Jewish people are in more danger thanks to Israel. So yeah.

What would save the world is less billionaires and stronger regulations for companies to stop waste.

I thought it was only a thing about cross provincial border licensing thing? I must’ve misread.

You mean like this?

Finding their addresses wouldn’t be that hard I bet.

Edit: I just found out the CEO of the company I work for has a net worth of over a couple of billions of dollars… And this year I got a sub 2% raise. Fuck him.

That’s interesting. I kind of feel the same way. Snap seem great and have improved a bit. But it lacks certain controls that Flatpak has.

It also covers more than just desktop apps, you can install a lot of other software in sandboxes.

At least it’s not due to food safety or anything like that. It’s just a license issue.

You’re not wrong.

But, what about Snaps? What’s your take on these?

I can’t recommend to a newcomer a distro that can potentially break or introduce bugs or vulnerabilities with software that’s too bleeding edge. That’s why I’ll never recommend Arch or even Fedora. And Bazzite is really too gaming focused and you can only install software through flatpaks. (I know there’s other ways, but we’re talking about newbies here. We need to keep it simple.)

I think Zorin OS did a really good job at customizing Gnome to make it the way it should have been. As for limiting customizeability, I don’t think that’s necessarily bad. Sometimes I get overwhelmed by KDE’s customization options. Vanilla Gnome has too little. Zorin’s desktop is just right.

But that’s my opinion.

kubuntu is trash

That’s like… your opinion, man.

Hey! Welcome to the fediverse!

You’re not wrong. I think there’s definitely room for some improvements.

And sometimes too many customizations can become confusing. I tend to keep everything vanilla to avoid things breaking, except for a few things. I installed a Win 10 theme and even a Win 10 style Tile start menu because I love the concept so much.

I know it’s controversial in a Linux community, but I absolutely LOVED the Windows 10 ergonomics. Square, flat, predictable, and your eyes can quickly pick up the necessary information and you can navigate faster with a mouse. Plus with the Powertoys that added the fancy zones feature, that was perfect. I get all of this in KDE.

I’m using Kubuntu LTS and I’m gaming just fine.

I use Kubuntu LTS for that exact reason. Even though I am an experienced Linux user for over 20 years, I don’t have time to fuck around fixing my PC when something goes wrong. It’s stable and it works. And, yes I game on my PC and it’s doing just fine with my 3070 RTX NVidia card with the drivers provided by Ubuntu through their 3rd party driver system. No hassle, no crashing, just me using my computer doing the things I need to do.

That’s a long paragraph for saying YOLO

Je sud vraiment déçu de comment le mouvement souverainiste s’est transformé. On était bien partis avec des programmes de francisation et d’intégration sociale. On avait des immigrants qui étaient contents et fiers d’avoir choisi le Québec comme terre d’accueil. Calice, ils ont CHOISI le Québec! Y’a pas plus flatteur que ça! Et comme Pierre Falardeau l’avait dit: “Un québécois c’est quelqu’un qui dit qu’il l’est.” C’est pas que des blancs d’ancêtres de colons français. Et la culture québécoise, c’est un gros mélange de cultures des nations qui l’ont fondé. Des autochtones, des français, des écossais, des anglais, des irlandais, des juifs, des italiens, des vietnamiens, des haïtiens, etc.

PSPP pis ses petits nationalistes blancs francophones sont vraiment à côté de la track.

Et je dis ça en tant que québécois blanc francophone “pur laine” comme on dit. D’ailleurs cette laine est faite à partir de plusieurs moutons différents.

Seeing this after the holidays: “Guess I’ll die.” ¯\(ツ)/¯

Huh interesting. I didn’t know that.

Amen

So, you should start my setting the stove to low and gradually heat it up?
