Probably someone’s pet project

There’s quite a few nice apps for Lemmy. I’m using Connect for Lemmy on android and it’s wonderful.

Probably mostly AI written.

Long article for one sentence of trivia and no info on the algo itself. The death of the internet is upon us.

This is because AI (vis-a-vis LLMs) became a religion to many, rather than a technology.

It’s going to be much much worse than just “hard to get a visa” – this shitball is rolling downhill and anyone brown should be considering another country.

First they came for…

Ticketmaster is cancer

Did they even watch it?

The free speech absolutists are going to cause something far far worse than what is portrayed. But maybe that is the goal.

I’m sorry you had a bad experience. I’ve used it as my daily driver with minimal effort post installation on multiple occasions, usually on work laptops where time spent tinkering is time wasted. I’ve found it to be a good choice in that context. I now own my own business, and OpenSuse has allowed me to repurpose older laptops as workstations for my employees with minimal effort.

The only actual pain point I’ve seen is setting up a wifi enabled printer … required that I change my firewall zone so the printer could be discovered. And that only required a few minutes to figure out. The fact that the firewall is set to a more secure default is probably a feature, not a bug.

OpenSuse Leap or even Tumbleweed. After getting the media codecs up and running, and remembering to set you firewall zone to “home”, you’re pretty golden.

You’re applying logic when logic doesn’t apply. Why would he tarriff Canada?

I’ll believe it when I see code written for it solving a real problem

Actually kind of an amazing read. I suspect it shall live another life on 3-axis router tables and such for a while. The mechanic is single stroke lettering remain the same

I use old.reddit in desktop mode still, on occasion. Today I clicked on a screenshot of a game cause I wanted more detail. I was directed to the new Reddit interface. I right clicked on the image and chose “open image in new tab” and got the new Reddit interface. I tried CTRL-scroll to zoom in the image, and it made the UI elements larger and in the process shrunk the image. I left the site.

Or, hear me out, they went public and now they are making their product worse as enshittification takes its toll.

What’s the weirdest one you’ve tried? Most challenging? Have you found any really cool defining features in any distro?

For example GoboLinux and NixOS eschew the Linux file hierarchy standard (FHS), and that becomes their defining feature. But many other distros have some other defining feature. Slackware uses tarballs as package management and oldschool init. LFS has you build from nothing. Etc.

What algorithm should I use – oh shit, I just deflated

What would you have done before the internet?
