Yeah I tried Tumbleweed, but I really don’t like RPM-based distros. Mostly because I’ve been a Debian-based boi most of my life.

I question your life choices.

No idea. It could no longer unlock the LUKS encryption after rebooting from an upgrade. I had to work and just nuked it and started fresh. It happened on both my laptop and desktop after updating, so seems like a bad update.

I switched from Pop_OS! to KDE Neon because I wanted to try out the latest Plasma features. I was tired of GNOME’s bloat and needing an extension/Tweaks for basic functionality.

Then KDE broke screen sharing, bricked my install once by breaking LUKS disk encryption, and then it booted to a black screen on updating to the latest LTS…

So now I’m on Mint and all of my servers are on Debian because I want something that just works. Lol. No more distro hopping.

Hopefully this is sarcasm

Wow. It’s almost like we’ve been warning for years that putting backdoors into software, systems, and encryption would allow nefarious parties to exploit them.

I’m all for Sodium batts in cars, but my understanding is this battery tech is a different chemical composition than other Sodium Ion batteries. Most of those are not solid state AFAIK.

Actually exciting battery tech that isn’t just fluff. They actually built the thing and tested it, rather than it being a theoretical, not-easily-produced thing and it worked.

As others have said, this is for grid-scale and not EVs, but still exceptional progress and very important for energy storage.

That article screams “written by an AI”. It repeats itself so much, it’s like a kid trying to hit the 1k word requirement for an essay in high school English.

What do you mean “improved”? Ubuntu is based on Debian.

Ok bud. Sure thing.

As a straight dude, my first internal knee-jerk reaction was “this is such a stupid solution to a stupid problem”, but then my mental “Don’t be an asshat because not everybody is like you” guard rail kicked in.

Clearly this is a product for a market of people that it works for and I’m happy for them. Enjoy your neat keyboard thing, long nailed peeps.

There are plenty of “kids” movies and TV that are excellent for adults, too.

Listing a few:

1. Bluey
2. Most of Pixar
3. Adventure Time (after Season 1)
4. Star Wars Rebels/Clone Wars (again, after Season 1)
5. Shrek
6. Star Trek: Prodigy

This is not an exhaustive list, but you get the point.

Yes they do.

Repairable technology with encouragement to repair things that break by designing them to be fixable.

Open source technologies becoming the rule, rather than the exception (this is already the case in some ways, but I truly mean EVERYTHING).

Open Standards that make interoperability easier by removing walled gardens (iMessage, G-Sync, etc).

To be fair, Rocket League runs fine in Proton.

Also, to be fair…agreed. Fuck Epic.

I don’t trust any corporation. However, Valve has treated customers with respect and doesn’t try to bend us over. For that, I’ll keep buying from them.

However, I fear for the day Gabe Newell is no longer running the show.

If you want “Apple-like” look and feel, KDE Neon, Ubuntu, or Pop_OS! are good first Linux distros to start with.

I took the joke as Manjaro is a poor impersonation of a pure Arch install, so it’s half-assed like the users. It’s a meme, though, so don’t take it too seriously.

Also, if you use Manjaro, it’s just a joke and you’re still awesome for being a Linux user.

By this logic, Windows is like being kicked in the nuts by a Microsoft executive while they keep screaming “This is all because you didn’t adopt Windows Phone”.

Running macOS is like sticking your dick in the toaster and saying “it only costs me $69.99 each time I do it. It’s such a deal I’d be a fool not to”.
