More things used to be free on internet 10-20 years ago.

Also the rich used to be less rich, and the poor less poor.

So clearly paying overpriced services for everything is not making anything better.

I really wish we had a service like this on Europe.

I know they ship to Europe. But shipping costs are prohibitive for small buys.

“We have the technology to revive him.”

The laughing comes when you are so used to vim that you begin using :q in other programs and wonder why doesn’t it exit.

I’m Spanish. And really, that judge is just in the pocket of the spanish media corporations. Telegram is used by 8 million spanish users daily for lots of different things.

Recently the UE forced WhatsApp to open a protocol so it can be compatible precisely with Telegram to avoid a monopoly.

If telegram elevates to the european court due to abuse of the spanish authorities they should win.

Everytime I want a distro that just works I just roll with Linux Mint.

Being one of the most popular distro if something goes wrong is really easy to find how to fix it .

I had the amazing luck of being introduced to linux at such a young age that i don’t remember the distro. I just remember the penguin.

But the first time I try linux for myself it was mint, of course.

I’ve usually run linux until I got sick of having problems with it and then install windows… until I got sick of having problems with it and then switch to linux again.

There is no OS without issues. In my experience, that may not be the same as others, linux problems tend to be more frequent, smaller and easier to fix. While windows problems tend to be less frequent but more problematic and harder to fix (I’m looking at you windows update which destroyed all my OS).

But if you are going to use linux you are going to need to tweak some things. The tinkering to make it all work is easy as the community forums have all the answers (btw windows support forums are the WORST, 99% of proposed solutions are useless).

For the sake of lemmy civility and prosperity I just didn’t want to start an argument.

Let’s just say I did read the whole article before posting and shouldn’t be assumed otherwise unless there was something incorrect being said, which was imposible due the nature of the comment itself.

I’m really hoping for that AI embedded sound control bar.

Debian.

Stable, well documented, easy to install. I do not need anything else right now.

I use Spanish QWERTY layout and it’s… weird for coding.

I’m used to it from my whole life so that’s what I use but sometimes brackets or special symbols are weird.

I’ve always wanted to change to use US-International layout. So I can keep ñ and áéíóú, and also have easy access to coding symbols. But I have never got around it.

Anyhow I still think that whoever designed ISO layouts messed up. We should use US international layout. That’s my two cents.

I know some schools in my country use their own linux distribution on pair with windows. And my organization has also their own linux distribution but it is barely used really. I dont know anyone who uses it, but I do know it exists.

I tend to buy stuff I’ve already pirated.

I have games bought with 0 hours played because I already played them with my pirate hat.

When you are a pirate you have a different mindset. You get to really choose who do you want to give your money to, and you tend to chose people who really deserve it.

Sometimes they are more convenient, than cd ls mv cp everything, when you don’t have access to a file explorer.

Specially if you are working with a server via ssh, or some machine without any Desktop Environment installed.

I think youtube ads are served by the same dns as the content, so pi hole shouldn’t block youtube ads at all.

They probably are just asking for a loan right now and need to justify that they are going to increase profits.

I basically use it to ssh to my server.
