And here they were saying the private subreddits were causing usability issues...

The admins, not to be out done, have now just broken search links and user experience for the whole rest of the site. Not just for the private subreddits.

I can take my browsing somewhere else, but the biggest casualty of reddit's implosion for me will be the years of help posts in hardware and Linux focused subs.

I just don't think KDE will be worth it on plasma until KDE 6 / Qt 6. Basic components like SDDM supporting Wayland still have to be solved before KDR provides a first class experience. Try messing around with environments like sway, Hyprland, and Gnome the stability difference is night and day compared to KDE.

Wayland has a mouse capture bug in proton / wine. It particularly seems to be an issue in FPS games. That may contributing to slower adoption for Linux gamers.

At minimum someone has in a traffic fatality.

Can you try using a tool like Crystal disk to check your drive health. Once when I had similar symptoms my drive was just weeks from failing completely.

Still sane, Exile?

They didn't say anything about implementation. Why couldn't you build tooling to keep it decentralized? Servers or even communities could choose to ban from their own communities based on a heuristic based on the moderation actions published by other communities. At the end of the day it is still individual communities making their own decisions.

I just wouldn't be so quick to shoot this down.

Seriously Linus memes must have 20k of the remaining 35k users.

I couldn't live without one these days. I personally use Bitwarden. I have tried most of the other manager suggested in this thread. They each their own benefits. I would recommend one of the hosted services for most people (1password, Bitwarden, not LastPass). I came to prefer Bitwarden for their combination of features and openness. I have self hosted it in the past, but these days just use their hosted service.

There are a lot of side benefits to using one besides just remembering your usernames and passwords for you too.

• It lets you use catch-all emails if you have your own email domain
  • allows you to give services their own address to track abuse
  • makes you more resistant to someone taking your leaked credentials from one site and using it for another
  • easier spam filtering
• Most password managers support random password generation
• Saving things that aren't logins
  • Family member's SSNs and DL numbers
  • Credit cards
  • Wifi passwords
  • Gate codes
• Sharing always up to date passwords and other secrets with people (for hosted options)
• 2FA is easier

The gist seems to be they want to abuse the UBI images or low cost cloud instances to rip out the RPM sources. Those statements would make me really nervous if I had a business using Rocky. Strange for an enterprise Linux focused server distribution. I think Alma's approach shows a lot more maturity and foresight as a project.

I do not think this is a place for consumer action. It is good the devs are running their awareness campaign for gamers. If a dev releases a game made in Unity in 2025 it is because they have made the decision that it is the best course of action for their business. Maybe they have a B2P or subscription model that makes the runtime cost more sustainable over throwing out N years for development effort.

At the end of the day Unity is a business to business product. The developers are the customer, not the players. If Unity's new pricing and business practices don't make sense to developers then developers will no longer use it and Unity will fail without player intervention.

I don't think your goal is to further hurt the devs. Boycotting games made with Unity is throwing the baby out with the bath water.

That's the thing though. I think this attitude is incredibly pervasive in tech more broadly. No one hires juniors. They don't want to train and invest in inexperienced employees. Instead firms will hire seniors, milk them for every hour they are willing to dedicate.

Those that care give it their all and burn out after only a couple years. Especially when they see their extra efforts go unrewarded. The burnt husk of a human that comes out the other end will usually quit for greener pastures and the chance to start fresh where they are hopefully recognized. They are now someone else's problem.

Then you end up with the poor souls that have experienced this cycle 2-3 times, don't give a shit and just coast by giving the firm the minimum effort to avoid a bad performance review.

Unfortunately I think the current tech culture is very hostile to anyone who is young or cared.

We already found out just how secure rights backed only supreme court precedent are against the current court. If that taught us anything it is that any right not explicitly spelled out as an amendment can be revoked at any time. Don't jinx it.

It's the best of both worlds. Young, tight knit community with a mature UX.

The distribution of DRM encryption keys is very storied.

KDE Plasma 6 made it to Arch about a week before Tumbleweed. Tumbleweed is also still using Xorg by default for Plasma 6. That said both had it in their repos withing 2 weeks of release. Is there some history here for Gnome on Arch?

Zoom works just fine on voyager.

Can you expand on what you like over docker compose?

Given the work by the guys behind podcasting 2.0 it would be interesting to see the fediverae adopt boosts backed by sats / the lightning network. It seems like they solve a lot of the same problems. You need a common currency people can freely transfer in small amounts to support content they like and the infra they are hosted on.

Here is an article by one of my favorite podcasts that have gone all in on boosts.
