  • Bazzite was the breakthrough for me. All my stuff just worked. Only 2 things I had to fix was

    1.adding 5.1 audio over Spdif, which was a single ostree command to make it permanent.

    1. Installing Proton-GE for one of my games that does not do well under normal proton.

    Took about an hour to research and fix both.

    I had tried to covert 4 times in the 5 years before. Ubuntu, linux mint and endevourOS would not play well with my hardware in years past.

  • He is a time poor impatient person. That is something linux will need to address for wider adoption.

    I would argue that their example resulted in some very wide ranging changes in approach that was long overdue.

    Linux was at risk of becoming an "OS for us" instead of a true replacement for everyone.

    I suspect if they repeat the challange today, it would be a night and day difference.

  • What do you want to be when you grow up? USA vs UK vs China

  • I agree with you, its no longer math at thst point, but the application in the service of other fields.

    What I am advocating for is that math at most of secondary school level should be taught on the practical basis. Math theory should be treated as a field of specialization. Much like how language is taught after people get over the basic literacy portion.

  • Math is mostly taught as theory. It should be taught in practice.

    Teaching people how to calculate an inventory, or taxes in a spreadsheet, is much more useful than teaching them differentials and number theory.

    Its like teaching people carpentry but never having them make anything with it. You just quiz them on which tool and material they need to use.

  • Ironic, since Japan is one of the last holdouts requiring the use of floppy drive for use in government processes.

  • Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

    Jump

  • There are some benefits, but its situational and only affects you while your hardware is very new. Eventually the base kernel catches up in most cases.

  • Its like buying a pre-built PC vs a custom PC.

    They do the same things at the end of the day, but the the custom PC converts the extra time investment into a result that gives better performance and is more suited to your needs.

  • Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions!

  • Easing is not removing.

    Anything more than a warning and disclaimer popup is too much.

  • They are called Canadians. The scale works like that for them.

  • As long as the button says buy, then its ownership and should be treated like physical goods.

  • On new installations, Android rebinds the power button to open up Google Assistant

  • Thanks.

    On xiaomi, search for "gesture shortcut" in the settings menu to get to the right option menu.

  • It is also worth noting that you can find contra arguments for nearly every complex event happening and that history is written by the victors. I am sure the Incas and Mayans also "freely" converted to Christianity under the Spanish. The fact is that religion is a very difficult thing to eradicate to this degree without significant violence and discrimination.

    Regarding the Nubians. They survived invasion from the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, but under Islam, their culture was largely eradicated as a non-islamic group: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nubians#%3A%7E%3Atext=The+fall+of+the+kingdom+of+Christian+Nubia+occurred+in+the+early+1500s+resulting+in+full+Islamization+and+reunification+with+Egypt+under+the+Ottoman+Empire%2C+the+Muhammad+Ali+dynasty%2C+and+British+colonial+rule.+After+the+1956+independence+of+Sudan+from+Egypt%2C+Nubia+and+the+Nubian+people+became+divided+between+Southern+Egypt+and+Northern+Sudan.

    I think my main point is that Empires are usually built violence and subjugation. but when it comes to Christian and Islamic empires, they also include cultural and religions subjugation, which has destroyed many distinct and irreplaceable cultures that have existed for thousands of years prior.

  • 'Netanyahu said: “The rape of Palestinian detainees by Israeli soldiers in Sde Teiman caused enormous damage to Israel’s image and to our army. This may be the most serious propaganda blow Israel has

    Jump

  • Don't misunderstand, I don't disagree. Israel is a propped up puppet of the US. (a puppet pulling back on the strings of the puppeteer)

    I was simply stating that many people in the west have stopped caring. Religions nationalism does that. Its the basis for the racist imperialism the leadership of Israel and the US are propagating. To get people to tolerate genocide and violence, religion is an excellent tool. Fear of the "other" and denial of your own weakness are powerful motivators.

  • Completely peacful expansion right? Islam is a religion of peace right? No way they conquered, exploited and genocided like other empires right?

    Say, seen any Zoroastrian or Nubians lately?
