Zoom and Google Meets have both worked better for me.

Probably to avoid “Facebook” people (angry middle aged Republicans and easy to swindle old folks).

just the kind of person who enjoys being a contrarian

I thought the end was slightly passive aggressive. It wasn’t bad at all.

The other user did namecall first but I think we of the Linux community have to remember we used free software out of ethics. Things seem more rosy and user-friendly comparatively now but you have to remember the people who have the same ethics will “stick it out” regardless of the end user experience.

I thought your first post was slightly aggressive but this post goes too far. We should be preaching the ethics of free software first; while always remembering everyday ethics so we don’t end up as hypocrites.

From what I’m hearing, Microsoft wants to ban anti-cheat and plenty of other kernel-space software. They are possible security issues (along with all of Windows).

Hopefully, they would start a rival company. That would be fascinating to see.

I have a lot of respect for Sway and wlroots developers. They contributed heavily to the desktop Linux ecosystem. However, if you need to explain that much at first boot; you may overload some users. I’m sure tiling in Plasma will get better as they splify configuration and figure out better defaults.

It would be a pleasant surprise to see someone in his class receive a punishment (that is completely deserved) that is more than “a slap on the wrist.”

If the tiling is automatic and the users dont know how to change the size of the window manually (if that window manager allows that).

To the Kwin maintainer, I can see why tiling isn’t a bigger deal. It’s not exactly about copying Windows; it’s more about not confusing most users. We already see tiling features, I’m sure they will figure out (1) more powerful features or (2) a way for other people to build off what they have. Let them cook.

I do agree that Linux will never be a Windows clone. There’s no purpose in copying decades worth of bad decisions. Windows isn’t great, it’s just always compatible with hardware.

PayPal credit is an option. No interest if you pay it off in 6 months.

NexFundAI, as per information on the website, was marketed as redefining the “intersection between finance and artificial intelligence” and that its aim was to “create a cryptocurrency token that not only serves as a secure store of value but also acts as a catalyst for positive change in the world of AI.”

Even though it’s not obvious it was a government run “scam”/operation this website screams scam.

There’s always buying a third party remote service such as compustar for $700 (with install fees). The 1500 feet range from your key fob is included but you have to pay for the smartphone remote start (which can go on sale for $60 per year). Though these days, cars usually come with these features…

Edit: I meant that the $700 includes parts and labor costs

I believe you might have added the repo to Fdroid manually (which I think is the official way to update the app).

I can’t imagine a few developers maintaining Firefox without MILLIONS of dollars.

Are you suggesting to separate the modem/sensors from screen/battery/CPU/GPU? Probably like put the former in a watch and the latter kept as the same rectangle slab our phones are already in? That sounds neat.

Sign me up for the Kickstarter.

A tablet that rolled uplike an ancient scroll would be kind of cool. We already have roll up keyboards.

LG has a roll up screen. (prototype). More practical.

Wasn’t USB4 based on Thunderbolt 3?

To be fair, the goal is the same.

1. Not everyone needs the sheer CPU, power, and costs of a 40 GB/s connection.
2. Higher wattage chargers cost more
3. Not everyone needs a USB port that does video out (even if it should be standard now that virtually every new GPU should be compatible)
4. Even if the CPU and GPU support a feature, the OEM can use a cheaper controller
5. The controller firmware can lack support for a feature or be buggy

The USB forum can only solve points 4 and 5 without raising costs on the cheapest hardware.
