The joke in the meme is John Cena laughing at JKR being in the Epstein files, though. That’s not a joke, it’s disinformation.
But JKR is objectively “in the Epstein files.” It’s not clear whether she was directly or intentionally involved, but her name is absolutely present in the files. This meme isn’t misinformation at all.
Honestly I’d consider using this in combination with NixOS just for the flatpak support
Fair enough. For me it gets most of the popup and in-page ads that would display on top of articles. I don’t think it gets past paywalls but honestly I try not to read from paywalled sites anyway. Improving it to be more advanced would be nice though since I think right now it’s just a simple toggle in settings.
Xlibre is backed for the most part by the singular maintainer that was still willing to work on X11 who got kicked out for being too toxic and breaking existing code. For what it’s worth, it also explicitly used MAGA language in its README for a while.
Phoenix is intended to allow for support of legacy software/DEs and provide a more modern/maintainable version of X11. It isn’t trying to compete with Wayland, it’s trying to live alongside it for environments that won’t or can’t move to Wayland. It also technically won’t be a complete X11 implementation, as it’s ignoring older portions of the protocol.
Neither option addresses the elephant in the room: The X11 protocol is still fundamentally broken in a lot of aspects. Multi-monitor support, especially when monitors aren’t the same resolution, refresh rate, or physical size, is broken at a fundamental level. It will never work even as well as Windows, which is already an incredibly low bar to clear.
Wayland is slow moving, sure, but it is a much more stable base to work with than Xorg ever was. From a security, modularity, and extensibility standpoint, Wayland is a lot better. There is a reason most of the Xorg team developed a completely new protocol instead of just reimplementing X11 themselves.
Vanadium already has an ad blocker though?
It can be hit or miss, really depends on the bank. I’m in the US and mine worked fine after I enabled a compatibility setting in the app list, but that’s kind of anecdotal. I think there is a community compatibility list somewhere of banking apps that work/don’t work on GrapheneOS.
If you were able to install Bazzite then installing graphene shouldn’t be any harder than that. It has a web-based installer that was pretty easy to use as long as you follow the instructions.
The pixel 8 will be supported through the end of 2030 (graphene support follows the same timeline as Google because of firmware-level updates that are still needed from them) so you could still get a lot of use out of it.
Not just designed, lawnchair is a fork of the AOSP launcher which is why they look so similar. It’s also partially why they have a comparatively slow development cycle, because they spend a lot of effort rebasing whenever AOSP’s launcher has significant changes.
Lawnchair doesn’t have a paid version, it’s open source
Does it count when it’s intentional? I feel like the PhoenixSC subreddit is just like that
It’s a kernel compile parameter but most Linux distros have it turned off by default 😔
The only time I’ve ever seen it turned on was on my raspberry pi
They can also use live location data in an emergency situation,also using a court ordered subpoena.
What qualifies as an “emergency situation”? I imagine that definition could be stretched pretty thinly
If you want to be technical about it, there could (and probably are given OnePlus’s security history) still be unpatched firmware bugs that will never get patched because OnePlus and Qualcomm have stopped supporting their CPUs which are that old.
Not saying anyone should turn their working phones into e-waste, only that you probably shouldn’t treat it like it’s perfectly secure either just because it’s flashed with the newest Android. Be careful with any super sensitive logins like bank accounts and government sites.
I’m in the northeast and most (if not all? I don’t feel like checking every single state along the northeast coast) of them have laws saying that tap water must be free if it’s offered. The only gotcha there is that restaurants don’t technically have to offer tap water, but that exclusion is probably only there because of water contamination issues. That being said, I’ve also never seen a restaurant not offer tap water even in places where I definitely wouldn’t want to drink it. It’s like this in all of the tristate area. The bigger cities like NYC additionally usually have stricter laws closer to what California has.
It’s like restaurants in the US giving away free tap water when you sit down to eat.
This is a bad example because in many states they’re required to offer free tap water by law.
I used hyprland on my laptop for about a year and the thing that bothered me the most (aside from the toxic community) was how often I had to rewrite chunks of it after every major update. I’m definitely glad that the niri devs are treating its config stability more seriously.
I don’t love the way niri handles workspaces across multiple monitors so far but my problems with it are also minor enough that I’m pretty sure I can fix it myself with a script or IPC program if it really starts to bother me
I hate to break it to you but Mario Odyssey is 8 years old and RDR2 is 7 years old. Those definitely don’t qualify as “now” games on a timeline. Elden Ring gets a pass because of the DLC but it’s also 4 years old.
That being said, there are plenty of good games that came out this year. Most of them aren’t AAA though.
Worth noting that Linux Mint Debian Edition exists and is based directly on Debian instead of Ubuntu. They starting publishing it specifically because the Linux Mint team doesn’t like the direction Ubuntu is heading in with snaps. Not sure how good it is as I haven’t tried it in a while (and don’t really use regular mint either).
