I’m fairly confident that it’s a change in Flatpak itself rather than any one specific Flatpak, since all of my apps now use the same new screen sharing interface. Difference is that it actually works in those apps.

Screen sharing with Discord no longer works, but I think that’s from an update to Flatpak because it was also happening at the end of 39’s lifecycle.

Yeah, that’s what I’m referring to. I’ve never successfully turned on hardware acceleration when running Windows guests, and I don’t think Gnome Boxes even exposes the option.

It’s got really good hardware graphics acceleration.

If 1000 satellites is all it takes to “erode the atmosphere” to a point where earth is uninhabitable, we’re already fucked a thousand times over.

I mean wifi tethering. Sure, I could set up Tasker to turn it on once it detects that I’m in the car, but I’d personally rather save myself the effort.

Yeah but one of the reasons to pay for Tidal is the sound quality, and bluetooth sounds objectively worse than streaming directly on the car. Also, how am I supposed to maintain a wifi connection while moving? I’m not about to tether my phone every time I get in the car.

Just so you know, you can do Spotify and Tidal now with premium connectivity, too. Tidal is basically the only reason I have it, because the speakers are good enough for the sound quality difference to be noticeable. I agree with the rest of your points, though.

What smells like copium in here?

YOU MEAN I HAVE TO PUT MY SHOES ON MY FEET MYSELF‽ UTTERLY UNUSABLE!

Yeah but at least our smugness isn’t based off 30-year-old information, unlike yours.

In my experience, YouTube is almost universally shit for anything to do with software. I’ve stopped bothering trying to find any software YouTubers and rely on blogs instead.

IIRC it was specifically Civics made after a certain year. I wanna say 1994? Subaru is super big on the concept, too, though. It’s actually where they got their name (“Subaru” apparently means “unity” in Japanese).

Yeah I never cared for him much before, but I also never cared about him much either. Now I actively despise him, which I guess is a form of successful marketing in that I’m still talking about him, but fuck it.

EDIT to add: I vaguely remember hearing that Civics were all compatible with the same parts regardless of model year, but I don’t know how true that is.

That’s a fair point, but I’ve already seen what one uninformed, idiotic YouTuber (LTT) is capable of achieving by closing his eyes, putting his fingers in his ears, stamping his feet, and whipping his equally uninformed followers into a frenzy over an issue that was almost entirely his own fault. I fully expect such events to continue as Linux gains popularity.

Unpopular opinion: I’m concerned that widespread adoption of Linux would mean a reduction in functionality for power users. Considering that the majority of “regular user” effort seems to be going into gaming, I’m doubly concerned that the first major group to embrace Linux would be Gamers, a demographic I think is capable of doing untold damage to the ecosystem at large.

I’d probably move to FreeBSD if things got to that point.

EDIT: by “Gamers” I don’t mean people who like video games, I mean the people who make video games their entire personality and assume they understand everything about a computer because they managed to install Steam without blowing away their entire OS.

BG3 runs more reliably on Linux for me, though my Windows install is getting old and crusty these days.

I actually disagree with point 1 to an extent. The startup work for such a machine would indeed require a lot of effort, but once that groundwork is in place, wouldn’t that make it easier to maintain momentum and release a successor?

The most recent case you can find is from 2006? Jesus, dude. Please, I beg of you, get outside and interact with a person face to face. It has to have been years for you at this point.

Insulting someone doesn’t make it racist just because the other person is a different race from you.

Also, the meme was started by Chinese people.
