I’ve been using Ruffle (ruffle.rs) to play Flash games on mobile for a while. Nice to see I finally won’t have to jump through hoops to put Firefox Nightly into developer mode and force it to install an extension not in the pre-approved list. Maybe it’ll even work on websites this time like it does on desktop and I won’t have to copy Flash URLs into the extension page!
man I knew this was going to be rough when I saw him wearing a vegan shirt but god DAMN
“All Arch users are stupid vegan crossfitters who never shut up and contribute nothing to society and the only thing they ever care about is making their desktop look l33t and Arch is a horrible distro and did I mention all Arch users are stupid?”
Oh. My. Sides.
I switched from Ubuntu to Arch because I was sick of packages not compiling due to a complete lack of dependency management. I use stock KDE with zero frills and I spend most of my time hacking on open source projects. I never tell anyone what OS I use (unless they ask for recommendations for their new machine, and I’m prepared to also tell them why I personally prefer it) because they don’t care. I’m a normal guy who keeps myself to myself and hates the people who think a pretty desktop is more important than a usable system just as much as everyone else.
However, I use Arch, and Arch bad, which means I must be the most annoying person on the planet.
fair enough, but $12/yr for something I can do whatever I want with vs several grand once for an immutable monkey JPEG that i cannot do anything with except sell to someone else…
Hey at least then you own a domain name and all of its subdomains and can make them point whatever you want and host whatever you want out of them. When you buy an NFT you own one URL on an image hosting site, whose content you don’t even control.
Is there a single Lemmy client this doesn’t break? Jerboa lists your account creation date as “4 centuries ago”. Guess it can’t handle negative time deltas
Holy crap, dude, take a hint. Nobody wants to look at your racist strawman bullshit. This is the third time you’ve posted this and the third time you’ve gotten cussed out.
it always bothers me when people compare sudo to a game of Simon Says. It’s not waiting for you to say the magic word, it’s asking if you’re sure you want to do something that could potentially damage your system. It’s no more Simon Says than a Windows UAC prompt.
Ordinarily I wouldn’t make a big deal out of this, but teaching novice Linux users that their new OS just likes to play Simon Says with them and that if any command fails the solution is to change nothing and run it again with more privileges strikes me as a remarkably bad idea, and like a really easy way to trick newbies into running malware since “Linux doesn’t get viruses”
Wile I agree that it’s not Wayland’s fault, I also think that people acting like X11 was obsolete yesterday and everyone should immediately stop using it simply because Wayland exists, while that is still true, are not helping the situation any
