I only see reddit content filtered through the occasional Kagi summery. Fuck Reddit.

Don’t forget that you can block sites on Kagi.

Lately my 70yo mother has been sending me links from there instead of Facebook,

lol so nowadays it’s “everyone’s parents is on reddit”, like back in 2015 when nobody was on Facebook but everyone’s parents was.

The headline does not contain any clickbait-typical elements, for instance

• Most of The Words Capitalized
• A question mark at the end
• "You won’t believe’
• etc.

cloud saves

I never needed that since Steam introduced them 15 years ago (or more). It is just annoyed having to wait for that.

gametime tracking

Why would you need that? But lutris does this.

some achievements (dont care about those)

Yeah me neither.

of course you can easily backup your Games

You can easily backup your GoG games by just downloading the zip file.

built in support for gog, epic games

Lutris also has that.

Maybe it is just a matter of taste. Personally I would never use any launcher to launch my gog games, because I think the whole advantage of gog is to have the game in a convenient zip file.

Why would I use heroic over lutris?

It is the ~/.local/share/containers folder.

I am on Debian 13, but the storage might be the issue.

extreme misconfiguration

I did not configure anything, I just installed it from the debian repository.

a bit faster and lighter on resources.

Can’t confirm. I have two VMs with an identical image (about 200 MB).

Docker: Pulling the image takes about 10 seconds and needs about 200 MB diskspace.

Podman: Pulling the image takes about 15 minutes and needs about 110 GB diskspace.

Docker: Commands like “docker ps”, “docker stop” etc. run in a few seconds.

Podman: Commands like “podman ps”, “podman stop” etc. take at least one minute.

They and them can both be used in the singular.

Yeah I get that.

And it doesn’t need to refer to a non-binary person.

Is it correct to switch pronouns every other time when referring to a non-binary person? Serious question.

but if someone installs arch then complains that it broke because they didnt check the news (something that the maintainers recommend you do) then the blame/fault shifts to the user, not the system.

The question is though why pacman does not display these news during the update. Gentoo has been doing this for decades.

they just said

He even tied me up

them ontop of me

He got really worried

I am next level confused, why are you alternating pronouns? Or are these multiple people?

Indeed I am always disguested when someone says “send a mail”.

Maybe this is more common when English is not your native language; e.g. in Germany, “mail” is “Brief”, and “email” is just “E-Mail” or more short “mail”, because no one says “elektronischer Brief”.

Interesting to see his take on “e-mail” vs “email”.

So that might just be the origin of this language butchering you observed; as “email” means something different in various languages, lots of people who don’t speak English as their first language might have chosen to use “mail” for electronic mail. That is just speculation of course.

That is how I made my fried rice for over 5 years, because there was a smoke detector right above the stove.

I mean it can taste pretty good if you know what you are doing.

I don’t know where you are living, but in my place there are local “tech collectives” which are non-profit organizations that provide folks with an email address. Of course way too many people are still using gmail, but the alternative is there.

I think what’s worse is that you are basically forced to have one of those corporations email account for a smartphone, and nowadays you are basically forced to have a smartphone to participate in society.

I have been done with email for nearly a decade now, mostly. So, to answer your question, I use fax and snail mail. Not joking. I feel liberated and don’t give a shit about postage or inconvenience. There is still that exceptional 5% or so who I will exchange email with, which does not have GAFAM in the loop.

I respect that. Reminds me of Donald Knuth, who stopped using email in 1990: " I have been a happy man ever since January 1, 1990, when I no longer had an email address"

https://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/email.html

when email is effectively controlled by major tech companies,

That is not the case. We both can setup a mail server and email each other without any issues.

What alternative do you propose that is not based on some proprietary solution?

That “article” is obviously AI generated; that whole page should be blocked from this community.

You should read the original article, or even his mail on LKML, because that is not what he is saying. He is not endorsing AI in any way; instead, he is concerned that the latest linux release candidate has so much changes, because everyone and their mother is using some AI tool to create and send “little small” fixes; obviously he has no control over how volunteers work.

Furthermore, he stated that the security mailing list has become unusable due to the influx of AI generated entries.
