  • As others have mentionned downloading the .deb and running it will also work, but I feel nobody gave your a tldr of why you may want to follow those instructions instead, so here it is:

    Those instructions configure your package manager (apt) with a new repository for this application.

    The upside to that is that anytime you will look for updates, this app will also get updated.


    It’s a bit more work up front, but it can pay off when you have dozens of app updating as part of normal system operations.

    Imagine a world where windows updates would also update all your software, that’s what this is.



  • While I agree that it wasn’t the time nor the place, that video had nothing to do with the sexual harrassment/assault allegations.

    This was in response to GN video and subsequent Linus response on their forum.

    The other stuff came after.

    Still weird, but not on the same scale in my opinion.

    Edit: I just saw timestamps lower in another comment chain showing that the apology video actually came after the twitter post.

    While it was most likely filmed and edited before said post, launching as is is pretty bad indeed.


  • I was raised by my grandparents.

    My grandfather was the cook most of the time, and he was always trying new recipies he found online: in years, I don’t think I ever saw him cook the same meal twice.

    Everytime he’d taste something new, he’d enthusiastically comment “it’s different than usual!” (Rough translation from French “ça fait changment!”)

    To this day, I have no idea how good or how bad he thought any of those dishes were.
