that's the beauty of distros, those that want traditional package structure can still use a distro that does.

Even the current flatpak first distros like OSTree spins of Fedora (Silverblue, Kinoite et al) provide mutable containers for using any package format you like.

The flatpak size disadvantage is negligible in the age of terabytes

the issue is overstated as most flatpaks use the flatpak platform runtimes and share their own libraries in a similar manner to the host, yes its separate libraries, but its not dozens of disparate copies like some detractors of flatpak seem to state

whatever the new architecture ends up being, at some point we will see x86 relegated to a daughter board in the machine while we transition, or x86 will live in a datacenter and you'll buy time on a "cloud pc" like what microsoft will already sell you in azure

pretty much a 3rd of my steam library...

If I had to pick one, maybe Kerbal Space Program

Sorry I didn't see a notification for this.

It's a different work flow installing software. Flatpak first mentality, then install stuff in a Toolbox container, if that doesn't work layer the rpm.

Being able to rebase has been helpful, I've based forward to rawhide a few times to try new packages and then rebase back to stable.

You lose things like being able to use packages out of copr, but used to only really use that to test new versions of KDE. However the devs created a branch for KDE testing anyway, so nothing lost.

Happy to answer any specific questions you might have

Microsoft is a cloud provider these days, Windows doesn't make enough money, that's why they are desperate to monetise already paying customers.

Azure/entra or whatever the fuck they call it this week is where the real money comes from

AGIMUS's drones were reminiscent of the drones from Arsenal of Freedom

Don't know if this counts - used Fedora KDE for about a decade and then last year moved to Fedora Kinoite. It's essentially the same, but is OSTree based and immutable. I like the solid base, the rebasing function and containers

the meme blames paramount+ for cancelling a show they didn't commission and in a large portion of regions was never on streaming

that Nickelodeon were the original commissioners of the production, made out of their budget and their terrestrial broadcast rights.

they were also home of all the movies at one point and that changes every few months, and by region. Accountants going to Accountant

CBS Studios produces most of them and then Paramount+ holds the distribution rights in most cases
