Gentoo goes Binary (packages)
  • This is what Gentoo needed. I've been using it for a long time and love it as it is but sometimes when there's a bunch of slot conflicts or a compile error it makes me wish I just dealt with binaries instead. Now that we have the best of both worlds, it will make Gentoo appeal to a wider userbase and make it less painful to use on older hardware.

  • What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
  • Any distro that's based on an existing one but changes or adds very little to it. There are so many dead Ubuntu and Debian reskins

  • The Completionist: My Response
  • He's welcoming an audit so now we can wait for the real legal professionals to dig into this. Mutahar uploaded a response but I'm honestly so tired of this situation that I won't even watch it. Karl and Mutahar should have stopped covering this on their initial videos because at this point it just feels like they're milking it for money. What jirard did is really bad and they should have left it there for the professionals to handle it. This is a serious case of fraud that youtuber's shouldn't be making conclusions on.

  • Youtube has started to artificially slow down video load times if you use Firefox. Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away.
  • I had a feeling this was the case. Youtube has been painful for the past month now.

  • YouTuber Jirard (a.k.a. The Completionist) has been accused of keeping and hoarding charity donations
  • Jirard never seemed like the type of guy to pull something like this and I really want to see his response but having the money just sit there (and hopefully still there) for years is a really bad look for him. At the very least he was just clueless but that's still damaging taking into account all the lies on the charity streams

  • I use a trackball because they take up less space but there is a learning curve and you really have to spend time dialing in a sensitivity you're comfortable with.

  • I love seeing stuff like this! I think anyone who is used to windows should try Linux out on a cheap laptop and see how they like it.

  • Gamers who have gamed for a long time
  • I lost interest in new releases a while ago. I mainly play retro games now but I did try the new robocop and it was great. I will be getting that day 1 and it will be the first time I played a new release in years.

  • ‘Reddit can survive without search’: company reportedly threatens to block Google
  • Reddit is only good for solutions though search results but do it anyway. Make it worse and worse until people start looking for alternatives.

  • What's your preferred DE?
  • GNOME

  • Tooltip bug fixed after 22 years
  • Damn. I have dealt with this for so long that I forgot it was even a bug.

  • Not necessarily UI but the overuse of javascript on most websites. It makes browsing the web on low power and old devices a nightmare.

  • Torrent client rankings
  • I have seen this same image circulated for years. We need a new one because transmission in D tier is unacceptable.

  • Top 20 games played on Steam Deck in the past month, sorted by playtime.
  • Check it out. It's a really fun game and perfect for the deck.

  • Twitter is losing daily active users. CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed it.
  • Twitter has had nothing but rage bait and engagement bots for a while now and the tweets are so obviously fake that even the general public is slowly starting to catch on. It's such a cesspool that you would be hard-pressed to find anything remotely entertaining or informative. Instead you will just leave the site with a feeling of disgust and frustration.

  • I am excited about all the changes coming to our DEs!
  • Yeah it's great, It's never been a better time to be a Linux user. There's always something to look forward to and we get more support every year. I'm going to give cosmic a shot when they release it.

  • Free software pioneer Stallman reveals cancer diagnosis
  • Seeing how he looks now is incredibly sad. I really hope he makes it though this.

  • This is frustrating
  • Glad to see another runcat user. It's a must have extension.

  • Stay safe!
  • That's reassuring. I thought anyone outside of the US would think this is a disgusting calorie bomb. I mean it is but fuck it, I'll have it.

  • Dusk: Unpopular opinion: I'd rather pay Valve 30% and put up with their de facto monopoly than help Epic work towards their own (very obviously desired) monopoly
  • I will always support valve because of their amazing Linux support but if GOG finally made a client for Linux then I would try to use that more. I wish Epic would also support Linux but with massive douchebag Tim Sweeney running the company, that will never happen.

    I love the Atari ST and Linux!
