@FortniteLinux @phoronix It is it many ways, yet oddly enough every Windows user I know who has tried Ubuntu has absolutely hated it because of Gnome. They usually end up being perfectly fine with Linux once I give them a KDE distro.

@phoronix Might have to start calling it the "Windows of Linux distros" lmao.

Ubuntu Linux Will Begin Landing AI Features Throughout The Next Year

@LundukeJournal I agree. Especially on the last point. They will exempt open source this time and come back for it later. When they do - no one will give a shit about open source.

The concept of government mandated Age / ID Verification on Operating Systems is appalling.
The idea of carving out an exception ONLY for “Open Source” software is EVEN WORSE. It is morally repugnant.
“Age Verification on Operating Systems” is either right… or it’s wrong. If it’s wrong (and it is), it’s wrong for every computer user.
…
“First they Age Verified the iOS users, and I did not speak out — because I was not an iOS user.
Then they Age Verified the Mac users, and I did not speak out — because I was not a Mac user.
Then they Age Verified the Windows users, and I did not speak out — because I was not a Windows user.
Then they Age Verified me, the Linux / Open Source user — and there was no one left to speak for me.”

After five months of (on and off) development, I'm glad to announce niri v26.04! It's packed with features like window blur (of course), mouse cursor in window screencasts, rendering optimizations, and more.
Enjoy the release notes: github.com/niri-wm/niri/r…

@FrameworkPuter I don't care how good the new trackpad is, I just can't do it. I'm sorry. I like what I like.

The web is disappearing 🕳️
According to a Pew Research Center report, 26% of pages from 2013-2023 are no longer accessible.
But that’s not the whole story.
In a new study published in Internet Archive's book, VANISHING CULTURE, data scientists working with the Wayback Machine have found:
16% have been restored through the Wayback Machine.
56% are preserved before they disappear.
Preservation is the remedy for cultural loss.

@RobuxTRex @ProtonPrivacy I use Distroshelf to install their Debian packages.
but yeah, aside from actual Arch or AUR packages, I'd settle for an official Flatpak.

@ProtonPrivacy could you please please please support other linux distros (e.g. arch) OFFICIALLY instead of making us rely on random AUR packages...

@murderbymodem @theo @FrameworkPuter @Lenovo @HP I have this and it's amazing, works with almost anything. The clitmouse is by far the best non-mouse, non-trackball pointing device. Instant transition from typing to pointing is amazing, drag and drop gesture is way easier to perform than touchpad.

Day 263 of being under investigation for a non existent crime after @SEGA colluded with @CityPolice to raid my house, steal my consoles, fabricate evidence and attempt to frame me for a crime to cover up their own internal negligence. All now face default judgment on Human Rights violations and multiple individuals face personal liability lawsuits for misfeasance in public office.
I eagerly await the return of my lawfully owned property.

@sumibunnii I had a manager at my old job who said that in response to basically any issue. It really is what it is.

CachyOS just took the #1 spot on ProtonDB. Arch Linux held it since 2021 🚀
Thank you all for your support!

@SlawSimulation @sumibunnii Not possible as Pokopia and the other newly announced Pokemon games are Switch 2 exclusives. The real answer is to wait for Palworld: Palfarm as it will hopefully be cheaper than $70 lol

@sumibunnii Use the switch emulator and pirate the game if you have a pc
