I did not want to imply it was written by children at all, just to say it was written primarily for children. Thought provoking stuff can be had in anything, sorry if you misunderstood the post.
In "bad", I meant the things that got the community to be seen in a bad way by outsiders, I was generalizing when I wrote NSFW. I probably shouldn't but I didn't know what else to put. Either way, regardless of how this post is perceived, I am still amazed by the capabilities of this community
Try to look for a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications/
If it is not there, try making one in ~/.local/share/applications/
If there is no .desktop file, try looking for the binary with $ which lutris
If you find the binary, but can't find the .desktop file, take another .desktop file as an example from /usr/share/applications/
and create a new one in ~/.local/share/applications/
with appropriate Exec=
from the $ which
command from earlier
Given how federation works (and my limited understanding of it) I believe not much will change, since they simply can't Extinguish. It's all federated into different instances under different moderation teams. They hold no 'ultimate control' over anything beyond their own instances
I'm guessing everyone who likes GNOME (me included) only uses it because of its unique workflow. And that's exactly why people were hesitant by GNOME 3 (besides the UI. I'm not a linux user from that time but damn the UI was weird seeing some old screenshots)
Weirdly enough, I've never been happier with Linux since I discovered Wayland with Fedora. I'm one year on my Linux journey at this point, my desktop never felt so polished. It actually feels like a competitor to Windows and MacOS now (at least for me) and yes, I use NVIDIA under Wayland
If you see a specific comment, he responds that he set everything that he could off. What I think this means is he set it off the first time the laptop turned on, since (I'm guessing) the same screen as above appeared when he turned the laptop on for the first time
The PC Security Channel made a video comparing Windows 11 and XP with Wireshark. The telemetry settings in Windows 11 are set to minimal, you can see his response to a specific comment about it. Here's the link: https://youtu.be/IT4vDfA_4NI
Oh, we're enjoying it alright! Ever since Apple announced that they would kill off a service that we were using (basically to sync files between different computers and TVs) and replace it with iCloud (for which we would have to pay a lot). It was a pain trying to set it up but eventually I got it working. Very impressed at how well it does its thing.
I'd say it all depends on the user's threat model. Seeing that part of the younger generation (myself included) are getting more caught up in technology and getting more interested in technology, in time there will be so many people using ad blockers (in fact, there already are a lot of people using ad blockers) that services like google will have to resort to other means of profit. While they try to find a solution, they will try to mitigate the thing that is preventing them from making enough profit in the meantime. In this case, adblocks. Privacy-respecting products are a thing, and some of them being used and trusted by huge corporations (an example would be Nextcloud, which is free to use).
To reclaim privacy is a very hard thing to do, but it was always meant to be this way, whether people like it or not, what drives the world is money, and user data is very profitable in today's day and age
Luckily, there are things people can do to reclaim their privacy. It is indeed impossible to reclaim 100% of it, but people have the choice to steer away from massive surveillance that happens everywhere. Privacy is a human right that got taken away, but it can be reclaimed. People can be in control
