Well, I’ve only seen KDE on TW, so maybe it was just the default theme color scheme that gave me NT flashbacks. Though I did actually mean that as a compliment. Maybe I also don’t remember NT well enough.

9·2 days agoIMO “Smart” refers to the lawyers that got paid to write a 900-page TOS that lets a company do whatever they want.

FFS, this should be illegal.
Fedora gnome is so good it makes Linux boring
Is this a workflow thing? I was looking at Fedora last week and I’m interested to hear what you like about it.
I’m on Cinnamon and made everything look like OSX, but it seemed like gnome would have a learning curve. And as much as KDE looks like Windows NT, something a touch more modern does seem nice.
Literally describes my last couple weeks distro hopping
I’ve literally never had a problem with this…that I know about.
What are you all turning off?
Technically not the only answer. If you’ve never had botflies and carried water from the well in a bucket, then you’re not living.
…are you serious? I know this is Linux Memes, but have you ever used Windows 11? MS has been ruining their own products for years. 1/3 of their janky code is LLMs constantly causing problems.
They’re not really competitors across both enterprises. If they were then you’d need some conspiracy theory-level mental gymnastics for things like:
https://aws.amazon.com/windows/products/
And finally

This isn’t Coke vs. Pepsi for computer boops. This is about ad revenue! They can partner up to cut Google out of the mix!

…Anyway
IMDB might be, they’re covered in trackers and ads. MS is a donor to Wikipedia (via Microsoft Matching Gifts Program) so they’re getting what they paid for.
The bigger weight is anything that MS can sell for ad revenue.

It’s real, and it’s spectacular.

Also, drama with your “roommate”

How did you know?
Were you…watching? Hmm… you like to watch, eh? (insert maniacal laughter)
Their shitass “system test” when running on a VM says it’s fine, but via browser so it’s just looking at the user agent. But I’m looking at the online testing app, which I do expect would test for a VM and warms against it. For a course, maybe, maybe not…
Does a VM not solve this problem?



While I expect the same, there’s also just a reasonablility standard. If Meta and Google updated their TOS to say that users agreed to become human chattle slaves to mine cobalt and forfeit their rights, no court (…right, SCOTUS?..right?) would uphold that. A TOS is a contract, but it’s mostly for the protection of companies from liability. Takign active steps to brick someone’s device over the device not connecting to it’s C2 server (the company had zero evidence this was done intentionally and a router firewall misconfiguration could just have easily done the same thing), is IMO something that should result in a lawsuit.
