Carbonara is delicious and its definitely not a recent invention

Lmao, I don’t know how my brain didn’t make that connection

I wanna give him a hug

This is a neat find, thanks for posting!

I’m gonna second the reccomendation to just boot it from a flash drive and try it out. Virtualization takes a ton of performance and on lots of hardware isn’t going to be a nice experience compared to actually running it without virtualization

You don’t have to make the switch, but it’ll give you a much better sense of what you might like, without dealing with lag and input delay :)

What happened with raspberry pi?

For one of my friends its just cause she has a shitload going on and enough problems to deal with without trying to figure out a new way for her computer to work and whatnot

Plus I think art stuff she uses doesn’t support linux and she found krita unsuitable for how she likes to work

As more of an art and design person than a technical one, yeah almost undoubtedly, though I can’t think of specific examples

But I really appreciate the work that goes into a beautiful logo, typography, or UI, and that will often sway me, probably more than it should

Void’s beautiful logo/logotype is what originally got me interested in it as a distro, and the only reason I’m not using it now is cause I’m a dummy and minimal distros require I use my brain a lot more than I’ve thus far been willing to get my computer up and going

This looks fantastic! will it possible to use purely locally as just an android app in the future?

I think for a lot of folks it might be nice to have the option to just eschew self hosting for synchronization and just use local storage, and then have a route to expanding and adding muti device ability should they go set up a server ☺️

Thats a shame to hear. Is jitsi better?

Ahh, thank you for correcting me, I appreciate it

Have a good one!

Its frankly fucking comedic. Someone seriously thought that was a good way for it to communicate that its turned on 😂

I mean, it’s apt. But companies are usually better at pretending they’re not up to anything nefarious 😅

Wait, he did? I had no idea

Is that what “fulu” has been about?

I wish my comment included that context for all the people who saw it but I was completely unaware

EDIT: Apparently louis left futo some number of months ago, thank you to another user for letting me know in a reply below

This is informative, and unfortunate.

I will be honest, I don’t really expect louis will wade into this issue at all, since he seems to be very uncomfortable with any of the “political” or partisan aspects of the issues he covers.

I can empathize with why one might be that way, but I hope I’m wrong, it would be rather disappointing.

Maybe it’s time for me to open some feature requests on the helicopter repo for futo keyboard features I’d really miss if I left it behind… It’d be good for both projects to be feature rich and competitive anyway

If you’re picking a distro for someone else I would not recommend a small project distro or something incredibly niche 😅

Any of the big projects should be decent. Fedora, maybe fedora silverblue or whatever their imutable variant is called, opensuse, Mint, Ubuntu, debian. (Personally I don’t like some of the choices Ubuntu makes but it may still be a very good option for less technical folks)

Others can tell you which of those have the best security defaults, but to be honest it doesn’t sound like you actually have particularly exceptional security needs relative to what any distro will provide. I’d prioritize something stable and user friendly- which, again, your best bet is NOT picking a niche small project or something most people have never heard of

Forgejo is an activitypub-enabled Git forge software, and codeberg is one of the largest forgejo instances.

Thank you for this explainer, that’s cool as fuck!

OSM is just pronounced open street map or as an acronym- O.S.M.

The tilde isn’t from OSM, it’s from OsmAnd (the navigation app), and I thing it’s used to communicate whether you’re running the version from f-droid, or the play store version? I agree that’s confusing and makes for an awkward name though

Just to clarify, OSM is the acronym for Open Street Map, which is just the map/database

OsmAND, comaps, and organicmaps are all apps/clients that use OSM as their source of map data, and add gps navigation functionality

Comaps was forked recently cause there were some issues with organic maps being run in kind of a crummy way that wasn’t in line with the community, if I understand right. But I’m sure someone more knowledgeable could elaborate better

I dunno if this clarification was needed or helpful but I figured I’d add it in case it’s of help :)

I like the organic maps UI, and I have liked the OsmAND functionality, but I’m still working on transitioning away from google maps so I have limited perspective. I do know there’s an app that wraps the google maps website so you can use it without google servicesor whatever and potentially less risk of tracking, and that may be of use depending on your needs!

Edit: why are y’all downvoting them for being out of the loop?? Lemmy get your shit together

They don’t- a moderator to an online ubuntu forum community (that recently became official) misapplied a rule about keeping things apolitical as meaning someone shouldn’t describe themselves as queer.

Ubuntu has made a statement correcting the interpretation made by the moderator

I turned off internet connectivity for Nova and the Nova launcher prime with tracker control, I figure that may help.
