Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads (www.techradar.com)

Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....

They’re talking about the fact that Netflix isn’t removing the feature from their Android/iOS apps

It doesn’t really matter if you make piracy more difficult if you don’t make it impossible. Only one person has to figure out how to rip it, then everyone else can watch it

Buying a Tesla would be a huge mistake then

I don’t think he meant an AI from the book, I think he meant the actual Hitchhiker’s Guide. The one that says don’t panic on the cover

It’s undefined in math, but not floating point arithmetic

It’s not about cis bad, it’s about “I don’t want to be called cis, I want to be called normal”

Doesn’t matter if I have the right of way, I’m not walking into the other lane (going 35 mph) and hoping they don’t kill me

I believe instances generate the preview as soon as it’s federated. The problem is that if you have many followers, each of their instances will try to generate a preview at the same time

isn’t neon the flagship kde distro?

I know you can get most of the KDE Connect features with GSConnect. I assume clipboard sharing works too?

ReveredOxygen,
@ReveredOxygen@sh.itjust.works avatar

Correct. But if you install gnome, it comes with default configs

ReveredOxygen,
@ReveredOxygen@sh.itjust.works avatar

You can get the switcher in KDE, but you can’t get a real equivalent to gnome’s view. In gnome you can press super to get the overview, but you can also type to open programs. There’s no way to do that in KDE afaik. It’s the main thing keeping me from KDE

In the case where you took everything out though, there’s no bags for it to get stuck on. There’s no need for it to slam itself

su needs root’s password sudo su just needs your password

Windows just sucks at handling Bluetooth. It’s ridiculous that you can’t change audio codecs, or choose between handsfree and high quality audio. You have to let windows guess at both

You can change flatpak permissions with flatseal (you’ll need to install it). A lot of them have absolutely braindead defaults It’s really not great to get in the habit of installing random debs from the Internet. Aside from being a massive security issue, you’ll never get updates. If mint repos don’t get updated though, I suppose that’s the easiest workaround

ReveredOxygen,
@ReveredOxygen@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah when you’re downloading from sites like those, there’s not a security risk anymore. The thing is that Linux software generally expects you to be using a package manager, so it doesn’t update itself. When you download and install debs, you lose auto update functionality. But when you’re on a distro like mint with old packages, that doesn’t really matter since you’re not getting up to date software through the repos anyway

Bezos distributes them to employees, but I’m not aware of him using them himself

Ah, right. That’s fine with integer scaling, but if you try to use fractional scaling with xrandr, it gets all blurry. I’ll consider 2x scaling though
