Ugh, Windows' short support life for #Windows 10 is far more egregious due to its absurd hardware requirements. The amount of e-waste that's going to be generated in October of 2025 is going to be ridiculous, and #Microsoft should pay for that.
Microsoft is about to kick off BUILD, and showing new Windows on ARM PCs! AZ is suing Amazon over unfair business practices! iFixit digs even deeper into how much wireless charging sucks. And maybe the Dead Internet theory is true?
This notification in the #Windows start menu is to get me to sign in so they can serve ads all over the OS, right? No thanks. #Microsoft#enshittification
#MSYS and #Cygwin are really useful when one is running #Windows :windows8:
Of course, #WSL helps to.
I just personally like the integration of #Cygwin and #MSYS
Hey #gaming#nerds, I have a question. Is there anything like a "container" to run #games in? I want to run some older games, but don't want to dirty up my main #Windows install with whatever interesting choices their developers made back in the #Win95 days. I've considered running a #VM with #Linux and playing the games with #Proton or #WINE, but thought I'd ask here first.
@LouisIngenthron I have installed four(?) different distros in the last week, and they all went in fine except vanilla #Debian, which I don't know how I screwed it up, but I did. #Ubuntu, #LinuxMint, and #PopOS were all just as easy as #Windows was once upon a time: click "ok" a bunch until you hit a welcome screen. Notably absent was the requirement that I sign into their exclusive service to even use the software.
I'm looking to replace my family's laptop used mostly for web browsing, word processing, and making sure my cross platform apps work. I have a Framework Laptop 16 AMD Ryzen in pre-order which is supposed to ship next month.
Would a Surface Pro 9 or a Thinkpad X13s be a good choice for this use case?
Dla osób, które mają trochę starszy PESEL (starszy, niż 2000 rok), to pewnie ucieszy ta nowina :). #Kodźródłowy#Winamp będzie udostępniony 24 września 2024 :)
Ten post głównie zainteresuje adminów linuksowych, ale inni użytkownicy Linuksa także będą zadowoleni.
Wczoraj odkryłem ciekawy program, którego szukałem od lat :). Mowa o programie #termshark. Z wyglądu i funkcjonalności przypomina program na desktopa o nazwie #Wireshark.
Z opisu wynika, że obsługuje także inne platformy:
It's insane thinking about how #iPhone has nailed touch scrolling right out of the bat from the first phone, and #Android phones still have not figured out how to do it right. Not just on touchscreens but on trackpads too, only #Apple has managed making something as "simple" as touch scrolling as intuitive, magical, and true to life (instant response, the exact amount of weight and inertia as you'd expect from what you just did with your finger) SYSTEM WIDE (and not app-dependent) while #Windows laptops still makes you feel like you're better off with a mouse. I use an Apple Magic Trackpad on my #Linux PC and it feels great and was one of the best investments I've made, but it will never be as good as it'd be on #macOS and that feels like a crime. Since no one has figured it out, I unjokingly wish the EU or CCP make it compulsory for Apple to teach everyone else in the industry how to implement this seemingly simple thing, so right.
