The biggest selling point for Chromebooks was that they are A) Cheap and B) Simple/Fast. Education and Enterprise used them because they were easy to manage.

The cheapest Googlebook is $899 and it’s biggest selling features are a bunch of AI junk nobody asked for. They also cannot be managed yet in the Google Admin Console.

I expect this to flop something terrible.

It’s not the same thing, but CalyxOS will run on it and supports relocking the bootloader so you don’t have that security concern like with LineageOS.

That’s basically how Trump treats the regular US constitution, so why should this one be any different?

This list is not muffin approved.

I can’t play OoT. The controls are too terrible. Even the decomp project SoH still uses the god awful N64 control scheme.

Not if you store the excess you produce in sodium batteries

All good homie

While I share the sentiment, they do have a master toggle to turn all of it off.

As someone who works for a company that develops FreeBSD kernel code, your doing an awful lot of conflating between BSDs. You’re basically saying that ChromeOS and Fedora are the same because they use the Linux kernel.

If I could have generative AI make me a paradise world that I could escape to whenever I’m not making money to pay for the paradise world, I wouldn’t give AF. Also, Star Trek has Fusion and Matter/Anti-matter power generation that’s nearly entirely clean.

Unfortunately, the best our AI can do is make people with 6 fingers and write bad code while using all the water and electricity.

How do you figure FreeBSD is influenced by Apple? macOS and iOS don’t use FreeBSD. They use Darwin, which is a BSD fork, but not related to FreeBSD at all AFAIK besides they have some of the userland tools.

I agree, but I just find it hilarious that Microsoft reorganized and renamed 343 to Halo Studios, just to basically cut it’s head off.

So is Halo Studios/343 just…dead now? Seems like they’re dead if they don’t have Halo. Kind of in their name.

I know. I was pointing out that these people apparently worship it for it’s omniscience and intelligence, neither of which it has.

Not with the capability of omniscience, though, so…

These fucking people’s brains are cooked.

While I’m not the average person, my kids have never known anything but Linux or ChromeOS (because school). They game on SteamOS/Bazzite, they use a Linux laptop at home, and they use Android devices. Everything they use, somewhere inside deep down, is powered by Linux.

There is nothing wrong with using your distro’s app center. Often it will save you extra steps by updating things like Flatpaks as well, if you use them (or Snaps, if you’re an insane person).

Yum was used on way more than Yellow Dog Linux. CentOS, Fedora, RHEL, etc all did
