The HDMI forum is run by big companies so that is not happening, sorry

Meta plans to work with ActivityPub, a vendor that already partners with Mastodon and is currently working on a deal with Tumblr. The agreement isn’t finalized yet, but has been referenced in press releases announcing Threads.

Lol. The author of this article is braindead and has no Idea what he's writing about. ActivityPub is an open standard not a vendor. There can't be an agreement because there's no one to agree with. All they will do is implement the standard

Linux has a merged mitigation so when the new kernel comes out Linux users will be safe

But that's something new to learn and configure. I just want to code why should I spend my time learning another text editor when vscodium is fine

What? This meme is about a transaction between two trans people but that doesn't mean all Paypal users are trans. But I agree that PayPal is proprietary software and should be banished. I will delete my account now. I planned to do it for a while but haven't got around to it yet

Let's see how well it works before congratulating. I have a hunch it won't work well

I would like to ask that woman if she is pregnant right now. If not, call her a hypocrite

I think Snap has the potential to be better than Flatpak. It's a real sandbox instead of the half-assed shit Flatpak has going on. The problem I have with Snap is that Canonical keeps the Server closed-source. I don't want a centralized app store where Canonical can just choose to remove apps they don't like. So as long as the Server is closed-source, I will stay on Flatpak

Why do you choose to be so hateful? The man is doing good work for the linux gaming community. If you don't enjoy his content, don't watch it but let others have their fun

If you just want a terminal you can install termux from github right now. No need for a custom ROM. It will be fairly locked down but you can use almost all programs that there are for linux. I use yt-dlp in Termux to download youtube videos

I bet that is Microsoft getting scared, that the Steam Deck is taking it's market share and paying Lenovo etc. to make Windows handhelds.

The UX will never be as good as the Steam Deck though since Windows just isn't made for that

It's easy. Just open up a terminal and type

kill $PID

(Replace the $PID with the process id of the process) if you don't know the process id you can do

killall process_name

If these don't work you can add a -9 to banish them and give them no chance to resist

Did that a Year ago and it felt great. Just told all my friends and family "I use Signal now, if you want to chat with me use that". Everyone I cared about switched and it did a great job filtering out fake friends too

It would be the greatest news I've heard in 2 years if that where to happen

This happens, because the stupid windows bootloader installs itself onto the same partition as the fedora bootloader instead of making it's own. So when you reinstall fedora, the windows bootloader is deleted. Look up how to reinstall windows bootloader

They wouldn't get banned. That's the problem. The article mandates that these certificates are exempt from the usual repercussions for acting out

Critical security fixes are backported. There where a lot of kernels released yesterday that had the fix. For 5.15, 5.15.122 was released with the zenbleed mitigation.

Me and you, because I'm unlovable too <3

Yeah it's alright. I've been using Tumbleweed on my Desktop PC for the last few months and I gotta say it's mid. They do hard drive unlocking in Grub instead of in the initfs which means that only LUKS 1 and with that only the not-so-secure PDKDF is supported, instead of argon2id which is the modern KDF you want to use. This is a small and annoying oversight in the distros security which is why I will not be using it in the future

You can just take out the sd card while reinstalling

This list is mostly not software. It's free as in free beer but free software mostly describes free as in freedom. That means open source and free to copy, redistribute and modify. Which a lot of these are not

Probably just the dudes on snapchat taxing. If you know the right people you can get it for cheaper

I disagree. Have you ever updated your Android or Iphone to a newer version of the OS? Did it seem complex there? I'd say no and on Linux Desktop it's not different.

No. You can only return a single type from the function. You could return the serde_json::Value though so that the code calling this function can get the value it needs itself

Are you installing Void Linux by any chance?

It's gotten much better in the past few years ln mobile. Firefox for Android has Ublock installed out of the box. You just need to enable it.

And to block trackers in every other app you can use something like TrackerControl on Fdroid. Duckduckgo also has a similar application but I don't trust them and it's probably not open source

You can do

ps aux | grep -i 

and the PID is in the second column of the output. However for this use case I recommend a process manager like htop or btop

Not entirely true. The mullvad browser adds a lot of anti-tracking stuff, which was originally implemented in the TOR Browser. So you're definitely safer using the mullvad browser instead of plain Firefox

U are evil >:,(

Flatpak is good for chat apps and proprietary apps which you don't want to have full access to your system

But does it know where it is?

If you want to put in a little effort: Youtube Revanced is the official Youtube app without ads

It is not free software but it is open source. Stop gatekeeping the term. I can look at the code and modify it to my hearts content. I can also watch as the project is being developed. That means it's open source. It would be free software if you where also allowed to redistribute it but I can fully see why they do not want that

Depends on if you want to work with existing code. LLMs tend to be good at generating small code snippets but not good at understanding / finding errors in existing code
