oh no, making linux usable for more people who stick with windows because their games don’t run. that is so bad and definitely not what we want at all, apparently. linux bad now, because epic and nvidia exist.
are we fucking for real right now?
imagine my surprise when i learned they live in chicago after moving here.

kinda surprised it’s that recent. most of lemmy’s content ime is just reddit posts from several years ago.
let me know when a single one of them quits instead of just complaining and going along with it anyway. i won’t be holding my breath.
“i’m just doing my job” is still just claiming to be following orders. looking at you, every single person that continues to work for a health insurance company.
nobody ever seems to detail what kinda bloat they mean when they say that, i don’t think they actually thought about it that deeply. nobody complains about anything specific like XUL support, for example.
i would have just used the home assistant integration for blink and then have it also play the sounds.
… people are still blaming taco bell for taylor farms’ latest fuckup? even after taylor farms has fucked this up multiple times in the past and taco bell was the first to pull stuff that wasn’t safe to sell?
everyone thinks they can pull it off just fine, but believe me, it’s not a bad bet that your IT dept knows better than to bend to someone just dangerous enough to be a problem. it’s probably happened before and that’s probably why the policy is in place.
i have often found myself needing to manually update packages on distros like fedora or debian because i need a newer version that hasn’t landed in dnf/apt yet. arch doesn’t have that problem. ymmv, obviously, it’s not going to be an issue for everyone.
if you read the article instead of just the title, you’d just know it’s WSL instead of having to speculate.
the awkwardly-written title is referring to ubuntu via WSL (“on Windows 11”) as opposed to just running linux (“native”).
the article is pretty clear what it’s about, even the caption on the first image straight up says what i just wrote. you read it instead of just reading the title, right?
yeah but there’s also been plenty of times i’ve been just screwed on windows where linux would have let me just go fix it myself, so that’s still “linux is the best thing ever” for me.
yep, flock exists purely to get around the 4th amendment and the requirement to have a warrant.
the four horsemen of just needing something linuxy for my linux screenshots
never even heard of wmic. looked it up and it’s just been superseded by a new tool. this is barely even news, but neowin had to title the article like it’s a big deal.
not even particularly confusing, it’s just two inexperienced users being inexperienced. it seems like it’s only confusing people that know OpenOffice and LibreOffice have OS X versions but somehow don’t know that not everyone knows what they’re doing.
seriously. before we even get to state-sponsored media, i’d say a good half of the people i look up on wikipedia don’t have a “controversy” section when they absolutely should. they have been biased towards protecting the images of people and countries for quite a long time.
