Have you clocked me as an anti-corporation guy or what? Can I not critique Canonical without needing to hate say Red Hat, Inc. and SUSE S.A. are equally bad?
I would like to hear about the corporate issues though.

Yeah, classic IMDb not correct genres. I've seen first season already and a few episodes of season 2. I thought season 1 was quite messy, most of the drama came from very bad and lacking communication, like they'd exchage 3 sentences to each other and then race off. Like herding kittens lol.

Second season is much better.I like how the "villains" have this information suck ability, it's like the opposite of bad communication. Interesting.

synnejysk eller sønderjysk (syd-jysk), er en dialekt fra det sydlige Jylland der kan være en smule svært at forstå for os der tale rigsdansk, men til gengæld kan folk fra områderne syd for grænsen, både Tyskland og Holland også godt forstå det en smule. Det er altid sjovt at se fællesnævnerne for sprog når det krydser grænser på den måde.

The story about Stallman showing up to his university and eating chocolate was quite funny. There's a few stories in the comment section as well.

I believe this is a chilling look into the future of Unity Technologies as a company and a product we develop on. Unity are threatening to revoke our access to continue development, and feel emboldened to do so casually and without evidence. Then when pressed for evidence, they have produced something that would be laughable - except that they somehow gathered various names that call into question how they gather and scrape data. This methodology is completely flawed, and then being applied dangerously - with short-timeframe threats to revoke all license access.

I do feel bad for game devs if they were taught how to use unity or were stuck in development around September 12, 2023, too far into development to simply pivot to godot when they had that licensing "restructure". But the amount of enshittification that would follow seemed quite obvious.

I'm a bit worried about the upcoming New Vegas season. Like many speculated due to the outro of season, it's possible they plan on retconning Obsidians version of Fallout, so depending on how they handle that, maybe it'll be nice to have a show stay on for that many seasons. Either way, looking forward to more Ella Purnell - what a star.

You can always go full hardcore Debian or Arch if you want to ditch the commercial drive completely?

I have a (weird) tendency to be skeptical of things that are as popular as Arch, so I've avoided it so far, and Debian are a bit too slow at keeping up to date package-wise, so I've been on Nobara for a few months now, but probably moving to openSUSE over the summer.

He added: “Retailers don’t tend to involve the police when they’re dealing with pensioners. Stores tend to want to handle it on their own.

“It’s not good publicity for a supermarket if it got out that a pensioner had been handed over to the police for shoplifting.”

Sounds like the numbers could be higher then, if it's not getting reported.

.But at least UK is free of the EU bureaucracy

That does sound like a huge advantage Ubuntu has over other distros, one I didn't consider. Makes sense people would stick around. Also they've proven that when they say LTS, they mean it.
I'm just not a fan of snap being proprietary, and them trying to get around GPL by rewriting core-utils etc.
That's what I meant with "shady".

I mean whenever you ask “give me a beginner Linux distro” you will most likely still hear Ubuntu.

Yeah, but isn't that just instinctual? It did use to be good, 10-15 years ago when it catapulted linux forward quite a bit in many peoples consciousness, I even dabbled with it back then.

Yeah, we're no longer living in the golden days of TV-shows, there sure are few quality shows and far between them.

I'm usually not a horror fan, but I do like me a good Aussie/Kiwi show, so I'll definitely give it a go.
