Why do people use Ubuntu with snaps?

Honesty at this point I don't really care about Linux becoming mainstream. I mean call me elitist, but I feel like if it became a major desktop operating system a lot of the development would turn to making sure it's safe for IT illiterate people to use.

Part of why I love Linux so much is as someone who actually has a decent idea of what I'm doing I feel like the operating system leaves me alone to do what I want with my own computer.

Do you really think if everyone started using Linux you'd still be able to delete the boot loader or wipe your whole installation with one command.

Of course not! They would have to fit 10 million safety features and limit a ton of what the user can do just like Windows and MacOS.

So as much as I love Linux I think it's best being left as an advanced power users desktop operating system.

Basically people will call really visually pleasing things within a hobby porn. Like on some places online you can find food porn, which is simply really delicious looking food that's nicely presented( Yes it's kinda an edgy joke to call it porn).

But it's not made to be sexual and no one except maybe 0000000000.1% of people( I don't want to think about it) probably get turned on by it.

Anyway back to riceing DWM and st.

st. Fonts look great and I've even been able to add a vim mode for scrollback including selecting and copying text.

If I need something fast( usually on a new system) that's in most distros repos and automatically installs all it's dependencies( and doesn't have to many like gnome terminal and konsole) I tend to use sakura, though xfce terminal is also pretty good.

The tallos II has closed source firmware for the nvme storage controller, but it is the best option on the market right now if you can affort the upfront cost.

Could it be that the manjaro repos have older versions of the HIP runtimes then what blender 4.0 is built for? Just a thought. Either way I would report it to the blender devs so they can fix it if it's a bug

Was going to upvote then saw them install chrome. Just why? Use Firefox or Chromium

How does this affect wed development? As a lot of development techniques use cookies to create dynamic functions on a website. And will this also effect locality stored JSON data?

It was the first fully working kernel licenced under a FOSS licence. So it was the first time someone could run a 100% open source OS.

At least since maybe some really old mainframe back when stuff came with source code
