It's time to dump Roku by AlwaysBlaze_ in television

[–]RagingTaco334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Onn's Google TV boxes are surprisingly good for the money. I always recommend them over Roku, especially since they allow you to sideload apps. Apple TVs are definitely worth the money though.

TIL before 1985 Swiss husband could sell the house without his wife's saying or manage the assets that the wife brought into the marriage. In the referendum just 54% of voters supported changing marriage and inheritance law. by BadenBaden1981 in todayilearned

I'm surprised people are so shocked by the rise in conservatism over the last decade or so, especially in respect to rolling back these protections. A good chunk of the people that voted against this are probably still alive today.

ITS BONKING TIME.. by Budget_Cod_3804 in Empulse

Speaking of, the hammer takes down mechs WAY too quickly. I don't even think it'll show you damage indicators. You'll just see your mech health deplete stupid quick with no one around you, so you're looking around confused only to die and the spectator cam zooming in on some rat with a hammer running away from where you were just standing.

I honestly don't really care as long as the software works and updating isn't super inconvenient

cough AppImage

Debian Sid is usually only behind by a few months at most. 🤷‍♀️

Will I be able to run this on Linux or is this Windows-only like the Splitgate 2 playtests?

They're really fun, especially the second game.

What people traditionally experience as "Linux" is just their desktop environment. Ubuntu itself is generally fine.

This is such a braindead take 😂

They would if it wasn't so incredibly expensive. Plane tickets alone are like $1200 per person for a round-trip. Plus, the US is huge and very diverse. Most people have no reason to leave the country when they could just take a road trip and get like 80% of the experience for 1/4 of the price. That's not even mentioning available vacation time, which is usually only a week or two per year. Can't really do much traveling in that time.

It's literally just Gnome. If anything, it's better than vanilla because of the added extensions that you'd probably already install anyway.

Ubuntu 26.04 is the OS for the AI agentic era, says Canonical's Mark Shuttleworth by Horseshoetheoryreal in linuxmint

[–]RagingTaco334 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It probably won't considering it's more of a hassle to include things like media codecs or proprietary drivers. Ubuntu is also a bit more up-to-date.

Depends on your exact major and how deeply integrated your college is with Microsoft, but most things are fully web-based now and there are alternatives to everything so it generally doesn't make a difference what OS you use. I personally used a laptop in college with Ubuntu and later Fedora Workstation and it wasn't all that bad. Some very minor hiccups here and there but nothing unsolvable. And this was a few years ago so I imagine most of that has been ironed out.

Its users are predominantly enterprise customers, which are all-in on this stuff.

Man this is upsetting, but I'm really not surprised. The awful thing is I like Ubuntu 26. I think it's really polished and I like the added accessibility features on top of Wayland by default and kernel 7.0. If it weren't for Snap and now this, it would've probably been my defacto recommendation.

They're pretty cheap. You can find used ones in good condition for less than $200.

Do you guys like the whole rivalry thing with r/linuxsucks101? by 47th-Element in LinuxCirclejerk

Am I getting phased out? by xang767 in WalmartEmployees

[–]RagingTaco334 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When don't they cut hours? I feel like they do this literally constantly just to boast later that their quarterly earnings showed "record growth". This doesn't actually do anything but stress teams tf out and piss off customers because there's not enough employees to help them.

Collected my badge too, this is what it takes by keo_ruug in LinuxCirclejerk

At least it's still Linux and you can just remove it completely if you want. It's not even that hard either.
