That tweet must be some kind of joke, because I don’t know what to make of the many people who use Linux outside of embedded and server applications. And it doesn’t even have to be my hearsay because the Steam Deck is exactly such a device.

In fact, I have a USB audio interface which I use near daily on Linux that has no driver support in modern Windows, because the vendor only provided beta support for Windows 7 as that OS was releasing. By Windows 8 it was unsupported. So the journey of that device is XP->Stable, Vista->Stable, 7->Unstable, 8±> Non-functioning. If the driver ABI were so stable, why does my device not work on Windows anymore?

Gamer-focused derivative of Fedora Linux.

I’d not heard of your site before, but it sounds like it was a cool thing while it lasted. That seems to be the trend of the day. The cool things are giving way to very dumb things.

There is no .srt in this case. This is also not about bitmap dvd vobsubs.

The Epson initially worked with 3rd party ink then after a software update didn’t

Infuriating!

Interesting observation. It is indeed already installed with Fedora.

Apple bought and sponsored CUPS, essentially, until they no longer did. That story is very briefly touched on here https://www.phoronix.com/news/Apple-No-More-CUPS

I don’t know the full history of mdns and zero config networking, but Bonjour is indeed Apple’s implementation of it. In my printer’s web config page it specifically lets me enable/disable Bonjour, so I assume they are using Apple’s implementation. On Linux we have Avahi as a competing piece of software to provide the same service.

Seems unfair to not share what I’ve been printing! Plus some status/config pages and I ran a few tests to see how I can manually duplex print (odds then evens on the back). I only have a few sheets of printer paper so I’ve been running them through again and again 😆

I’d be willing to bet if you put a calendar reminder in one year to check back on this you’d find that this car did not actually reach the mass-produced stage of industry.

Sounds like your school needed better funding and more teachers. 50 students per class? I’m sorry you had to suffer that. This is the future that people like the CEO of DuoLingo want. They want to gut traditional education. Don’t see how this makes him right about anything.

Stressing out in what way? For the viability of your job being lost to this ai bullshit? For the outcomes of students who will just try to chatGPcheaT their way through everything?

Damn maybe they shouldn’t have let the USA dictate the terms of diplomacy in 2022 and sued for peace then. The only deal worse than being America’s enemy is being America’s “Friend.”
