Well, that’s good. The less features the site has the better. Here’s to hoping they’ll fade to obscurity!

“the job market is so fucked up so but I’ve done a lot of open source work, here’s my Github”

Economy 2.0 is next week I think (hope!) - so this is just vanilla breakage.

The obvious recommendation is Gentoo stage1 tarball running in Windows Linux Subsystem.

(on a serious note: whatever you’re running on your daily driver)

The rubber keyboard was pretty weird first, felt a lot like cheap pocket calculator, but once you got used to the BASIC shortcuts, you could program like a champ on it.

So, is this the type of SLAM you’d typically see in a moshpit? Or are we talking about wrestling slams?

Manor Lords all the way. There’s a big Cities Skylines II patch coming out this week (I hope). I might fire it up and check it out. It’s getting close to “release quality” after pretty crappy release.

What else am I missing?

Large scale manufacturers pre-installing Linux? Readily available multi-language support for home users? Coherent UI regardless of computer and distro underneath. Billions on lobbying money spent on politicians for favorable policy crafting? Billions spent on marketing campaigns to actually sell the idea to the masses who simply don’t care any of your points (or any technical reasons, privacy or anything else that might be top of mind of the current Linux userbase).

I’d say Linux has a good chance of capturing 5-6% of the market in the coming years if lucky (I believe we’re somewhere around 4% at the moment), unless one of the big tech monopolies decides to start throwing money into it (Like Google did with Android)

!environment@beehaw.org used to be cool, but it’s heating up!

The only AI function I could see myself using is one that would summarize 15 minute youtube videos into coherent readable text in blog format. That would be nice. Especially when they’re posted like this, just links without much context.

So your requirement with cellular calling (eSIM) is already fairly restrictive and depends on which market we’re talking about. Where I live (.se) you get to choose between Apple and Samsung and since Apple was out of the question, you’re stuck with Samsung.

Not entirely sure if your second requirement with long battery life can be fulfilled. You’ll be charging the watch every day, probably more often if you take calls on it.

There’s some rumors that Garmin Forerunner/epix will get eSIM support, but that will be also carrier dependent.

These wearables are pretty complicated high end devices, I wouldn’t really give them to elderly parents who stuggle using a normal mobile.

I think it might be better to look into other tyoe of devices like pager systems from caregivers, if you’re worried about health issues.

I thought it was funny as well. Sometimes FOSS communities are so very uptight, we should relax a bit.

Yeah, well just go ahead and see if it works for you now. I doubt much has changed, but some bits are probably more polished these days.
Most distros support some kind of LiveCD, so you can try it out without having to reinstall your machine, it’s painless and quick to evaluate before you take the plunge.

A quick search reveals this. Might be helpful. https://davejansen.com/asus-zenbook-duo-and-fedora-linux/

Looks like AI wrote the article

These attacks range from phishing attempts to sophisticated malware intrusions. Website defacement attacks and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are often seen during significant events

…

And these tactics can also be replicated elsewhere. Other countries worried about the impact of cyberattacks and disinformation campaigns on their elections and democratic institutions should be paying attention.

These tactics are already being replicated elsewhere. This has been the normal Internet background noise for years. This is not news.
However, just as in 2014 when Russia was preparing for Crimea annexation, the amount of targeted (cyber and kinetic) escalated. Same again before Ukraine invasion. That’s what we should be paying attention to - not everyday “millions of cyberattacks” or hybrid misinformation war - those are already happening. and should be handled as basic boring Internet hygiene.

We should be building resilience against targeted pre-invasion cyber. We should be building ways to take down drones, we should be building robust satellite communication networks so we don’t have to rely on kindness of tech billionaires. We should find more robust ways of navigating because GPS is too easy target.

In short, we should be learning from the Ukraine conflict, which is the first (and currently only) real live theater for cyberwarfare.

Knowing history, that’s a one tape I have no intention of listening. RIP the crew and all other early space flight pioneers who perished pushing the boundaries of our planet.

Those were not unmoderated. Just radically differently moderated.
