I think with flatpak it’s fine nowadays. So I have the stable base Debian, but most applications are flatpak and for dev work I use containers or nix anyways.

Debian has proprietary software via opt-in through the non-free repository. However the Nvidia driver is horribly outdated so I had to install them directly. But now it works decently well. But my 1070TI is on borrowed time now no matter the OS 🥲

0·17 days agoIf you want to say “Free Palestine”, you could say “Free Palestine”. “From the river to the sea” is also used by Israel and I bet I don’t have to convince you as hard that they aren’t talking about peaceful co-existance.

0·18 days agoIf your slogan implies genocide, as your example also does, yes it is hate speech. You cannot undo colonization by disposing the occupiers. Any nation is occupying some native land in one form or another.

47·27 days agoEh not really. Those are not some minimal wage employees that have no choice but to work for them. They are highly skilled and sought-after employees. Should companies be forced to employ people even when they do not need them? Sounds pretty silly to me. Instead just give everyone basic universal income and let them do something they choose.

411·27 days agoI get your sentiment and I don’t really like Bending Spoons either. But the reality is that they buy somewhat failing business that have absurd costs that they cannot offset with their revenue. Most tech companies are way too large for the things they do. That’s how Bending Spoons succeed; because they can get the same or more revenue with a fraction of the man power.

27·27 days agoThey don’t really “coast” on the income. They have the engineering and desire to run their investments very long term. Of course they still fire almost everyone, so if you even get a hint of them trying to acquire your company you should start looking elsewhere…

No. What is actually happening is that tech companies try to hype up their mathy maths autocomplete by saying it will totally be a skynet situation soon. Because the tech is soooo good bro! Trust me bro! One more trillion and it’s conscious bro.
And the guy from Mistral is calling it out as the dumb bullshit it is, the dangers are much more mundane but immediate.
