Because it's easier to use the version that's in the distro, and why do I need an extra set of libraries filling up my disk.

I see flatpack as a last resort, where I trade disk space for convenience, because you end up with a whole OS worth of flatpack dependencies (10+ GB) on your disk after a few upgrade cycles.

If I can choose between flatpack and distro package, distro wins hands down.

If the choice then is flatpack vs compile your own, I think I'll generally compile it, but it depends on the circumstances.

I think it's easier to fill a little extra after having turned on the engine.

It's a new coding paradigm, I will take some time getting used to looking for libraries in the uyghur/tianamen folder.

They can use the same name but if the owner signs their commits we can at least spot the fake commits.

And even if they clone all repos they don't clone the build systems, so their builds of apps and windows installers will be signed with different keys.

For people who follow guides to clone something from a repo, compile it and install it, they need to be on their guard if the repo URL is not the official one.

Finally a debate worth watching, or at least the super cut off all the mistakes.

I hope it's patented so we can just avoid Logitech.

Definitely an upgrade, it softens the metal brick look.

Install WordPerfect 5.1 on the Pocket386 for a more retro feel.

We can hope that the missing 45B will be critical for tesla to keep its market share, and then we end up getting good EV's
