only among tech people. Way to prove my point. The general population only cared about easy access to free movies, they did not, and still do not care about the underlying implementation that makes that possible. My dad downloads stuff occasionally, I assure you, he does not know what bittorrent does
if you rip out an engene from a car, then you can operate it at its most efficient rpm all the time, instead of when you happen to cross the right rpm on the right gear. So an engine powering a generator can almost always be more efficient than in a car.
This is not taking the losses in the electrical system when using the generated power in a moter to make the car move. But in a lot of cases, you still come out ahead
you seem to be confusing an operating system for the user interface. An os can (and regularly does) have more than one interface. In this case steamos ships with two of them. One they designed which is targeted for games. And they also ship plasma as a desktop environment for those who need it. The operating system lies under all that, and you can launch any piece of software from either of the interfaces. (or the terminal, that counts as a 3rd way to interact with the computer, I guess)
as amazing as snake was as a toy on phones, it still doesn't make sense to put a copy of snake in outlook. Or notepad, or paint, or office, or as an always available widget in the task bar
because they haven't? We don't want any changes to our ability to install software. This would still kill f-droid, and the "flow" they talked about isn't a system wide setting. You have to do it per app. And you, the owner of the divice who just wants to install something on your device, would have to register. So if too many people install the app, the dev would be forced to register as well.
everyone's adopting it because they're forced to. And shut up with your "but you can use X", some distros literally plan to drop support for it entirely.
everything is fucking videos now. You get stuch at a very particular place? Prepare to sift through literally hours of video instead of, for example, just searching for the name of the place you're in ingame
that's the thing.... wayland has repeatedly said they will not reach feature parity. So from the word "until" onwards cad be deleted, back to the older comment
