Wow, that’s a huge difference. I wonder if it’s just a niche case that fixes Terraria specifically, it would be nice to see more benchmarks on other games.

simple,

I’ve been following Cosmic and really looking forward to it. I love the idea of a Gnome-like desktop without Gnome-like design decisions.

simple,

Love the extension, but it’s a shame not all the alternate front-ends work. The Reddit ones stopped working a while ago, the fandom one is unreliable, lots of other ones are just a tad too slow.

simple,

This sucks. Tachiyomi was by far the best app for reading comics, none of the paid options come even close in terms of options or ease of use.

In-progress COSMIC apps: terminal, file manager, text editor, and settings (fosstodon.org)

COSMIC is a Wayland desktop environment for Linux that is written in Rust with Smithay and Iced. COSMIC applications are developed with the libcosmic platform toolkit, which is based on iced. They are cross-platform and supported on Windows, Mac, and Redox OS in addition to Linux....

simple,

Between this and KDE 6, it’s going to be a great year for the Linux desktop experience.

Oh boy here we go again

Distrochooser is not a good resource for newbies IMO. There are too many questions, many of which are misleading or hard to understand (NOBODY taking this knows what systemd is)

Many answers are misleasing: “I want a distro that is supported by game publishers” for example implies each distro has its own game compatibility, this is NOT the case.

And when you’re finally done it recommends too many distros, many of which are irrelevant, niche, or flat out not recommended anymore (PCLinuxOS?!?!)

When someone asks for a distro, please just run a random number generator to choose between ZorinOS, PopOS, or Linux Mint. If someone is only gaming, maybe include Nobara too.

simple,

The nomenclature is actually correct here, and a lot of other software use it, at least from everything I’ve seen. Release candidate means it’s stable and (usually) feature complete but could have bugs and needs testing before they launch it.

Prototype --> Alpha --> Beta --> Release Candidate --> Release

Humble bundle, fanatical, and isthereanydeal are my holy trinity of “Too poor to buy games on Steam”

Finally, Nausicaa of the valley of the water

simple,

Block the bots making those posts, there are only around 3 or so that keep spamming. Your feed will feel a lot better after.

simple,

Maybe you’re not subscribed to many places, I see it everywhere in my feeds. For what it’s worth I rarely see it on Lemmy outside of meme and politics communities.

simple,

Because it’s the most recent world event. Were you not seeing constant discussions about Russia/Ukraine when that first started?

simple,

What’s different about Lemmy compared to other sites? The Palestine/Israel conflict is the main topic point today. Everyone is talking about it everywhere, whether it be Reddit or Twitter. Are you up to date on the news?

food safety as well as human trafficking

Wow, that escalated quickly

simple,

Starting to get suspicious of this todd fellow, he doesn’t sound too spanish to me…

simple,

It’s a very beginner-friendly distro, similar in goals to Linux Mint but more modern. It’s stable, comes pre-installed with graphics drivers and important apps like Wine, a custom clean version of Gnome or XFCE, and having a lot of UX improvements like explaining what Wine is the first time you open an exe file, and providing popular alternatives for the app you’re trying to install.

There’s nothing brand new about it, it’s just really solid and I do recommend it as people’s first distro.

What inconsequential or surprisingly good thing can I get from Aliexpress?

Im curious as I usually use the site very occasionally to get certain electronic parts or order from PCBway like I just picked up some cheap but infinitely better than stock gps antennas for my LoRa T beams and im about to get a set of also still cheap but much better than stock 915mhz antennas but i kinda wanna throw some other...

simple,

Was just about to say, Aliexpress is weirdly known for having all sorts of retro or knockoff consoles. Many of them are really cool, too.

simple,

Well, at least Jaden Smith isn’t involved.

can I be a Free Software advocate but still use non-free software??

I’m asking this because one time, while browsing the GNU website, I noticed that some of the members’ emails had “gmail” on them!! And I asked myself how would that be possible?? And I think other members of the FSF had Gmail too. Why? Richard Stallman is against Gmail, so why would those memberse use it?? Would that...

simple,

Assuming this isn’t a troll post, why wouldn’t it be possible? Not everything has an open source alternative that’s nearly as good. I use Linux, I like open source, but I still use Discord and google services and occasionally a bunch of other closed source apps like Steam. Not everything ever made has to be open source.

Privacy is not just an illusion; it’s a delusion

Privacy is not just an illusion; it’s a delusion. Things like privacy statements and permission to use cookies are little more than sophisticated propaganda. If you think for a moment the Overlords cannot prepare a dossier on you within minutes that would make your mother faint and your father die of shame, you’re living in...
