Having said that, it’s true that you actually can run some windows software through Wine but it’s a hack and it’s not going to work as well as it would on the OS it was designed for.
Most Steam games built for Windows run perfectly fine under Linux, many even better than on Windows. 10 years ago you’d have been correct, but the landscape has changed drastically.
Just as a warning, the macvlan stuff isn’t well documented and seems to have hard limits. I worked with it a couple of years ago and had to eventually read a lot of Docker code to figure some stuff out, and the host was only able to successfully set up 4 macvlan networks at a time - the fifth (and any following ones) were never reachable, even though I used the same scripts as for all other ones.
Things might have improved in the meantime.
Awesome, thank you!
Thank you for the validation, sometimes I feel like I’m going crazy with how often these things are repeated.
But those lectures do sound interesting - would you mind linking them when you have the time?
I don’t understand the tendency to attribute harmful behaviours of the rich and powerful to these strange, irrational reasons. No, UK leaders didn’t spend millions upon millions on propaganda because they have a fragile identity. They did it because they’ll make money off of it, and will be able to move the legislation towards their own goals.
It’s the same when people say Putin invaded Ukraine because he wants to restore the glory of the Soviet Union. No, he doesn’t care about any of that, he cares about staying in power and becoming more powerful. One of the best ways to do so is to invade other countries, as long as you don’t lose.
Why would the app size be the lowest? I could maybe see that for one single AppImage (though I don’t expect a significant difference), but as soon as you have two or more apps, sharing dependencies would make Flatpaks smaller than AppImages.
It depends. I really liked Mozillas initiative for local translation - much better for data privacy than remote services. But conversational/generative AI, no thank you.
Don’t, atomic systems aren’t made for these kinds of changes.
I hate it, makes me look much less like a hacker while installing pre-built software from other people
No way they have CD set up. The interns are raw-dogging that shit through FTP, like in the good old days
You are 100% sure that there is no mention of Wikipedia being integrated into Firefox/Chrome in any page? How thoroughly have you checked?
Where do you see it working? I see the result:
There were no results matching the query.
The extension mentioned in the post is supposed to:
return the relevant quote and inference for the user, along with links to article and quality signals
I don’t see any relevant quotes, or links to articles, or quality signals.
I tried with your comment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?go=Go&ns0=1&search=I+can+currently+right-click+and+then+click+"Search+on+Wikipedia"+in+the+context+menu.++I+believe+this+works+in+both+FF+and+chromium+browsers.
Why doesn’t this work? If your complaint were valid, this should work.
sudo apt autoremove --purge snapd && sudo apt-mark hold snapd
Just make sure your friends are doing okay, and you’ll be good
The Podman developers did contribute to Docker for a while before starting the project. Docker kept introducing issues and had some fundamentally bad design decisions that they didn’t want to change.
At least try to look into the history of these things before making broad and easily falsifiable statements.
Podman wasn’t built due to NIH. Docker has real problems (though many have been fixed), and Podman was built to fix those.
I’m mostly worried about how much less open this will make the web for simple local hacking. I often add small features to webapps I use by injecting code and hooking into their systems (when it’s not an app with open source, where I send a PR instead - and if I can work around issues I do contact the owners with a working fix).
This will be much harder with WebAssembly. Sure, there’ll be decompilers in time - but in the time it takes me to change a small piece of behaviour in such cases, I can add multiple features in the current JS environment, even if the code is obfuscated.
I don’t think there’s a way to make it work for both cases.
It’s actually important that the rail gives in and deforms, as this reduces a cars energy much more quickly and safely than if it were rigid. Unfortunately this also makes them much less effective for larger vehicles.
In the end, it’s a question of protecting as many people as well as possible.
So freedom of speech doesn’t exist anywhere? Literally every place has some restrictions.
