  • Chrome not proceeding with Web Integrity API deemed by many to be DRM

  • GraphHopper

    I can't speak for your particular interests, but in my experience there is something for pretty much every niche. That's what keeps YouTube in their dominant position as well.

  • Proton can also be used by other tools like Bottles. It's very similar to Lutris but with a more general purpose focus, rather than just gaming.

    Wait, which cli ships with this distro?

    Jump

  • Useradd is the basic unix one, so that should work regardless of distro. Adduser does some special Debian stuff iirc

  • Do you think VPN companies will start to feel pressure from legal/corporate powers to crackdown on pirating?

    Jump

  • None of the big VPN companies officially endorse use if their services for piracy or any illegal activities for that matter.

    But to crack down on it they would have to keep logs on your activity and with that most of their legitimate use cases wouldn't be valid anymore either.

  • In 2023 which would you choose for a Linux phone and why: Phosh oder GNOME Shell mobile?

    Jump

  • SafetyNet is also an issue on Android as soon as you modify anything or install a custom ROM :/

    Fedora 40 Eyes Dropping GNOME X11 Session Support

    Apple event as a consumer vs. investor

    Jump

  • They have to comply until 6 March 2024 under the Digital Markets Act, so hopefully we should see sideloading very soon. Fingers crossed

  • Trying Fedora. Never rebooted so often in my life

    Jump

  • But even with an immutable distro you don't have to reboot. The updated image just gets downloaded in the background and booted into when you restart. There is no harm in still being booted from the old image id you don't specifically need anything only included in the new one. Nothing forces you to reboot.

    Jump

  • Fair point. Them not at least using USB 3 across the line up is silly and I don't really see what they gain from doing it apart from maybe saving a cent in production.

    But on the other hand I don't think it matters either. The vast majority of people probably don't plug their phone in for anything but charging and the few people that record large video files on their phone will probably get a pro model either.

    So yeah USB 2 speeds are silly and I don't want to defend a trillion dollar company for saving a cent on production but I don't think it matters either.

    Jump

  • Both iPhone 15 models were good iterative updates in my opinion. Nothing groundbreaking, sure, but Apple finally adopting both USB-C and AV1 is great to see and the programmable action button on the pro models is a nice addition as well.

    Fedora 40 Looks To Offer KDE Plasma 6 Desktop, Drop The KDE X11 Session

  • FOSS-alt to Authy?

    Jump

  • That is true. But that'd be the case for any online/cloud 2FA service. So you could either have a local 2FA app just for Bitwarden or set up less secure but more convenient email 2FA.

  • KDE Plasma 6.0 Planned For Release In Early February

    Jump

  • I'd argue it's implied that you mean the coming February if no year is specified.

    KDE Plasma 6.0 Planned For Release In Early February

  • FOSS-alt to Authy?

    Jump

  • I personally use Bitwarden for my 2FA needs. As others mentioned you can self host the server but personally I have no reason not to trust their SaaS solution, especially now that they offer EU hosted servers. If all you want is a basic authenticator app that does only one thing give FreeOTP a try, it's made my RedHat. You can then sync the applications state.

  • Defediverse

    Jump

  • Yeah who defederated kbin?

  • How long have you had your current water bottle?

    Jump

  • I have the big LTT Store water bottle ever since it came out, so roughly two years ago? I replaced the lid once (not because it was broken but because i like the new one more) and it's holding up great.

  • GitLab plans support for ActivityPub

    Jump

  • This is amazing! Honestly a no brainer feature. Having to create an account just to contribute on one project's instance is not a great experience currently and the reason I mainly stick to Github.

  • what messaging app you have quit and rejoined?

    Jump

  • It's the same as with email. If I communicate with someone using Gmail, then yes, of course Google also gets some my data. But it's still better than being forced to use Gmail because my friend is on Gmail right?

  • The first conformant M1 GPU driver

    Jump

  • Macs have a big user base, if you like it or not.

    Apple supporting Vulkan or not supporting it will not change a thing about that.

    Developers support platforms where the users are. Having good support for Vulkan on Macs would make their life easier.

    I fail to see how that's a bad thing. Apple not supporting Vulkan won't drive the average user to install Linux as they don't know what it even is.

  • what messaging app you have quit and rejoined?

    Jump

  • That makes sense with their reasoning. But the DMA will still free people from WhatsApp regardless. There will be some open source messaging app implementing the new MLS protocol to communicate with WhatsApp users. I am more than happy to use that alongside Signal instead of WhatsApp.

  • Why do people brush their teeth first thing in the morning?

    Jump

  • The health related reasons others gave are interesting, but my reasoning is this pretty simple: On normal weekdays I don't really have breakfast, so brushing my teeth as one if the first things makes sense. On weekends I like to have breakfast with my family so I'd like to get rid of morning breath before I talk to people.
