Install MX Linux (not the AHS version) it is Debian based and pretty nice

DOGE will abolish the FBI, good luck 🤞🏻

PWA in Linux is unusable yep, with FF or Edge, super buggy.

I’m using Teams in Windows, I have a software KVM to move between my Linux PC and work windows laptop

Well, I’m a unix guy for 30 years and hated M$ bill gates blablabla and forced to use windows at work etc. Teams was somewhat bad at the beginning, especially start of covid pandemic , I’m using Teams multiple times daily for ~5 years now. But since ~1 year it handles video call pretty nicely, 20+ feeds, share screens, whiteboard, etc. it’s pretty stable at least, don’t crash anymore, and we can have multiple accounts. It took times to reach this state I agree…

I thought they had it, like a lot of phones, Samsung has a limiting to 80% or even disabling fast charging

US arms manufacturers will have billions and billions flowing from Israel (read: USA tax payer)

Trump’s “concept of a plan” to end Ukraine war is easy, the day he is in office, he turns off the tap for money/weapons

autoconf and stuff like this? Not anymore. Since ~5 years here it’s cmake everywhere, Conan, ninja.

yeah but for instance, Putin (having more than 200 billions $$$) and all his oligarchs friends, don’t give a shit, they can live in super mansion with 23 bathrooms, high ends cars and all the refine food/wine from around the world

I have tested multiple distro, in the beginning was mostly hack of multiple things and almost LFS, downloading floppies images from usenet… I then started to use Debian early 00, then used Ubuntu for years, but I don’t like snap/flatpak and lots of changes Ubuntu made so I switched to Mint Cinnamon, but hated it, often broken, glitches, etc, so I switched to MX because it is Debian based, always up to date (like latest FF and latest Xserver with last night CVE fix etc and always native .deb, no snap/flat). I also always loved minimal DE so Xfce is perfect and light. Also I mainly develop in Linux, no games.

I’m old, I come from old X11R4 time, motif, mwm, twm, fvwm, things from previous century. In modern Linux I used mostly gnome, and Cinnamon for a few years and tried to love it but cannot, I finally went back to Xfce because it works, it’s simple, neat, nice, I have no icon on my desktop, I have a kind of windows 3 setup: a startup menu (and some quick launches), the window bar, the notification area with time etc

I’m using MX Linux for maybe 8 years now with Xfce

updated screenshot:

the development/testing is done on Windows under VMs rather than a sample of real world hardware

I highly doubt it, seriously, I don’t think they test update some VMs and say “that’s good”, there’s thousands and thousands people working at MS, I don’t know how many on win11 but certainly a few hundreds, I doubt none of them install the upgrade on real hardware to test.

I know it’s not a hardware compatibility problem. People just don’t want ads/tracking/AI bullshit, a removed control panel, settings that are hard to find/hidden, etc.

All intel processor 8th gen+ (and even some 7th gen IIRC) are win11 compatible, motherboard have TPM2 for years, even my intel 6th gen MB have TPM2.0.

Next year the intel 8th gen will have 8 years, people have PC/laptop more recent than that. Problem is that win10 will not get security updates and all.

I’m using MX Linux BTW.

Same. Got burned with a Roku, then a tv with Yahoo! TV.

Now I have a Hisense with google TV, it’s not bad, no ads, apps like Netflix and Disney+ are in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

My mic is off too 😉

You may be interested with input-leap now that they released binaries/packages for various distro

https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/releases/tag/v3.0.2

I installed it as a linux server and windows client, it works well, my old barrier config is 100% compatible

About happening for years in Japan IIRC, but in a good way, especially with physically handicape people, they control robots to take order and serve dishes etc in restaurant. It allows people to work, be busy, earn money, etc.

Now Canada do the same!!

yes because at the time they didn’t know what to do, and gave .su to the .ru guys. For .yu it was also a little bit messy with multiple new countries wanting to control it. This is when IANA made laws to properly handle end of ccTLD like this, .yu does not exist anymore, it will be the same for .io

https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/yu.html

Yes, there is laws, IANA says that ideally in 3-5 years all the .io will be gone, like the .yu ones, they do not exist anymore.

In a way, I understand, .yu was removed years ago for instance. Here it is because .io is pretty special for geek and all
