Microsoft seems to have deleted all their old blog posts around it (at least all the links to their responses 404 now), but…
In 2011, they were going to require it to be enabled for all products if they wanted to announce Windows 8 support.
After huge backlash, they changed it to allow motherboard companies to disable it for X years (since I can’t find the original, I can’t say the exact length of time)
But their original goal was for it to never be allowed to be disabled
I’m surprised at using ntfs-3g these days, but one major difference is that ntfs-3g uses FUSE in userspace.
Paragon has an in-kernel driver that is much faster, although I would expect your distro already includes it.
You can check with something like cat /boot/config-* | grep NTFS3_FS
I never really looked into what they were doing with KPTI.
Assuming it’s accurate, that first one is a much better technical description, even if it was intended to spell FUCKWIT
Ah. That makes sense, then. Thanks!
Any idea why that’s needed when Organic Maps doesn’t?
My understanding is this is an early fork?
To add about defaults from what other posters have shown…
I don’t remember if this was there on Debian 12, but at least when you’re on Debian 13 later this year, you can go to “Settings” in Discover and select if you want Debian or Flatpak to be the default source
nvtop, while it sounds like it’s nvidia, is brand agnostic It actually stands for “neat videocard top”
It’ll show per process usage of memory and compute usage on most GPUs
He’s on video congratulating people like Charles Schwab making 2.5 billion dollars from his constantly changing tariffs, so…
Probably that. Occam’s razor and all
Yeah, their branding makes it harder to recover.
I don’t know how they’ll change their versioning in the future, so I just went with that.
If they don’t make an obvious split to when the extension system is stable, they may never get that new beloved version like KDE managed
GNOME 2 was different and easy to customize
GNOME is still in their KDE 4.x days where it needs time to mature.
KDE 3 was loved, KDE 4 made a ton of breaking changes, and was reviled. KDE 5/6 are now butter smooth and fixed all the issues from the 3 -> 4 transition
GNOME 4/5 will probably come back into the loved category if they start stabilizing the extension system some more
Oh, damn. He’s going against Trump’s statements here, so Trump is certainly asking someone to google how he can fire the VP.
Could lead for some funny interactions soon
I think you agreed with me?
I said the people who say Linux is so hard are the people that have learned so much about Windows that it’s ingrained in them. So when they try to switch, they get frustrated that it isn’t exactly the same
The vocal people saying it’s harder have a lot of experience with Windows, and know how to work around all of its deficiencies after being a power user dealing with it for 15+ years
With that mindset and not wanting to start over, Windows is easier
For casual users or someone who’s willing to learn, Linux is easier
They already have one: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum
Offering another empty promise is unlikely to cause them to make concessions again
Fixed, thanks
Their statement is that Alpine is designed such that it is friendlier to corporations who want to lock down their devices and prevent you from modifying them.
You cannot use coreutils and have a DRM locked down device.
You can use Alpine w/ musl + busybox and make a DRM locked down device
Alpine’s licensing favors large corporation’s rights in preventing the user from modifying their device
Operating systems using coreutils favor the end user’s rights
If they can take my unlocked device by force, they can probably also break my fingers to coerce me to unlock it See also: https://xkcd.com/538/
Randall is right in pointing out you need to consider your attack vectors, but this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take reasonable precautions
Most people are more likely to run into the type of attack OP references than someone who can break LUKS encryption stealing their device
I wasn’t confident which requirement you were missing, but I love that error
Depending on how you had it installed, Alpaca split support in the Flatpaks.
If you want AMD support, you need to install
