Also while Linux is not the same as UNIX, interacting with them is much more similar than, say, interacting with Windows.
If you use only GUI, the underlying system philosophy is practically irrelevant.
If you use CLI, you can literally use the same distribution within WSL as you use on a Linux computer. I like using openSUSE’s zypper in WSL more than I like brew on macOS.

- Comment on Firefox Finally Introducing Matroska / MKV Playback Support 4 weeks ago:
I think this is a bit more involved than extended file format support.
- Comment on Firefox Finally Introducing Matroska / MKV Playback Support 4 weeks ago:
Also not entirely sure what I would use it for since I’ve mostly seen it with rips of Blu-ray movies and shows, never smaller files. I thought its main advantage was holding multiple video, audio, and data streams.
WebM shows that Matroska is excellent for streaming. It’s the same container, WebM just mandates a set of codecs (just as MP4 as an offshoot of MOV can theoretically hold non-MPEG codecs but nobody supports this in the real world). With formal Matroska support, something like combining a HEVC video track with an Opus audio would be possible.
- Comment on Firefox Finally Introducing Matroska / MKV Playback Support 4 weeks ago:
WebM is just Mastroska with most features disabled that are not relevant to streaming and a mandated set of codecs, so basic Mastroska support would have been possible years ago, simply by accepting the Matroska MIME types.

If you train a local LLM and let that LLM write your thesis for you, it’s fine.

- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 1 month ago:
A new power brick is needed anyway. That’s why FW now has a much more powerful one as well.
The 395 obviously would throttle if heat or power become a problem.
If GPD can put the 395 in a handheld, Framework can put it in a 16" chassis.
- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 1 month ago:
What are you talking about? Of course there is newer hardware than a Radeon RX 7700. The 7900 specifically.
The CPU also has no Ryzen 395 option either which Framework source for their unmodular desktop PC.

Surely there will be a desktop case for the old mainboard, as with the case for the 13" mainboard. Then you can to a little yoink and have yourself a good desktop PC.

Well, the idea is that you can upgrade components without replacing everything, so the initial cost is higher but the long term cost is lower.
That said, they took their time. The 1st generation is old now. The Radeon dGPU is probably weaker or on a similar level than the new Ryzen iGPU. There is no Radeon dGPU upgrade path other than “just use the old one”. They have a better upgrade cadence with the 13 inch model.
- Comment on Writing with LLM is not a shame. 1 month ago:
At least copyright is dying because of AI and few people seem to care. You can ask any of the big AI bots to recite Harry Potter. You need to be a bit creative with the questions but entire copyrighted works are in the database. You can bet your ass Windows is being developed these days using Linux code. Not because the developers are copying and pasting the code but because Copilot has been trained on Linux code and absolutely nobody is seeking GPL enforcement.

- Comment on Writing with LLM is not a shame. 1 month ago:
If it’s not shameful, why not disclose it?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_of_originality
If you don’t disclose it, you can claim copyright even if you have no right to. LLM-generated code is either plagiarism (but lawmakers proved that they don’t care about enforcing copyright on training data which has funny implications) or public domain because machine generation is not creative human work.

- Comment on Microsoft Still Can't Say How Much the ROG Xbox Ally X Will Cost Due to "Macro-Economic" Conditions, Despite Announcing Release Date and Availability Details(Leaked prices $549.99/$899 for Ally/Ally ) 1 month ago:
That’s almost worse, Asus also makes a lot of garbage.
That’s not the point. The point is asking Microsoft about the price of a branded 3rd party product.

It was about Microsoft botching a launch
And Microsoft isn’t launching the product because it’s not a Microsoft product.

Well I hope Microsoft has next to no input on it then
Microsoft develops Windows game mode, so the user-facing bit of the system and of course such a major sponsor surely has general “don’t do anything that hurts our brand” clauses in the contract with Asus but other than that there has been not a single piece of evidence that the handheld will be anything but a more high-profile version of www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-3-mode-controller-xbox/ which is also just branded 3rd party hardware. IMO there is a decent chance the identical hardware will also launch as a SteamOS version with the buttons then carrying Steam branding.

That doesn’t make it any better
Whether or not it’s better wasn’t the question. The claim was that Microsoft was launching the product and being in charge of defining the price. They aren’t because it’s an Asus product with Xbox branding, just like www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-3-mode-controller-xbox/ is a regular 8bitdo controller with Xbox branding and not a Microsoft product.
That’s all.

It’s both. It was co-developed by the companies.
No, the actual hardware wasn’t. That’s the point of the entire exercise to not develop the product in-house. Microsoft only develops Windows game mode.

It’s not a Microsoft product. It’s an Asus product with a bit of Xbox sponsorship.
- Comment on I made a Firefox fork with Fediverse integration 1 month ago:
I don’t think the ideas of Lambalicious work with Lemmy. What would sending the domain name only achieve? I assume it uses the same logic as Lemmy uses to find crossposts? Obviously it needs the whole address then.
Maybe instead of crawling automatically, the users need to click a button to look up discussions? (I have yet to install your extension, so I have yet to experience the workflow myself, sorry.)
Maybe link to the privacy terms of the default instances? In general, I think your approach is good. You don’t collect any data, the feature is 100% opt-in. A central relay/proxy is even worse than your current approach. People are obviously free to set up their own Lemmy/Mastodon server if they want a relay.
