Ooh, stumpwm. I never did get fully satisfied with that, compared to ratpoison, though I wanted to. Part of the reason I’m now considering NixOS not Guix next install.
It’s more of a joke. The tank in the picture is a T28 Super Heavy Tank . It was developed in the US and was ludicrously large. Not being ready for serial production at the end of WW2 the project was canceled. Only two prototypes were ever built.
Cultural appropriation is a bullshit concept predominantly invoked by people not belonging to a culture who are not able to make valuable contributions to society.
Some days most of what goes through my feed is Linux stuff, c/FuckCars, and hardcore communism and it feels like I’m in the wrong place. Most of the time I enjoy myself though.
“I’ll stop driving my car just as soon as Putin releases the open source drivers for my tank.”
– Lemmy, probably
“I’ve taken to calling it ‘GNU/Communism’, or ‘GNU slash Communism’, because…”
– also Lemmy, probably
“Why are Linux mascots like a Russian commune? Because degenerate capitalists come to our land and freeze while we huddle together safe in our car-less utopia!”
Yep, Debian was (is) a disaster to configure graphics with modern hardware. It was pure open source (even blocked firefox as the logo was copyright protected). They opened up with a non-free repo for hardware support, but already lost the ‘market share’ on the desktop to Ubuntu (and the load of forks with just a different windoemanager as default… instead of adding a desktop selection on install). Also Ubuntu is offered a lot as option on new hardware.
With snap I’m guessing users migrate back… (a very few at least)
Honestly Debian was one of the few that still kept a strong stance on freedom. Its sad that they went the opposite direction. I wish that they would of just broke the non-free into firmware and apps like they have now and then provided two isos. They could have a simple paragraph explaining free software with two links.
This was/is my main gripe with Beyond All Reason (open source rts game) there is no wiki or forums - for an outsider it looks like 98% of all development talk is done in discord.
Though they do have a good basic knowledge base on their website about the game units and mechanics (but I would love dedicated wiki).
I once dm’d the maintainer of an open source project who got kind of upset at me for not posting an issue in GitHub. I got it, it made sense and the guy explained that it was all about visibility.
