  • How do you deal with performance issues?

  • If the game has a internal resolution scaler, I'll run the game at a lower internal resolution like 900p or even 720p on some games. The UI stays an appropriate size but runs better.

    Even without a resolution scaler, running a game at 900p often isn't that bad.

  • But there was a silver lining: Small communities that purchased treated water from larger utilities—especially privately owned ones—had fewer violations. (EPA declined to comment on the new study.)

  • Jack Dorsey regrets his role in creating a centralized internet

    Jump

  • I realize I’m partially to blame, and regret it.

    Then open source the code behind twitter, remove barriers to decentralization, encourage self hosting of twitter instances by making it easy for even normies to achieve. Twitter has the funds and ability to achieve this. Put up or shut the fuck up, Jack.

  • You could either donate to help Pop's development or use its more community oriented upstream distro Debian.

  • With a Smartphone I will be tempted to browse social media & play games

    If you ever have to switch to using a smart phone again, one thing that might help is making the screen monochrome in the android developer options. Removing the colors from the screen makes our ape brains not get as excited and more focused on tasks. It also works on desktops.

    Edit for additional thoughts: One downside of using a flip phone compared to a smartphone is the lack of security based applications like encrypted messaging for example.

  • What is the appeal of a flip phone? Is it specifically the physical form factor or is there something else I'm missing?

  • Converting Ubuntu To A Rolling Release Using Rolling Rhino

    Jump

  • I wonder if Fedora having a simple checkbox upon first login to enable RPM fusion, nvidia drivers, and codecs would be considered to be going against its free software policy. They would technically be shipping only free software be default and in their own repos if users only had to check a couple of checkboxes after installation to enable some common non-free software.

    Depending on your preferred desktop environment they may have the best implementation of it. Ubuntu MATE is to MATE what Fedora is to GNOME, you’re not going to find a MATE experience half as good anywhere else. I wouldn’t be surprised if the same was true for lxqt or something.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think a lot of this has to do with the fact that Fedora tries to ship packages that are more vanilla than standard Ubuntu packages. If the experience on Ubuntu MATE is better than the Fedora MATE/Compiz spin, then perhaps that is the fault of both Ubuntu MATE for going against the spirit of free software by not pushing their changes upstream and maybe even the fault of the MATE desktop developers themselves for not trying to request those changes be pushed upstream.

    The amount of Russophobia and anti Russian censorship ongoing currently on Reddit is astounding.

  • leaving for 5-10% anti-hatred people

    Does someone being from the USA or Europe automatically make them anti-Russia? Does someone not being from USA or Europe automatically make them pro-Russia?

    Isn't assuming either of these things prejudiced (and dare I say perhaps even racist) against both Americans and Europeans?

  • Make Linux look exactly like Windows 95... I mean exactly.

  • Converting Ubuntu To A Rolling Release Using Rolling Rhino

    Jump

  • What is the use case for doing this compared to just using a different distro with newer packages? Fedora is very nearly as well supported for most software but has newer packages than Ubuntu while also innovating by including newer technologies first. With also Ubuntu pushing Snaps heavily as well makes me question why anybody runs Ubuntu at all anymore when better distros exist.

  • Europe is always ready to save white people

    You make that sound like its racist for European countries wanting to help out a European neighbor. It isn't.

  • Thanks for sharing your setup. Looks interesting. Maybe one day we'll have the ability to run a full software stack without any memory unsafe programs, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it happening too soon unfortunately.

  • Removing C from your setup sounds interesting. Please tell me more about your setup and the different ways you have removed C.

  • What does a society do with people that are homeless by choice?

    Jump

  • I agree 100%. I was just wondering how to balance their ability to live their lifestyle and the public's generally negative perception of them.

  • What does a society do with people that are homeless by choice?

    Jump

  • I'm not angry at them. I think the people that I've met living this lifestyle are some of the interesting and welcoming people I've ever met. I just think that is a negative perception among the general population to the small amount of people who voluntarily live that lifestyle. My question I asked was how to achieve a balance that allows people to live homeless by choice while also minimizing the perceived issues of homelessness that it pervasive among the general population.

  • What does a society do with people that are homeless by choice?

    Jump

  • I didn't ever intend to imply that homeless people are not a part of society. Of course they're a part of society. They have everyday interactions with homeless and homed people alike. The conditions that made it possible to have mass homelessness don't just go away if everyone has a home. There is a systemic issue that affects more than just homeless people. Homed people have to work with homeless people together as a society to find practical solutions to serious issues affecting everyone.

  • The best solution regarding privacy would be to own the hi-fi files directly and then stream them to your devices using software you self host like jellyfin or something.

  • How can we have Libre Culture without email?

  • I’m guessing there is not a technical solution to this

    We need dead simple turn key solutions for self hosted services. Simple as setting up a wifi router or some other consumer focused device.
