There is a lot of great innovation coming from the EU. The development of Lemmy is for example funded by the EU public sector.

How does Lemmy affect GDP though, how many work places has Lemmy created? The article is about economics, after all. And what’s the actual innovation? It’s based on a W3C standard and is essentially a clone of reddit. There’s no innovation.

What you’re saying is that the author has made such a revolutionary video that solves problems no other video can solve, that in 30 years this video will be maintained by some of the most brilliant minds on Earth. In other words, the analogy is really, really bad.

How’s it worse or better than some no name’s ranking? At least it’s not a 20-minutes video for something that could be a 10 items list.

What makes you think the result will satisfy your needs? It probably wont, and it definitely won’t satisfy the needs of many other people. We have two major DE based on different toolkits, following different philosophies, having different looks and feels. This is good. You can choose. Or you can pick another DE or WM. That’s why Linux is so attractive.

I think if you have no answer, it could be that NixOS doesn’t solve any problem for you. In effect, it’s not better. Don’t buy into social media hype. It’s just a tool like any other.

You forgot about a VMWare layer!

But will you train an LLM with it??

good battery life (I don’t want to worry about)

Define good battery life.

Lol it’s like a corporation joined Fediverse: “Let’s create a service that’ll do everything.” Specialization is what makes them good.

That’s an improvement. But risk = impact * probability. Realistically, the probability of installing such an app from repos is virtually non-existent. My point is that Wayland comes with some improvements, but I’ve been seeing comments like the one I replied to for almost 15 years, as if Wayland will revolutionize Linux desktop. It won’t. Probably most users won’t see any difference, except for bugs caused by the migration.

If that was true, we would be on Wayland for years. But in reality, it proves minor improvements versus heavy investments to migrate from X. And that’s why it’s still a fetish and not a standard.

I don’t understand this fetish. Every day I read about problems people have with Wayland, while I’ve been using X for the past 15 years without any issues.

I love FOSS.

This post highlights some issues with the commercial software that are obvious to anyone who is working in the industry, but completely ignores issues of the open source software. Both good and bad software is being developed using each model. It’s pointless to compare them this way. Linus in his book provided more substantial arguments in favor of open source.

But why? Isn’t building from sources the whole point of Gentoo?

Merry Christmas!

Wow, it’s even easier to find on the screen. Thanks!

Use whatever you want, why do you care about what feelings other people have towards Ubuntu?

I’ve been using Nvidia and Linux for 13 years. I’ll repeat:

I literally cannot remember the last time I had a driver issue with Linux but go off
