If you need Windows you use Windows
If you need an OS that is configurable and open, you use Linux
If you don't like to configure your OS, then you don't use Linux
That's not "elitism", that's respecting the work done by countless people to offer a free and configurable OS without strings attached
There is FUD in OP's comment since my original reply to tell people to use what empowers them got downvoted, -3 pts right now
"FUD: Fear, uncertainty and doubt is a propaganda tactic used in sales, marketing, public relations, politics, polling and cults. FUD is generally a strategy to influence perception by disseminating negative and dubious or false information and a manifestation of the appeal to fear."
You have to configure for it https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management
Linux doesn't know nor care about what machine you use, it could be a microcontroller without battery to a datacenter to a laptop to a console, configure for what you use, it's not "windows for Intel PCs, RISC? what is that? fuck off"

That is very hard to believe, my bluetooth headset worked out of the box
> with the exception of steam deck and switch that have a carefully tuned and tightly controlled OS distribution for a carefully chosen hw configuration
That exactly prove my point, users usually misconfigured their OS, the moment you configure your Linux OS, just like Valve did, with your distro of choice to suit your HW, then everything works as expected, that's a one time job
If that workflow doesn't suit you, then linux is not for you, and that's ok
> Pointing the finger at the user is emblematic of the problems Linux has when people say it isn’t suitable for the desktop (and these days they mean laptop).
Because that's the reality of it, the problem is the user who expect things to work for him while ignoring its dimensional capabilities
That's not a linux problem, that's a user problem, it's arrogant and selfish to expect "Linux" to work just for your specific HW and specific usecase and all of the effort should be dedicated to you, just you, for your own sake
Do like valve did with steam deck and configure your Linux OS for your HW, if you are not ready for that, then use windows or macos
16:9 is the most popular aspect ratio on desktop, there is no valid reason to waste more vertical space
that's poor UX
Linux is not a commercial product that'll suit everyone all at once, you need to learn about its components, linux is just a kernel
If your argumentation is "various linux bugs", then you should stick to Windows, it has nice "various windows bugs", or macos, it has nice "various macos bugs"
There must be a reason why linux empowers the world from micro controllers to datacenters as well as the Steam Deck and the nintendo switch for its FreeBSD variant
Use what empowers you, no need to spread FUD
This decompiled object class also spy on the grid network, that's quite interesting and very clever
I never knew we could also lobby governments to push for some office and cloud software full of spyware, even France had to ban them! [1]
This TikTok app is very dangerous!
Of course /s
Specially when they get caught red handed like in Ukraine
They then quickly pushed the smoke narrative wich consist of: "US gov please help us fund Starlink to help Ukrainians keep access to the internet, why do you refuse"

Germany should build their own industry instead of giving away their money, you didn't become Germany by subsidizing Ford or Toyota
Specially the people who have a short memory and forgot about the recent Python extension controversy
Screw them!
Considering we were warned already from that company, remember dotnet hotreload?

When your sole choice becomes their sole product, one should have reacted in the past
Where did all the investor money go? just to slap vscode?
I sincerely hope Sublime Text open sources its editor so the community can hack together a WASM version of ST..
Things are not looking great
thanks for letting me know about civetweb, looks like it is based on a very old version?
> admitted you have no evidence
forget about me, i am a nobody, i'm not a judge or a CIA agent, maybe you are, good for you
Here some evidence: https://www.ahaber.com.tr/gundem/2017/11/11/15-temmuzun-kili...

Turkey's intelligence has, read the source
clang --target=wasm32
That's it, you target WASMPeople somewhere decided that it was too easy and went ahead to bloat everything with Emscripten, WASI and the like
Here is all you need to know to target WASM: https://schellcode.github.io/webassembly-without-emscripten
The only target for WASM is the browser, everything else is just bloat and a waste of energy
Tate and Rogan and the likes all originate from Youtube/Instagram, Youtube is known for tasteless prank videos, it's full of politic content
On TikTok it's people dancing, DIY tutorials, travels, cooking stuff and cats
Send me a screenshot of your TikTok homepage vs your Youtube trending homepage ;)
It's similar to the position in Ukraine, officially Israel is not there, but when you dig through the propaganda, you find some gems [2]

I should conclude with:
don't get me wrong, i support the mission and the goal, i just question the methods and i challenge the dogma
content: "honey consumption MAY improve"
".. when consumed within a healthy dietary pattern"
let's share this article!
Is it?
Now that YouTube copied them with Shorts, shouldn't we be worried about YouTube having an influence over our youth with their secret algorithm too?
Considering Google's origin partly lies within the CIA/NSA which is basically the US government [1]

Congrats to lichess and everyone involved who helped!
1. it is not permanent, it disappears and never remember anything
2. it doesn't respect the paths (can't navigate)
3. i don't want to play a keyboard shortcuts game
That's just one of the issues i have with the Gnome Filepicker, there is also the mounted disks that appears like it's a mobile UX, and many more, i have a document with everything that i hate about it, but i'm not on my PC to share it, it is an UX disaster
I wish i could use Thunar as a filepicker, that would be perfect
There was clear signs of both CIA/Mossad involvement

I moved to XFCE when Canonical announced going back to Gnome 3
I wish they'd replace the Gnome filepicker too, that is the worst piece of garbage i ever seen, you can't even manually type a path!!
Unless that move is to further drop the price of $TSLA so he can buy it all many months later for a discount and then make it private
Yeah i think i'm into something nasty ;)
They have Fleet wich should support LSP, but i'm not sure if that product will be successful, they have a lot of work to do with regard to performance (cpu/memory), and based on the recent public preview, it's built with the wrong foundation for that matter
That's clearly a pro-microsoft PoV doing a subjective analysis of the situation
What ever it been fueled with, knowledge wasn't created at an individual's birth, it's an accumulation of a collective and shared effort
The point i was trying to make in my post is; it always starts from the people, for the people to continue, for the people to achieve a civilizational ascension
If we build the means to generate infinite energy for free, then we'll have to ask ourselves if giving that much power to the individual a safe endeavor, or if we should make sure the prospect is for the collective to ascend
Thanks to this achievement, many will learn from it and acquire knowledge to pursue that goal, would it be the case if it was a solo for profit effort? i doubt it greatly
The open source tech industry thrives because it's a collective and shared effort, funding issue persists but that's due to us, individuals, living civilization's transition, it'll be a solved problem shortly
