  • You’re talking to a bunch of geeks. There’s nothing wrong with the default pixel launcher. I used it for years. Most of these people have a butt ugly home screen and all kinds of ridiculous customizations that no one else has time for.

  • Well yeah, what did you expect? The fediverse is brand new while goodreads is at least 15 years old (without looking it up). I have people from high school on my friends list there and I’m in my late 30s.

    It goes without saying that they have more users and therefore more reviews. That stuff doesn’t happen overnight.

  • Steam numbers are completely meaningless. There’s absolutely no way SteamOS outnumbers Ubuntu even if we limit this comparison to desktop installs. Ubuntu’s been around for a very long time and many of its users wouldn’t show up on Steam because they don’t game.

  • They also created TypeScript which is a huge improvement over js imo. And with C# you can use Mono, so you really aren’t locked into MS automatically.

    Plus, they made VS Code free. I hate MS but they do make solid tools for developers.

  • It’s hilarious how utterly delusional you are lol. Yeah you go ahead and keep telling yourself that an oil industry conspiracy is pushing renewables over nuclear and not the fundamental economics of the situation. Nuclear isn’t and never will be a realistic solution to climate change.

    Also— your own article states that the fastest nuclear reactors were built in Japan. Well guess what, that’s bizarr because Japan skirted all kinds of safety practices to build their reactors and that’s how you get garbage plants like Fukushima. All of the new reactors getting built now are planned for ten years or more, which your article also confirms.

    And no, you are blatantly wrong that only paranoia is getting in the way of nuclear. Countries aren’t building nuclear because it makes no fucking sense when you can generate the same amount of power for far cheaper with renewables. Renewables are also serving as the baseline power source all around the world and they do the job just fine. Nuclear isn’t needed.

    It’s obvious you’re just another rude, know-it-all douchebag who is actually far more ignorant on this topic than you realize. Straight to my blocked list.

  • I'm very sick of hearing about nuclear from Reddit/lemmy. If it was a realistic, affordable solution we'd be doing it. But it's not. It just seems like it is to the layman.

    There's a reason the market and governments went all in on renewables and it isn't just paranoia about nuclear accidents. Building a nuclear plant takes ten years minimum and it's incredibly expensive, and has a lower margin for profit. In that amount of time governments/companies can build tens of thousands of renewable energy stations.

    The issue of waste from solar is real, but the fact is even with that waste it's done far more to reduce emissions than nuclear ever has or ever could.

  • It's so much better than it used to be though. There's been a lot of real progress and there's more interest than ever in creating a viable Linux consumer-grade desktop among foss developers and even corporations.

    I'll grant you it's definitely not there yet for non-techies. But I do think we'll get there eventually and I wouldn't have said that 5 years ago.

  • He pulled it from nowhere because tankies are incapable of nuance, especially if you hold an even mildly dissenting opinion. You're either with them or against them, there is no in-between. It's ironic how much they share in common with actual fascists.
