Howdy! šŸ‘‹

Iā€™m level 27 web dev from šŸ‡«šŸ‡® Finland. Full stack developer by trade but more into server side and sysadmin stuff.

A furry or something. Why be yourself when you can be fluffy raccoon on the internet?

Iā€™m also on Mastodon: @jakeRaccoon

Sorry to ask, Iā€™m not really familiar with Linux desktop nowadays: Iā€™ve seen Flatpak and Flathub talked about a lot lately and it seems to be kinda a controversial topic. Anyone wanna fill me in whatā€™s all the noice about? Itā€™s some kind of cross-distro ā€œapp storeā€ thingy?

Cool, thanks for the explanation.

a single application that gets bundled with all necessary dependencies including versioning

Does that mean that if I were to install Application A and Application B that both have dependency to package C version 1.2.3 I then would have package C (and all of its possible sub dependencies) twice on my disk? I donā€™t know how much external dependencies applications on Linux usually have but doesnā€™t that have the potential to waste huge amounts of disk space?

Well, just by looking at responses in this thread, the controversy most definitely still exists. Some seem to like it and others hate it fiercely.

Telegram has a builtin support for proxies and the authorities probably wonā€™t be able to block all of them

So nice to be able to play more Portal after all these years

The quest log tends to remind me of my ticket backlog at work.

Yes, absolutely this. New quests/tickets just keep coming faster than you can complete themā€¦
