“Real” leather (A.K.A. someone else’s skin) is also usually coated in plastic and processed with extremely harmful chromium salts, so it’s usually not any better than the worst leather alternative.

I can’t tell if you moving the goal posts is a result of you missing the point or not, but I don’t care for your condescending attitude, so I’m not going to bother.

I’m sure companies will do the right thing when given additional tools to avoid doing so 🙂

I don’t disagree, but I’m also not focused on the GNU aspect of this. In many cases, non-GNU stuff, like MUSL is actually better (in my opinion). My issue is with non-copyleft licenses. I’ve written alternatives to various GNU utilities because I find some of their behavior to be undesirable, but I license them under the GPL because I think that the alternatives are a net negative on society.

And I think that Canonical, like any other profit-driven entity, will do anything to increase their profit, and when they think they can get away with something shitty and they believe it will make more money, they’ll do that. Pushover licenses give them the option to restrict things more than if they relied on copyleft tools.

This would be really exciting if Canonical weren’t using this in part because it helps them de-GPL their Linux distro.

Inb4 people say that it’s impossible to do anything shitty and if they did, people would just fork 😴 That isn’t how it works. Defaults matter and most people aren’t going to go out of their way to learn about this or replace their distro when they start locking it down.

Sorry, but that doesn’t really clarify. Sometimes, “drama” is justified. What was the conflict actually about? How do we know that the Morphe devs were actually on the right side of it?

What was wrong with how ReVanced was maintained? What are the differences in philosophy and governance with this project?

Anyone know if the APFS driver is packaged for Arch and Fedora? This would be invaluable on Asahi installs.

That is 100% COSMIC jank. He chose Pop!_OS again and System76 has been annoyingly shipping a beta desktop environment on their stable distro.

I like COSMIC and System76, but this is an annoying decision by them and Linus does shitty research so he doesn’t know he’s running beta software and he’ll associate this with Linux being janky again 🙄

CGO would like a word.

What are you talking about??? Helix doesn’t even need a plugin for the LSP to work. It just uses rust-analyzer. If anything, Helix has the least overhead of them all.

Yes, you can. It’s just an ARM64 computer. The only special consideration is that the kernel uses 16K pages instead of 4K pages, but that’s not something I’ve encountered problems with.

Yes, still run by a bigot.

Pretty much all COSMIC desktop apps have translation support built in (because most of them are built from templates that support them). I’m sure many of them could use your help.

120Hz display works!!! Woohoo!!!

There are now 0 hardware features that I miss with Asahi Linux 🥳

Big brain analysis right here. Libs really just want to keep repeating the past instead of actually fixing the problem.

lmao

The fact that people treat Rust like it’s very difficult is odd to me. I write Rust because C was too hard. Lol.

I tried to learn C, but once the learning materials got into double pointers and void pointers, I stopped being able to follow it. So I went back to Rust and after about a month of practice, I no longer struggle with the borrow checking rules (usually the hardest thing for people new to Rust) and it just keeps getting easier over time.

If you know C, you’re probably more than well prepared for Rust.

Three-finger drag is such a nice feature that I miss from macOS, but apparently nobody knows what it’s used for (according to the Phoronix comments)?

Three-finger drag allows you to drag anything that you would otherwise have to double-tap and hold to drag with your trackpad. It is not a gesture.

This libinput update allows you to have three-finger drag and three-finger swipe gestures, which is something the macOS implementation cannot do.

Binary logging is some of the most asinine shit I’ve ever had to deal with on Linux (and yes, I know you can change it, but it being the default behavior is beyond absurd).
