Libreboot ftw
Libreboot ftw
The dip in windows is corrolated with the increase in linux
Well, yeah? The users have to come from somewhere?
Its just a measurement error
Maybe
Another one for the graveyard!
You’re not gonna get anything requiring Ring 0 access (like Vanguard) running on Linux anytime soon.
Good. Kernel mode anticheat is fucking malware. Anticheat for a game should never have the same power over the system as a driver, which needs those privileges to communicate with hardware.
Debian :)
Its a fucking typo for comedic effect🤦♂️
You’re looking far too deep into a joke about GNOME developers removing features.
This is the best way I’ve heard it said.
Busybox is very much widely used though?
And how is it false that the GPL makes software remain free? Read the free software definition, it’s about the freedom of users, not the freedom of people who aren’t users (that doesn’t really make sense). Free software isn’t “source code available to general public even if they aren’t users”.
Doubled down on being what?
Are you trying to argue that anything written here is false? Can you prove it?
Linus wrote a kernel, and GNU wrote the majority of the userspace at the time.
How is that coat-tails-ing? Both projects had a tremendous amount of effort poured into them. And let’s not forget GCC was the only free compiler for 20 years.
If people were asking for it to be called “GNU” only, then it’d be unfair. But they aren’t.
Fuck that.
Yeah, sure, we like to promote it because it’s… harder??
It stops parts of Linux becoming proprietary, and becoming the dominant version users interact with. Comparisons with other kernels are irrelevant
Systemd likes to break standards. That’s a big reason
I think that’s GNOME’s fault. Debian allows you to do more than Ubuntu, for example by not ramming proprietary snaps down your throat when you try to use apt.
The Apple of Linux? Is that not Ubuntu?
Yep the Pinetime can last for about 2 weeks on Infinitime in my case
Fuck off Poettering. Stop trying to absorb the whole system.
EDIT: apparently systemd absorbing the whole system with it’s nonstandard, monolithic nightmare is a good thing, judging from downvotes. Carry on.
KDE Plasma on a laptop whose hardware was crap when it came out in 2009, running fine:

GNOME, slightly sluggish:

Also just checked out your “computing guide” (which is just a loose collection of info and recommendations more than a guide), and lol’d at this paragraph [brackets mine]:
F(L)OSS means Free (Libre) Open Source software, and it means that the software is freeware [eh, no? FLOSS can be paid], AND the source code that are building blocks of software, are available openly and freely for modification, reverse engineering, compilation and studying purposes. The correct way to say it, as Richard Stallman says, is FLOSS and not FOSS. [I’m fairly sure if you ask Stallman he’ll completely reject “Open Source” all together]
Oh I read it was a backdoored BIOS.
Yeah libreboot would probably not help much then.
