Isn't the same as when RT was not allowed to broadcast in Europe after the war? I wonder why the news about Al Jazeera and Israel makes more splash than the RT and Russia news

rajishx··on TheDesk desktop environment
It's a new one? I guess you are not the target audience of this Windows manager if you are not willing to give it a try and explore the features and the experience before rationalizing it's usefulness
rajishx··on Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu
I am pretty much os agnostics, i sure do enjoy linux because of being so customizable and i am quite good at it but i don't mind using OSX or others if there was..

but when it come to windows, i can't for my life of it using it.. it's very slugggish for me (compared to the arch distro i have on that same laptop) and it's unbearably intrusive (so many shortcuts are owned by the OS that i can't disable)

rajishx··on OpenTofu Response to HashiCorp's Cease and Desist Letter
I think matt has lost any credibility he had i have been following since openstack and the beginning of containers days and it has all been downhill from there...
rajishx··on GNU Stow needs a co-maintainer
I use yadm with the default templating system which is based on awk...

https://yadm.io/docs/templates

i like yadm because it has simply no dependencies and can be installed literally anywhere on any archs (which is important to me)....

the yadm/awk templating system is good enough for me, it let you do some if host then output this or output that kind of things..... i never had a need for more.

rajishx··on Israel deploys expansive facial recognition program in Gaza

rajishx··on The day I canceled my Spotify subscription
I moved to youtube music lately after being like 10 years i think on spotify (or since when it started in the UK)... the youtube premium + youtube music was too much of a deal for me to take...

I still use spotify sometime with an app that remove the ads... but I don't get the attraction anymore

rajishx··on Spotify calls Apple's DMA compliance plan 'extortion''complete and total farce'
So glad I am using android (Rooted with anti ads stuff)
rajishx··on Gnome Mess Is Not an Accident
never been happier in my life since i stopped caring about gnome, i wrote a couple of gnome extensions to make it usable (for me) and having to deal with all the breakages was really getting on my nerves.. switched to use i3 with a bunch of shell/python scripts and can go on with my life
rajishx··on Tokyo Is the New Paris
I still think Paris is magical and can’t wait going back there (working nomad here)
rajishx··on Ubuntu 23.04 – 'Lunar Lobster'
I didn't mind the snaps since I always was able to disable them on every update, but somehow I started to get a lot of kernel freezes when running some IO heavy unit tests, it was getting really annoying. It may have been a btrfs bug or some other bug but I blamed ubuntu and installed archlinx instead.

Same btrfs/snapshotting configuration on arch and never had any issues so far...

rajishx··on Use GNU Emacs
Clearly you are not understanding what tabs in emacs are... it's pretty much a visual way to identify windows-configuration-to-register, and instead of doing C-x r w REG / C-x r j REG all the time you have a nice automatic way...

(please read the emacs manual the other post of this thread as posted)

rajishx··on Red Hat RHEL 9 release
reading it from the README it does seem they use fedora/spec for packaging? is it ubuntu repackaged with rpm?
rajishx··on Red Hat RHEL 9 release
to be fair and try to dismiss your comment, it does seem the word Microsoft has been associated a lot with opensource companies and technologies lately.
rajishx··on LXC vs. Docker
I am simple man with simple need, I am perfectly happy with a distro as long I have my editor my terminal and my browser.

I could not bear the snaps on ubuntu always coming back and hard to disable on every update, I gave up and just switched to arch and happy to have control on my system again.

I had a lot of crash running on Ubuntu when running huge rust based test suite doing a lot of IO (on btrfs), never had that issue on arch. not sure why, not sure how I can even debug it (full freeze, nothing in systemd logs) so I guess I just gave up.....
