re given, public policy activism for the reality you want.

I dunno, maybe take their conservative advice and violently overthrow your government?

Real talk, you’ll have a hell of a time arguing for the upgrades, but even so, I only suggest switching to bricks when the road needs to be resurfaced anyway. The road works well enough as-is, this is just an improvement.

Life is too short to have to fucking drive everywhere.
