I remember having to install a hack for that it was so ridiculous.

I’d love to live and work somewhere where I could bike. The distance to my current job would be doable for me but there is zero bike infrastructure to make it feasible.

My 6yo gets a ton of ads for insurance, about the same amount as for toys. It’s weird.

They show those 3 minute ads because they get paid a lot for them. My favorite are the 30 minute documentary ads.

I don’t know what you mean, I’m blocking all of them.

Yes, this will just mean that game publishers will set one price for the whole EU which will be based on the income in the richest countries. They can still geoblock countries outside of the EU, just not within it.

You will find it very difficult to get help with game piracy on linux just because the community is very small. If the game has a native release it will be even harder since most linux users want to support developers that do native releases. I’ve only ever tried a couple games that I had no problems with and that was a few years ago. These days if it has a native release I will always just buy it.

Same. On my account and when logged out the first result is about Kenya. This is happening because of personalized search.

On android the app used to beg you to make it the default SMS app all the time, so lots of people probably use it without really trying to.

What something would that be?

EndeavourOS is basically Arch with a nice installer and a few extra QoL packages while Manjaro manages their own repositories and adds things like mhwd that change system management to be a little different than Arch.

I much prefer Endeavour since I already do everything from the command line anyway. Also, while most info about Arch applies to Manjaro it doesn’t always and I found that very annoying when trying to troubleshoot.

I’ve also installed Arch a few times and it went fine, but the Endeavour installer is a much nicer experience.

In the US I’ve never met anyone that uses WhatsApp. I think this is because texting was free for everyone here for a long time before it came out, so there was no real reason to move to a messaging app over what was already built in and free.

The vast majority of nvidia system breakage complaints I see seem to come from users of Ubuntu or it’s derivatives. I’ve been on arch based distros for 6 years now and every pc or laptop I’ve owned in that time has been nvidia and I have never had any problems.

It will just make up 3rd party libraries. This seems to happen more often the less common the programming language is, like it will make up a library in that language that has the same name as actual library in Python.

My work better provide me a phone if they want me to use it for work.

If you have a screen protector you have to turn on screen protector mode to get the fingerprint sensor to work at any sort of acceptable level. Even then it is not nearly as good as without a screen protector.

Creating a GUI for changing a few lines of text in a file feels like a lot of extra work for no benefit for most developers.

On a large phone (so almost all of them) gesturing is much easier than reaching for a button. When I first switched it was slightly awkward because of muscle memory, but after a while gestures felt much better.

They will sell access to that 18 years of content. They don’t want it able to be scraped in any way.

Top result on Google is newpipe.net for me. Perhaps NewPipe has already submitted a counter notice and it has been restored? That’s how the DMCA is supposed to work.
