Around the time of KIA, the NRA getting money from Russia, the change in T_D from laughing at trump t9 being full maga, the changes to r/conspiracy, etc?
Yeah I think that was the specific influence of a certain former superpower that has spent a few years fighting a few days worth of war, but that’s my bit of conspiracy theory. Its just too coincidental (with too many known incidents) for me not to believe its all related.
Earlier than that actually, by another 10 years, in an event called the Portland Massacre by opponents of changes which dropped the elements of the Dallas Accord. That’d when the takeover occurred, though the takeover began about 10 years before that.
So its effectively been a total shit show for about 30 years by my estimates.
I’ve definitely trimmed some artists from my personal music library over their politics.
I still think that’s why Vance thinks Haitians are eating cats.
The US doesn’t want that either.
Be quiet, resident of “Further North Dakota”.
Honestly don’t remember the names, its been… Quite a while. I’ll have to open and check.
Iirc it was also some I stored as gifts that became unknown or something, and I wasn’t able to send them.
The bigger issue to me are games that were removed from steam and I can no longer get.
Which is why I don’t bother buying on steam anymore. If I’m buying, its DRM-free only.
Yup, xmpp is the way to be still IMO.
Yes but it wasn’t marketed that way. Which is why there is more interest.
Apple has been blatantly obvious that they want it to remain proprietary and exclusively on their hardware.
Because imessage is proprietary and apple is against it being publicly available and a standard.
Oh I’m not complaining. Its quick and simple to navigate. I don’t need flash, I need function.
I wouldn’t mind updates with that aspect kept in mind, but I’m not going to complain about it either. I think more websites could use debian.org as an example.
A core developer quit and forked it to make freenginx, based on a claim of corporate interference in security practices.
This was about 6 months ago and probably what you are thinking of. Its still open source, there doesn’t seem to be anything that’s come of the issue that was the cause of the split, and nginx is still actively developed.
it feels like when Debian had a website in 2015 that looked like 1997
As a Debian user… Its the same in 2024.
So… Just Robert Picardo then?
I’m not exactly the typical user here, but honestly Resolve is the best option on Linux. My caveat here is that I run Resolve on my stable box, which is a Debian box, and works beautifully.
codec support is the issue as a free version, but two things there - if you’re editing, mp4 is generally not what you want anyway, and you can just use ffmpeg (or any variety of tools that use ffmpeg underneath but give you a gui) if you’ve got a file you need that its the only container format.
If you’re doing it professionally, its $300, and worth buying. Much like buying Reaper for the whopping cost of $60 (personal)/$225 (commercial).
Regarding Wayland support, I think the first release addressing it was around March or April, and is fully supported in Resolve 19. I haven’t tested, because my Debian Stable box is not using Wayland, so I personally won’t test probably for a few months (or if I get an itch to try it on my 1700x Arch box).
GPU just needs OpenCL 1.2, so despite some previous snafus (needing nvidia) with GPU, AMD works just fine.
Windows? Mouse without borders
Linux/Mac/mix of that and windows? Barrier.
If, of course, you can install things on your work laptop.
Ok, so had to mention while looking at some game stuff to install… I remembered that I have a gog account, grabbed lutris, and boy is Quest for Glory 1 entertaining on this! QFG2-5 installed as well, unfortunately the touchscreen doesn’t work great in that mode. Solaar + a spare logitech mouse and off to play… Going to have to grab my steam controller when I get up. I think a stupid fun classic game/emulation station is what this is going to be! (At least until I decide to do something else)
Yeah, there have definitely been, we’ll call them “prominent posters” here who fit the bill.
