Yeah sadly, whenever you say PC / Laptop people associate it with windows. You buy one of these, its windows. People dont even know what else is out there.

Just dont look at Ubisoft. 💀
Ad/promotion appeared in offline games whenever you opened the map…
However, if they say ‘okay guys, we heard you, one more year of support!’. This way they could farm so much PR points its insane.
Cant guess which one they will choose tbh.
Yeah, the start menu ads were / are ‘only’ in the beta build.
Yeah, Codeberg’s UI is almost the same as github, its good tbh.
P.S. i came to the conclusion that codeberg/github UI is good, when i went to sourcehut. Holy crap, my mind couldnt comprehend what am i looking at. (Could be a skill issue tho)
For windows you dont need to buy it, you can activate it using microsofts own tools, its on github (dont remember its name right now.)
As for linux, i would recommend openSUSE Tumbleweed, it is fresh, and the best part about it is that whenever you update the system, it creates a snapshot, so if the update had some kind of undesired sideeffects, you can just startup the old version. (These snapshots only effect the system’s packages, your apps will keep their state iirc. My brother uses tumbleweed and he is very content with it.)
Holdup, what did the tumblr CEO do? Havent heard about that, im curious.
Yeah, if there is one thing that windows 11 does well is looks. I think its fancy.
So, this means Proton is not private either? Any product you pay for cannot be private?
There is a difference between anonimity and privacy.
Yeah kind of, but the CEO needs to learn that not everyone will like their products, you cant convince everyone.
The person said that they dont want to engage with the discussion, then the CEO should have just let it be.
I actually dont understand why news and such written blogs stopped with sponsors. I dont want tracking pixels, autoplaying videos and all that bullshit. Have a static small paragraph with a referral link, thats it.
For example on adventofcode, there was a static ad for spotify job application. This is an ad which i can advocate for. Creator of the site gets money, the ad is not intrusive, and it targets programmers who would just naturally navigate to this site.
Yeah same. I still use youtube for example, but not gmail, google search or windows. These three are huge, in gathering info.
Yeah, like people say ‘I already use windows/google search/whatever, so it does not matter if i switch email provider/ whatever’.
What?? I so hate this mentality: ‘If you cant eliminate / change it fully, then why bother?’ Bruh, small steps can go such a long way man…
Yeah, but until then we can support these projects. Even a one-time 10€ donation can go a huge distance, or monthly 1€ even. These add up.
P.S. To any open source devs, please allow us to donate yearly recurring 10-15€! There are so many projects to support, but i have to live from something as well.
If its a laptop, then it has a built-in UPS as well. Plus extra peripherals are not needed either!
Even if you agree with something, you can play the ‘devils advocate’ and say what is wrong. You need to look at both sides.
I for example despise Apple. But i gotta admit their phones are pretty good if you just want a smartphone. Or if everything you have is apple, then the ecosystem is really nice.
Try to understand the other side, and be the opposing person. So these conversations can happen.
Stop it! You make android look good, oh no!

But imagine, if you could just press win+number and then go to the exact workspace you want! Which KDE Plasma allows you to do.
I seriously cant get used to using win+ctrl+arrows. If i could change this, and with powertoys windows would not be that bad.
Yeah, this extension is crazy good. It works as if it was native.
Buddy, this is a linux post not a windows one
