I remember playing Minecraft on Ubuntu 14.04, does that count?

KDE does fractional scaling really well, GNOME has big issues though.

[–] EpicVision@monero.town 1 points 7 months ago

Probably, since GNOME is a poorly written piece of shit

[–] EpicVision@monero.town 3 points 7 months ago

Sounds more like a GNOME problem

[–] EpicVision@monero.town 20 points 7 months ago

Actually, it's the desktop environment that doesn't know how to handle scaling. It's mostly a GNOME issue, I never had any issues on KDE.

Electron and Xwayland don't cause problems. GNOME is the only source of problems on Linux.

Do you use bash? If not, which one do you use? zsh, fish? Why do you do it?

Mostly fish, because it just feels much more modern than bash, it has good built-in autocomplete and I don't have to install millions of plugins like of zsh.

Do you write #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh? Do you write fish exclusive scripts?

#!/usr/bin/env bash Occasionally I also write fish scripts. Just replace sh with fish.

What should’ve people told you what to do/ use?

zoxide

general advice?

As @crispy_kilt@feddit.de already suggested, use shellcheck.

is it bad practice to create a handful of commands like podup and poddown that replace podman compose up -d and podman compose down or podlog as podman logs -f --tail 20 $1 or podenter for podman exec -it "$1" /bin/sh?

I don't think so

You don't need to worry about whether it's relockable, but it's important that it can be unlocked in the first place. Just don't get it from a carrier and you'll be fine. Buy the phone from some store like Best Buy.

To answer your second question: It uses USB-C.

The standard seems to be complete and utter garbage. It was garbage from the very beginning, which is why I never understood why people were getting so incredibly hyped up about RCS support.

Well yeah, it's not a proper long-term solution. But making a twitter account with a burner email from Guerrilla Mail is surprisingly easy, I guess that will be the only option going forward.

Basically every bank blocks Tor and many even block VPNs. Also, Tor Browser is not particularly secure. It's been designed for fingerprinting resistance and network anonymity through the Tor network. The Tor Browser is based on Firefox, which lacks many important security features like site isolation, Control Flow Integrity or any meaningful sandboxing. I absolutely hate Google and their monopolistic business practices, but Chromium is by far the most secure browser. Especially when it's running on a secure mobile operating system. GrapheneOS goes even further than Android and deploys a hardened memory allocator (which was actually ported from OpenBSD), which significantly reduces the risk for memory coruption. On the newest generation of mobile SOCs (ARMv9), GrapheneOS enables memory tagging by default. Again, find me a desktop platform with MTE. This once again proves my point that mobile devices are simply more secure. Every single piece of hardware and software in your phone has been built with a strong focus of security.

Or, better, use monero.

I absolutely agree on this one. Look at the Lemmy instance I'm on. I'm a big fan of Monero, but unfortunately there aren't many places that accept XMR.
