Why does nobody here ever recommend Fedora to noobs? in c/[email protected]

The atomic updates are fantastic too. I have not crashed once in the two weeks of setup whereas before I would have a crash maybe 1-2 times per week.

I think I crashed it less than 10 times in 2 years of usage.

Further proof that what is illegal or not is volatile.

It's a company that wants google's spot in the ad business with a different approach, in the long run we'll have the same shit as Google if they succeed.

Do you think people would be okay with 'Recall' if Apple did it? in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Do I trust them? Sure, I guess, when it comes to privacy from other entities.

Do they not send everything directly to ChatGPT? Like, that logic is not broken with that for the Apple users?

Why the project have an Elon Musk xitter in the readme?

There’s not much reason to have never read it at this point, regardless of personal politics.

Well a simple reason is interest, is not my priority.

We’re not talking Atlas Shrugged or Das Kapital.

And I also want to read Capital, but again is not my priority in the near feature.

If Tankie means somewhat supporting what the URSS/China did, then YES.

I'm not communist, I've never read the manifesto but I'm more aligned with their ideals and the materialism philosophy than anything else, and I saw this quote that marked me. I paraphrase: "... the worst communist implementation was still better/on par than the best capitalist country".

Is it possible to use Linux without the command line? in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I think that the same principle applied to Windows/Mac, doing any administrator work without terminal seems impractical or impossible.

Arkenfox is definitely not unmaintained.

I played Genshin with it for about 6 months before I quit and it worked pretty well, the downside is that when the game is updated the launcher has to be updated too and that takes some time. I never missed the dailies though.

Guys, search for "an anime team" on github. You don't even need to configure Heroic/Lutris/Bottles.

Do you guys really believe that the Linux community will not find a way to play with waifus?

The Finals crashing Fedora 40 (lemmy.ml)

Since the lastest update on The finals we need to use Proton Experimental to avoid the anticheat randomly kicking Linux users, but since yesterday the game is crashing, sometimes in the menu. Sometimes the games launches and close automatically, with the lastest proton GE instead of Proton-experimental I had the following error:

LowLevelFatalError [File:.\Runtime/RenderCore/Private/RenderingThread.cpp] [Line: 938] Rendering thread exception: Fatal error!

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION writing address 0x00007f0ab4997000

With Proton Experimental the games crashs with a Wine error: "!status && vkCreateComputePipelines"

My command args on steam: PROTON_USE_EAC_LINUX=1 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 mangohud gamemoderun %COMMAND%

Anyone with a similar problem?

Cautionary tale about how the average person values private information (lemmy.ml)

I don't know if this scenario is the norm or is related to most people but I was so baffled when I found that I have to post it.

Here(Brazil) the most used app for communication is Whatsapp(first warning about low privacy concern) and a lot of people are members of cities/neighborhood/church groups, sometimes with hundreds of members. A coworker whose is part of said groups describe a common practice within the less tech savvy people: When finding a personal document(ID, credit card etc) they take photos of the document both sides without any censoring and spread to many groups as possible trying to find the owner...

Some of this documents have all relevant information to open a bank account or access banking apps and I don't even thinking about what a more tech/professional person could do with some of these information.

If they just ripped and thrown in the garbage was less harmful in any sense to the owner.
