Minor upgrades don’t usually come to Debian at all, unless they are fixing some critical vulnerability or something, but that is usually patched over the previous version anyway.

I’m a cheap guy, and honestly I got the cheapest Kindle (I believe 2022) and I’ve been reading books from Calibre without issues.

No other e-reader was as cheap as that, and it… Just works.

It’s about colors. I’m not an expert, but there is something about professional color stuff that is still in the works to migrate to Wayland.

And of course for Krita it’s quite crucial that colours are right.

Finding activities and hobbies that align with your values and make you groe.

Yes, mindless hobbies are also fine, but for me, participating in local FOSS communities and the like makes it a very fulfilling activity, and a way to learn more things.

Then there’s me who installs VLC and calls it a day. I mean… It does the job perfectly fine.

Also there is no casino algorithm showing you what big data knows will make you stay for a while.

In TikTok or instagram reels, you don’t follow people you like. You just watch stuff happening.

To be honest, I’m waiting until we finally get federated git hosting, specially if done with ActivityPub. I think it fits too well the use case.

I believe forgejo is getting there, but it’s still not possible.

If you are a student, you should be able to organize with some of your classmates or friends.

Also, maybe consider LanguageTool instead of Grammarly, at least it’s not fully closed source.

The Hyperloop still hasn’t happened in an age where we can grab rockets from the sky.

It was just a great idea to stop development of high-speed rail so cars could still make sense for longer.

Hopefully USA seems to be realising already: https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/22/hyperloop-one-elon-musk-high-speed-rail/

I mean, being able to carry a little thing with multiple OSs AND STILL being able to use it as portable storage for other stuff is really useful.

Wasn’t matrix 2.0 a thing already?

😅 thank you!! Following ISO 8601 is always appreciated.

That’s an actual great point, noted.

Another week, another incorrect weekday format.

It’s 2024-W39, you are welcome.

But Wayland is waaay better than X in basically everything? Performance and security are simply in another league entirely. And these 2 are the most important factors.

The rest of the “features” will be eventually there. In fact, mostly are there already. I’ve been using Wayland 2 years without issues. The important thing is that now the sofware is solid, the code is clean and the performance is amazing. Growing from there will be so much better than from X11.

That’s the thing, for me, it’s too much money every month for a one-time setup and maybe 15 minutes maintenance every 3 months. But if you feel it’s still worth it, go for it.

I think the standard is ~/.local/bin, for the people that like standards.

I understand. But that should make you automatically realise that you should give that old fat/broken laptop a chance to be plugged into your TV. Put a 10 $ remote mini keyboard there and no one will touch the TV interface again.

It’s in the official docs for zoxide, you are supposed to use the z alias, and many distros just set it up directly like that. I love doing z notes from wherever I am.

I can understand if you want to pay. But don’t say it’s hard to block ads when all you need is uBlock origin installed… And that’s it. It’s literally a 15 seconds job for the rest of the life of your browser.
