Damage,

Hot corners were in OS X before gnome 3 even existed

Damage,

Wealth tax is different from income tax. Once you’ve received your income it becomes wealth, and it is not taxed unless you use it. Wealth tax would mean that your money in the bank is taxed periodically.

Damage,

If the developed world set this up, even if they moved money to a tax heaven, they’d have nothing to spend it on.

I wish the EU would grow a backbone and tell the US to stop stoking fires in our backyard

Is that a police kayak? In the desert?

Dude really doesn’t want to work on his new game

Damage,

They even nailed the Fallout grotesque

Damage,

I wonder how it’d play on the Deck with controller inputs

Damage,

People really are afraid of Fallout 1 & 2’s age, it seems. But they are still the best.

Damage,

I’ve had a bunch of unprecedented problems with 39, I think this time I’ll do a clean install

Creating a channel on freenode takes seconds

Damage,

Uhm, freenode already exists, you don’t have to set up another server just to create a channel. There are clients that are embeddable into webpages as well, so joining an existing channel could be as simple as opening a page for a new user.

Otherwise it’s just install a client, select freenode and join the channel.

Lol everybody did this in the '00s and '10s. It’s literally “copy this text in that field”.
Stop treating people like idiots.

What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for?

It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?

Damage,

Adoption is always the main issue, as we can see here on the Fediverse. It’s crazy how even technically-inclined people flock to discord. So many 3d printing communities are on there, people who install custom debian distros on raspberry pis, solder wires, crimp connectors and assemble open source machines, still fall into the trap.

Damage,

Didn’t know those existed.
Aliucord looks like a modified client tho, so not really open source.

Damage,

SOLIDWORKS. FreeCAD is hostile.

Damage,

Honestly I never felt the need to modify my Kobo Aura, it just works, I load books by connecting it to my laptop, and that’s it.

Prison overcrowding is only a problem if you give a shit

‘If you don’t have money to go to Europe by boat, you try to get there by starting a relationship with a tourist’: Sex tourism plagues Gambia (english.elpais.com)

Economic inequality is driving European tourists to the African country who come seeking sun, but also sex. Its government’s plans to attract ‘quality tourism’ have failed to take off...

Auto summary:

In the YouTube video titled “Fedora with KDE by default? XZ backdoor fallout, German state moves to Linux,” Nick discusses various topics related to the Linux community. A proposal to make KDE the default desktop environment for Fedora is brought up, but it’s unlikely to be adopted due to Fedora’s close relationship with GNOME and investment in that desktop. The video also covers the XZ backdoor fallout, which led to delays in the release of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and affected other distributions. The German federal state Schleswig-Holstein’s decision to transition 30,000 computers from Windows and Microsoft Office to Linux is discussed, as well as Linux Mint’s upcoming release, which will move to PipeWire as its main sound server and revert to providing Deb packages for Thunderbird. The speaker also touches upon AMD open-sourcing documentation and source code for their micro engine scheduler and Thunderbird’s progress on native Exchange support. The unpopularity of Snaps as a package format in Fedora and the importance of ensuring good quality Snap versions of applications like Thunderbird are emphasized.

I mean it’s a badass ship, but Enterprise D went through all kinds of absurd shit and always came out on the other side.

Except when they needed shock value for a movie…

Damage,

The TNG movies are worse than any TOS movie. Maybe First Contact can be considered better than Final Frontier.

Damage,

The Czech republic must be one of the countries where the cold war wasted the most potential, they could have been very rich, had the borders been slightly different.

Damage,

Yeah definitely not discreet, more like obnoxious

Damage,

I think you have a twisted vision of Europe. And it’s way less homogeneous than you make it seem.

Remedy acquires full rights to the Control franchise from 505 (www.destructoid.com)

Today, on February 28, nearly five years after Control’s initial launch, Remedy Entertainment, the team behind the Alan Wake, Quantum Break, and Control series, released an announcement regarding a deal between them and 505 Games, detailing a full transition to Remedy acquiring full rights to the franchise. While Remedy...

Who cares, maybe she decided to do something stupid, the doctors should be the ones deciding whether her claim is legitimate or not

NV is overrated, the writing of the originals was on another level

Far different from elegant, distinguished missiles

Or against American propaganda. If you read the article this is just the opinion of this figure, and it specifically mentions they have no proof.

I don’t particularly like dictatorships, but neither do I like disinformation.

Damage,

Feefees are the origin of this article, and of your reply.

Read the article if you can.

I mean, it’s my favorite genre, so if EA can stay the fuck away from it, that’s not a bad outcome

Titanfall 2

Titanfall 2 had one of the most acclaimed single-player campaigns, with it being only a few hours long and mostly a showcase to get people on multiplayer, and it was still enough.

I tried, I really did

I’ve been an IT professional for 20 years now, but I’ve mainly dealt with Windows. I’ve worked with Linux servers through out the years, but never had Linux as a daily driver. And I decided it was time to change. I only had 2 requirements. One, I need to be able to use my Nvidia 3080 ti for local LLM and I need to be able...

Grandma loves sitting in front of her 4 ultrawides while discussing the day with her friendly LLM

Why are keyboards getting smaller?

I’m not a true mechanical keyboard enthusiast. I mean I like a good keyboard for typing code, so I rolled with model-Ms in the 80s and 90s, then some expensive Cherry keyboard I only recently retired because it was utterly spent (and it was PS/2), and now I happily use a Wooting Two HE....

Damage,

For a while at work I had a numpadless keyboard and a dedicated numpad placed right of my mouse (I’m right handed), I liked it a lot.

Damage,

Ironically I set it up so after getting used to notebook’s keyboards that were more centered relative to the screen

Damage,

And even bearing that in mind, Microsoft has time and again openly shown anti consumer behavior, so they shouldn’t be awarded even the slightest amount of trust. Allowing them to continue existing in their current form is already too much.

Damage,

I worry about when I’ll have to replace my robot vacuum… The need for mine to be controlled through the internet exclusively was already a big worry for me, and now they’re adding cameras and microphones to them as well…

Damage,

It doesn’t
