It has built in package manager now (winget install Mozilla.Firefox would install Firefox on clean Win11 installation).

But what about Linux distributions compiled without GNU tools? Most popular Linux distribution's kernel currently is compiled with Clang, not GCC, and as far as I am aware does not include anything from GNU. Of course Linux is historically influenced by GNU, but in current day and age they are orthogonal

FFXIV also has this model, and tbf, every sub-based MMO. ESO, for instance, also requires you to buy latest expansions to be able to play it.

Your character is not a slave. (Spoilers limited to promotional materials) Player character is the oldest son of the ruler of one of the major countries in the game world, so a prince. Ability to wield (very specific) magic is quickly explained that some of the nobles of that family can do. He somewhat is a slave at some point, but this is a very brief story moment (tbf at the very beginning, you meet your character as a slave before he goes into childhood memory where he is a prince). When relevant, NPCs do interact with character as with slave, but its rarely relevant. So it is very much a background theme, even if a major one.

I am switching between Sync for Lemmy and ReVanced clients for Reddit, generally since Lemmy doesn't have enough content that is interesting for me (ff14 community is basically dead on Lemmy, random maghjong riichi content is not there on Lemmy, world/news is basically the same as my meduza feed instead of random "what's around the globe", specific/non-general memes are not there, discussions are not active).
I hope it improves with time. I much prefer the notion of ActivityPub than that of centralized SM, but I guess the only real way forward is to force content gatekeepers to implement open apis...

How is Tailscale different from ZeroTier in this setup?

That is an entirely different argument which I did not contest and the comment I have answered to did not make

EDIT: Although, it depends on what we define as "bigger". Binary size is certainly bigger, but user adoption is abysmal comparatively.

Why would I discount the most popular applications of the kernel? That is almost the whole userbase

Finished FF16 recently, a great experience, but somewhat disappointed that there aren't superbosses in the base game Now going through Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, and the influence from PLvsPW cannot be underestimated

On Android I use Re:Work, like interface the best. Before that I have used previous app from the same developer (I think it was Nine mail?).

On Windows I really disliked Thunderbird, so currently testing out emClient.

I use SteelSeries Arctis 9, its station has PlayStation toggle for what I assume PS compatibility. They are wireless, sound is good IMO, but Mic is not that great (usable though). I also like that they connect to my phone via Bluetooth, often use this while watching YouTube/listening podcast waiting for food delivery, courier calls, KDE Connect puts media on pause, I answer "hands free" from the same headset

how do things like the feeds work?

So what actually happens under the hood is when one instance communicates first time with another instance it builds some local cache of that remote instance. Then, when you open "All", you get everything from your local instance + things cached/requested from other instances. Admins can defederate an instance, in which case you would not see anything from it.

Since there's no algorithm is everything from Lemmy.world only going to show up on the popular feed (if I'm on that instance) or can other things like lemmy.ee or whatever also show up?

Everything federated will show up.

And can I comment on posts from a different instance or does that vary per instance?

If federated, you can both see and post both posts and comments on any instance from your home one.

could Lemmy theoretically allow content from those instances to be cross-posted here?

It could. More than that, Mastodon users currently can both subscribe to Lemmy instances and post/comment. It looks kinda weird since they mention post author/community or whomever they answer to in a comment, since they see it as if it looked like Twitter.

I see, good to know. I didn't know about Tailscale so wasnt aware that it is a frontend for WireGuard. Although have to comment that ZeroTier is its own protocol

That's not exactly true, we also watched Krtek and Nu Pogodi in out childhoods, and both nations are considered "glum" (as never smiling) and cynical (and the correlation between being educated and being cynical, sometimes to the point of dark humor), relatively recent urbanisation. Otherwise, yes, of course, things are different, there is almost as much common with Bulgaria or Croatia

his home treated him as honorable and other cultures don't

Not the point of the story, when NPCs get to know who the character is theirs opinion changes

it wasn't because they mistook him for being the kind of person you get to do that to

That is actually almost what happened. If he was not a mage, that story point would change little.

The "mages are slaves" thing is more akin to FF6's "there is no magic in this world", like it is a somewhat big deal that Terra is mage, but game doesn't spend much time there since it is not a point.

You cant exchange millions of dollars (but tbf you couldn't do that easily in the best times), but people can exchange theirs money into euro and dollar for that rate (realistic limit is $10k/month, but there are legal ways to cricumvent that limit). To say "you cant actually exchange USD to RUB" is untrue.

That is a valid, but still different argument. Exchange rate still exists for average Joe (or Ivan), it isn't North Korea (yet?)
