In regards to the site, all of them follow almost the same templates. Once you see a few, it becomes obvious

IMHO people expected a Pi that offered similar performance as a Mac M1 but with Linux as first class citizen

Still, it's a tool. Even if your tool learns to talk and to make decisions, it's still a tool, not a person. You're the person and the one responsible for the decisions you make ba…

I have a hard time finding a good battery. I bought an internal and external battery and the external one quickly started bloating.

Try Plop Boot Manager: https://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html It can boot from a floppy or from a CD drive, and it lets you chainload into a live usb even on old computers. I use…

It's tacky, but not the end of the world. It remins me of some gnome themes from 2005-2009. I'd choose that a thousand times over an ad filled start menu

The real culprit is the International Division of Labour. Some countries sell primary goods and other countries manufacture them. But it turns out it's the manufacturing industry t…

I have macOS shortcuts hot branded in my brain. I'd prefer to adopt a few of these programs than having to configure i3 and use ctrl for everything

The solution for that is to decide which period do you want to build support for. Trying to be binary-compatible with Tahoe may not be worth it. But you could make a distro binary-…

I interpreted it as: if you include all hobbies and games made by humans in history, I'm pretty sure most of them involve a set of cards made of paper, some others involving wooden…

The most absurd part is that you totally can access the home banking from your desktop PC with Linux, without any need of hardware attestation. Suddenly it's mandatory because the …

I agree with you on the Windows side. Linux is different. Decades of being tied to x86 made the OS way more coupled with the processor family than one might think. Decades of bugfi…

I found a video of a n64 port in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjG6_UY0ou4

Sometimes it does change and when that happens is for the worse. Some developers suddenly realize that X system is old, and then they try to redo it from zero. And when they do tha…

Question, why are you glad you didnt go for the PostmarketOS route? Do you think it's not worth it? Or that android is better in any way? Just curious

Liquid glass looks like some freeware teenager icon pack from gnome-look.org And we would have laughed at it.

Insulin control is about managing hunger more than a direct cause for weight. You don't even need to do keto or wacky "just meat" diets to handle insulin. Protein consumption preve…

But it's not. What you're referring to, is the basic concept of thermodynamic calorie in/calorie out. Yes, you can "just" reduce food and lose weight if you hit deficit numbers. Bu…

While it's not the explicit goal, it was because of technological superiority that most of us got into free software in the first place. There was a time where Linux worked great w…

I have an S23 base for that exact reason. A full flagship phone at 6.1" size

The idea behind the parent comment is not that they can't compete, but they are specifically made not to. Sort of a puppet browser made only for proving the court that the giants a…

Typically low level code and some manual fiddling with memory by asuming page size. Everything's ok until some obscure library suddenly segfaults without any error

I wonder if these studies also take in account indigenous languages and its native speakers. People from Paraguay speak both Spanish and Guarani. A lot of people from Mexico speak …

I wonder how much stress growing a whole limb imply on the body. Would it male you prone to get cancer, since all that replication "depleted" our stem cells and brown fat reserves?…
