  • YouTube is dedicated to making itself worse; destroys SponsorBlock with ad injection changes

  • By making that comment you did engage with it... Not commenting at all would have been disengaging...

  • Linux and public awareness (ads, trailers etc)

    Jump

  • I wouldn't advertise on the premise that Windows is a horrible, privacy invasive OS. Even though it's true that would easily be grounds for Windows to claim defamation and pummel the entire thing into the ground with legal fees

    Adobe's ToS changes could be an AI overreach on user data

    Jump

  • That makes a lot of sense when you put it that way. For some reason I never factored that individuals were extending apps for their own use cases lmao

  • I feel like Linux alternatives often falter by trying to offer as extensive of a feature set as the proprietary options. GIMP would be better if it simplified it's menu's and focused on offering a strong central feature set, then expand on that core over time to offer a powerful workflow of it's own.

    I noticed this especially with FreeCAD, which is trying to do like 12 things for some reason? Just offer intuitive parametric cad and focus on it. We don't need OpenSCAD inside FreeCAD because OpenSCAD is already it's own thing for example.

  • Yeah that is wild. Back on windows I had a three monitor setup at one point and honestly rarely utilized the whole of it.

    Ever since moving to Linux and learning about virtual desktops I have never felt the need for more than one monitor. So I could hardly imagine the need for seven beyond novelty lol.

  • Controller Oriented Interface for linux?

  • Awesome, I will look more into that!

  • Any modern distro.

    There are GUI methods for adding repositories to every major software center to my knowledge, and it isn't very hard.

    Kate, and other modern file editors are more than equipped to handle some config files, that's probably the simplest thing ever.

    There are multiple GUI front ends for samba.

    Don't comment on the usability of Linux GUI if you haven't even tried in the last 20 years like seriously

  • Apple limits third-party browser engine work to EU devices

  • Would not mind at all if consoles got lumped in and forced to allow alternative app stores

  • Crapped my system

  • Yeah that's why I put it in quotes, it just kept popping up when I searched for distros more inclined towards gaming lol.

    Yeah I didn't know about bazzite before going about this whole thing, but I am not going to try gaming on my system until nvk becomes more capable. Even then only light work.

    I'm not necessarily a begginer as I have been using Linux for a few years now, but arch is definitely out of my wheelhouse

  • Am I the only person that feels that retro games are better?

    Jump

  • You even see this with games that were insanely cash grabby from ten or so years ago. Borderlands 2 made you pay for every level cap increase and tiny piece of updated content as it rolled out. The handsome collection fixed that, but it's still true that it really tried to toll you at every corner. Game is still highly regarded though.

  • Facebook Has Lost $1 Billion Every Month On VR Since June 2022

  • The thing that kept me attached to VR was Echo. Guess what they did to one of my literal favorite games

  • I wonder if self hosted fediverse stuff could gain a bit of traction 🤷

  • Pixelfed introduces Loops, a Short-Form Video App

    Jump

  • Pixelfed is really interesting, and this sounds like a fun project!

    The only problem major problem I have encountered with trying to use defederated social medias, outside of Lemmy, like it and mastadon has been the lack of discover ability. I guess I don't know how to properly utilize the platforms, but I never find much that is particular to my interests

  • Murder victim Kelly Wilkinson repeatedly visited police in fear. They said she was ‘cop shopping’

    Jump

  • I think the overall sentiment is removing violence as an option for everyone, cops, citizens, and criminals alike

    Guns as a thing in this world inherently create death and loss as a result of their existence, not in spite of it

  • Why is this whole chunk of the model dissapearing?

  • Thank you so much! This fixed it!

  • The angle makes it look really thin, but the object is actually a centimeter or so thick.

    I am getting a warning saying there is an object with no extrusion on first layer though

  • XFCE, while it doesn't have all the fancy animations and such it is incredibly customizable while still being super light weight.

  • A fatso CRT is what you guys need, not handhelds :/

  • Both? Both is good
