One alternative is that it only applies to companies that are listed as gatekeepers in the EU make it only hit megacorps

Why work on something quietly when you can work on it loudly?

It’s a flatpak://url that opens the app store on the computer where you do a one click install. So technically it’s two clicks.

I think he’s referencing the flathub install button where you can just hit install.

Snap is not all bad if you’re on a Ubuntu based distro, I just don’t like the way it’s pushed and that it comes from Ubuntu mostly. Startup time is a major issue for me also, but all in all it works.

I’m still sitting on the fence, heavily prefer flatpak but when Ubuntu is going to package nvidia drivers in a snap it’s a thing I’m up for trying.

My understanding is that if I’m on Ubuntu and the snap uses the same underlying Ubuntu version as my distro it should be fast but I haven’t seen it.

Every year is the year of the Linux desktop

Always has been

TL;DR: Try installing some on virtual box, by all means try Linux mint cinnamon but also try Ubuntu and Fedora KDE.

Linux has some jargon and since you want to learn I’ll give you a quick rundown of how a variation of Linux is composed.

“Kernel” is what makes Linux Linux. It’s a way of interacting with the hardware.

A “distribution” or “distro” is a one of the many flavors of Linux.

They are usually “based” on a common foundation like Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Nix and whatever. These also work like an onion where Mint is based on Ubuntu which in turn is based on Debian, all of which use some version of the Linux kernel.

A that’s just a base will just get you a terminal (also called a shell or console) and is very useful to make a server for example.

What most people think of as an OS is the user interface (i.e. clickable shit). The terminology in Linux for that is “desktop environment” (DE).

You’ll see a lot of distributions mix and watch between a base and a desktop environment such as Fedora with KDE, Ubuntu (Ubuntu with Gnome), Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE), Bazzite (Fedora silverblue base with either gnome, KDE or deck DE).

You mentioned Cinnamon. Cinnamon is a desktop environment for Mint so a Linux Mint Cinnamon contains the code of the following:

Linux kernel, Debian, Ubuntu and Mint as a base and Cinnamon to interact with it by using a mouse and keyboard.

There are currently three bases that are really popular right now, Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch. In the DE there are currently two that are most advanced, namely KDE and Gnome but Cinnamon is not far behind.

In all honestly, none of this matters all too much, just install a couple of popular distros on a virtual machine like Virtual Bok and do a vibe check.

Take a couple of these, install some programs and fuck around with the settings for a bit, install themes and whatever or watch a quick YouTube video on it:

• Ubuntu (gets hate for being corporate but is solid, uses Gnome)
• Linux mint Cinnamon
• Fedora KDE
• EndavourOS (an arch based distro that’s supposedly easy, haven’t tried it)
• Bazzite (weird way to install programs through the package manager but hard to fuck up beyond repair)
• Something with the Xfce DE just to see the “lightweight” look.

g-push

git push origin `git branch --show`

That’s a porn name for a company.

Soon Linux will be big enough that stores will offer a selection of operating systems. It might be possible already to ask for a custom built PC deal with a discount for no bringing your own OS or having them install it for you.

This could mean that it’s the year of thy Linux desktop 🤔

Now we just need a language with flames in the logq

Wonder what they used for the JS state since it’s dependent on the runtime.

Important note: This release can only be upgraded to if you’re on 10.7 or later. Make sure to update to 10.10 soon or the process might become more manual.

It’s the other way around. Windows will stop supporting kernel level anti-cheat because of Crowdstrike

I use terminal commands to open relevant ide for the project

Having a bunch of plugins built-in means also supported in updates and play nice with each other

I also had issue when I was working on a pycharm project back when I was on windows. During setup it asked me “What’s your name?” and my name has a cheeky accent which Windows was decided should be the name of my Home folder. Home folder also has appdata and whatnon so which the build system didn’t expect to have a an accent in the folder path.

I ended up having to create a different folder and link to it then move all the path configurations to that folder link just so I could get imports working.
