  • I wouldn't necessarily agree with the creator's opinion that Kim is not to be faulted at all, but I do believe that out of everyone she has the least amount of fault.

  • Considering it's made by Orange Pi, I was going to say "Cool, another 'Android' gaming handheld" but it actually is x86.

    (Yes, I know the headline says it's running Manjaro. I figured it'd be running Waydroid or similar.)

  • I'm sorry, but I stopped taking the UK seriously on banning porn acts when it banned squirting and spanking. I just don't believe that prohibition of art is what will meaningfully impact instances of domestic violence.

  • Where did the user you're replying to say otherwise? Because it feels like you're just trying to shoehorn this topic into a different conversation. This is coming from someone that's staunchly pro-Palestine by the way, before you try to claim otherwise. If you want to make a difference here, log off and go join a protest.

  • No, I just don't want to explain to someone who's clearly just baiting. But you do you and pay 3x as much because it's made in america.

  • This isn't how you get non-tech gamers to* switch to Linux and honestly, this attitude needs to die. Do you want Windows to always dominate? Because this is how you get Windows to always dominate.

  • It's just jingoistic drivel, same as all of Trump's China crap. Implying the phone has better privacy because it's made in the US.

  • New users find the terminal very intimidating, I've seen that come up time and again. It's kind of the whole point of Bazzite.

    If you're already learning terminal to install software though, at that point you can use a distrobox, install whatever you want in it, and then export the application to your usual application menu. It'll launch the container in the background when you start the application, and shut it down automatically too. It's a little slower than a usual launch but it's still just a stripped down container so it's fine.

  • The implication that Chinese-made goods are less private. Also I'm pretty sure most people speculate that the Trump phone is just a rebranded one of these? Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

  • I did too, so, thanks, now I'm cackling at this racist bullshit:

  • Or, hear me out, you could install Bazzite and avoid all those terminal steps that are intimidating for new, non-tech savvy linux users.

  • Wait how do you tell it to go away? >~<

    (I'm on beta so might be a new issue)

    Edit: Edit icon also gone!

  • Dots!

  • that looks like a sponge x3

  • I mean the downvote button itself re-appearing.

    Yeah, because people downvote trans folks a lot as a form of transphobia.

  • I all of a sudden have downvote buttons that are useless to me, was that bc of a settings reset? I can't find the dang setting again!

  • I think you're seeing the wrong causation when it comes to enshittification. FOSS licenses prevent that sort of thing from happening. Linux is already, by far and away, the most popular server OS so consumers moving to it isn't going to make it worse.

    I dunno, maybe be less of a hipster bestie?

  • It seems like maybe it's a regional thing, as this is from Lenovo AU:
