This isnt freeware.
“Free” in free software is free like free speech, not free as in beer.
This is one of the places where english fails. Libre vs gratis

This is not an OS behaviour. KDE is a desktop environment.
If it bothers you so much, remove the DE and use the command line, full time
It’s 2024… Please fix the AI…
Biggest weakness in every civ game is the shitty AI that requires massive cheating, and terrible diplomacy (constantly making ridiculous demands, then getting mad and denouncing you if you dont hand over the goods)
Wait what? Republicans said they fuck couches? I’m out of the loop here.
Exactly. Cant apply for a mortgage if you have an unstable income. Cant plan for having a family without stable income
All the things we take for granted, we just expect journalists not to have because we are all entitled to their work for free
oh yeah, publicly funded research should 100% be open access to the public
go visit any of the news subreddits/communities… any time people post a link to a news site there are a bunch of comments complaining about paywalls, or OP gets downvoted
I’d rather just pay a subscriptiom fee (aka paywall) than buy some branded crap that i dont need…
Like, whatever a creators markup is on a tshirt, i’d rather just give them that money in susbscription fee.
Why would i buy a $55 tshirt and have have the creator take home $5? I’d rather just give them the $5
Patreon is just another “paywall”
Who is going to pay for it? Every time journalists try to get paid enough to eat and have a roof over their head people cry “paywall!!!”
Or if they do ad supported people cry “ad infested cancer site!!” Or “lol adblock!”
Just to be clear, i adblock the shit out of the internet. I prefer some kind of paid model, but i’ll get downvoted to hell for saying that. I’m not smart enough to have any good answers on how to pay journalists. But crying “paywall” at everything is not helpful…
What i dislike is having to have an account and password for everything. There needs to be a better model/system for paying journalists (not just in gaming media)
Currently the only business models are:
And it seems like the only sustainable ones in this day and age are 1 and 2 (to the detriment of our society)
Why not Canada? We have RobCo headquarters in Montreal
i noticed a lot of symptoms of long covid are the same symptoms of being generally out of shape.
“After covid, i got winded after going up the stairs!!”
I mean… Technically fossil fuels are renewable… They’re just renewing at a VERY slow pace
It’s annoying that they’ll put 24GB of RAM on a phone, but theyre still selling $1000 GPU with 16GB
I didnt break anything, but there was this one time i was setting up a new lxc container i had just spun up. I installed nginx, and a bunch of other packages, started writing new config files… Then i noticed my prompt was user@desktop$ instead of user@server$
Whoops… I was in the wrong terminal window, typing commands into my desktop instead of the container i was setting up.
15 years now. First few years part time messing around with ubuntu and mint. I’ve been full time 100% debian on all my servers and desktop/laptop for at least 10 years now.
Debian is the best
Also, Linus is a “woke communist”
I’ve bought and paid for every civ game since civ3…
I even paid for civ4 twice. Boxed CD and on steam… And now you’re going to treat me like a criminal with shitty DRM??? Welp, i guess i’m not buying Civ7, Sid…
No more turns…
