Jirard never seemed like the type of guy to pull something like this and I really want to see his response but having the money just sit there (and hopefully still there) for years is a really bad look for him. At the very least he was just clueless but that’s still damaging taking into account all the lies on the charity streams

I lost interest in new releases a while ago. I mainly play retro games now but I did try the new robocop and it was great. I will be getting that day 1 and it will be the first time I played a new release in years.

Not necessarily UI but the overuse of javascript on most websites. It makes browsing the web on low power and old devices a nightmare.

Yeah it’s great, It’s never been a better time to be a Linux user. There’s always something to look forward to and we get more support every year. I’m going to give cosmic a shot when they release it.

Seeing how he looks now is incredibly sad. I really hope he makes it though this.

That’s reassuring. I thought anyone outside of the US would think this is a disgusting calorie bomb. I mean it is but fuck it, I’ll have it.

I’m American so to me this looks good.

• Colloid GTK Theme (Colloid-Dark)
• Papirus (Papirus-Dark)
• Adwaita Cursor Theme

I used the Equilux GTK theme for years but it’s been abandoned since 2018 and GNOME has changed a lot since then. I switched to Colloid and it didn’t take much to tweak it to my liking, mainly reducing the size of the titlebar and panel.

I wish. Even xfce will get wayland support before they do.

There’s no better platform on the fediverse because of how many people are here.

If there’s a game that can’t run on Linux in the current year then that’s intentional and it’s not worth anyone’s money.

Hopefully the day of RISC-V overthrowing x86 is sooner than we think. Progress on development has been fast and it’s very exciting.

“consumer-grade”

Yeah, that’s the point. Again, the average user (as in desktop user) gains nothing from using a different init. There may have been some crazy server-side scenario where the type of init you used actually mattered but we’re talking about desktop Linux, which the answer is a clear-cut no. I’m not stopping the people that are interested in trying a different init out, I’m just telling them that there’s little to no benefit in the end if they’re expecting an improvement in performance or whatever else.

Enlightenment is such an underrated desktop but development for it is very slow moving. Only a few people work on it and most likely in their spare time but for what it does and how little resources it pulls makes it very impressive. It’s pretty much a fully featured desktop and only takes a little over 100mb

Back when systemd was a hot topic I jumped on the bandwagon of using systemd-less distros just because people were telling me how bad it was. To this day I still use openrc but the reality is that systemd works very well and is easy to understand and use. The average user gains no benefit to using another init besides having a better understanding of how the system works.

I browse on lemmy now but I still use my reddit account for a few subs like r/crtgaming and r/toonami

Yeah. Install steam.
