What's this controversy?

I forgot about Chromebooks—granted, I don't really think of those as what I mean. I don't generally think that "user friendly = restricted and less control", though I'm sure others would disagree. I don't think of Chromebooks as real mainstream Linux.

Oh, and the steam deck has done this I believe, though I don't own one so I don't know how restricted that is either.

Recently built a new PC and clean installed Nobara Linux. It's so much... Better. In every way, except for compatibility—and even that's not close to as bad as people say it is. Granted, I had used mostly open source programs before (still quite disappointed that Playnite isn't available on Linux, I do miss that) but I'm using mostly the same software. The pre-done compatibility fixes etc. that the Nobara team has done (huge props to them!) has made it far easier than i even expected. It really is getting to the point that I want a major laptop/PC manufacturer to ship with a polished, user friendly Linux distro, and get the ball rolling.

Wait, I've been out of the loop for a bit; is Trump actually saying that he should be immune to charges because he was the president??? How in the world could he think that would work?

My biggest test for wireless earbuds is if the case is small enough to fit in that pocket. The usefulness of that is incredible, it's like they're not there.

Quick question—does the kiss launch have the ability to hide apps? This is often a deal breaker for me with launchers

I used Niagara free for quite a while. It does have a fair few features locked behind the paywall, but it's certainly usable.

Any reason to switch from InnerTune to this?

I like not mixing it. Then you can get variaty in each bite, and choose what it is.

It’s insane that Americans still tolerate this.

A consistent viewpoint I see on America, is the assumption that if we don't like a politician we can simply say so and they're out of office. One of the biggest problems here is actually that most people feel lacking in their personal control on the government, even local. Everything is such a large scale, that 'speaking up' not only feels like it does nothing—it really does nothing, unless you're famous or something. No one here is happy about how our government works, we just don't have control over it. It's an illusion of control, while the people at the top make the actual choices.

Really cool article—though I really wish more articles like this included sources. Not that I necessarily don't believe it or something, but things like this have scientific papers backing them up, and it makes me uncomfortable when they aren't included
