It seems our #AdventReadings are met with a LOT of interest! 🤣

Can't believe it, but we got ANOTHER (!) letter. This time from Facebook's law firm @MHCLawyers - usually masterminded by this fella ⏬who loves talking about "sophisticated" measures to keep you data secure. (1) twitter.com/MHCLawyers/status/

@freakazoid

one thing I realized, through the years, is that, given some level of cpu and ram capability, the size of the monitor is more important than the size of the ram or of the cpu

Phones don't cut it, for me

You can consume through phones but you can hardly create

Love how Microsoft has spent the last 10 years reimplementing all their enterprise infrastructure software with The Web and The Cloud to achieve approximately the same features with dramatically worse performance and user experience.

@gamer my parents run linux just fine. it just works for them.

this preconception you have that linux requires tinking & fixing & debugging: it's your conception. it's one widely held, and this conception is, more than Linux, what holds linux back from adoption. there is a poisonous mindset about what linux is & how it works.

linux does need to make gains too. but it's hard to figure out how to help, when it's shallow & narrow preconceptions that try to steer the conversation.

I’ve been making veiled comments about a situation in the Linux desktop community for a while, and I think it’s finally time to lift the curtain: https://blogs.gnome.org/christopherdavis/2021/11/10/system76-how-not-to-collaborate/

System76 has not been kind downstream, and they’ve made a habit of talking poorly about their upstream projects and then using that as a jumping point to market their own projects.

DanielTux boosted

I think in the end, history has shown upstreams to be in the right more often than not, and that egocentric model of former employers to be a detriment.

But honestly, I just wish people would freaking work together on solving issues instead of starting spats on social media.
