When I worked on auto-maker on the head units, they were integrated on the chip, the ones that had a sim slot where you can insert and extract it were the ones for development. Recent cars, their GPS and screen media menus uses the Linux inside the modem chip.

Unless you get an expensive car, I think they do that to reduce expenses. Expensive cars have dedicated CPU for that, but they still communicate with the head unit for online data.

WhatsApp will be never private and secure, while Telegram will be never private. 😁

No one said the opposite, while on WhatsApp they had several vulnerabilities that allowed attackers to get the user phone control.

An example: thehackernews.com/…/new-whatsapp-bug-couldve-let-…

But there were many more vulnerabilities or “features” that WhatsApp allowed attackers or governments to get into user data. While I haven’t read anything about against Telegram security.

Well, if you are new to Linux, it is better if you just install new distros to try them, I would go to Arch Linux as it’s the cleanest distro, I could install multiple DE without issues, but then it’s a bit mess of packages, also it’s harder to install, you need to type archinstall and understand their options. I have a desktop and laptop and I always use the laptop for testing, if you copy the ~/.config folder, you can restore all your applications settings (just copy the app settings you are using), ~/.mozilla to restore your browser as you had it before the wipe and some more settings are under ~/.local. I also copy my ~/.zshrc because I have a custom prompt, configs, add-ons, alias…

I'm so frustrated rn.

I have been distro hopping for about 2 weeks now, there’s always something that doesn’t work. I thought I would stick with Debian and now I haven’t been able to make my printer work in it, I think I tried in another distro and it just worked out of the box, but there’s always something that’s broken in every distro....

My current work forces me to work with Apple (because they are lazy to prepare Linux for working), I have been on Linux for almost 10 years and I really want to quit my Job because of this stupid Apple laptop, it is trash, the DE is stupid, and I have many issues (with settings, login items, alacritty not working… yabai stopped to work without any reason…) that stresses me a lot… So good, I love my work and I still enjoy working, but the macOS is pure trash.

Now, gamers will want to play on Linux for the low latency on online games.

@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

I always download my games before playing them. I don’t know what you mean here.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

But is that related to my comment? I don’t understand why he’s talking about downloading games via P2P.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, that would make sense as opening TCP connections is not really viable for low latency, hahaha.

Gnome is coded with JavaScript (lmao 🤣) so yeah, I Think you are right.

EDIT: Actually, even if JavaScript and other languages have this issue, the value 1.7518248558044434 has not this issue. There is another reply that explains it and makes totally sense. But still pretty lame to know the desktop runs with JavaScript. (Yeah, I hate Gnome)

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

Okay, but still needs JavaScript, they are slowly trying to remove or improve it. But it is a fact that it also runs on JavaScript. 🤣

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, on their git says 46% of the code is JavaScript: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell

That’s pretty much, almost half of the code.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

There is less than 4% more code in C than JavaScript. That’s pretty much, many features on the gnome-desktop is using JavaScript too, like gestures and mouse events.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

JavaScript isn’t the best language to make a desktop interface in my opinion, it can be very efficient, but you can see in bugs (at least in the past) how bad performance it had, and they needed to re-factor it to replace to C or improve the JavaScript. I’m just laughing and making fun of it using JavaScript, not saying it is slow, Gnome is pretty fast nowadays.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

I see, thanks for the explanation.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

Mostly C because you need to type more C code to do the same with JavaScript, so I suppose most of the logics are using JavaScript. Plasma desktop has 2% JavaScript (invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop), it’s not comparable. 🙂

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

No one here said GNOME desktop is mostly JS.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

But at least the desktop itself isn’t using JavaScript that much like Gnome do. Show me the repo with the % to see what are you referring.

Aradia,
@Aradia@lemmy.ml avatar

Well, I started this thread saying it runs on JavaScript, and I mean that they need JS for most of the interactions with the desktop, like gesture or mouse events. 😞 Even if most of the code is C, we all know we need to write much many lines of code of C to do the same with JS, so most of the logics on GNOME is computed by JS. We need some rust here. 🦀 🦀 🦀 🦀

Actually, I always end up using ADB tools to get files or photos, you can get recursive files to get them all. I do it even with people that tries to get photos from their Windows machines, so I don’t think it’s a problem with Linux neither. This is the best way to get safely and correctly all your files.
