Correct, I did not watch the video because the first premise the video offered is untrue. I don’t mean to poo-poo you sharing Linux stuff, and if this video gets more people onto Linux, great.
But like I said, it is not for those of us who have been here for a very long time screaming about how important it is to control your OS if you want to own your computer.
Windows NEVER meant freedom.
Noped out right away.
Not the video for those of us who have been around for long enough to remember all the shit MS pulled trying to kill Linux off.
Old programmers shouting at clouds.
(Old programmer here, I just shout at differently shaped clouds than this one.)
Edit: I am not sure if the respondents to this comment think I have a horse in this race. I said I don’t and that I shout at different clouds. I am just here answering a question.
I console.dir and debugger; and breakpoint all day. You are allowed to mix your strategies.
My brother in programming,
please don’t use AI for data format conversion when deterministic energy efficient means are readily available.
Someone who gets the fucking context.
The fact they aren’t replacing him is perfection.
Was there no easy way for the developer to block a random asshole?
So it is people running beta software at the kernel level?
Edit: I am not trying to be elitist - why would messing with X11 cause your system to be bricked? Come up in run level 3 and fix your issue in the terminal… ?
Hey, as an old school linux guy, I am always curious:
How the fuck do y’all seem to manage to fuck Linux up so bad that you seem to be so scared of bricking your systems?
I mean, really. I see this complaint all the time. And in 25+ years of Linux, I can think of maybe once or twice where I meased something up with dd way back in the day when that was the only tool.for certain jobs.
How are y’all managing to mess yourselves up?
I don’t have strong feelings one way or the other regarding Flatpak. I am just trying to understand why everyone seems so deathly afraid their linux systems will break when I have literally had way more windows systems just randomly do that to me over the years. How is your lived experience so radically different than mine?
Noped out after having to click through to different pages while wading through gobs of text.
Edit: if anyone has a concise overview, I’d be interested.
Trust gamers to overreact and ruin things instead of being reasonable and finding a way forward that would benefit everyone, including the maintainers doing the thankless work of managing these distributions.
Same. Would be curious to know what problems this has caused any actual normal users (not weirdo fascist tech bros).
… and this is how IT ends up being responsible for a breach.
It is a bug, unexpected and undefined behavior - it shouldnt have been there.
You are not wrong about the outcome from a capitalist view, but otherwise you are.
I am very interested in this as well.
I wonder if creating some kind of shared NixOS setup might work? (I know very little about NixOS but it seems like it should be good for this sort of thing?)
If you start down this road and set up a git repo or something, I would be interested in contributing/testing.
I also kinda like the idea of being able to slap other things into usb ports - dashcams, a usb stick with a good road trip mix, etc.
This is cool.
It’s this old link, eh?
Citation needed.
The most compelling feature I always get asked if Jellyfin has ala Plex is the discovery/NAT punch for linking people up.
That does not strike me as something that necessarily breaks backwards compatibility. It would require some centralized discovery, and I think that is probably where we run into an issue because if I were the Jellyfin devs, I wouldn’t want to have to support that, either.
You are ignoring people who have walked this path and are giving you the advice right now.
Public file hosting is not where you start.
