People should do whatever the hell they like.
There’s no harm in trying out a lot of different distros for the fun of it if that’s what you find entertaining, and it’s educational to see the state of what’s out there.
Not needing to stay locked to a specific distro is part of why Linux is great, and very unlike Mac or Windows.
If you like being loyal then be loyal, that’s a fine choice too, and freedom of choice is what this is all about.
I had so many good times on forums back in the day.
The personal nature of them was great for being social and making friends, but it was also good for the quality of the content for and user behaviour too.
When everyone recognises you and remembers your past behaviour, people put effort into creating a good reputation for themselves and making quality posts. It’s like living in a small village versus living in a city.
The thought of being banned back then genuinely filled people with dread, because even if you could evade it (which many people couldn’t as VPNs were barely a thing) you’d lose your whole post history and personal connection with people, and users did cherish those things.
Super wholesome manga about an amazing teacher who guides a bunch of misfits to overcome their own weaknesses, grow as individuals, and learn to work together
But yeah sure its got guns and panties so it’s obviously bad right ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The answer is very much “Don’t run Photoshop”
(Fuck Adobe. There, I said it)
There’s multiple ways to take that
Although, these stats are people who would consider giving up cars, among those who currently own one.
People who don’t need a car and already don’t have one won’t appear in these figures
If you imagine the perfect fictional country, then for that country the bar chart should theoretically be at 0% - because that would mean everyone who doesn’t need a car doesn’t have one, and anyone who does own a car needs it very strictly for jobs only a car can do, no matter how good the transport infrastructure and planning and zoning are.
Pop!_OS is the next big

This may be a nonsense suggestion but is the game trying to activate the headphone mic?
If so this could be switching it to a different mode and cutting your headset audio quality in half.
EDIT: two other people suggested the same thing at the same time, never mind :)
This is great, honestly.
If you go back to antiquity, education was about philosophy. It was about learning how to observe, and think critically, and see the world for what it is.
And then in modern times, education became about memorisation - learning facts and figures and how to do this and that. And that way of teaching and learning just doesn’t fit any longer with what our digital age has become.
In my opinion, we are heavily overdue for a revamp of what education should be, and what skills are most important to society in this post-truth world. Critical thinking is an important foundation to real knowledge that we don’t teach enough.
The number one thing I noticed after installing Linux on my old macbook was that the battery life was immediately halved.
I totally expected that to happen, though, because my previous experience had always been that power management on Linux was kinda terrible.
Time to try this out and see!
It was weird to me too.
In fairness to the author, I can find a way to speak those two words aloud in a way that works, and sounds like something someone could genuinely say, but that requires a pretty specific stress and pitch.
You’re already!
But the first time you read the words it’s just not going to come out like that.
And that’s the problem. As a writer you can’t just put words on the page the same way you yourself might speak them, and expect people to read it that way. The spoken word does not translate perfectly to writing.
You need to have an awareness of how people are likely to parse the words on the page, and choose wording that doesn’t cause people to trip or stumble, even if it isn’t the exact phrasing you’d use in organic speech.
The comic fails on that at the final line.
You answered your own question. If OP can’t use it, maybe they’ll buy a subscription, thinks Adobe.
Super scummy.
Right, and what I’m saying is there’s basically zero incentive for corporations to ever take action, because SAYING you will be doing it has all the image, PR and revenue benefits, but without needing to even ACTUALLY do it. And then later you just quietly forget about it, like this.
The only way companies will ever take action is if governments legally mandate them to (and even then maybe not!)
Yep. Any promised future targets are just marketing hype.
Then: “Eco-friendly is really trending now, we’ll base our image around that”
Now: “It’s more profitable to drop the eco targets, so were dropping them”
Nice answer.
To put this into real-example terms, when you buy something like a box of name-brand cereal, that will have the same barcode everywhere it is sold in the country, because it’s literally printed on the box from the factory, and it is unique by manufacturer so there is no reason to change it.
But when you buy a head of broccoli, the product has come from lots of different farms, and if it has a barcode at all it would be applied by the store themselves when it’s prepared for sale. This means Safeway would probably have a different product code for broccoli than Walmart does, but all Safeway stores would use the same for broccoli as they belong to the same chain.
They are all brilliant
Because then your browser would itself have to be a torrent client.
The way torrents download is fundamentally different from how a standard http download works, which is why they have a specialist implementation. Browsers dont want to bother bringing a whole load of new code and associated bugs into the browser to do a job which isn’t really connected with the browser’s main responsibility, which is browsing the web.
Just because torrents come from the web shouldn’t make it the browser’s responsibility to deal with them.
