I’d argue dedicating your personality to hating something is much weirder than being a fanboy of it, especially when that thing is a piece of technology nobody is forcing you to use.

Lawyers tend to be honest to the people they’re being paid by.

As they said in the article, they are just listening to their lawyers. I would assume those lawyers are correct.

No problem. I do think they had it as an option before they made it the default whenever Proton is used

If you’re on the newest version you shouldn’t need to manually select anything to use UMU. You just need to be using a Proton runner as your Wine version. I’m using GE-Proton9-15 and I can see in the logs when watching a game that Umu is being used.

No, a dev in their Discord said not to expect it this year.

You can already use umu with Lutris. If you choose any version of Proton as your wine runner, Lutris will automatically use Proton. One pretty major drawback is that Lutris won’t allow you to use winetricks, as umu didn’t add support for it until after the last Lutris release. Heroic supports it as well.

I haven’t seen the Bottles devs give any info about when they might implement. I’m thinking it might not be until Bottles Next.

You can download the driver directly, GeForce Experience isnt necessary.

I’m interested in them finding a way to get AC working, but I really dislike this method of doing so. There are a ton of kernel variations, so this would really only work on specific distros and devices. This becoming standard would likely mean being unable to use optimized kernels, different schedulers, and other kernel modules like the ZFS drivers.

What do you mean by won’t work? chsh is not changing the shell of the entire OS, it’s changing your users login shell. Unless you’ve done something to make your login break without bash, this is completely fine. Using chsh is even how the Fish docs recommend setting it as your default.

What Ubuntu did isnt about login shells, they replaced /bin/sh with dash, meaning any scripts that try to use sh will instead use dash.

I never see people recommend Arch any more. New users should research the distro they should use instead of choosing the distribution they’ve heard of the most.

I really didn’t see anyone asking for this, hopefully it didn’t take too many resources to create. Even though I don’t understand it being made I’ll probably still switch to it, because Exodus feels like it’s getting more and more bloated and annoying to use.

edit: I just realized this wallet only seems to support bitcoin? Why on earth would they do that? Most people holding a significant amount of Bitcoin are storing it in a hardware wallet and rarely transferring it. It sucks to use for actual transactions.

It also says they’re going to be using Framework laptops which is equally cool!

I like lemmy’s design, but I thought it’s user onboarding process was pretty bad when I joined. It’s much better since the join-lemmy.org redesign.

Pretty much everything on the fediverse is just a clone of another social media. Pixelfed still has the most intuitive design for new users and a great onboarding process. Took Mastodon a while to catch up.

Dansup is seriously great at designing social platforms. I don’t have much personal use for it, as I never cared for instagram, but I think Pixelfed is the best designed platform on the Fediverse. I’m sure Loops will be great too. Fantastic name too.

maybe I do suck at it. could you explain it to me?

Not a remotely relevant comparison, and even if it was, completely ignores my second point.

If they’re going to find it on lemmy they’re going to find it anywhere. Also, they already know about ublock origin, and its unlikely they’d even care about unhooked, since it doesn’t block ads.

The company that makes it seems invested in crypto, but what does radicle itself have to do with it?
