They control the president unless the president uses an official act to get rid of them
Oh yeah, they’re free to decide, I just disagree with them! I get the decision though, and if I were on charge of a large distro, I’d probably make the same choice (until plasma is on a normal release cycle)
Yeah, like I’m all in favor of having an opinionated design, but their dominance makes their bad decisions actively harm every other de. Stuff like refusing to compromise on cross-desktop protocols
Their whole attitude towards development is similar, down to not working with other dekstops and insisting on doing things the way that works best for them regardless if it’s worse for the linux ecosystem overall.
Nah, GNOME is worse mostly because it’s the default on a ton of distros, so them having this attitude actively get’s in the way of cross-desktop development instead of just being annoying.
Yeah, KDE’s basically at the point you don’t need GNOME imo, it’s so customizable you can make it basically look/function the same as GNOME without having to put up with GNOME’s dumber decisions
Wym, both took the correct action?
On the brink of death
They’re probably on windows
When you normally delete a file, it doesn’t actually delete it, to save time it just marks the space as free, so any new files can be written into that part of your drive.
But the actual data just remains there until a new file is written to the storage.
SecureErase does the second part without making an actual file.
Normal delete:
File: 01010101 -> no file:01010101
Secure erase:
File: 01010101 -> no file:00000000
Eh, even then it’s a gold mine of information on you if your PC ever gets a virus or stolen.
Encryption would help, but not for all scenarios.
Basically tells advertisers and trackers that you click on every single ad (a common metric used to gauge interest), so it’s harder for them to tell what you’re interested in and build a profile of you
4 isn’t long enough to support it :(
Nah, it’s been a famine since mid January or mid March depending on what source you use
Eh, it depends how you define Linux. Android uses a modified Linux kernel, but most of what’s above that is different. By the point you’re at the application layer they’re basically completely incompatible.
Is it technically Linux? Yeah but it’s so different from a user’s perspective it’s best to treat them as separate imo.
Yeah, starmer kicked him out for not being centrist enough, which is why he ran independent (and beat the labour candidate)
