Said the Capitalist Denuvo Bootlicker on !technology@lemmy.ml 🤣

Their username is Sxan (as in Saxon).

Can we please make the camel case titles not a thing?

If bribing a fascist president with a literal gold bar, refusing to comply with EU law and then complying maliciously years later, global tax dodging, and anti-competitive behavior isn’t enough to piss you off sufficiently, I’m not sure what will.

When the Motorola Graphene phones are available, I’m dumping my iPhone, which is my last Apple device.

I was wondering about this. Do you have any resources for what they’ve been up to since their vile “big tent” statements?

The heretic rejects the truth of KDE Plasma! Burn them!

With the sarcasm now out of my system, I will definitely give this a try. Thank you for the tip. The tiling feature in COSMIC is amazing, but the rest of the environment is still rough. I would love to see more like that.

Exactly, it’s a serious red flag.

I would also interpret it this way, though California’s government is profoundly technologically incompetent, despite being the home of “Silicon Valley.”

Knowing California, they would try to twist the word “vendor” to cover any entity that does any kind of business, similar to how they dismantled interstate commerce protections for the entire country. If that didn’t work, they would argue that donations make something a vendor.

The situation is stupid and I am long past tired of idiots pushing idiocy on others en masse.

Both are wonderful. I still recommend Fedora to most new users, but I decided to test drive CachyOS almost year ago and then never went back. Cachy is so cozy.

Jetbrains has free non-commercial licenses for open source projects. If not that, I’ll use Kate.

I won’t touch anything associated with Microslop. Not Windows, not Github, not Office, and not VS Code.

Always start with Bazzite for gaming. If you decide you want more control, switch to Fedora KDE. When you want to explore whats out there, put everything that interests you on a Ventoy thumbdrive. I don’t recommend Mint for new users primarily because it doesn’t officially support KDE Plasma.

Bash is in the epstein files!?

Good thing I use Fish.

Thanks, I hate it.

The real question is whether the Affinity installer works. Adobe can get lost.

Try Winboat. If your needs don’t require GPU acceleration, Winboat is flawless.

This is small potatoes for a company that murders it’s employees in cold blood.

KDE is the secret to winning over Windows users. Plasma 6 is everything most people want Windows to be. It’s also why I am very unpopular with Mint acolytes — I am always trying to steer new users away from Cinnamon, which means away from Mint.

RbP created a publicly traded company for their hardware, which is almost-wholly-held by Raspberry Pi Foundation, which is a charity.

That sort of thing ought not be allowed, ever. It’s similar to the path Arduino took to get here. There are still other competitors, but for the time being I’m happy enough with RbPi’s dirt-cheap microcontrollers. Their mini-PCs are a different story. We’re already seeing enshittification and price gouging there. It’s just a matter of time.

Arduino has been irrelevant for a while. There are better alternatives for everything they offer. For a start, take a look at Raspberry Pi’s microcontrollers.

How wholesome! I also appreciate the move to Codeberg. Don’t forget that Codeberg runs on donations. Please help if you can.
