Who gives a shit. Use the desktop you like. Don't post this /g/ tier bait.

I'm using Gnome and VRR on Wayland with no issues. AMD 7800XT.

China didn't "conquer" anything. They had an agreement that would keep them independent until a certain date and that date passed. So HK now belongs to China, as was agreed.

I was a little misinformed, it turns out HK has belonged to China since 1997, and the recent protests were just because of some policy changes that make China's influence stronger in regards to their ability to extradite people into mainland China.

~~Hong Kong only recently became part of China.~~ (This was not correct, it became part of China in 1997). I'm sure the protests are fresh in people's minds still. If anywhere would want private phones it would be HK.

You don't need to write more code. It's just that code compiles to more explicit/numerous machine instructions. A difference in architecture is only really relevant if you're writing assembly or something like it.

It's not really her fault. Microsoft pushes people to use their onedrive and pay for a subscription even when people have no clue what it is or what it does. Microsoft is just insanely anti-consumer.

I have never practiced using the terminal. The only way I learned was using the terminal to do my tasks and fix things when they broke.

In the future, I hope to have a home lab/NAS running Linux

Just start this project. That will teach you about how to use the terminal in a practical setting

Sounds like extremely veiled speak for "we are going to test things out on random users to see how much bullshit they can accept"

This is unironically a good move for them. As Office gets more and more interconnected you have to wonder if there's a danger of using sensitive data as training for their AI. Not only will it save them money it'll also keep their data secure.

What a goofy interpretation of that series of events. Reddit changes API which fucks over moderators -> mods protest and say if they can't use these tools they can't moderate -> when API restrictions come into effect, mods either leave over moderating being way harder now or basically not being able to mod

Why is that final step so hard for this person to believe? All of Reddit moderation wasn't lying to people for fun

Default? Top left. It should be visually appealing to most people, and it would honestly just be odd to have the default wallpaper be cartoon styled. And the bottom left looks too much like W11. But I think they should all be included as options.
