Everyone is saying Bazzite this and Cachy that. But no one's saying Arch this, and Fedora that.

Cry "Bah, humbug" all you will but I am going to continue to Unfollow accounts posting AI images through to Christmas and into the new year. I am sorry but I really would like to minimise seeing them.

Does this mean there's a Genesis version of "Unused Song 2" by Dean Evans? 😯

I don't want a comprehensive and detailed end for Digital Circus, I just want something that feels satisfying.

In other words, I hope Gooseworx pulls an Eva instead of a J.J Abrams.

We've never seen more attacks on digital rights than right now.
We've also never had more people paying attention.
That's not a coincidence. Keep pushing.

Thanks to the internet now I see all this kind of graphics as Saddam Hussein.
Very proud to announce that we've finally pushed past the petabyte barrier and delivered over 1 petabyte of Bazzite ISOs in just the last 30 days.

Thank you to everyone that helped make this possible! None of us would be here without you.

Google creating a global centralized registration system for new Android apps is a bad idea for users, for developers, and competition. Google should nip it in the bud now. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Apple and Google use their app stores to shape what apps you can and cannot have on devices, but now more governments—including the U.S. government—are using legal and extralegal tools to lean on

What worries me is that after they normalize this behavior they're going to go after people who circumvent it.

They're going to criminalize using other OSes like Linux that don't have surveillance.

The moment to push back at this is now.
If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on

Are you looking for a way to output video & audio from your device with HDMI to your CRT with component inputs? (a.k.a ypbpr) This is the adapter you should buy.

The ones on AliExpress don't output 480i, only 480p and higher.
I recently released a video showcasing cheap 480i HDMI #downscalers for CRT's and said I couldn't find one that outputted YPbPr. Well, I was wrong! Here's a short video showcasing a decent, low lag one!: youtu.be/BUgTIOqetYU

I updated my LG TV that runs on WebOS and Microsoft Copilot invited itself.

You can't uninstall it.

I always close the nagging banners when there's a Wikipedia fundraiser going.

But every time this idiot opens his mouth to trash it I feel compelled to donate instantly.
