CCC was collecting some money for them last year, not sure if this is still active https://www.ccc.de/en/updates/2024/das-ist-vollig-entgleist
Edit: looks like they were past the goal they had then but if this goes on maybe 30k € won’t be enough, hopefully someone sets something new up
There have been some improvements but their poor stability is still the biggest problem yeah
I worked in France for a while and I deeply agree with everything you said… Except μ is by far the most useful Greek letter since it is used as a prefix for units of measurement, e.g. μm, μL, etc.
Also the Swiss layout is even worse, it combined all the bad features of the French and German keyboards and then just moves around all the symbols a bit more for good measure.
Firefox hasn’t broken like that for me in years, it tells me it needs to restart because it was upgraded in the background and restores the session perfectly, usually
Over 30 years of support :)
Well you can run doom on Linux, so obviously yeah
With Windows if you don’t have a tpm you have to get a whole new computer lol
That should obviously be help!! like with sudo
Two “program files” folders, user and generic “appdata”, wherever the user unpacks things, yeah
Can you fiddle up a weird black screen with lots of $ and # symbols? Yes, its a Unix and its probably Linux.
You heard it here first folks, windows is a Unix and probably Linux!

It’s not “again” for anything you’ve written in this comment thread.
And you specifically suggested that these numbers can’t be extrapolated, i.e. that they are not a trend. If it’s indeed a trend for Lemmy to have 200% yoy growth then yeah, I’d think that’d be pretty successful.
Successful or not, it isn’t back to baseline
Lemmy was at 15k MAU, went up to over 125k and now is 1/3 of that.
So it increased by 200%
If you use arch (btw) it still does
Cars’ buttons need to be used while preferably not looking at them, that’s a pretty different situation to a smartphone
This reminds me of the (probably apocryphal) Mozart quote where a student asked him to teach them how to write a symphony, and was told “start with something more simple and short, for one instrument”. The student complained “but you have been writing symphonies since you were a child!”. The reply: “yes, but I didn’t have to ask how”.
The application of this idea here is that for someone to know the requirements for their system to the degree that they can really be sure that the most typical suggestions are not sufficient for them, they probably have to understand how the kernel handles swap and RAM to an extent that they don’t really need to ask this question.
People are very ready to assume that their system is way out of the ordinary, but it probably isn’t.

No, containers further isolate the network and hardware interaction of the process etc
Anything is a normal thing for it to say, it will say basically whatever you want
