It adds a lot of extra risk since each node is a constant radio beacon that is easily trackable.

Compared with handheld radio that broadcast and disappear.

If they shut the Internet and there is a decent meshtastic network they will jam that as well.

The game that this is within already targets children with expensive micro transactions. So pretending like this changes anything is kinda dumb.

If its ok to buy fortnite skins its fine to buy whatever a $45 brain rot skin gets you and its extra funny that it can be stolen.

Ok thats actually funny to add $45 mtx. If people wanna spend money on a meme game like that who cares. If parents leave their card hooked up to their kids account thats on them.

I dont see the issue here.

Its funny reading the positive reviews and seeing thay they couldn’t even bother spending more than 20mins playing.

Props for it being open source but it seems like a shit game. Needs more gameplay polish I doubt AI was the problem here.

I havent found an English misskey instance so I havent been able to really try it out. At a glance it seems similar to mastodon

Ive got ideas in my mind but its hard to put them into realistic ideas of a site.

Awful, one of the first things I disable along side 1 click folder opening.

Fun and weird ways of using the internet socially. Fediverse has the unique opportunity that you can build anything and automatically reach people. I’d like to see people really push the idea of what a social platform looks and acts like.

No

Microsoft executives have never used a copilot or any 365 tools and it shows.

Create is such a cool mod. I wish it was around back in the days when i played nodded Minecraft.

Oh yeah linux people have been building like crazy these past 10 years.

Sometimes the user experience is so slick its boring. But the great past of.linux is even when the usage is simple I can always tweak it or modify it to my exact liking.

On Mac it either works nicely or I’m fucked.

At Christmas the topic of what videos we watch came up and I was shocked to hear over half the people there mention watching AI videos. Its insane, these are decent intelligent people watching shit like that stupid weightlifting cat and bigfoot vlogging. It seemed mostly because they couldn’t get rid of YouTube shorts but still. The family members who used Instagram had it way worse they only consumed reels slop and didnt watch any long form video. It was really are “we are so cooked moment”.

There are versions that ship with the proprietary nvidia driver. The reason people have issues is the distros shipping the open version due to philosophy or distros shipping the open version for compatibility reasons. The open version is worse but at least it works the proprietary version doesnt support a lot of cards.

Thats not actually a problem. Every other OS has that problem.

Mac will never get 100% market share because there will always be people that hate their workflow. Linux can offer a tailored version to everyone’s liking.

What’s MintPass? It wasnt clear how to get a token and Im not entering a ph number.

Dual booting is fine. Microsoft destroying bootloaders is mostly a meme off a few bugs. Any distro that ships an up to date kernel and drivers is good. Fedora/Ubuntu. Bazzite is kinda weird for gamers because it just makes every problem harder to solve. If you never tinker then its fine but Bazzite feels more restrictive than windows without knowing how it works.

Curiosity and fate. I was perfectly happy on windows but I was listening to the WAN show and they were talking about their 30day linux channel. About 2 weeks before the first ep my windows install completely bricked itself after an update and I couldnt recover the key so I was forced to either pay for windows again or stay on the free version. I ended up installing linux mint and it was an awful experience. Out of the box mint is pretty crap hardware compat wise. I tried a few other distros before settling on Manjaro where everything worked out of the box and from there i started learning linux.

I plan to keep moving distro’s every few years just to see different ways of learning linux. Im currently on Nobara and fedora on my laptop. I think its probably the best linux distro out there(fedora). I’ve tried gentoo but I did not get it working to the same standard as nobara. I do plan to try gentoo again because I liked being able to pick all the stuff on my system and compiling it. I didnt like selecting all the useflags tho.

I really hate windows but I dont find teams to be that bad. Outlook at all the 365 admin tools are far far worse. Luckily we’re moving away towards google and atlassian.
