Ladux? Linda? +Linux, pronounced “Add a Linux” -> Ada Linux? LinLace?

If you want to edit macros in Excel, you’ll see a Vista window. Vista! In 2024!

Gun! Unix? Not!

Are the version numbers going to be mm or caliber?

GNU isn’t punchy though; as soon as any punchy word get’s associated with them, people will use that word instead, and we’ll just get GNU/Thermite or GNU/Abson or something.

See that’s more realistic. Sneaking off to walmart is still a bit of a stretch in sprawl-hell, but I can see how a cheap locally available phone might make it’s way into anyone’s hands, especially as a hand-me-down.

And buying that requires knowledge of amazon, knowledge of what phone is useful, knowledge to avoid a scam or faulty product, an email address, a credit card, and a device to order from.

Children are surprisingly clever and have all the time in the world, but they aren’t professional pen-testers and don’t have the experience needed to use online services before having access to them.

It’s far more likely they get a hand-me-down device from a friend and keep it at school, especially if they know such a thing would be confiscated immediately upon discovery. Preventing this interaction would require control over the child’s life nearing Amish levels, or prison levels.

Wait until you need nested commas, those lists won’t delineate themselves!

Yeah, repeat ads are the worst. One of the best targeting thing that could be done is simply prevent seeing the same ad more than once in a 24h period. It would do so much to make the hellscape a little more bearable.

Dislikes is why I left anyway! XD

I even left ads on for nearly a year until a particularly metally hazardous on pushed me to turn them off, and I haven’t gone back since. On the occasion I use YT outside my ecosystem, it suddenly feels so much worse.

Ugh, I just had to get an organization outlook and they’ve been screwing with backend server protocol support, which kills most third-party apps. For E-MAIL! Nothing about this need a new standard!

Ooo, nice fork.

Too bad it doesn’t fix the 17 other context options though. If I’m getting software specifically to circumvent W11, that means I can modify my installation. There’s so much more I’d do than a 7zip fork.

Sadly, most of my windows useage is going to be fleet machines, so even NanaZip is beyond my reach. W11 is still worse than W10.

Ugh, outlook has been dropping support for email standards for a while now, it’s getting close to a proprietary standard now.

The best sandbox is made of bare metal.

I need to click twice to get to the 7zip options.

It’s a waste of resources

That’s basically the whole OS at this point, no?

Google runs AdSense, they’re exactly one of the advertising companies I’m talking about. I agree that they’re in a great position to enforce regulations on ads and build trust, but why do that when you can just eliminate all the alternatives?

Ad moderation won’t happen until there’s a unified group which can moderate ads and can’t gain from being more permissive. Basically, advertisers need to unionize against their own common interest to increase the quantity of ads.

This has kind of happened already in the form of sponsorships, where each ad is vetted and can be rejected on a case-by-case basis. Each presenter is acting alone in this case however, letting bad sponsors slip through. Bad sponsors are often slammed on in feedback though.

Perhapse if advertisers could remove their heads from their posteriors for a moment they might see that neutrally read ads with no music would drive far fewer people to block them, but this could only work if all ads on a platform were limited in this way, and such regulations could be reliable and specific enough to make blocking more hassle than it’s worth.

I’m having difficulty imagining a blocker driven agreement though, as any level of leeway for ads would all but require compensation, and that’s 99% of the way to corruption already.

However, this all could only work if for-profic companies could be convinced to not seek every possible profit at every point immediately, which is unlikely.

Now I want to see a flip phablet with a footlong screen.

To be fair here, appdata is technically a hidden folder and there are lots of reasons an app would want it’s data accessable by the user.

Pulseaudio can remap channels directly, so you can take a 7.1 input and output two entire stereo outputs to a 7.1 speaker system, which would solve my issue and then some. Making a custom profile is a tad more involved than clicking buttons, but CLI isn’t needed at all.

I found a solution in under a minute that should work on most modern Linux DEs. I suppose it’s not by an official Linux support channel, but AskUbuntu was literally the first search result.

Ah, support as in “this program is supported”. I can definitely agree with that
