banning gay stuff on june 28? what could go wrong!

you shapeshift, but your state and society will periodically and randomly remind you, that they know, what shape you had earlier … wait, that does already exist. still superpower tho!

yeah! we are in the process of doing that right now. we are a quite big organisation, so it’ll take more steps, but some departments will have done the switch to foss office stuff in autumn. to the rest of us it’s an option already. linux nay follow in a few … years?

i got win11 on my machine now. the result is: it’s way slower. nice of my employer to push deceleration. sips tea

i guess convenience seekers can have linux these days. ppl don’t care for the os, only for “the programs” they “need”. i was agnostic to e.g. office suites (i hate em from the bottom of my heart) long before i considered trying a switch. that helped, i guess. a feature, that can only be reproduced with a certain version of licensed software is fundamentally bullshit.

i wish people hadn’t told me abt dual boot but using wine properly (or running a vm?). for windows will fuck up your boot section and that’s very scary the first time, alone.

the only problem i see, is the upcoming dependency on copilot … just leave those ppl be.

instead teach the willing some fundamentals:

• piping ps through grep and use kill is not intuitive for the windows user.
• the packaging system the distro comes with (idc, just call it ‘the appstore’).
• show them software, there are ppl who arent aware, how e-mail works, and that you can have “your outlook in thunderbird or whatever”
• show them how to find solutions, and teach them how to read the shell commands they’ll find. (+ the jokes abt rm … they dont need to understand it all, but be sceptical before running any 3 lines found on the net.)
• …
• really, its usually abt games. they come from steam. they got proton. teach ppl how to use steam! (and only after that tell them not to buy software that doesn’t run on linux natively!)

you are the only one who knows about your needs.

maybe there should be?!

back then it didn’t have signal-client i could get to work. that is of course a hard no if you work in the us military …

anbox exists. but yeah. it’s not for everyone and every situation.

i started to use ubuntu touch on a pixel5 in 2020. did this for almost two years until the phone broke down. it also was my first smartphone. so it opened up new possibilities.

i switched to a google free android after this. honestly i miss ubuntu touch from time to time especialy for its keyboard. i never used banking apps or the like, but even now there is one app i need some workarounds. so yeah. i guess the linux phone is viable for me. i just didn’t want to go for second hand hardware this time. and at the time the phone i went for wasn’t yet supported by ut.

haven’t had a look into the linux phone for a while. but will definetly, the next time i need to switch phones

i too love the svg. rest assured. ;)

litghter, as in smaller, yess. but keep in mind, that vector graphics need to be rendered, wich depending on circumstance and graphic might become inefficient.

i never crunched the numbers, but basically youre outsourcing the generation of a rastergraphic to those who open up your website.

great. ty. i learned a lot!

ty.

but … what does it mean? (not an english native. am i missing smth obvious?)

if you haven’t got it already: you can apply for german citizenship now. :)

no one who likes scripture would do this. no one who doens’t like scripture should get money for that.
