  • That’s how you get “general secretaries” and “chairmen of military commission” who are totally not Supreme Leaders.

    Any attempt to “limit” power by declaring that there are no rulers and everyone is “just a comrade” only leads to obfuscation of power and complete shift to backroom politics.

    There are people who like being told what to do and there those who enjoy giving orders (and “apolitical” people who “just want to live their lives” are actually part of the first group). Hierarchical systems will form one way or another, whether codified or not.




  • Do you see it with all videos? Could be a problem with a specific encoding parameters that some videos use.

    Also, have you installed codecs from rpmfusion? You need them for hardware decoding with non-flatpak players (and browsers) since Fedora complies with US patent law and don’t have those codecs by default, and uses h264 codec from Cisco instead which sucks. What does vainfo command says (you may need to install libva-utils)?



  • VPN does very little to stop fingerprinting done by websites. Your IP address is only a tiny bit of information in a vast ocean of data that websites can collect from you. “VPN = privacy” is a marketing scam. The only ones it protects your from is your ISP. VPN’s purpose is to hide you web traffic from your ISP, bypass website bans kindly mandated by the government to “protect” you and enforced by ISP, or to hide torrent traffic (again detected by your ISP), etc.

    I don’t think Fedora has a “stable” channel. It has “testing” repo from which updates are pushed to “updates” repo after approval, and that’s it. My understanding is that ublue’s “latest” channel follows Fedora’s “updates”, while “stable” seems to update weekly (though it’s unclear what happens if a package update arrives in Fedora just before “stable” image is about to be built)
