It’s a great addition. It’s a surprisingly powerful aspect of gnome that nobody, not even Gnome, ever seem to talk about.

They really should place a text file in that folder to explain how it works (and of course exempt it as being used as a template)

Ubuntu, Mint, and to some extent PopOS are pegged as easy Windows/MacOS alternatives, just like ElementaryOS. They’re still popular.

Damn. That does not look like a 76 year old woman. Good on her.

Both are pretty great on Fedora, although Fedora gives Gnome just a tiny bit more attention, and even specifically align Fedora’s release schedule with Gnome’s.

Gnome will likely be a bit more stable, consistent in UX, and have a workflow that’s very different but pretty amazing when it “clicks”. Gnome has a pretty great Adwaita app ecosystem that matches the system theme very well. Features can take a little while to come to Gnome, because the devs are pretty anal about getting things implemented perfectly before they’re added.

Plasma is more powerful and customisable, most parts of the system, and apps in the KDE app ecosystem, have a load of options you could spend hours going through and customising to your heart’s content. Plasma out of the box pretty much operates like you’d expect a Windows PC to work (sans the enshittification of course lol) . Plasma adds features rapidly, and just works out the kinks while in production, so-to-speak.

Both of them are great, albeit very different, which keeps the Linux desktop interesting and varied IMO. I’d try both for a day or two and then make your choice, because it’s highly subjective.

You can, but it always just feels a little janky and missing a couple of Gnome touches

That’s their point.

Fucks around with GPU drivers for some reason

“How can Linux do this to me??”

I tried to get everyone on Signal, and I personally donate £5 monthly to Signal, but everybody left. I’m forced to be 100% WhatsApp, because that’s what society uses.

I’m somewhat annoyed that the EU offered Signal the chance of becoming relevant on a silver platter, by forcing WhatsApp to open itself up and offer interoperability with other chat apps, while still maintaining proper E2EE using the Signal protocol, and Signal said nah.

E: oh, and I don’t manage to play much on my PC these days (my gaming time these days is more “oh, I have 20 minutes free, I’ll play on my steam deck while chilling on the couch for a bit!”), but on the once in a blue moon occasion I do, I’ll open up Discord, because good look trying to get people to use anything else.

I can download a decent size LLM such as Llama 3.1 in under 20 seconds then immediately start using it. No terminal, no complicated git commands, just pressing download in a slick-looking, user-friendly GUI.

They’re trivial to run yourself. And most are open source.

I don’t think this would be enforceable at all.

In what way? As in their future node having issues? Yeah.

As in them staying on their existing mode for ages? No. Their existing node is ridiculously expensive to produce, which is a big part of why Intel uses TSMC a lot now, and why nobody seems interested in Intel’s fabs.

This doesn’t appear to be comparing them, though? Just explaining what two acronyms are?

Yep.

Something tells me that Google won’t be turning down fast food companies that want to advertise with them, or reducing recommendations of channels that show off/review fast food a lot.

Maybe I’m being cynical, but this seems more like a “let’s get some good headlines” ploy than something that will seriously help anybody.

I don’t know what the best course is, but screwing over channels that promote exercise and healthy living doesn’t sound like a good option to me. Even if they can exacerbate some people’s perceived body issues.

No it isn’t.

In game NPC actions have been called “AI” for decades. Computers playing chess has been called AI for decades. Lots of stuff has been.

Nobody thought they were genuinely sentient or sapient.

The fact that people lumped LLMs, text-to-image generators, machine learning algorithms, image recognition algorithms, etc into a category and called it “AI” doesn’t mean they think it is self aware or intelligent in the way a human would be.

Soon it will be the mushrooms frying us in garlic butter

Ok then. Confirmed that you want babies to die, and that you love genocide of Uighurs. Sick bastard.

Bye bye.

That’s a massive if.

And I already explained above.

This is your last chance to address what I wrote in my earlier comment. I won’t talk any further until you do.

Ah yes. Being against companies fucking over their workers is racist. 🙄

What an absolute clown take.

Address my comment then I might consider answering subsequent questions from you.

Why do you hate those people?

The net number of jobs does not change.

That’s not necessarily true at all. Companies downsize virtually all the time when they move.

And it’s not even what I said anyway, you’re putting words in my mouth. I said leaving thousands jobless. Do you understand?

And just glossing over the genocide part, eh? I’ll ask you directly: is genocide bad, good, or neither?
