Ok, this is a bit low level but was curious which OS that Nintendo uses. Apparently they have always created their own. The Switch runs an OS named Horizon. It is apparently very specialized. I do not recall ever seeing the equivalent of a Blue Screen of Death on a Nintendo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Switch_system_software#Nintendo#OperatingSystem
Great #website for all of your free internet privacy and operating system needs, if it is missing anything please ask as I have other handy free infotech resources also.
If on a major update your desktop (GNOME, Plasma, Cinnamon, i3, etc) opened a popup asking you to donate, it only appeared once and if you don't ever want to see it there was an option to fully disable it, would you be opposed to this? #Linux#OpenSource#FOSS
I keep hearing how #Windows is showing more and more ads to users, and that's an #OperatingSystem that you're effectively already paying for.
I know you said it'd be a one-time popup, but it sets a precedent that I'm not comfortable with. What if down the track they want to ask for contributors, or advertise one of their paid services/features...?
I see this opening a floodgate of sorts, and I don't like where it could go.
@x42@ercanbrack 2/5 I find a future #vision in which the system #packagemanager (e.g. pacman) would only have to manage packages for the #operatingsystem and all #thirdparty#applications (and #plugins?) would be managed via #flatpak, simply put, intriguing. 😇️
On my computers, I already maintain all third party applications via Flatpak, while pacman takes care of the OS.

Between the space between “it is good actually to move your physical body” and the “body keeps score” is post-modern culture since the Industrial Revolution.
Networked society asked individuals to abstract away their physical and emotional intelligence to The Machine™, which is now a computer in our hands.
