Hello, tone-policing genocide-defender and/or carnist 👋
Instead of being mad about words, maybe you should think about why the words bother you more than the injustice they describe.
Have a day!

No. Even on standard Android, you must enter the password/PIN on first unlock because that is required to load the decryption keys that make biometric authentication work.


On #3: every modern phone running encryption has a BFU (before-first-unlock) state where the data on the device is more secure than after its first unlock because you haven’t entered your password/PIN to decrypt the data. GrapheneOS also has this, but it is not unique to GOS.


Yes. I use SteamOS and Bazzite (I have multiple TVs with different computers for this) with Steam Big Picture mode as my sole streaming interface. Here are some decent Linux apps for various streaming services:
Just add those as “non-steam games” and you’re mostly good to go. For some apps, like Jellyfin, you need to enable keyboard navigation (a.k.a. “gamepad controls”).
Get yourself one of these if you’d like a mostly seamless remote control experience (depending on how well each streaming app/wrapper works with keyboard/gamepad navigation). Easily the best $25 I ever spent.
Mic support for M2s just leaves one thing that I miss on Asahi: running the display at 120Hz.
The Asahi team is doing an amazing job turning Apple hardware into my favorite Linux device!

DOA.


In the show,
John Cena
says something to the effect of:
“there are still cows, which need to be milked” 🤡
Why do they need to be milked? Are you still raping them? Picking an apple is considered harmful, but raping animals, stealing their young, and then their sustenance is totally fine?
The show basically requires you to be a bloodmouth for that to make sense, which is annoying. If you ignore that giant plot hole, it’s pretty interesting though.


I just wrap bash snippets in bash -c '<snippet goes here>' and I have a great time with Fish that way.
Your move, Rust. I’d love to see it happen.
I hope you’re right. Games have run like dogshit for at least the past 5 years or so, even with reasonably powerful hardware.
Unfortunately, I’m not very optimistic because of the Unreal Engine monoculture (except for a bunch of blessed indie games) in the gaining industry. It would most likely be Epic’s job to make their engine not perform like shit, which… 😬


Good. LLMs are a fucking blight on the world and every company that pushes that dogshit deserves to implode.


Valid :) I wouldn’t either.


They should try making good games and putting them on Steam and GOG and not their shitty launcher.
It’s so satisfying watching one of the worst actors in the gaming industry eat shit and die. I hope Activision, EA, and the other purveyors of overpriced, malware-laden, microtransaction slopware can meet the same fate one day too.


Zig isn’t memory safe by default. Safety needs to be opted-in to, which isn’t free.
And merely recompiling C projects with the (very good) Zig toolchain wouldn’t add any form of memory safety whatsoever as far as I’m aware. You can get some safety checks that way, but you still have to fix the buggy C code manually, which is a nontrivial task in best-case scenarios.


If you’re expecting stability for any Ubuntu release, that went out the window when Canonical started forcing Snaps.
But non-LTS Ubuntu releases have always been a testing ground for less-than-stable changes. uutils is just one of them, and the only way to make them stable is to see how they’re being used in the wild.
Via a bundled script.
