But in the center of a frigid ocean roughly twice the size of the United States, or Switzerland

What? Switzerland is tiny compared to the US?

Steam HW survey: Mac are 1.35%, Linux 1.90%... but is the industry reacting to this? ( store.steampowered.com )

The PC gaming industry (AAA and such) seems more sensible the economy of money around the Apple Platform, for sure. But we're talking about iOS gaming... not exactly what keep the industry busy with complex technologies like RayTracing, cutting edge PBR textures and gigallion of cinematic rendered Quadruple-A art assets....

Because of poor native implementations

Turns out that my motherboard's WiFi antenna is necessary for Bluetooth to work correctly

I was troubleshooting Bluetooth connection today and I thought that this is somehow related to software (PipeWire, bluez, bluetoothd and all that stuff). But no. Apparently Bluetooth barely works when WiFi antenna is disconnected from my ASUS motherboard....

Wifi and bluetooth are often on the same chipset and share the antenna. You'll see this on embedded devices as well.

I just heard about Brazilian Butt Lifts which is a procedure where they take fat deposits from somewhere on your body and place it in your butt?

My question is once this procedure has been completed and say the person really got into some heavy cardio and thus were burning a lot of fat would the body be able to burn the fat that was moved to the buttocks or does it not have the associated blood vessels to enable this?...

I don't have any answer for you but I'm curious if you are considering one

I thought this stopped working after MS pulled the Unix subsystem, as samba was using those attributes to manage the Linux systems?

Do you have any documentation on this by any chance? I don’t really like messing with ad schemas

I learned this one the hard way while being the victim of hate. but it wasn’t until my harasser slipped and threatened physical harm that the police finally did something.

She won’t get arrested and she knows it.

Like a bunch of others, I’ve bought a whack of 8BitDo controllers and all of them have been great, but the price varies.

I’ve been using my controllers with the BLE xbox style adaptor, the 2.4ghz adapter, normal Bluetooth, and wired for when I dock my Deck to the TV. Best performance has been the 2.4ghz and wired for me, but not all of them will work with the 2.4.

Canada stops arms shipments to Israel ( www.lemonde.fr )

Israel has historically been a top receiver of Canadian arms exports, with CAN$21 million worth of military materiel exported to Israel in 2022, according to Radio Canada, following CAN$26 million in shipments in 2021. That places Israel among the top 10 recipients of Canadian arms exports.

Isreal is a terrorist state now. They’ve became the thing they said they’re against.

I support this decision but feel like it’s too late. The damage is well beyond repair.

Copy them to an external drive or another computer, copy them back after.

Chances are you’re gonna wanna wipe the partition table on your switch over so I’d just copy them out then back in. No point over complicating things.

I’d be careful, not every distro plays nice when you do this. In my experience at least.

Lol at the comments in this article.

Also the article is BS. :))

Quality shitpost. Thanks.

Start by not using Manjaro. Seriously this won’t be the first time this happens to you. It’s not a great distro. Consider EndevourOS if you want Arch without the command line install.

Luci ,
@Luci@lemmy.ca avatar

Yeah the picture looks exactly like my experiences with Manjaro. Thanks

Edit: not worth my time. Blocked them.

Ohoh! Let me try!!

I’ve always suspected that Manjaro users might be mostly Linux beginners who installed the distro because a YouTube influencer said to do so because they wanted to play Steam.

Seriously, I used Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Arch, CrunchBang, and Manjaro as daily runners (just to name a few.) Manjaro was a headache that broke so often, the devs had threads about breakage on the official forums for stable fucking upgrades. If you want to talk about Linux beginners, start by talking about their dev team. Fedora Core 2 was a more stable experience.

Do I have it out for Manjaro? You bet my ass I do. It’s a horrible distro that takes a great distro and adds shit you don’t need. It freezes Arch updates that you need and should use. Its GPU driver utility is a garbage collection of scripts that don’t work half the time.

I got sick of having to troubleshoot breakage and complete fresh installs every time the devs screwed up. It’s not stable nor is it bleeding edge.

Want bleeding edge? Use Arch. Manjaro is too many steps behind. Want stability? Use Ubuntu or Fedora. Rock solid experience even if you want to change DEs or DMs. Want to take a gamble on every update? Manjaro and Mint are ready to ruin your day! At least the Mint devs know they are just Ubuntu with codecs and a shitty DE.

Manjaro? So it will break after a few updates?

Edit: I want more competition. Don’t get me wrong. The more handhelds, the more linux, the more innovation!!

I used it as a daily for about 2 years. The cert issues is just negligence but I had major package breaking and found the NVIDIA configuration they used to be broken.

Looked great and ran awesome on first install it felt like if you don’t update right away you’re gonna hurt.

Luci ,

Even a non-aur build has broken for me. You cannot just take a snapshot of a bleeding edge distro and call it stable and then blame the end users when a normal operation like building from source breaks things (because that’s all the AUR really is. As long as you meet the dependencies, the software in the AUR should just work, I’ve used pkgbuild files to compile stuff from source and use on RHEL without issue)

I’ve been burned by Manjaro a few times, I refuse to let it go.

Some people in this thread are claiming the article doesn’t mention Facebook.

I actually read the article. You’re welcome.

When you click on a link in the Facebook or Instagram apps, the website loads in a special browser built into the app, rather than your phone’s default browser. In 2022, privacy researcher Felix Krause found that Meta injects special “keylogging” JavaScript onto the website you’re visiting that allows the company to monitor everything you type and tap on, including passwords. Other apps including TikTok do the same thing.

Edit: The article Proton got their info from.
