Ok, I’ll bite.

Why does a game console need a webcam?

Nintendo takes pride in using outdated hardware. Kinda cool in some cases kinda “wtf” in others.

Fwiw I use a phone imported from the UK (Nothing Phone 1) in NA without problems so who knows why they won’t do this.

It’s really unlikely this will become an issue. Especially not one without an easy solution. Fedora is a very popular distro.

The Luanti community generally does not see it as a “Minecraft killer” and doesn’t want it to be that. But it’s a cool project for sure.

Idk if most software developers know this is what they should be doing and ignore it completely or if they just don’t know.

There are so, so many reasons to do this.

But I don’t think this really happens very often in the real world because it’s not the shortest line from A to B.

Us here in NA finally get to see what its like on the other side of the region locking coin haha.

Windows is just a gotcha game now lmao

What the fuck? This is so unhinged. Genuine question, is he actually this dumb or he’s just saying complete bullshit to boost stock prices?

I use F-droid to get my open source apps. Much more trustworthy than Google play. It’s my first stop for anything I’m looking for.

To be fair that’s not really true. Gatekeeper is deeply integrated into the OS and is extremely strict.

As opposed to windows, macOS will effectively refuse to run any software that is not signed and notarized by Apple themselves.

I’m not a fan of this behaviour but that’s the way it is.

Sample size one but I’m on Fedora with Firefox and uBlock. Not seeing any issues yet.

So it’s not very straight forward lol?

“great on deck” is a lot more than Linux support. It also means the text is readable on a small screen and the game has 100% controller support.

This is a thing. It just doesn’t work very reliably for the reasons you mentioned.

It does work kind of ok on some comics like the one OP shared and generally pretty well on manga since that tends to be more consistent with the boxes.

I don’t know of anything open source or self hosted that does this though.

So this is kind of going to be weird advice. Maybe not exactly what you are looking for.

You don’t need all those synths and plugins. You really don’t. You can get so, so far just by learning to use the tools that are built into Reaper or Bitwig.

There are really only a handful of audio effects that “really exist” a lot of FX plugins are just complex chains with fancy UIs. But if you understand what they’re doing “under the hood” you can reproduce almost any sound from from the basic building blocks you have.

The same is true for synthesisers. You truly only need one synth as long as it is a flexible, general purpose modern synth. Learning to use one specific synth to it’s full potential will let you make almost any sound you can imagine. Vital synth is a perfect candidate here btw.

Overall I kind of think part of the Linux mindset in general is kind of about doing things your self based on an understanding of the core principals at play.

That being said, there are tons of plugins coming out with native Linux support all the time and it’s getting better every day.

I’m actually about to drop some Linux builds of some plugins myself but I don’t want to dox myself here so that will have to remain a mystery for now.

Yesterday I asked an LLM “how much energy is stored in a grand piano?” It responded with saying there is no energy stored in a grad piano because it doesn’t have a battery.

Any reasoning human would have understood that question to be referring to the tension in the strings.

Another example is asking “does lime cause kidney stones?”. It didn’t assume I mean lime the mineral and went with lime the citrus fruit instead.

Once again a reasoning human would assume the question is about the mineral.

Ask these questions again in a slightly different way and you might get a correct answer, but it won’t be because the LLM was thinking.

No shit

Allowing fdroid from to come from the play store is NOT a solution by any means. Users should have the right to never touch the play store or agree to googles TOS.

I recently started carrying a GPD microPC because of this bullshit.

It’s like a very bulky phone. Pocketable but kinda chonk. Thumb typing kinda thing.

But it runs Fedora + gnome with no problems.

My phone is now just for quick stuff and a way to make a WiFi hotspot.
