Never met that vegan everyone is talking about, but I did meet some of those linux users. More than that Mac OS users, though

Yes, unless you do it too late and then it brakes :)

(Haven’t used Arch in ~10 years, but that was my experience back then. I use Debian, btw)

GNU/Arch, sir or siresse

Hello from Japan! :)

I was all for it and even bought a USB dongle to make it super easy. Turns out this shit doesn’t work anywhere. Fuck 2FA if nobody implements decent mechanisms.

Actually, it’s GNU/unkempt, bearded man

hmm… breathing in some of the good pesticides…

wait till you meet Line 😶

Bro, but what about the credit card receipt for porno VR games, signed by Siegfried? What about the warranty card for the porno VR games, filled out by Siegfried? What about the book “Porno VR Games and Me (This Sort of Thing is my Bag, Baby!)” by Siegfried?

1. it’s easy to make fun of
2. it makes every other programming language look better in comparison

The whole Musk takeover is much less relevant (in the sense of interesting) for people outside the western context. I asked a few friends in Japan why they still use Twitter, but they just don’t care about the platform and ownership as long as they can still interact with their friends there. Curious how the botification will affect that over time, though.

*GNU/Linux

Tbh, two monitors don’t help me at all. I set up a cool home office during covid with all upgrades I could think of. Hardly ever used the second monitor. I even had difficulties filling my laptop screen with meaningful additional content. Also, neck pain of constantly working with a turned head is real.

The most important upgrade IMHO is a good chair, followed by a USB-C docking station and maybe a robotic arm for the display to adjust height and free some space on the desk

Thanks, as I said, I tried all the f-buttons already, multiple times, with no success. F10 seems to be the one, but it didn’t work on multiple tries. I’m heading to the office later today where I have different keyboards and displays to try it with.

Another thing I just found on a reddit post was that the USB stick should be no larger than 4GB. Even if that didn’t cause this problem, I’ll get a small USB stick on the way as well, just in case.

So, the solution is to disable the adblocker? Not gonna happen

Yes, but that’s exactly my point. The need for hardware support shrinks if the hardware doesn’t change every few months. A chip from a few years ago is still very fine. That was not the case in 2009.

I’m quite optimistic about a usable Linux phone in the near future, maybe 5 years from now or so. When smartphones were a new thing, it was really hard for open source projects without a major company backing them to keep up with all the new developments. Hence all the projects that died out. But innovation on smartphones has basically come to a halt these days. Sure, your phone can get a little bit faster and have round displays now, but nobody cares anymore. Nothing of all that is essential. So, give it some time, we’ll get there.
