No, even better. They could have learned from our (the US) mistakes the way Biden urged them to. Why go through what you just witnessed did not work?

Another thing to note, it seems that immutable is the future of linux. The Fedora project roadmaps the Atomic desktop taking over the traditional Workstation. OpenSUSE also looks to be moving to it as the default in Leap 16. Being new to the ecosystem might be advantageous because you don’t have the old habits.

I’ve heard the argument that it isn’t genocide because Isreal doesn’t intend to destroy Palestinians. I guess their defense is that Isreal is just incredibly inept at fighting a war? I don’t buy it. How anyone can deny the genocide after the World Central Kitchen incident is beyond me.

I used one with Fedora for a while. The problem I had is whenever it would randomly disconnect, Fedora could not handle it gracefully. It would lock up the system and require a hard reboot. Windows has been a bit more graceful about things. I’m hoping the next generation or maybe oculink will be better.

I’ve been using this image with different providers for years. I would highly recommend it.

I was just adding context to the Fedora part of your statement. Honestly, Fedora has some work to do in order to really leverage it fully. When they fully integrate snapper, or something like it, then it will be actually using the benefits of btrfs imo.

Pigeonholed on Linux because of the incompatible license. It can’t be a part of the kernel. No technical reason it can’t, only legal reasons it can’t.

Fedora adopted it as default with Fedora 33. SUSE has been using it as default for many years now. Facebook is one of the largest users and contributors to btrfs. It’s a solid filesystem when it’s not used to do things it warns you not to do.

You could potentially do it even better the other way around. You can use clevis and tang to have network bound disk encryption setup. That way, anytime you’re connected to your network the disk auto decrypts. For laptops, I like to put a decryption key on a USB drive that auto decrypts the drive. Network bound disk encryption doesn’t work over wifi and this way I can still have it decrypt on the go but lock it by removing the USB key (like if you leave the laptop in the hotel room just take the USB out and keep it with you).

The truly stand-alone part is the worst part. It doesn’t integrate with your system well and has no convenient way to keep apps up to date.

I could argue that it’s the worst of the three… Appimage is awful.

You aren’t using the Steam flatpak?

I agree. There is plenty to dislike about him that where he is from doesn’t really have to be part of it.

Okay… But Musk is from South Africa, which very much did have apartheid.

I joined Reddit in 2011, it was great. I joined Lemmy after the API price changes meant I couldn’t use my favorite app anymore. Lemmy at that time was a lot like early Reddit. It changed at break neck speed. I guess that’s just the times we’re in now. Everyone in their tribes and if you’re not part of their narrowly defined tribe, you’re the enemy.

It’s kind of wild that Lemmy seems to be even more left and hive minded than Reddit was. In the earlier days, it seemed like it wasn’t going to be that way.

I don’t disagree with anything you said. You’re right on every account. We’re still seeing it in action as Feinstein refuses to step down and backing up the appointment of judges. RBG and Feinstein both destroyed their legacies by hanging on to power for far too long. It’s insane that Mitt Romney, of all people, is the one I agree with. He’s not going to run and encouraged other old people to stop running and let the next generation have a chance.

I didn’t say it was fine… I said it’s to be expected and the reason they need guard rails.

You can get mad at Amazon, but really it’s the Supreme Court you should be mad at. Amazon is going to take advantage of whatever it thinks will make them more money. The government is the thing that is supposed to keep them in check.

Edit: A lot of people seem to be reading something different from what I wrote. I didn’t say you shouldn’t be mad at Amazon, or that Amazon isn’t at fault for their own actions. What I did say is that you should expect this type of behavior from a business and should expect our government to do a better job at keeping this behavior in check.

That’s really cool. I guess the only advantage is pushd and popd is that they’re usually already installed.
