wow someone removed my wilma joke :(

why dont we just put uefi on phones

among us

wilma balls fit in yo mouth hey gottem

if you really want ott i believe it works through wine

what we really need on phones and by extension arm devices is a unified bootloader, something akin to a bios or uefi (which btw already exists on arm but manufacturers are choosing to not go with it for some reason)

it looks hella fun though lol, got to 15% in practice

yooo thats sick, i want to complete this as my first extreme but idk if ill be able to do it lol, my hardest is nine circles

homer? i hardly know 'er

do plugins that run on wine count?

They are extremely similar to the point that I think they are edging

try using pcem or other kinds of virtualisation

cant you just run the installer with wine which is like 2000% easier?

as far as im aware, roblox's new anti cheat is not kernel level but rather user level, besides it would scare me if it could run at kernel level considering that it never asks for admin permissions

that's just extra friction, with UIs you can explore and figure out at a glance roughly what a button will do

I disagree. It can be a useful learning point for both parties, especially if you have differing opinions and have good points for them.

i am of the opinion that applications on linux need some work, flatpak would be perfect for this however it doesn't have a good user friendly permissions system, it's a pain in the ass to install applications on non-system drives (which is a much bigger pain for native packages btw) and wine needs to be more user friendly in terms of prefix management, yes we have lutris and bottles but those feel like superglue to wine itself, im genuinely on the verge of learning C and doing all of this myself since that's most of what's holding me back from linux

literally just run the setup/game exe through lutris or bottles, then add the shortcut to steam

that is unless you're running disk encryption, in which case your data (and in most cases your OS) is safe from unauthorized access, although there is not much to stop them just wiping it or running their own os on it lol

ive only upgraded from my 2014 shit phone in 2021, and i plan to do the same with this one for as long as i can

asus has killed the possibility of me being a potential customer then lol

technically that is only true if the malware in question does something in the kernel or relies on an unimplemented wine api call, since a lot of malware is an infostealer or ransomware, its quite likely that it'll work just fine under wine

definitely hyper for me

they do have a research point rework planned on the roadmap, im not sure how good it'll be but so far the SL changes they've done were positive, although they could have done more

at least you have someone cool and close to you in your life

i mean i would get it if the platform wasn't trying to take advantage of you, but considering youtube's moves in the past few years and especially recently with some people getting adblock-blocked, yea i don't think supporting them further is a good idea

i was surprised that this was even attempted, but i guess someone would eventually try to

not yet, if you want to push yourself a little bit you could create your own community for it

i happen to still mostly use windows media player on windows 10 LTSC, in my opinion it looks better and runs much better than whatever regular windows has nowadays

of course VLC exists too and is mostly superior, but it doesnt have the cool visualisations for music :(

i believe fedora has this by default

Moistly ui issues that Vivaldi.

?

also file pickers that show thumbnails on linux from what i've seen are extremely commonplace

yea i agree, growth would be a better word to use here

it's a shame most people just don't care, this has been slowly consuming and devouring every single service online and recently offline for the past decade

it's a for profit, proprietary application that doesn't value your privacy in the slightest, it's becoming a monopoly over communities and taking over places like forums and instant messaging and is not immune to enshittification

i'd give it one or two years before discord undergoes some serious enshittification, with the way most other social media websites have gone down, presumably due to them not being really profitable anymore, im sure discord will start pushing people into nitro more and more as time goes on, i mean as most other platforms discord is already taking advantage of our data, but so did twitter and look where twitter is going now lol

And, I guess, in general I am increasingly worried about people with bad opsec. A lot of the “fediverse” discussions are reminding me of the crypto crowd thinking it provides a high degree of security and anonymity because a corporation is not involved. And they really don’t realize just how much power and access instance owners/admins have.

people should always think that everything they post on the internet can be searchable and viewable by anyone, it is public information

i still have no clue why people use chrome for the past 5+ years, there's better chromium alternatives if you still want to use chromium for some reason, and there's firefox which doesn't support the chromium monopoly, works really well and doesn't try to restrict you from using adblockers

keep it up guys, we've got this lmao
