Here’s an exhaustive list of modern replacements:

But surely this petition with nearly 400 signatures will convince them there’s a business case for supporting Linux!

You are completely correct. There are so many exits before becoming a billionaire that any normal person would take.

Once you have millions you can live comfortable. Tens of millions and you’re set for life, you can live in luxury without ever doing another day’s work.

Hundreds of millions and you can buy anything you ever want or need. The only reason to continue accumulating money is because you get some fucked up pleasure from it.

You can claim you “earned it” through “working hard” but it’s a pathetic assertion. The simple fact is money is only gained at the expense of others.

Yep, I’m with you. Project Bluefin is exactly what I want from an OS. My previous Linux experiences had all been awful UX, having to diagnose obscure issues and copy pasting decipherable terminal commands. Until Bluefin, nothing ever worked straight out of the box.

Bluefin’s main issue right now is a lack of good documentation. Like you, I’ve tried to get devcontainers working and they just don’t.

As others have said, not with Linux Mint.

However if you were running an atomic distro such as Aurora, Bazzite, Project Bluefin, or Fedora Silverblue you can “rebase” from one to another.

With an atomic distro all the system files are immutable, you can read them but only the OS can change them. As there’s a clear distinction from user files (anything in /var or /home) the OS can simply replace all the system components with a new distro and re-mount your files.

Boost has user tagging as well.

Only issue is the tag and report dialogs look exactly alike and multiple times I’ve unknowingly clicked report in error. I’m kinda surprised I never got criticised for abusing the report function when all I’ve written is “pro-russia” or “idiot”

“Mirror, signal, manoeuvre” is what we’re taught in the UK. So according to our highway code you’re acting correctly,but obvs that may be different elsewhere.

Basically you only signal after you’ve confirmed there is space and that it is safe to do so, therefore the time between indicating and actually acting is minimal.

The main problem you see is some people drive aggressively and use signalling as a demand that others make space for them, move out of their way etc. That’s not how it’s meant to work.

I suspected that to be the case but left it somewhat open for the user to provide a source

I think that’s because instance admins are very hands on and take action to remove questionable content.

What the absolute fuck. That’s insane if true.

With the nature of federation that then must cause issues for admin of other instances who end up federating that content.

What you’re describing aren’t issues with Wayland.

Your complaints are that you’re using old versions and poorly designed software.

Those aren’t Wayland issues they’re poor management and lack of investment

We do have alternatives to vaccines though:

You simply ban abortion and sex education which increases the birth rate and therefore it doesn’t matter that a few babies die from preventable illnesses.

That’s not semantic versioning…

It could be implemented the same as most email clients do. A simple message “load external content” with an option to always load.

I highly recommend everyone read Invisible Women. It’s full of interesting anecdotes like you’ve just identified.

https://carolinecriadoperez.com/book/invisible-women/

Modern smartphones are too big for women’s pockets and too big for their average hand size so as a result women are far more likely to drop phones and incur unnecessary expense of replacing them. Our world is simply designed around a male default and apparently we just accept that.

What do you do differently? I’ve been on Bluefin for 2 years but still never bothered with dev containers or anything

It’s hardly diminishing your anonymity. There are plenty of services to create an anonymous email account.

There are quite a few in !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Of all the weapons in the vast Soviet arsenal nothing was more profitable than Avtomat Kalashnikova model of 1947, more commonly known as the AK-47, or Kalashnikov.

It’s the world’s most popular assault rifle, a weapon all fighters love. An elegantly simple nine pound amalgamation of forged steel and plywood, it doesn’t break, jam, or overheat. It will shoot whether it’s covered in mud or filled with sand.

It’s so easy even a child can use it, and they do.

The Soviets put the gun on a coin, Mozambique put it on their flag. Since the end of the Cold War, the Kalashnikov has become the Russian people’s greatest export. After that comes vodka, caviar, and suicidal novelists. One thing is for sure; no one was lining up to buy their cars.
