I think it’s been a long time since digital companies tried to solve actual problems.
But the future is inevitable, isn’t it better to be less pessimistic and attempt to be prepared for it instead of just waiting?
It’s not like I hate it but it felt like a review target for a specific audience and with little journalistic work. I was a bit disappointed because he is often refered to be one of the most serious and unbiaised tech reviewers on the internet.
But yeah, that was a first impression indeed.
I think there was some ethical drama in his company a while ago, which might have been recently answered 🤷♂️
I personally didn’t like the very few videos I saw of him, it looked like g@mer consumerist obsessions. The latest I saw was about the last Fairphone release and he was very critical about what I’d call very reasonable design choices, like capping the screen to 60Hz instead of max 90 by default, or having to turn the phone off to swap SD card. This video felt like it was not an honest criticism or intended to a very niche audience (eg. hot swapping SD cards might be critical in the eyes of someone producing video content).
Although shaming newcomers for their distro choice is not a welcoming move 💢
Well, when good documentation is available it isn’t necessary but good documentation is not always available. And it can still be helpful with niche issues 🤷
I hate 2024
But on Linux aren’t most drivers part of the kernel?
Yeah, people who built those modern technologies are mostly over 50, I suppose.
TBH Disney is already mostly producing shit, Pixar movies were still kinda good I think ?
I suppose there are a lot of companies who would be glad to make you pay for their proprietary video standard, we would just pay for something formerly free 😟
And I suppose people at OpenAI understand how to build a formal proof and that it is one. So it’s straight up dishonest.
Ah thanks, I was so frustrated OP didn’t make this meta 😅
I suppose the Steam Deck experience would be a bit worse if it wasn’t running on Wayland 👍
But isn’t that still on par with xorg where you can’t have any fractional scaling?
I think it was world of warcraft. As a kid I had a very bad computer, so windows (Vista I think ?) Gave me something like 15 fps while Linux+Wine gave me 20. It already felt like wizardry that I had better performance while needing a compatibility layer.
I have also some memories of discovering a new land of freedom. When i plugged a CD from the library, Ubuntu’s default music player had a popup “wanna install anti-DRM plugins & make a copy of those tracks?”
Yeah, every debate about reducing the number of cars always ends at something like “too many jobs are involved in the car industry, so we need to preserve these jobs, and also people need cars to go work in these factories”. I feel like there will hardly be a deep environmental breakthrough if it doesn’t come with a deep social change.

I’m relieved that the group I wanted to vote was against. I’m frightened that it was the only one against in France 😱
