DEs need to embrace tiling functionality and transparent windows (eg. playing a YT video under your LibreOffice window). It's the only proper way to use a tablet. Obviously KDE's Windows-like taskbar is a nightmare for tablets but even Android's "deck of window cards" is crappy for anything that you couldn't just as well do on a smartphone.

Languages evolve over time. The term "to serve" is derived from the Latin word for "slave". That does not mean it's somehow offensive to use the term to describe the job of soldiers.

The modern day "riced" comes from "R.I.C.E" which stands for "race inspired car enhancement". If you rice a car, it means you put components that look like race car components but are actually just cosmetic. Fake vents, huge spoilers on family cars, exhausts that are optically bigger, etc. The orange Japanese car in the linked article is an example of that. 70s Japan had renown ricing culture so I guess that's where the R.I.C.E and the racist "rice burner" split.

Nowadays people who use the term "riced" don't even know that at some point in time it had something to do with Asian cars or bikes. It's even common to jokingly associate it with the food with the same name to spite other car nerds because you can "um actually" bait someone to correct you that it has nothing to do with food. Which is obviously not true according to the article but if 99 % of people don't know the racist origin, it's not an issue at all to use the word.

Tbh it's the English language that decides what counts as Open Source. Free/Open Source software has been established for decades at this point. It's good that they changed the name to "Source First".

I think that better wording would be "the organization that doesn't believe that foss solves every problem". For project like immich AGPL is completely fine but for the android keyboard it might not be a good idea to allow Google to use it to abuse their customers.

Tuxedo is part of Schenker, so if they invested heavily into ads they would probably first advertise their Windows counterparts as that market is much bigger. Linux laptops are a niche within a niche so targeted ads make more sense imo.

It exists because FSF. (watch Linus's opinion on FSF) Unfortunately the FSF is full of obsessive people, who want politics to be an if-else problem. But that's not how politics work, you always have to compromise somewhere. You cannot have hardware that uses open-source firmware, has schematics available, doesn't use slave labor, is usable, is secure etc. You always have to choose between different evils.

But that's not what the FSF does. They decided to draw a thick line through this blurry mess, so that these obsessive coders can have a digital high/low solution to this analog problem.

hm how do I continue...? It's hard to explain because it does really make sense but I will try. So if some software runs on your computer and you can modify it from the OS, it has to be Open Source otherwise it's not FSF big wholesum chungus certified. But if it runs on your PC and you cannot modify it from the OS, it can be closed source and still get the Chungus certification. What you end up with is that FSF recommends some old crap wifi cards running proprietary firmware because you cannot modify the firmware without external flashing. But it rules out new wifi cards that load the firmware during boot because the linux kernel cannot have proprietary software in it reeee. Obviously the latter situation is better for freedom because it's at least easier to replace with Free firmware but they don't care about that.

In other words Linux Libre exists only because of some stupid bureaucratic rule that actually harms Free Software instead of helping it.

Wait I haven't told you about microcode updates! Microcode is proprietary software controlling your x86-64 CPU. Linux Libre does not include updates to this firmware even though the microcode is proprietary regardless. So with Linux Libre your CPU is controlled by code that is proprietary, broken and vulnerable to stuff like Spectre or Meltdown. This part is so stupid that it's almost funny. (but it's actually sad)

Garuda advertises a different scheduler so I would think that would make difference. It's also one of the things people recommend to improve gaming performance on Linux. Unfortunately as others have pointed out without 1% lows, there is nothing of value in this video. Saying that with respect to Nick. He should step up his game in this area. Average fps just doesn't tell anything, especially on Linux which is even less consistent than Windows

What benefit would it provide though? It's a microkernel so you could just add non-free drivers in the userspace. Things like Playstation would choose BSD instead.

Nobody is stopping you from discussing it. So far your only contribution to the discussion was bitching about others bitching.

If we limit the discussion to the selfhosted realm, I agree with these people bitching. Nextcloud is too bloated and slow, while not providing many benefits over individual services. You would at least expect it feature ease of use over having individual apps but nope because when you install an update, there is high chance of breakage. End to end encryption has been losing people files for years. Which is imo a big deal in "private cloud".

I guess my point is that the "bitching" is our discussion and you and people who upvoted your comment are free to join it and perhaps provide some examples of your Nextcloud setup and why you think it's good. I'm sure most of us will be nice and won't tell you to keep your comments to yourself.

Lol I've just came on this sub to ask about this. Sunshine has a tutorial in their docs on how to do this on X11 but I'm using sway so I'm kinda fricced. If I start sunshine from ssh, it correctly uses the headless wayland display but it doesn't have rights to access the encoder for some reason.

You can achieve similar (it's gonna be slow though) results with wayvnc. You need export 3 variables in order to set it up according to their FAQ: https://github.com/any1/wayvnc/blob/master/FAQ.md

Edit: noticed your crosspost with answers: https://lemmy.world/post/12888914, thanks for creating this post.

Edit 2: WayVNC can be more usable if you use mosh instead of SSH. It makes VNC less laggy. The downside is that you have to start sway in normal SSH and then start wayvnc in the mosh session, which is kinda inconvenient.

A comment on the open format part:

I got insanely pissed off by recent news (even though I usually laugh at bad news) that the Czech Government cannot have an interconnected eGovernment system between different organizations because each part is made by a different supplier. Jeez just make a fucking github repo, it's not that hard. I just don't get how they can be this stupid, especially considering part of the Government is the Pirate party, The supposed IT guys. These "suppliers" aren't supplying airplane parts, it's merely software.

rant over. I tried to keep the f-bomb count to one, but I'm telling you, it was f- insanely hard. Writing this comment and remembering that atrocity reignited my rage.

edit: explicitly added "eGovernment" system

They are just showing you that you don't need to spend $2000 on Autocad and other listed software, because Zorin has all these open source tools bundled in it.

Though tbh replacing Autocad or office365 with FOSS alternatives are bold claims because these alternatives just aren't viable in a commercial environment.

Thank you very much! This is probably the best answer.

For anyone from the future reading this: From my understanding almost every SBC does not really work with "Linus Torvalds' Linux" which is why one often sees HW manufacturers also providing their own Linux image with the computer. This is fine for development but honestly not something I would want for self hosting stuff. There are few exceptions like the Raspberry Pi but that one is not that much open source. So imo the best option is to look at https://ubuntu.com/download/risc-v where Ubuntu provides "official" images for few RISC-V boards. (The Visionfive 2 is what lead me there.)
