Maybe if you send enough fan mail to Tim Cook

Clearly you didn’t understand the point I was making. I never said you weren’t allowed to like a product.

The article exposes the title as a lie. People shouldn’t reward that kind of journalism by reading it.

Congrats, you sound exactly like some Apple fanboy.

Huh? EVs are more popular than they have ever been, and most of the developed world is edging ever closer to ICE bans for newly sold cars (most are 2035).

Why are you being so ideological about the fuel type people’s cars use?

People frequently act like Lemmy users are different to Reddit users, but that really isn’t the case. People act the same here as they did/do there.

I’m just telling you the facts.

but only providing instructions for… what, fedora and rhel?

Yes, what, did you want me to provide instructions for everything under the sun? Look at what I wrote, I said “or whatever”, I.e. or the equivalent commands on another distro.

And saying that running your package manager from the command line is to “feel like a hacker?”

Lmao you’re just confirming you’re trying to bait people here.

Fun fact there’s a range of distros that don’t have proper UIs for their package manager

Ok? What’s your point? You’d only install a distro that leans heavily on the terminal if you’re the kind of person who wants to rely on the terminal. I don’t even know what point you’re trying to make lmao

What exactly do you think is inside of those packages?

It varies. But regardless, that’s a colossally stupid point. Installing random .exe files you find online also executes scripts.

The point you made was that on Linux the way you install programs is to go online and run random scripts. That is objectively a lie, and now you’re backpedaling away from that point.

And you know, Flatpaks do exist and are the standard now.

We’ve been there for a long time.

Broadly speaking, outside of some specific niche workflows, Linux has been pretty easy for a long time, and Windows has a lot of unintuitive stuff that we only think is easy because we’re used to it.

Linux and Windows certainly both have their failings, but it feels like Linux’s generally stem from the lack of full time developers on projects, whereas failings in Windows often feel like a deliberate user-hostile choice.

Updates in Linux are not random third party scripts you find online, why are you spreading this lie?

You go into your app store/software centre and click update. To the user, this is all they see.

If you want to feel like a hacker, or find it quicker, you can open a terminal run sudo dnf update or whatever. That’s still not a random third party script, though.

People can put their energy wherever they damn well please. You can work on Linux phones if you want to.

This is the question that should’ve been asked before it was built and shipped.

Now that it has been, though, any effort to keep it out of landfill and find a use for the hardware is good.

Why is this a thing for US phone networks?

Why do they care whether the ones and zeroes sent/received stay on the phone or not? Data is data. It shouldn’t be any more complicated than that.

Bloody hell, this is a damn documentary.

Yeah, web browsers cost hundreds of millions per year to maintain, they’re mind-bogglingly complicated and costly.

I’d really hope the Linux Foundation would help contribute towards the budget, but LF is quite pro Chromium.

I don’t think end users can even come close to funding Firefox development, unfortunately.

Also their initiative to recognise images and generate alt-text for screen-reader users.

My sister is blind and screen readers are close to useless on the web, so it was great to hear Mozilla is working on that.

Seems like an interesting way to get people to slow down (people will want to time the melody not just hear a sudden clash of notes), but it’s a bit irritating to see an AI-generated article being posted here.

It’s frustrating to read this. Repetitive and verbose, like a student trying to pad out their homework to meet a word count.

It isn’t an OLED screen. It’s an E-ink one. I don’t know where you got this idea that it’s an OLED from.

TVs generally don’t come with unlocked bootloaders. That shit is locked down big time.

That would certainly be ideal, although there’s great difficulty in finding 50"+ monitors, and they cost a huge amount more

Sad people buy more to try to make themselves happy. Retail therapy.

People who serve ads have a vested interest in knowing when you’re unhappy and what makes you unhappy, so they can capitalise on it.
