The GNU organization just announced a Linux phone a couple weeks ago
- Comment on Donald Trump ‘Blowing Bubba’ Message in Epstein Emails Under Scrutiny 1 day ago:
Bubba is Bill Clinton. I think it’s been his nickname since he was a kid. It definitely was throughout his political career.
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 day ago:
BlackBerry had a separate walled/secured android instance a long time ago. I wish that more people bought the phone. Jolla is interesting, but I really want the banking apps to work.
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 day ago:
You mean the one with PlayStation integration? Fuck yeah.
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 day ago:
Having a Linux phone that chroot compartments for Android apps is the dream.
- Comment on FFmpeg to Google: Fund Us or Stop Sending Bugs 3 days ago:
Seriously. They sent in a bug from a LucasArts game using a codec nobody uses anymore. You think that YouTube, Netflix, Instagram, anything with video, etc. would be a little more thankful considering their business is based on using FOSS codecs.
- Comment on Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows 1 week ago:
Which I’m sure is much higher than windows games working on windows. Proton is awesome for old games.

Nah, obesity and high cholesterol is the top cause of heart disease, but smoking is also a major risk factor. Both are awful for you. Just drink the coffee and pursue an affair like a good Frenchman.

Unfortunately, the one on the right may be more healthy

Use Linux
- Comment on Progress 3 weeks ago:
I switched my house for a shitty apartment and I’m never going back. I switched my car for a streetcar and bus ride and I’m never going back. I switched my wife for being single, and she’s never coming back.
- Comment on Xubuntu website hijacked to serve malware 3 weeks ago:
I doubt they bothered to change them. And, if you know how to check hashes then you wouldn’t run an exe file to download an ISO.
- Comment on Xubuntu website hijacked to serve malware 3 weeks ago:
Poor new Linux users. You choose a good starting distribution. This sucks hard. Linux isos are not exe files. You can also check the hash files, but I don’t know anyone that does that on their personal PC.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, the lack of mass production causes higher prices. Framework and system76 are doing good things and deserve support. However, the issue imo is a legislative one. You should be forced to purchase an operating system with your hardware.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 3 weeks ago:
ChromeOS and android are about to be the same thing. I know you can buy laptops with Linux for a while (e.g., RHEL on IBM/Lenovo machine); however, it is definitely not the norm. It’s getting much better now, but if you want your choice of hardware it’s probably going to ship with windows. MacOS is quickly becoming a walled Garden too. I just want to be refunded for an operating system that I immediately wipe, and everyone else should too.

And for some reason when I buy a laptop I need to also pay for that disgusting spyware. How is the scam still going on?
- Comment on ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day 1 month ago:
If the spyware/tracking started and ended at the cell tower it would be a good start. I’m not sure the sensor data would be sent to the tower either. It would just be a general area.
- Comment on ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day 1 month ago:
A proper Linux phone cannot come soon enough
- Comment on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme crushes Apple M4, Intel, and AMD in new benchmarks 1 month ago:
M1 still doesn’t have full Linux support, unfortunately. They’ve done a lot of good work, but it isn’t there yet. Yet, another reason not to buy snapdragon PCs yet.

No, they made some bangers before going evil.
- Comment on Google's shocking developer decree struggles to justify the urgent threat to F-Droid 1 month ago:
Isn’t this illegal in Europe? Was that the whole point of forcing apple to allow alternative app stores?

I think we can agree the meme is terrible and misleading.

- Comment on proof of wormholes 1 month ago:
Hmm, i don’t like your tone, but you are correct. Also, ASD has a heritability greater than 80% which is higher than blood pressure and the same as human height. It’s a genetic disorder.
Also, when was it necessary to differentiate ASD from schizophrenia? The age of onset of schizophrenia is around 18-21 and autism is present practically from birth (apparent 1-3 years). I think OP is wrongly interpreting the Kraepelinian dichotomy which is about bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
- Comment on Supporting the future of the open web: Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy 1 month ago:
Why does CloudFlare not want an open web? I don’t know why they care. Can someone please explain?
- Comment on Cable placement a little weird, but the ergonomics are excellent. 1 month ago:
Me too. It was one of the few things in life that made a huge difference.
- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 1 month ago:
I hate to admit how much FOMO works on me. I’m glad I got a switch 2 to play BOTW again… Of course I have cemu, but I need to buy this other bullshit for some reason. Fuck Nintendo. What were we talking about again?
- Comment on Why is the human body so incredibly bad at responding to colds? 1 month ago:
I was about to say this too. It does a pretty fucking incredible job at fighting colds.
