I am using Asuswrt-merlin on my router that does not support openwrt

Start menu looks like Win10/11 with ads, suggestions and news. This is not how XP used looked like

This is why I refuse to buy a "smart" TV. My old flat screen TV works perfectly fine with a Chromecast with Google TV. I can even use the Chromecast in my projector or any other device with HDMI input to make it smarter than most TV interfaces I have tried.

Last time I signed up (a few years ago) you could just enter whatever email you wanted and never bother to verify it. It's only a problem if you forget your password

But not too frequently. Updating too often on Arch will increase your chances of something breaking. Updating once a week or twice a week gives the developers some time to fix bugs and make changes to other packages as needed

"The Microsoft-powered bot says bosses can take workers’ tips and that landlords can discriminate based on source of income"

Well it ain't wrong. Business can absolutely do that and do absolutely do that. If they get caught they get a slap on the wrist and that's it.

As long as the punishment does not match the crime the American society will never get better. This is why proper rules, regulations and oversight needs to be in place. The "free" market will never do the right thing on its own.

This is why I made my own install script for arch that gets me fully up and running with working hibernation and other tweaks. It might not take 5 minutes to install but I only have to press a few buttons and let it run

DaTingGoBrrr ,

Maybe, but it works great for me and I like Arch

Genuinely the only time Arch has broken something I can't fix myself (lemmy.world)

Context: A few days ago Arch pushed out a legitimately broken update. This was because they shipped out a testing version of util-linux. They very quickly fixed this... except I use SE Linux (say what you will I wanted to dive into it) and now I'm stuck waiting for the maintainer to update the AUR package so I can fix my system....

DaTingGoBrrr , (edited )

I just want to say that "Arch" didn't push or update anything. Everything in the AUR is maintained by the community and if something from there breaks then it's not on the Arch team

Vanilla OS 2.0 sounds like it could be for you. That distro can install everything. I mean everything. Ubuntu stuff, Fedora stuff, Arch stuff and whatever else!

DaTingGoBrrr ,

I would assume as any other distro. Windows applications are run through Wine or Proton on Linux.
I am not currently using Vanilla OS on my machine (using arch btw), still waiting for the stable 2.0 to dive in deeper.

To run Windows applications I would install flatpak package support in any of the subsystems (arch, fedora), then install Bottles for Windows applications and Steam or Lutris for games. Never tried Lutris for applications but it might work well too.

Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools (www.404media.co)

this could not be timed worse for Tumblr which is in huge hot water with its userbase already for its CEO breaking his sabbatical to ban a prominent trans user for allegedly threatening him (in a cartoonish manner), and then spending a week personally justifying it increasingly wildly across several platforms. the rumors had...

Wouldn't that be illegal in Europe with GDPR and other consumer protection laws?
