I would say its still open source. There is no requirement to be able to contribute modifications back. It is more about the availability of the code and what you can do with it.

US Agencies and companies do not care when propaganda comes from within, only outside.

My left bumper stopped working consistently on mine. I never have issues with my other controllers.

This feels way too expensive for what is a dumbed down device. Maybe $50-$100, but you would still end up paying quite a bit for something that requires a subscription.

For the price they are asking, you could get a desktop with OK performance that will be free forever after that.

I think it will be difficult. They may be the largest competitor to Windows, but still just a small market share.

I do think it’s funny when people hate the way Microsoft has directed Windows when Apple is way worse.

Makes sense to continue the support since these components may be reused in other systems.

I’m a vim user and I would say it’s not. It’s very powerful, but only once you become familiar with the commands.

Nano is a better default for the average user because it works in a way most users would expect for a text editor to work.

Thanks. I remember seeing that thread on Mastodon, but I hadn’t associated it with his actions. I think open logs are good and if someone acts like that as a moderator, it is best if they step down.

Can you provide some more information about him abusing his powers here?

Go ahead and report it to the Mint team. Even if it is an issue upstream, they will verify the issue and then report it as well. Never hesitate to report a bug you find, especially if it’s a security or privacy issue.

Even if the bug is a duplicate, it helps to know other people are having the same issue. At worst they will mark your report as a duplicate, which will let you know they are aware of the issue.

Almost every emulator lets you remap buttons on your controller. There is nothing that stops you from mapping the buttons based on position instead of what the face button says. There are also plenty of controllers you can use on PCs that have the Nintendo layout.

How so? It’s just a controller that is just the most standard for PC because Microsoft fully implemented the drivers in Windows.

Both are fine. Ufw has a set of applications that are defined in terms of what ports they need for convenience. You wouldn’t have to know that 3389 is for RDP, you could just allow RDP. Ufw ultimately modifies the iptables, it is just another interface for interacting with it.

Ads in Windows Explorer was the final straw to make me switch to Linux a few years back. I would imagine that ads in the Start Menu could convince some others to do the same.

I’ve been waiting for this update for a while since GE doesn’t do wine 9.0 builds.

Seems you already fixed it, but in general the system should be updated with nobara-sync or dnf distrosync. Sometimes he will downgrade packages so it’s best to just have it synced up with the same versions upstream.

I think most people are just used to Window’s BS, so these issues are just expected and they know how to fix them.

Linux has an easier experience getting up and running, but when they have an issue, usually it’s something completely different from what they have experienced before and get frustrated.

This is why mainline OEMs shipping computers with Linux by default will be a huge step forward.

Those updates in Discover are for flatpak, not dnf. You can verify that with flatpak update.

As for discover wanting to restart to do their update, that’s a fedora thing for an extra level of safety while updating. You can read about it here.
