“Microsoft ❤️ Linux”

Not terribly fond of their icon as well. Personally, I would be willing to look past the name if they had a better icon.

Surprisingly, I mispronounce it exactly like that.

not really. honestly never been much active social media. I will say this though. I was on reddit for a little while and that was bad. Never again will I go back.

I tried to install F41 from a Bootable drive today but failed. The error message was totally different but it was an efi issue.

I had maybe a similar issue today, from fedora 41 workstation (gnome).

yeah. I have had anxiety issues long before I had access to internet.

what Mozilla is really afraid of is losing the over inflated bonus the execs get paid.

It really isn’t, at least in my experience

works in my machine is an opinion not an argument. Different people have different expectations and experiences.

That vtuber couple are entertaining.

I have a Dell. Linux support is pretty amazing. But I wouldn’t recommend using blender unless it’s a Dell XPS.

oh my, I didn’t see that coming. That was such a shock.

Exactly. It honestly feels like she thinks paradigm shift is the only indicator of progress in science.

Remembering the good old days when that used to be IE’s job.

It looks like some undergraduate’s attempt at Grand Unified Theory. Also, what is Gellman matrix?

IMO The Fedi Origami looks waaay better than the 3 cat but holes

I had the same thought

The stabbing was literally live streamed and they were trying to block a very graphic footage to be viral on Twitter. I would have blocked the instance if any fediverse instance didn’t remove such a video from their platform.

X’s Global Government Affairs team described the outcome as a win for “freedom of speech”.

So I guess every upper level employee at deadbird site is just another Musk asskisser with the same demented view of free speech?

wanted to bring matters up anyway in case it still would be considered useful.

Honestly, I think the issue is still relevant because many users coming to fedi, don’t get exposed to this kind of discussion. I wasn’t. I was bored with mastodon so looked around and found firefish. But my instance was shutting down. So I decided to just use the source of all the *key software, misskey and went to sign up for misskey.io but couldn’t. I had to search a lot to finally figure out the situation. Later, I joined a smaller instance, instead of the flagship instance. My server admin is amazing. They run an instance that also follows US specific laws as well despite being primarily Japanese server because there are a few english users.

What I learned all of these is that, mastodon is not fedi, there are a lot of software, look around before you settle down. And instances with small number of users form a better community. So, you don’t have to choose the largest instance out there.

• I am not using misskey because I like loli stuff. I should’ve worded it better. I love my instance because our admin runs a great server.

Start with Gentoo or Arch

I wouldn’t recommend arch to general users. I consider myself a general linux user, and figuring out Arch, even after the installation hurdle, wasn’t easy for me.

is like fixing windows when it doesn’t

I don’t think Arch really makes that easy. Although, I guess archwiki is pretty great. Even arch forum helped me a lot with respect to other disto.
