Gentoo goes Binary (packages) (www.gentoo.org)

To speed up working with slow hardware and for overall convenience, we’re now also offering binary packages for download and direct installation! For most architectures, this is limited to the core system and weekly updates - not so for amd64 and arm64 however. There we’ve got a stunning >20 GByte of packages on our mirrors,...

java,

But why? Isn’t building from sources the whole point of Gentoo?

java,

You forgot to describe what’s your problem.

to the point of being denied service

Yes. Spotify blocks my account if I’m using VPN, ChatGPT asks to solve ridiculous captchas (on a paid account!). It’s crazy. Reddit blocks access if you’re on the VPN and not logged in.

Help me choose my mobile browser

As per title, Help me choose a browser for android I have non rooted device. After all the researches I found best for me would be 1: Mull but with Some way for knowing which site have saved any data on my device (Maybe by extension or some defined page like about:config type) But as per my research I do not found any such...

Imagine you have lots of toys, like your favorite games and cool apps on your tablet or phone. If you had to update them manually, it’s like having to go to each toy, take it apart, fix anything that’s broken, and then put it back together every time there’s a new version or improvement.

Now, think about having a special toy store for your toys. When you go to the store, they already know about any new cool features or fixes for your toys. All you have to do is ask the store to update your toys, and they make sure all your toys get the latest and greatest stuff without you having to do anything.

So, having a store for apps is like having a magical place where all your toys can be fixed and improved automatically, without you having to do the hard work of updating each one by yourself. It saves you time and makes sure your toys are always the best they can be!

java,

I’m glad that wizards keep pushing boundaries of magic.

java,

Wow, it’s even easier to find on the screen. Thanks!

java,

Is this a preview of 2024? I don’t like it!

What makes you think the result will satisfy your needs? It probably wont, and it definitely won’t satisfy the needs of many other people. We have two major DE based on different toolkits, following different philosophies, having different looks and feels. This is good. You can choose. Or you can pick another DE or WM. That’s why Linux is so attractive.

java,

Turns out when you trap people in a hellhole, they start to resent the people who put them there, and laud the people who seem to be trying to change that shitty status quo.

Given that Hamas is one of the key reasons why this place is a hellhole, these words don’t explain why the support for Hamas is allegedly raising.

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

java,

Use whatever you want, why do you care about what feelings other people have towards Ubuntu?

java,

But that was never the subject of the discussion. The USSR, and the Russian Empire before it, did successfully conquer Eastern Europe. That’s a historical fact. Whether you agree that this conquest made that land rightfully theirs is another topic, in which I have no interest.

java,

To end the discussion, just stop replying lol.

java,

tried to conquer eastern Europe, failed

How so if it was indeed occupied for years?

java,

good battery life (I don’t want to worry about)

Define good battery life.

java,

I’m not qualified enough to argue, but I wouldn’t trust Durov. He’s a competitor, after all. And he has a history of questionable decisions.

java,

Curiosity pushed me to try Linux roughly 15 years ago. Today it’s simply the best option for me. But I approach it as a user, I don’t posses any deep knowledge about how it works.

java,

But will you train an LLM with it??

java,

If it was just for game OSTs and other less common music. Over time I noticed that my playlists on streaming services start losing songs, mainstream music. Sometimes this is because an artist leaves one label for another, but sometimes I have no explanation. And I don’t even notice that until “hey, I haven’t heard that song in years… wait, where is it? where are these albums??” It’s frustrating. This pushed me to pirate music again.

java,

I think if you have no answer, it could be that NixOS doesn’t solve any problem for you. In effect, it’s not better. Don’t buy into social media hype. It’s just a tool like any other.

java,

I’m In the need of an offline calendar and gallery now that simplemobiletools got sold off

This doesn’t sound reasonable. Why can’t you keep using existing apps? Are they underdeveloped and you’re waiting for some features? If so, it’d be helpful to see what these features are in order to suggest a suitable replacement.

java,

I’m stupid. Last week, my rss reader lost all my subscriptions. Or so I thought. I’ve just noticed that I was logged in under a different account…

java,

If that was true, we would be on Wayland for years. But in reality, it proves minor improvements versus heavy investments to migrate from X. And that’s why it’s still a fetish and not a standard.

java,

That’s an improvement. But risk = impact * probability. Realistically, the probability of installing such an app from repos is virtually non-existent. My point is that Wayland comes with some improvements, but I’ve been seeing comments like the one I replied to for almost 15 years, as if Wayland will revolutionize Linux desktop. It won’t. Probably most users won’t see any difference, except for bugs caused by the migration.

java,

I don’t understand this fetish. Every day I read about problems people have with Wayland, while I’ve been using X for the past 15 years without any issues.
