I’m not making the claim that it is. Open Source Collective had an account shut down because they received a crypto donation from a sanctioned country. They decided to stop accepting crypto because of that incident. OP has made the claim that XMR has already solved all the problems they describe. I question that claim.

I don’t know. You’re the one making fantastic claims. The onus is on you to back them up.

How does XMR prevent transactions from sanctioned nations?

That is irrelevant. We are more concerned with relative market share than raw numbers. For example, many devs will not develop towards a browser or OS that has less than 5% market share. If/when Linux market share hits 5% and even 10%, we expect marked increases in developer interest to support our OS of choice. As far as I’m aware, nobody really sets such metrics based on raw user counts, so that is a less important number for us. Your Statistics 101 course should have taught you to make sure the statistics you are measuring are relevant.

You literally have an “x” button in the top-right of your web browser (or similar exit feature if you’ve disabled or moved that).

Where is data recovery $100? In my country, data recovery is like $1000 USD to look at your drive, and then they tell you how much they can recover and a full quote.

Ooh, that’s a fair claim! I don’t use Sidebery like that, so I have never run into that issue!

I’ve never trusted browsers to reliably remember history and restart where I left off, so I make heavy use of Sidebery’s snapshot feature.

If we’re talking about a great implementation of the feature, it would be ‘Sidebery’.

You trade a little system stability for bleeding-edge package access.

we might be terrorists, but we still take our shoes off when we walk in the house.

They’re rad, and you don’t notice the crease when the screen is displaying anything. I’ve had the zFold4 and now the 5 and I love it.

Ooh, I moved to hyprland a few months ago and fell in love, but sway will give me static layouts? My singular gripe with hyprland is I want to keep my RDP app fixed to a size and never resized for anything, because when that window resizes inadvertently, I have to MFA half a dozen connections. I mostly like the dynamic tiling, but I’d like to fix one window on one workspace and never have it resize.

Boomer is a state of mind, love, and this post is a shining example of boomerism.

Well, yes, it was something beautiful and amazing and we all loved it very dearly, or we wouldn’t be so passionate about what management has done to it and continues to do to it.

Yes, I torrent Linux ISOs for any version or distro I want to install, and then I seed them until I download an updated version of whichever distro (and occasionally I’ll clean up old ones if I stopped using that distro but the version I have is ancient).

But of course when we talk about torrenting in public forums, it’s funny to only mention all the Linux distros we are torrenting and remaining hush-hush about other things we may be sharing.

Honestly, I just self-host. I download my ebooks, use Calibre to clean them, convert them to my favorite format (ePub), and tag the shit out of them with metadata. My Calibre library lives in a folder that gets synced to all my devices (I’m currently using a commercial cloud storage platform from one of the big providers, but working on spinning up a Nextcloud instance). Then I just open my ebooks in Moon+ Reader Pro on my phone and read away.

Also to be fair to this idea, the quality of human moderators on Reddit is drastically worse than it was several years ago.

Is the open driver more stable in Wayland now? 535, I couldn’t use Wayland at all. 545, the open driver was still giving me all kinds of problems, but proprietary driver was flawless. Just upgraded and nothing broke, so I guess I’ll try flipping back to open again and giving it a try, but the point of the proprietary driver has been stability, at least for some of us.

oof :( sorry to see fellow lemmings falling victim to the AI movement.
