I totally agree with you. IMO cars should be delegated for those who really need them, like in rural settings. But, currently, most new cars sold are too oversized, so smaller cars could be better in that regard. Though, the Chinese would probably just create big SUV cars just for North America.

I switched my server from Ubuntu to Fedora, partly so I don’t get sold Ubuntu pro on every login lol.

Since traffic lights are car infrastructure, you don’t need them when there are no cars, which is the case in many cities that are walkable and bikable. You don’t need a machine to tell you what to do when you’re only going 20 km/h.

I guess the cost is worth it to Google just to entrench themselves and their products even further into the lives of most people.

This is literally me, except I left a comment here earlier today and when I saw the thread for a second time when looking at a reply, I also thought it was about Proton alla Wine.

Decibels seems to be an audio player to playback individual files, like maybe a voice memo or single music track. I personally use Gapless when I want to play music with shuffle and playlists.

I use Discord, though only in a web browser and only for semi-public chats. I might be using Discord less if I had gotten some friend groups onto something like Matrix.

Unlike a car which is bought once and is mostly outside of vendor control once you have it, Proton mail is a service that requires continuous trust in the company since they offer a service. This means I no longer trust Proton as much, which makes me much less inclined to use their services.

They better have had traffic cones on their heads. The mental image that creates is quite funny with the contrast to the serious businesmen trying to sell AI one booth over.

With how easy it is to Massgrave to get a valid Windows key, I personally don’t even consider backing up windows keys lol.

I think it’s probably down to preference. I personally really like Fedora server because it comes pre-installed with the Cockpit webui which replaces the role of Portainer and makes other admin tasks like firewall openings and user management trivial. I’m definetly glad to have switched away from Ubuntu server which I was using before.

IIRC Meta was one of the first companies to publicly release a language model that you could run on your computer, called llama. Hence the naming of projects like llama.cpp and ollama.

I find the ad blocking in Gnome Web to be sufficient. The biggest thing that is holding it back in my opinion is a lack of features like extentions and FIDO support and moderate performance.

I want to play my games, not grub boot entry simulator.

Bruh. I’ve been using Fedora and EndeavorOS for the past few years and have not had to edit grub boot entries once. That really sounds like something that I would be doing if I was dual booting Windows lol.

Yeah, you can really tell with LTT that they make videos almost daily in the quality of their videos. I still find their content to be very useful to discover new things, but I don’t really trust them when it comes to good conclusions and accurate data. That is where Gamer’s Nexus really shines in my opinion, even though they cover different topics than LTT, being more review and investigation focused.

Huh. I have personally found SteamVR to be slow and very flakey, even on Windows. I find using monado I can just play. I guess monado has a bit more initial setup, but I personally found it to be worth it.

Maybe they mean that they use flatscreen applications in VR, or maybe they take all their meetings in VRChat.

Yes, Meta shit actually works quite well using Wivrn apart from it being, well, from Meta. lvra.gitlab.io is a treasure trove of Linux VR info. SteamVR is kinda shit on linux, so using the open source openXR runtime Monado is ideal. I personally use a pimax 5k I got cheap used to play Beat saber and it works quite well. While not complete, there is very promising progress on getting WMR headsets working. The Index, Vive and Vive pro all work with no fiddling though if that’s what you’re after.

Same result here. I’m using Gnome-web, which is already pretty niche, so that probably really lowers my score.

Hugo is also pretty cool.
