Hello, tone-policing genocide-defender and/or carnist 👋

Instead of being mad about words, maybe you should think about why the words bother you more than the injustice they describe.

Have a day!

  • Yes, you can. It's just an ARM64 computer. The only special consideration is that the kernel uses 16K pages instead of 4K pages, but that's not something I've encountered problems with.

  • Pretty much all COSMIC desktop apps have translation support built in (because most of them are built from templates that support them). I'm sure many of them could use your help.

  • 120Hz display works!!!! Woohoo!!!!

    There are now 0 hardware features that I miss with Asahi Linux 🥳

  • Big brain analysis right here. Libs really just want to keep repeating the past instead of actually fixing the problem.

  • return

  • lmao

  • Three-finger drag is such a nice feature that I miss from macOS, but apparently nobody knows what it's used for (according to the Phoronix comments)?

    Three-finger drag allows you to drag anything that you would otherwise have to double-tap and hold to drag with your trackpad. It is not a gesture.

    This libinput update allows you to have three-finger drag and three-finger swipe gestures, which is something the macOS implementation cannot do.

  • Binary logging is some of the most asinine shit I've ever had to deal with on Linux (and yes, I know you can change it, but it being the default behavior is beyond absurd).

  • "Agentic" LLMs are turning garbage operating systems, like Microslop Winblows, into hostile and untrusted environments where applications need to run. A primary example given is how Recall constantly captures your screen and turns the image data into text that can be processed by Microslop, thus making the fact that Signal is end-to-end encrypted largely irrelevant, since your OS is literally shoulder-surfing you at all times. This is made worse by the fact that the only workaround that application developers can use to defend against this surveillance is to implement OS DRM APIs, which are also controlled by the hostile entity.

  • NOVIDEO

  • There is ad-blocking, but not with uBlock Origin.

  • No. Even on standard Android, you must enter the password/PIN on first unlock because that is required to load the decryption keys that make biometric authentication worm.

  • On #3: every modern phone running encryption has a BFU (before-first-unlock) state where the data on the device is more secure than after its first unlock because you haven't entered your password/PIN to decrypt the data. GrapheneOS also has this, but it is not unique to GOS.

  • Yes. I use SteamOS and Bazzite (I have multiple TVs with different computers for this) with Steam Big Picture mode as my sole streaming interface. Here are some decent Linux apps for various streaming services:

    Just add those as "non-steam games" and you're mostly good to go. For some apps, like Jellyfin, you need to enable keyboard navigation (a.k.a. "gamepad controls").

    Get yourself one of these if you'd like a mostly seamless remote control experience (depending on how well each streaming app/wrapper works with keyboard/gamepad navigation). Easily the best $25 I ever spent.

  • Mic support for M2s just leaves one thing that I miss on Asahi: running the display at 120Hz.

    The Asahi team is doing an amazing job turning Apple hardware into my favorite Linux device!

  • "Contributor" with the second greatest number of commits is Claude 🤡

    DOA.

  • Don't.
