I've used Cachy for about 2 months, having used Arch for a long time prior to that. It just feels a lot faster (anecdotally) than Arch. I don't tend to play a lot of games either, …

For anyone getting late to the thread, they're reinstating TSME. They shouldn't have had to reinstate it to begin with, but it's good to see the pressure campaign worked. https://a…

just now seen one such comment in this thread get flagged/removed but the Gaza genocide is always conspicuous by its absence in these discussions; conspiracy of silence on this nee…

the default is still the AI'ed version though...

the most nefarious thing about Gmail/Google Accounts is how it's not only the default SSO option, but for many AI services, notably even Chinese-owned ones like Deepseek and Kimi, …

It was always really obvious but that recent full-throated-fascist manifesto has left no doubt. One thing Palantir have going for them is this deranged movie-villain-style transpar…

I hate the BBC so much - "controversial privacy tech" "E2EE ... the best way to protect conversations from .. even repressive authorities" "End-to-end encryption has been criticise…

Fair to assume trillions of the physical metal weren't simultaneously dumped onto the market in the past day; this is entirely ETF driven therefore it's also safe to assume there i…

Installed it on a TP-Link to replace my ISP router a couple days ago. I'm super impressed with how it needed almost no config (except to manually activate the Wifi and to set a pas…

It's less a Wayland story imo and more a tiling WM story.

The reason it's wild is someone has managed to make a tiling WM that isn't just usable and nice, but actually created incredible hype around it, and made people want to give it a c…

The real story with Omarchy is Hyprland. Feels like the first time the desktop Linux is not only fun but that there's a far better case being made for switching to desktop Linux ov…

just a fyi for anyone looking for a neat little kanban board, gitea has kanban built-in into the projects feature. (obviously lacks really fine-grain customization that would be fo…

didn't use sway for long enough to form an opinion. it did feel kind of workhorse-ish and boring which in hindsight is probably better. I was curious to see what I would get on a f…

I've been using hyprland for about 6 months now, it's undeniably performant, buttery-smooth even but there are still a lot of paper cuts there - I have a feeling this will piss qui…

it's now a case of choosing between who you least care about spying on you - think I'll choose a Chinese phone next time, at least they're not currently engaged in genociding child…

They're really starting to build the case for self-hosting videos through Peertube
