AMD has better hardware support because they are more active in contributing than intel. Also, they have overtaken intel in terms of efficiency (price per watt, price per Hz)
Lol, it was my GOTO specifically because it doesn't require a login and I can send it to my parents who need minimal clicks to enter the room. I even have family that doesn't have a github, facebook, nor google account, so they won't be able to join.
Amazing move Jitsi.
Earlier this year we saw an increase in the number of reports we received about some people using our service in ways that we cannot tolerate. To be more clear, this was not about some people merely saying things that others disliked.
What kind of "illegal things" were they doing? Say it, so that we can comprehend. Make it make sense.
Adobe applications is the only thing on your list that's really really non-Linux. It just won't work. If there's a web version of it, then it will, but desktop versions, absolutely not.
You can dual-boot: when you turn on your computer, you'll have the option to boot into linux or windows. You could boot into windows to do your adobe suite stuff and into linux for everything else - many games work on linux (if that's what you're into). Just check https://www.protondb.com/
There are a lot of dual-booting tutorials out there. Linux is just a core component of the operating system, but the things on top like desktop environment, window management, package/app management, configuration manager, default apps, look and feel, etc. are bundled together into "distributions". For beginners, probably Linux Mint and Ubuntu are your best bet.
You can even look up hardware compatibility using https://linux-hardware.org/?view=searchcomputer . But the easiest is to pick Linux Mint or Ubuntu, find a dual-booting tutorial, backup your windows data, and install the chosen distro.
Note: Linux phones are notoriously insecure (source) but please correct me if you know better
A few points
Operating systems like Android and ChromeOS have full system mandatory access control, every process from the init process is strictly confined.
Android uses SELinux for mandatory access control as per their own docs
As part of the Android security model, Android uses Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) to enforce mandatory access control (MAC) over all processes, even processes running with root/superuser privileges (Linux capabilities)
As for ChromeOS, it's built upon Linux and that blurred line between Chrome and Linux is being completely removed -- hello Linux And ChromeOS aka LACROS
To make matters worse, some system daemons are not designed with permission control in mind at all. For example, PulseAudio does not have any concept of audio in or out permission.
PulseAudio is due to be replaced by PipeWire which
was designed with a powerful security model that makes interacting with audio and video devices from containerized applications easy.
There's also Wayland, which is being written to replace X11. It has better security
Wayland isolates the input and output of every window, achieving confidentiality, integrity and availability for both.
While it's true that many apps aren't designed with security in mind, flatpak and snap packages have their portals API. The author did mention that they are underutilized, but that's slowly changing.
Additionally, immutable distros (nixOS, Fedora silverblue) do exist, which make it quite hard for unauthorised applications to modify root partitions since they are mounted as read-only. Mobile NixOS is still in its infancy, but it's being worked on.
In conclusion, security on linux isn't hopeless, there are solutions being worked on, and improvements in linux phones will benefit all desktop users, unlike distros like Android and ChromeOS that build custom solutions that aren't contributed back to the community.
If they take along artificial wombs and artificial seeders, wouldn't it be able to thrive with even fewer people? I assume this is based on natural procreation, not artificial...
The disposal of organic waste poses an environmental challenge as it emits large amounts of greenhouse gasses including methane and carbon dioxide, which contribute to climate change,
I mean, yeah, but isn't it carbon neutral? The coffee comes from the earth, returns to the earth. And couldn't coffee also be used for biogas?
natural sand as the particulate’s rough exterior provides more surface area for water and cement to bind
What further puzzles me is how they decided to use coffee. Surely there are many other waste products that have the required structure. Is coffee the first thing they tried?
No no no. Not everything has to be a copy. Inspired by is better. Hopefully Eugen doesn't submit to tweeters trying to copy their shithole on the fediverse.
They were pretending to be afraid of the "gay agenda" when we had to be afraid of the conservative agenda. These guys are nuts.
This reads like a copy of the steps taken by the NSDAP in Germany in the 1930s
