That doesn’t guarantee 100% privacy on a densely populated area anymore. Nowadays you’ve stuff like Amazon Sidewalk and who knows who’s partner and what devices are in it.

Okay, but then the TV is still running all the same spyware.
Update: just disabling wifi doesn’t guarantee 100% privacy anymore on a densely populated area. Nowadays you’ve stuff like Amazon Sidewalk and who knows who’s partner and what devices are in it.
vbox is easy until it starts saying vt-d isn’t enabled and refuses to start when it fact it is.
Maybe it can be installed in Debian 12 now without much trouble…
Yeah, all for security. I’ve been “complaining” about this for a while. :)
Tldr; Ubuntu clones a macOS feature (from 2019) that actually makes sense.
I get that a lot of people hate on GNOME too for being annoying to customise and being highly opinionated but I think that’s the key to getting the average person interested in Linux.
I agree with this ideia, however GNOME lacks desktop icons and forces people into an activities view - all stuff that said average people don’t want to deal with. GNOME isn’t already dominating the DE space, and we still have other DEs, because of their poor decisions based on a “vision” that revolves around reinventing the wheel ever 2 years or so.
and yeah having access to programs like the MS apps is important but it’s not like that has to come before having an appealing desktop
This is one of the major hurdles with Linux desktop and the Steam Deck just confirmed it. People like the ones you’re talking about require software, be it Adobe, MS Office, Autodesk or some other and without it there’s no way they’re going to move. Alternatives may work for some isolated people but if you’re collaborating with people that expect those proprietary formats it won’t just work out.
You can’t just go it alone with free software when all your colleagues expect you to use proprietary tools
Yeah that’s my point.
So your take is that instead of trying to make Windows binaries run Linux it would be way easier to just get macOS binaries because it is all BSD. That’s an interesting take indeed.
Dead like any other Linux distro that is mainly a desktop.
The thoughtful, capable, and ethical replacement for Windows and macOS comes with a carefully considered set of apps that cater to everyday needs
Here’s the issue, elementary OS is made for regular people who want a computer that works, an attempt at replicating macOS, and that same group of people need proprietary software like MS Office that isn’t available under Linux. The alternatives won’t cut it for people once they’ve to collaborate with other who use the proprietary stuff.
elementary OS is essentially a misguided marketing exercise where the founders / company failed to study and understand their target market.
I don’t really get why the KDE guys still insist on this atrocious lack of padding / spacing between UI elements. Even Microsoft figured this out by now.
Yeah but at the same time you’ve ISPs that deploy routers that can initiate GRE tunnels between your network and their side for “support”.
Exactly that’s a job for the parser / consumer.
No, I’m kind of serious, the comment situation is already solved in JSON… about the rest yeah, Yaml might be easier but the different isn’t that much. Non tech people can’t edit Yaml properly either so.
There’s a lot of JSON parsers that don’t mind to see comments there, just ignore them. And there’s also the “_comment” / “$comment” thing.
Yes, they could’ve just used JSON. Totally pointless waste of time.
Finally a decent Linux tablet that can actually replace many laptops. Only thing is that it would’ve been great with an i3-N300.
While I don’t disagree with you about the potential of those alternatives they won’t cut it for the average graphic designer… usually not due to the lack of features but most likely because of the network effects / dominant position that Adobe holds over their field. People who need to collaborate with others and are pressured to get stuff done can’t afford the slightest compatibility issue.
Not specifically for amazon devices, they’ve opened up the network to “selected partners”, I believe Samsung isn’t on the list but that may happen at any point and to be fair did you read the ToS to know if they don’t have something similar already? What are their plans?
