I use it mostly for YouTube music (which costs almost the same as Spotify), no ads on YouTube is a nice bonus.

I highly disagree with recommending regular users to use virtual machines, it defeats the whole purpose, at the end of the day, you are still using windows, and on top of that, it adds additional complexities that can only create frustration to users.
Do you correct everyone who says Windows instead of Microsoft Windows NT?
Don’t know why, but they skipped a few cities in Switzerland.
Hahaha, too stable and boring… Do you use OSs as a form of entertainment? No wonder why people can’t take Linux enthusiasts seriously.
Way easier, the catalogs are ready for you, you don’t need to download anything in advance, you can use it in any device too.
If you use real debrid, there’s no need for VPN either. So it’s cheaper also.
It’s also very low in maintenance, I touch my configuration every 3 months to update my details and that’s it.
Stremio + Real debrid.
Stremio is a platform to watch any media you like (works very similar to Plex), you can use it as it is, and install the plugins that are more useful to you (torrentio for example). If your country has strict laws, then you can use real debrid to convert the torrents to direct downloads, you just need to open an account in real debrid, pay a few dollars a month (no need to pay for a VPN as direct downloads are ok), and link your account to stremio, and then you’ll have access to lots of content.
But I only use it to watch the latest linux distributions, nothing like spending a Sunday afternoon watching Fedora 40 while it’s raining outside.
I am in academia, and I hate how everyone in my field interacts there. Even my supervisor posts relatively important news there (new papers published or conferences etc).
I used to check it without logging in. But now I can’t see a thread without logging in. From all the fields, I thought academia was the first to leave, but no. I tried the mastodon but it is still a ghost town…
In corporate world, where I think MS makes most of the money, windows is the standard (unfortunately).
Exactly, it’s a ridiculous example because it sounds just as ridiculous as saying US and EU are in principle the same type of union.
I was being hyperbolic with my last sentence so you can see how ridiculous your statement sounds to me.
True, but my point is that if a country decides not to follow one of the directives, they can just leave if they want, they are agreements that they want to be part of, they are not merely imposed by EU. Nothing like the US and their federal government.
This is like saying that marriage and a double match of tennis are the same type of union or follow the same principle, no, they are not.
Sure dude, EU and US, same principle, same as united nations, united airlines and IUPAC. Same principle, they are a union of things, if you mean that as “principle”, sure.
EU doesn’t have rules that everyone has to follow, they have agreements, that are often very specific between nations. UK was part of the EU with their own currency for example. So no, it’s not the same type of union, unless you simplfiy it to "union of things"which of course is the same principle.
Also any member of the EU can leave unilaterally (like the UK), not so much for the US. I don’t think they follow the same principle, again, unless you think of it just as a “union of things”
“not much unlike”? They are both nothing alike, except that they are some sort of union.
I mean, if you say that in real life to anyone who is half aware of how the government works, they would laugh at you.
What no… What are you talking about? EU is not even close to the government structure of the US. Starting that each EU country has their own military, and the EU president has absolutely no power on each of the EU members military.
OP asks a relatively simple question, and gets scolded as it committed murder.
For all we know OP is the only user and is just playing with Linux, and just wants a simple (probably unnecessary) shortcut because he’s GUI oriented.
This is kind of someone asking how to open their lunchbox easier, and get treated like they are giving a copy of their house keys to everyone in town.
Chill… Not everyone is running a maximum security level server. If OP screws their system (like most of us do at some point), I’m sure a fresh re-install would be enough for them.
I don’t remember the study, but some of the plastic packaging can help to keep the food fresh for longer, and then minimise the loss of food, which is actually one of the main issues with food distribution, so counterintuitively, using plastic packaging can actually alleviate the environmental impact. Plastic is extremely good at doing its job, it’s basically impermeable, inert towards food and can last forever (bad thing though).
Is there an alternative to plastic packaging, probably, but l don’t know it if it’s economical.
Being able to kill anyone (who’s clearly not a threat) touching your property, without any repercussions, is the most barbaric, feudalist weirdest shit I’ve ever heard of. This type of shit doesn’t belong to a supposedly developed country. It belongs to medieval vikings.
I mean, that’s what I do, do you think that’s feasible for everyone? No. Not everyone is willing to go through that much hassle.
I use both. Sadly, I have lots of software that doesn’t work (or works pretty bad) on Linux. I love Linux, but there’s no denying it can be frustrated, specially if your hardware doesn’t support it, and that applies to too many people who has no saying in the hardware they use.
So in what world? Corporate world, science, CAD modelling…
I’m fine with this, fuck it, if it takes a pos like Elon to make republicans to buy EV , I’m fine it, the silver lining is that at least both sides will buy electric.
