  • I suppose so. I'd rather they spell it out for simple readability. Like I don't know what Krita means but easy to read. Kate text editor may mean something, I don't know. Kdenlive is easy to read. Don't know what the 'den' part is supposed to mean

    Apparently it's "KDE Non-Linear Video Editor". At least kdenlive is easy to read in my opinion

  • It took me reading the comments here to get that it's pronounced Wilbur. I don't get why it needs to be an acronym

  • Looking forward to improvements to drive/photos/office. I haven't had any trouble with the Linux VPN application but I'll take any improvements

  • I just did the upgrade from 25.10 and am very entertained that it has wobbly windows on by default

  • Linux is legit pretty easy now comparable to Windows. It's application preferences and familiarity that keeps people at bay. New to computer user, I don't think they'd struggle anymore with a gnome or kde linux desktop than with windows. to do the regular stuff people do. Browse the internet. Save their photos/documents in some folders

  • We're in a mature software stage for these art software applications. Easier to catch up than create new features that people make essential to their workflow. Today it's commercial alternatives that have closed the gap well enough. Someday in the future open source stuff will. It's inevitable

    Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 Officially Announced With New Trailer

  • From what I interpret off the Wikipedia page, it had sold single digit millions by COVID and then went viral in China during COVID and that's how it ended up selling tens of millions more

  • Didn't think the Witcher 3 had caught up to infinite releases Skyrim. TW3 will have another big bump when the new expansion hits. It'll probably get rewnewed interest from modders as well

  • He was probably always like this to a degree. Thing to keep in mind is that political alignments when it comes to voting blocs aren't all or nothing. Even if historically Chapelle has voted democratic, that doesn't mean he cared for everything equally or at all and this applies very much to black people and racial minorities in the US and western European countries and leftist parties as those parties are seen as less racist parties so you really don't have as much leeway to vote for other issues when your safety and basic rights as a minority group are more of a concern over stuff like economic/immigration/healthcare/sexuality/gender/etc policies. Like Chapelle will dependably care for politics that are pro-black Americans but any other race, I'm skeptical he actually cares and very likely doesn't care for matters of gender and sexuality. In regards outside of social black american policies, he may very well be firmly conservative. It just wasn't good for his brand earlier in his career

    Similar vein would be like the past decade of popular rappers being way more embracing of the republican party than in the past. Like Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj. Like do Beyonce and Jay-Z really care about the working class or other races. Jay Z was a crack dealer and in the Epstein papers and Beyonce has consistently made use of sweatshop labor and been ruthless with her touring employees. Social progressives in regards to the what they identify with, conservative in regards to their money and possibly other identities.

    Racism is still a problem but this isn't the 70s. It's not that surprising considering how mainstream homophobia a lot of rap used to be up to the early 2010s. So as multiculturalism continues to become more and more normal, I have expected for a long time for left/right voting splits by race to trend towards 50/50. In the past openly conservative actors/musicians/comedians/entertainers/etc were a lot more common. I'm guessing the civil rights movements going mainstream is what changed that. Then as the civil rights movements that had huge swaths of people could identify with starting passing some good enough threshold, demographic based civil rights becomes more niche and parties have to experiment with messaging and being a conservative entertainer/artist stops being career suicide

    I think there should be some healthy skepticism for actors and their actual political alignments. It's been practically required for public relations for entertainers to be seen as leftist but at the studio executive and I expect at the funding source producer level, there's always been a high percentage of conservative representation. And publicly rich leftist, I've never seen them as eager to fund leftist political causes like publicly rich conservatives. Well known advocate for victims of sexual abuse, Ashton Kutcher, was quick to defend his close friend and serial rapist from that 70s Show. Stories of him and Wilmer Valderrama make them both sound predatory towards young women/girls.

    Like their shouldn't be any genetic reason why white people should be more conservative across the board of polices. The same really for LGBTQ people being progressive which is why I'm never surprised about the existence of conservative people of LGBTQ backgrounds. People always mention how western European politics are so much more leftist than American but to me that only really applies to the social safety net but that doesn't apply to overall policy in regards to capitalism, immigration, foreign policy/imperialism-racism outside of their own borders. As non-white populations in European countries increase, to me it looks like race politics and racism have become more and more reflective of the US. I have doubts the social safety nets in Europe would have ever been passed if at the times their populations were as racially diverse as the US was in the 50s-80s

  • Dave Chappelle the older he's gotten, the more he's punched down. It's not like he wasn't doing that when he was younger, he just got worse and worse over time. Then he tried to be one of the good ol' boys and just wasn't rich or influential enough to fit in and now he wants to pretend he isn't a crappy person deep down. It's a bit hard to make it far in entertainment if you aren't pretty self-centered and opportunistic. He just unmasked to the crowd that weren't his audience and now he wants back in with the younger crowd again

  • I just want to see people out there figure out how to rip applications out of Amazons walled garden and see how difficult it is to run them on regular Linux desktops. Maybe React Native here ends up being a win for Steam Machines and home theater Linux

  • Being 9060xt based is the main bonus over the Steam Machine. It's a good bump over the 7600

  • I remember a study that had Duolingo as the most egregious data collector by far on people's phone

  • That controller is the lynchpin for making a mini PC my future home theater center. I care for it more than the steam machine

  • A lot of the stuff towards the bottom were hit by the long age of automation that we responded with indifference or stuff like, now you have time to pursue the arts or learn IT or learn a trade, etc. At least most of that time there was other manual labor to move to as previous manual labor was automated. Autoworkers from the 70s and 80s finally get to say to all the college educated folks, now you know how I felt. Farmhands have probably been able to say that many times over the last 200 years

  • One thing is that I email and receive emails from almost no one that uses an encrypted service on their end so I have nearly zero expectations when it comes to email. Regardless, as long as it's encrypted so they have been demonstrated in court to not being able to provide the content of my emails and you can pay with some crypto, then I consider it good enough. Other thing is that regardless of what country you live in, a service outside of the country you live in. Preferably even countries that have the least if not just about no significant information sharing treaties. Maybe hostile to the country I live in is best. I have no concerns about law enforcement in other countries. My concern is the authority that I live under practically every day of the year regardless of their behavior in the present

    Other types of services I have higher expectations for privacy like cloud storage and VPNs

  • I'd absolutely use crypto if it was more available in anything I'd want to pay for. So far it's mostly just VPNs and donations

  • At the size of transactions they'd be doing, it'd probably be worth it to set a high fee so that it gets picked up and processed faster. Should still be peanuts compared to the value of cargo these tankers are carrying
