I found SimpleX Chat to be a fairly decent alternative without phone numbers.

All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of systemd/Linux!

but are they really? how about distros without systemd what would you call those OpenRC/Linux? systemd is indeed a giant intricate project,which is why some people don’t like it or are against it,but all its components are working alongside the Linux kernel, without which there wouldn’t be a need for systemd. I would say it’s rather Linux with systemd,as systemd is optional.

Fairphone has a great approach and I would love to buy an EU phone with replaceable parts, however I’ve read pretty underwhelming things about their software support. in that sense, paying 90€ every 3-4 years to get the battery replaced on a pixel,would be a better bet. That,plus the pixel a variants are very competitively prices and you get huge bang dor your buck.

I wish fairphones were cheaper…

TP-Link Tapo cameras seem like a much better and well put together ecosystem. I’ve been using them for about 8 months now,the cheap C100 ones, and they are ok. not great,not bad,sufficient.

Everytime I hear the word Microsoft or windowsI only hear a toilet flushing. is it me?

kde without a doubt. I tried so many times to get into gnome,even using fedora and always failed after a couple of days and went back to plasma.

I just accepted it in the end and stopped even caring that gnome exists. Competition is good though and I do hope gnome keeps going.

My brain is always struggling with upping a post,when the context is so vile. I just don’t understand how could this kind of angry POS people exist and the education their parents are giving them.

What?! Is this for real? It’s hilarious

Looking forward to reading more about it.

Still no Wayland support for Budgie. That is really the only reason I used Solus in the past. As a rolling distro Arch is still king.

I genuinely didn’t know about this. I’ve been avoiding immutable OSes as I’ve had issues with distros like Bazzite in the past where packages completely disappeared from my system after a freeze when overclocking my GPU,which ruined the whole experience for me.

However, I’m interested in blend os,which unfortunately comes with gnome by default,but I will give it another try with layering plasma on it next time I try it,cause the idea of a distrobox centric distro is really appealing.

End rant.

Thanks for sharing this.

Dude’s always been crazy. Nothing to see here.

I could never get that to work for some of my devices,so I had to use virtualbox,which works very well.

Hm, an article made up of literally 8 lines. I’m afraid there isn’t enough context yet to hate on either side ,until we know more.

Very very nice work. Thanks for your effort and willingness to experiment with new stuff. i would definitely be interested in trying it out once it reaches “production”.

I didn’t get that notification yet,but when I do,l’ll be sure as shit to donate as large amount as I can afford.

Edit: I know I can and have donated already,but just to highlight the idea

I don’t get it. Did she or did she not get her hair cut and was beaten? This post appears to be stating the complete opposite.

Edit: never mind. This is the original video that was taken out of context. The cuts and bruises were from the collapsed wall.

I wonder why are they so invested into this “feature”.

And this just about sums up all of Microsoft’s creativity.

Irrefutable truth that god == devil == null .
