Better than snaps and AppImages. Do I want every package on my system to be replaced by a Flatpak? No. Am I glad that I can ex. install Zotero as a Flatpak instead of having to build it myself? Yes.

Very cool, looks like a more feature-rich version of ytfzf.

You are onto something here…

Just use Ollama.

I’d buy a Nokia flip phone immediately if HMD would stop locking the bootloaders of their KaiOS devices. Great little gadget, very little customizability.

I am not sure if advertising is a necessary evil. I guess I do not like being sold something constantly, and when I am in the market for anything, I will expose myself to advertising willingly, but it is, in way, a matter of consent. I can imagine that there is also people who like being sold things unsolicited, you know, they might say that they like discovering new products through advertisements.

If only it wouldn’t cost… 200€. I could buy 6 Ergo MXs for that same price. Of course, you avoid e-waste and all, but come on now, that’s a lifestyle product if I have ever seen one.

Unfortunately no, there is no DRM-free release of Hades.

Why does every platform try to be everything nowadays?

Older games used to have this by default. I remember playing Quake II with fire bound to CTRL alongside with mouse look enabled.

The game looks really nice, but knowing Paradox’s DLC policy, I am not sure if I can afford this game over the next five years. Release incomplete game, release DLCs for missing base features… the Paradox way. Bleugh.

I recently bought Invisible Inc., a turn-based tactical stealth game. I had my eye on it for almost 8 years now, but I seldom found time to play any other game than DotA. Now that I have beat my addiction, I can finally enjoy some games I had on my wishlist for a very long time. I also bought the first two Thief games and Grim Fandango Remastered.

Grim Fandango made me tear up. I have never had so much fun in years playing a video game. I really enjoy adventure games (played Myst, Monkey Island, Beneath a Steel Sky) but I have the feeling that this style of game is a bit out of fashion currently. Any recommendations for modern adventure games?

GNUbuntu was an Ubuntu derivative that delivered only free software in the default install. It was abandoned for gNewSense and ultimately, Trisquel.

For 350€, you can buy yourself a Radeon Pro workstation card. I have a W6600 in my Linux workstation, works great with Blender. For about 80€ more, you can buy yourself the current gen AMD entry workstation card: W7500. The W6600 is sufficient too, it’s the last-gen high-end workstation card nevertheless.

I personally prefer Team Red on Linux. Much better driver support.

Whoa, that website has a slick design!

2138 is the year of the Linux desktop!

I didn’t know the “Machines should work. People should think.” slogan had a name. I thought it was something they came up for the Paperwork Explosion ad campaign.

Exactly. At times, Debian offers more package granularity than Arch, which is really the key to minimize bloat. imo one should use Arch for the bleeding-edge packages it provides, not for the rather exaggerated minimalism argument. Almost every distro can be reduced and micro-optimized to be as minimal as possible.
