Apparently a few coop banks somewhere are adopting/have adopted taler, so hopefully it takes off.

History tells us that 85% of these people will move to Windows 11 despite what they say.
The interesting rub this time is the hardware. There’s tons of still powerful and useful CPU’s in use today that don’t support Windows 11’s TPM 2.0, so I wonder if that will push a few more people to Linux than when Windows 7 was EOL.
Everyone loves to masterbate to how “bad these companies are”, dude you CHOSE them.
I think the point of the video is that there are backroom deals that secure Microsoft being chosen. The new mayor of Munich is a clear example of conflict of interest. Microsoft is clearly lobbying the French government as well.
The OG comment is referencing the body of this post, which are stats from the website. The website is using outdated steam stats, the comment is pointing that out.
The comment you replied to that was pointing that out was not corrolating the steam stats as general linux stats, only pointing out that the linux userbase on steam has grown since those outdated stats.
I think the original comment in this chain was mentioning that the stats from the statcounter website were using really outdated data for the percentage of Linux users on steam, I don’t think they were relating that stat to overall Linux usage.
Steam’s hardware survey reports 1.94% of their userbase is using Linux, beating Mac OS, which is at 1.38% respectively.
Not to mention plenty of Linux users don’t game at all
The Steamdeck is pushing the needle on that, creating a bunch of Linux gamers with some not even realizing it.
Please do! But what channel are you referring to?
The LiMux project in Germany had some shady stuff going on in the background. Microsoft almost certainly bribed the new conservative government to switch everything back to Windows. There was a great documentary about it from DW that interviewed some whistleblowers, but I can no longer find it. However, Quidsup on Youtube did a good video encapsulating the course of events.
EDIT: I was able to find the documentary by searching the old title in German, which brought up the original German version, and from there found the English translation!
Appreciate the info! I’ve been interested in immutable distros, but that would be a pretty big issue for my main PC.
Does distrobox alleviate those issues?
Phrononix’s forum is known for having some of the most toxic individuals in the open-source ecosystem, with flame wars, pointless complaining and arguing happening usually starting within the first 10 comments.
I have no idea why or how it got so bad there specifically, but it’s bad. Though oddly enough, in-between all the negativity, will be developers of major systems, like AMD driver engineers, calmly talking with other big movers in the industry.
I guess it’s one of the few sites that is dedicated to reporting on such things, but boy howdy is it an odd mix of spiteful users and developer networking.
Ah, sorry. I’ve been trying to use Invidious more, but it does seem to crap out rather often… Cheers for adding the youtube link ^^
Ahh, you’re the guys who posted over in reddit before your thread got locked that think it’s a good idea to promote Russian propaganda equally with Ukrainian content, because you don’t want to ‘Take sides’ politically. Closed source too, so that’s pretty much a dealbreaker right there, especially for Privacy focused users. We’ve been abused by closed source software for far too long to trust anything less.
You also have absolutely no plan on how to monetize, as others have said in this thread already.
I certainly won’t be supporting you, not with those values.
Grist Magazine is pretty good, mostly focuses on environmental news
I would probably use gals in your specific example, but personally, I would use guys if addressing a group of girl friends, but that’s just how I perceive the word. I guess once you add ‘the’ or ‘some’ behind guys, I perceive it as masculine, but it feels totally neutral to me in other contexts, such as “C’mon guys, let’s go X!” or “Guys, check this out.”
What the fuck dude.
Glad you liked it man! ^^
Both of which are generally a lot more money than a chromebook. I think this is a good guide for people who cannot afford those options, or already have a Chromebook they’d like to tinker with. :)
Crystal lang is also pretty cool looking. It seems to be going for what Nim is doing, making Ruby as fast as C.
Florisboard has decent swipe typing from what I remember, and should be available in F-droid.
EDIT: after checking, I see Floris has not been updated in two years on f-droid. :(
