Pretty common where I am (mid-atlantic US). I think it’s a newer development, like in the past 20ish years. I’m not sure what the reason is, the semester isn’t any longer it just starts and ends earlier

I mean hierarchy is how we find any specific item in the real world though, so it seems like the best way to organize things on a computer. If I’m looking for a pair of scissors I know to go into my house, into my kitchen, into the drawer, and take the scissors. You can use tagging and things to search, but having that be the main way of accessing files will never be as reliable or repeatable as just looking where you know the file is.


I think part of the problem is that while Linux software is constantly getting more user friendly, the average user is getting less knowledgeable about computers at just as fast of a rate. People even understanding the concept of files and folders doesn’t seem to be a given anymore.


This project does exactly that, it runs a reimplementation of linux specifically to run wine on platforms that it doesn’t natively support. https://github.com/danoon2/Boxedwine


Interesting, how do you recover from that and get your data back?


What makes TPM+pin safer than just having a normal LUKS password? I would think it would be the same amount of security just with more chance of data loss if your computer gets damaged
Waypipe, I was playing with it a couple days ago and it’s way faster than X11 forwarding which is really nice
True, who better to trust than famously non-imperialist russia.
All I know about north korea is that a student from my university went there, was arrested for stealing a poster, and was never seen alive again. But I suppose that’s a lie, the people who went with him must have lied to the media, or maybe every media agency that covered it lied. Surely that’s more believable


Last time I mentioned that someone got angry at me and was like “no one would ever confuse the two, they’re in different product categories”. So to whoever that was, ha ha I win


I’m not sure of replacements for the other apps, but Aves Libre is the best gallery app I’ve ever used and it’s open source
I think Jeff Geerling made a video trying to game on a similar arm system with mixed results. I’m sure it would work, since you can game on a Raspberry Pi using Box86/64, just probably not too well for the money
Foe the umpteenth time, stop making ai generated memes. No one wants to see them
Which honestly would be great for browser competition, I feel like the best thing anyone who buys chrome can do is ruin it so everyone leaves for other browsers


Yeah I’ve never understood how this is a problem people have, I don’t think I’ve ever accidentally pressed it while playing a game
That honestly sounds amazing, especially having Ireland to let you into other EU countries. I’m surprised it’s feasible to get that many citizenships
Yeah that’s such a weird choice, why not like LibreWolf or at least a less weird chromium fork than brave


What on earth are you planning
They’re probably beneficial for people with their own wells
