Neither would I. They can deduct it from the running tab of money vending machines have stolen from me over the years, the pricks.

Fuck that ‘new outlook’ garbage.

Yep, IT worker here and all of our client machines run Windows 11 with all the usual Office 365 stuff. Most of our servers run Windows too. A small amount of servers are Linux-based, usually VMware hosts and some virtual appliances. Broadcom is fucking us over a barrel on VMware licensing/support but the inertia is so strong that the powers that be won’t even entertain migrating to something like Proxmox. Something something Gartner top quadrant…

Work provides us relatively decent Dell Latitude hardware but we are stuck using the corporate Windows 11 image.

If they’d let us bring our own tech I’d be on a Thinkpad running Fedora and just use remote desktop to access all of the Microsoft shit.

KDE got upgraded to a mainline version in 43, not just a separate spin.

I play a bunch of Steam games on it. I also have some Epic and GoG stuff through Heroic Launcher. I haven’t tried any pirated stuff.

I have that 8bitdo C64-styled keyboard. It has kailh box white v2 switches and aspherical keycaps, and I love that combination. Just feels right to my fingers and sounds great too.

I’ve become quite the fan of Fedora with KDE. Running Fedora 43 on both my couch Thinkpad and my gaming desktop. Only issue I’m having with it is sleep functionality on the desktop, which just sucks (it likes to not wake up from sleep) so I have that set to not go to sleep, just turn the screen off when idle.

Host based means the printer has no real brains of its own and depends on the computer driving it to do everything. Sort of like the Winmodems of the ‘90s. Feature-reduced cost-cutting.

I’ve just been avoiding nvidia the last couple of times I bought a GPU because they were so goddamn expensive, lol. It is just super convenient that this coincided with me starting to game on Linux.

GTA4 (with fusion fix) is a great example of this. Runs like dogshit on my system with Windows 11, runs butter smooth on the same hardware running Fedora 43.

x64-compatible CPUs have been the norm for a very long time now, which is why most modern distros have dropped support for older 32-bit x86-only CPUs. Debian dropped it with Debian 13, so anything based on that - think Ubuntu, Mint, and others, would be in the same boat. 2GB of RAM would be pretty performance-limiting on most modern distros too.

That’s one of the reasons why things like Tiny Core and Puppy exist, though. Specifically for old/slow-by-today’s-standards systems. I haven’t used any of them because I’m not running anything that old, and I quite like modern KDE. I saw an Action Retro video on youtube the other day where he got Tiny Core running on a Pentium 133 with 128MB of RAM, lol.

Reddit is trash these days

So then, why’d you make all those bold claims? Dipshit.

Rumor has it their garbage AI thinks they are hacking techniques.

Absolutely, I’ve never heard anyone say a bad word about him.

I’m also so very glad that cunt McGregor got nowhere with his bid.

Anyone got problems updating from Jellyfin 10.10.7 on the LXC built on the Proxmox community scripts? Mine is running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and when I try to upgrade it shows the jellyfin-server package as being kept back. When I dig deeper it says it is because of an unresolved dependency on libicu70. I don’t know how to fix that.

The following packages have unmet dependencies: jellyfin-server : Depends: libicu70 but it is not installable

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Enshittification intensifies

Ah, The Daily Heil strikes again.
