Removing bloat doesn’t necessarily make things unstable. I remove all the games from my KDE Plasma installs. The primary mistake that can occur in removing non-essential programs is ignoring the list of programs that this is a dependency of or also removes.

Was going to say this. Pycharm is probably the only paid software I use. With that being said, students don’t need to pay for it, so I don’t have to worry about that.

I’d say having these groups coordinate in a platform where government officials are able to gain easy access is better than banning them and forcing them to move to more secure methods of communication.

With that being said, I do think most social media (even Lemmy) could do a better job at vetting what content is recommended to or seen by users.

Mandatory disclaimer: I in no way support these groups or their beliefs.

They’re not becoming Apple 2.0, Apple is becoming Microsoft 2.0. If you look into the history of Microsoft and Windows, you’ll see that they’ve always been this way, but have received more pushback in the past. Microsoft is the OG tech giant empire.

“So I decided YES”

I’m under the impression that you currently can’t install plasma 6 on Ubuntu, as the repos aren’t available yet. That would make option 2 the only possible option.

It’s less that you can’t, more that it would be impractical to do it.

That’s not what I’m saying here. Voting with your wallet implies that you expect to see some change as a result of your decision, I’m saying that you should make your decision with the expectation that a trend towards negative quality will continue.

There are suitable alternatives to both subscription based services and filmed media. If you aren’t satisfied with something you’re paying for, it doesn’t make sense to keep on paying for that.

While Netflix raised their prices, they also have been delivering less high-quality and more low-quality content. The raised prices merely indicated to people that the services they’re paying for to get away from cable TV are becoming more and more like cable TV.

People who complain about a service instead of finding an alternative are the main problem here, as they’re doing nothing to change the situation they’re currently in.

Using a 5 year old dell xps 15

This happened like a month ago. I recall hearing this argument before.

I like this reference. Funnily enough I read somewhere that Subway actually did a campaign like that episode.

Assuming that it’s actually reverse engineered, this is great news. If not, there’s a massive lawsuit brewing.

Not to mention the numerous amount of accessories that use USB-A. My keyboard, mouse, and flash drives all use USB-A.

In my cable collection, odds are that if a cable has USB-C on one end, then either USB-A or C is on the other end. That means every other connector still requires USB-A or a dongle.

USB-A‘s longevity (~20 years) basically ensures that until it’s much cheaper to use USB-C, it won’t replace USB-A.

Is the correct word to use here grammatically.

I commonly use the following font families:

Hack

Noto

Inter

Helvetica

Montserrat

Space Grotesk

Times New Roman

Atkinson Hyperlegible

Cormorant (Garamond)

You’ve basically ignored the question, and instead explained why decentralized services can’t be taken down.

The answer is that there is no good reason to use this above Mastodon, as Mastodon is free and open source, is not a scam, alongside having a larger community. Signal is also an encrypted messenger operating on an open source protocol, and again does what Wiremin does but better.

My experience with flatpaks has been mostly good. I tend to opt more towards .deb based apps, with flatpak being a fallback option. With that being said, the Pycharm Pro and Spyder flatpaks don’t run well at all on my system, with Pycharm being too heavy, and Spyder crashing due to Kvantum incompatibility.

Was not expecting to see a pregnant sonic flying a plane today.

**There’s no jailbreak for iPhone 13 on iOS 16.0 yet. ** You can check jailbreak status here: link The discord server also will let you know when jailbreaks are released: link You’re lucky to be on iOS 16.0 as you’ll have access to both MDC and KFD exploits. These give some of the jailbreak functionality. You’ll want to install Sidestore (to sideload apps) and Cowabunga (to remove 3 app limit) to get access to tweak functionality.
