did they release a changelog?

Arch is almost always up to date with the latest stable releases of libraries and Qt making it an ideal base for KDE Plasma which is a fast moving desktop.

are you involved in this project? i have a little bit of a gripe with this approach. unless your idea is to aim this os at enthusiasts instead of the general public, the user should not have to worry about large upgrades that might leave the system in a broken state. this is why debian is always a little behind: making sure a bunch of different components in a million possible different combinations all work well together is hard work and it takes time. i’m not even saying it’s not possible to use a rolling release model and have a user friendly distro (opensuse tumbleweed does it pretty well), but reliability comes before software recency imo.

edit: btw this is why i said i’m unsure making an os is the job of application developers. what’s ideal for the developers might not be ideal for users.

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK208B [GeForce GT 710] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

pretty old gpu, but some cheapo graphics cards, especially in brazil, are still being sold brand new with gpus around the same age.

although this is cool, i’m a little on the fence, as i’m still not sure if it’s the job of application/desktop developers to create an os.

also, last i heard, nouveau doesn’t get commits for about a year now. support is pretty hit or miss. my graphics card is one of the best supported by nouveau and it works pretty well but it will freeze at least once a day, which is why i had to stick to the proprietary driver

i don’t get it

what’s the issue?

also, 50 years from now, your kids will ask you about zio israel the same way people today ask about nazi germany and you’ll lie in shame

bye bye

it’s not offtopic. you defended the current-day equivalent of nazi germany and got rightfully banned for it. deal with it

how about not defending a terrorist state? maybe you should ask what israel could do to end the violence since it was the one to start it, not hamas

enjoy your ban

ever heard of friends? i never claimed it was a generalized phenomenon

good response, but the last part feels a little circular reasoning

linux contributors live mostly in nato countries, so we have no choice but to push people from non-aligned countries away, which will prevent people from non-nato countries from joining, which will make most contributors be from nato countries

as someone said, people who were removed from the list can still contribute, i think, but this might lead to a situation where technology sovereignty will mean using your own regional linux fork

i did test ghostbsd earlier today, actually. i liked it, it felt pretty solid. also, from reading the docs, freebsd gave me the impression of being a very solid system as well

but again, the permissive licensing puts me off, and i don’t see what it offers over e.g. debian that makes up for it

lmao, it was just an honest question. people are too sensitive

brazilian linux fork when?

honestly, i’m not even sure i’d blame him. who knows what kind of pressure he’s getting behind closed doors

my understanding was that the kernel didn’t publicly state any specific reason, but “complying to sanctions” semms like a safe bet to me

in any case, whatever the reason, this removal is unfortunate and uncalled for

YUP

so… maybe nobody should be banned and it sucks that this happened?

there is simply no meaningful response to this

no matter whether you think russia is justified in invading ukraine or not, if russians get banned from the kernel bc russia invaded ukraine, yankees have to get the boot as well

the ubuntu machines at work are nearly unusable bc snaps don’t play well with our intranet setup and it just so happens that ubuntu thought it would be a brilliant idea to make firefox, the default browser, a snap

slack is also a snap so the support team had to install it by hand so that we don’t get locked out of work meetings while at the office

this sucks so much bc ubuntu is basically the first distro that comes to mind when ppl think “linux”, so it shouldn’t make us deal with this kind of bullshit. i wish they went back to the days where ubuntu was just a boring repackaged debian

good luck outpacing the flagship instance
