I think we might have to get used to the idea of paying for software again, if we want to sustain the development of good quality, privacy respecting products

Honestly, at this point, what do those pledges even matter? Integrity is not worth much in politics nowadays. People will just vote whomever makes the bigger promises.

I do understand the reaction somewhat though... It's these kinds of news that gets people hyped for a game and leads to the sort of pressure that might make a launch fail as it did with Cyberpunk

My QR Code Scanner app can recognize Qr codes in all sizes and from many angles but it won't ever scan the ones without border, like if I'm on dark mode on some websites

The headline makes it seem way more clear than the issue actually is. As for me, I took issue with the bill potentially preventing more green energy projects which we are severely lacking, aside from hydro. Though I am very unhappy with the argument that we need to not block economic development since I am all for regulations in that sector, just not sweeping ones.

I think so too

Everything is bloat mfs be like:

Yes, presumably on hardware that's just a bit too old or rare. Might be unlucky as Linux compatibility isn't high up on OEMs lists

I had similar stories getting Wireless Networking to work on some devices before. Good thing is, there are drivers for most, if not all, default hardware interfaces directly in the kernel nowadays and if a device has any sort of popularity it will be supported before long if it isn't out of the box.

Isn't that Fugu?

Same. I think those were streaming sites?

So they were trying to patch systems that use GRUB for Windows-only installs? What a load of BS. Why would anybody install GRUB to boot only Windows with that? Or am I overlooking something?

Furthermore, if GRUB has a security issue, they should've contributed a patch at the source instead of patching it themselves somehow. I'm a bit stunned at the audacity of touching unmounted filesystems in an OS patch. Good thing Windows still doesn't include EXT4 and BTRFS drivers because they might start messing with unencrypted Linux system drives at this rate

I know nuclear isn't ideal but to rule it out completely while the alternative for stable baseline power is still coal and gas seems problematic to me

And in the meantime Mozilla keeps making worse decisions, too

Don't you guys know about Jacob Ava?

I did as instructed and will find out if it was a mistake or not but so far it seems okay. But I guess switching bak is just as easy as swapping repos

I wonder if I can make my existing Thumbleweed installation a Slowroll one instead, without borking up everything

Yes… blurru

Isn't it banks, that generate most of the currency, especially by lending out money that comes from account holders funds?

I agree, but our tester is a bit lazy I suppose
