Yeah, but there is no separation between being able to do day to day administrative actions like installing software, and being able to do destructive actions no one should need to do unless in exceptional circumstances.

Yeah, I feel like Linux needs the equivalent of Administrator accounts on Windows. Root is the equivalent of the System account on Windows, something even power users might never encounter, because it’s a level of power you shouldn’t ever need.

We need users to have permission to install software and do other administrative tasks, without having permission to do very destructive actions like uninstalling core system packages. Aunt Flo should be able to install Mahjong from her distros package manager GUI, without needing dangerous root access.

Which is his fault, but also this would never happen on Windows. The power and lack of hand-holding of Linux is a great advantage for power users, but with great power comes great responsibility, and many people don’t need the responsibility.

Or, because Apple gets a free service that would cost an insane amount of money if they were to pay API fees or build their own data centers and models, and OpenAI gets free advertising by being included in millions of Apple devices. Seems pretty simple.

Agree, I just wouldn’t call that “never willingly using proprietary software”.

Even Stallman said games are an unfortunate, but reasonable exception. Of he can see it, anyone can.

I wish that was possible, but it’s not feasible to get a lot done on a 15 year old ThinkPad or whatever, that doesn’t have any proprietary firmware.

Yes, and what does it change for the purpose of this post? The question wasn’t what’s the best software you use in your leisure time for non-work purposes.

What aren’t you happy to financially support creators of open source software you like?

As in, you can type in the password but when you submit it, the login page says it’s the wrong password? Or as in you can’t get the password box to accept focus? Or as in when it has focus and you press a key, it doesn’t add dots to the box indicating you’ve typed in a character?

Not accepting password can mean any of this, or something else. You said what you did to fix it but you didn’t say what was the actual problem you had.

It’s a shame you ignored the questions you were replying you. It could help someone see if they have the same problem to know if they should try your solution.

Because the URL is lying, and the image is not a jpg.

I like it, it’s much smaller than PNG and JPG for the same quality. I save all my images as webp.

How’s the AMD drivers situation on Linux? I always used Nvidia since they have official drivers, but might change for the next card if AMD works better. I don’t use Wayland so never ran into the issues.

Running a text editor as root is useful if you are editing a system file.

4. They check the Windows version or whatever and the one reported by wine is compatible. It won’t actually work since it’s not actually running that version of Windows.

Also Dyson Sphere Program. They are all amazing factory games, but personally I like DSP the most when playing alone, and Satisfactory for multiplayer. And yes they all run fine on Linux.

Obviously your way works fine, but I think a browser extension could make it 100% automatic.

Games work quite well in a VM, with GPU passthrough. I use a Windows VM for VR games. The non-game program here being the drivers for my VR headset, which only work on Windows. The games themselves would probably work fine on Linux, so that’s not the issue, but without drivers it’s a no go.

You should submit resumes as a PDF. This both guarantees it will look the same everywhere (regardless what you made it in, whether it’s Word or Latex or Google Docs), and it will prevent shady recruiters from editing it, which sadly does happen.
