It’s beyond my mind that x86(-64) survived to this day. It’s so inefficient

Edit: to clarify: I know nearly nothing about processors, so maybe the architecture isn’t really that inefficient. All I know is that after Apple switched to its own ARM-based chips, the programs could run faster using the same or less energy. Even with the compatibility later

Poles. Facebook groups are used like Reddit in USA

Clothes. My current phone has a few years already, but because all the new phones are huge bricks I’m not in hurry to get a new phone. Also it took me many phones to finally find one that is compact, smooth, has a clean interface and doesn’t require service visits every few months (Xperia Z1)

How is the situation with banking apps and DRM stuff on Lineage? Would the following be possible?

1. Unihertz would give all files necessary for LineageOS to support Jelly Max
2. The Lineage community would provide the sources with support for Jelly
3. Unihertz would build and sign an official build of LineageOS

All of these distros strive to solve the problem with having multiple versions of libraries and programs coexisting without conflicts, but Gobo took a different approach. What Gobo doesn’t do is the declarative system configuration. In Nix you don’t need to worry about breaking your system because you can easily restore the previous version of your config. In traditional distros you would need to set up package manager hooks to make snapshots and create snapshots manually every time before changing something in /etc

Well, the configuration and state in both cases is all over the place. I admit that since the move to push program directories to /usr and the XDG share/config directories the problem has been largely solved. I only shared my perception when I was learning Linux, which was right after Mandriva came out

That’s a good distinction, thanks

When switching from Windows, it was very confusing to me, that program files where all over the place. It was before (almost) every distro switched to the /usr directory, so it was even worse than it is now. Even now, when I understand more about Linux than before, I still prefer the Windows way.

I think that this hierarchy is nice for people moving from Windows, but experienced enough that they could understand the docs and tweak the OS.

I was actually surprised that this distro was designed with more experienced people in mind, I thought it was for beginners.

First Amarok 3, now this‽

Edit: The previous release was four years ago? I was pretty sure it was abandoned earlier

There was the Linux Standard Base project, but there were multiple issues with it and finally it got abandoned. Some distributions still have a /etc/lsb-release file for compatibility.

People thought the same about JVM

A Logitech gaming headset, I think it was G332. My main headphones broke, and I needed some ASAP, so I went to the local store and bought them as backup ones. The black paint on the padding started peeling off almost immediately and it got everywhere, like sand.

There are two camps of Arch users:

1. Use it despite it breaking on every update, because of AUR and other benefits
2. What? Arch breaks?

A modern equivalent of let me google that for you, but a more obnoxious one

Are there any disadvantages of schuko sockets against the French/Belgian/Polish ones? If I ever can afford my own apartment, I would like to install schuko sockets instead of the ones with the pin which are standard in my country.

The people on the picture look like they were forced to smile under a death threat

OpenSUSE is German
