Also, a Bluesky and Mastodon user, although I use Mastodon significantly more. Both have upsides and downsides. Mastodon's onboarding experience has improved, but it's still worse than Bluesky's. Also, the fact that Mastodon doesn't federate likes is honestly very strange. It makes the platform look dead at first glance, which really hurts first impressions.

I still prefer Mastodon, federation is great and I've had an easier time finding people to follow there. Bluesky's feature of following community made feeds is really cool though.

Afaik it was there when I joined over a year ago. Discord hides some channels by default now when you join a server, that could be it. It is always a shame when a FOSS project uses Discord more than Matrix, makes me way less likely to interact with the community.

Good thing that's not what happened then. They banned him for violating their code of conduct, which is completely valid of them.

The discord does have a general chat, as well as a memes chat.

They did not imply that at all

Yeah the tooling sucks. The only tooling I've liked is Poetry, I never have trouble installing or packaging the apps that use it.

A lot of past Nintendo consoles have made pretty major changes to the hardware and operating system compared to other console manufacturers, which makes backwards compatibility less likely. The Wii U basically booted into the Wii operating system to play those games. I imagine getting Wii U games running on the Switch wouldn't be the easiest thing to do, though certainly not impossible. We don't know a ton about what changes the Switch successor will make, so it wasn't outside the realm of possibility that it would be the same.

I know quite a few people that have quit through vaping, and even if they hadn't, vapes are definitely better for their health than cigarettes.

They make vape cartridges that are used with a reusable battery. If disposable vapes were banned, they would become the more common option which is definitely better.

Fedora has pushed for the change by rebranding their immutable distros as Fedora Atomic Desktops, and these are likely the most popular immutable distros. Bazzite's homepage also describes the distro as atomic, but never mentions the term immutable.

Atomic in software refers to an operation that cant be interrupted because it happens in one step. This one of the big selling points of atomic or immutable distros. Your system will not be left in a broken state by cancelling an update because updates do not take multiple steps, unlike traditional distros.

Atomic in software refers to an operation that cannot be interrupted, like the updates in these distros. Immutable is a more confusing term, as it leads users to believe that cannot control parts of the system, when in reality these distros still have tools to do so.

I'd argue dedicating your personality to hating something is much weirder than being a fanboy of it, especially when that thing is a piece of technology nobody is forcing you to use.

Looking at the taskbar, they're using Kitty which has tabs and splits, and they have a browser running.

The gaming mode is still the Steam Client. It's just the big picture client which has built in additional features when used on a Steam Deck.

Lawyers tend to be honest to the people they're being paid by.

As they said in the article, they are just listening to their lawyers. I would assume those lawyers are correct.

They've been focused on privacy for 10 years, before it was nearly as marketable.

You can get very high end office chairs incredibly cheap if you looks used. It's not hard to all to find Steelcase Leaps and Herman Miller Aerons under $300 on Craigslist, eBay, FB Marketplace, or used office supply stores. I got my Steelcase Leap for $220 and it's been going strong for over 5 years now.

This is a weird thread. Lots of complaints about lock in and companies managing your keys, both of which are easily avoidable, the exact same way you'd do so with your passwords.
