안녕하세요!

MacOS pisses me off endlessly with a popup that forces you to update (and you have to close your apps to update). Linux was better in that it never asks me to update, but if I ever ran an update I would have to close my browser before opening a new tab. This though… This is amazing!!
Hail the victorious devs!
But it will make me pay for VPNs!
In a post focused on Windows 10’s upcoming end-of-support date (October 14), Microsoft EVP Yusuf Mehdi boasts that Windows is the most widely used operating system in the world today, with over one billion monthly active devices globally.
However, it’s been noted that in its 2022 annual report, Microsoft said 1.4 billion devices were running Windows 10 or Windows 11, up from 1.3 billion devices a year earlier.
I think it’s significantly more likely that the number is still around 1.4 billion

Chinas exports might not be huge for China, but they’re huge for the rest of the world
And despite building all our shit, they still actually pollute less CO2 per capita: https://www.worldometers.info/co2-emissions/co2-emissions-per-capita/
From what I understand, xorg has fundamental security flaws. How will they remedy this?
They won’t. Don’t download random shit and if you’re worried, run it in Flatpak
What happens when the Linux kernel drops support for xorg? Do they intend to fork an older version of the kernel in order to keep support?
Not really possible, since X11 is only built on top of the kernel’s graphical interface (same as Wayland). Even if that wasn’t the case, the kernel doesn’t delete any code that anybody uses (that’s why 30 year old programs still run)
The first comment on the request
For the sake of all of our sanity, I’d really appreciate if FESCo could decide on this one really quickly (e.g. putting out a statement) and avoid what could be a most unpleasant flame-fest on this mailing list.
It’s a half-assed project for some high level designer at Google to claim impact.
I wish the UI were actually, meaningfully customizable, but alas…
I don’t want to be like China though /s
Am I the only one who thinks police should be held to a higher standard of accountabilities?
Weird goalpost but Ok
I’m old enough to remember when this was about NK
uBlock Lite is simply not as potent, so it’s understandable it can be beaten. Almost like Google is abusing their monopoly
It depends where you are and what you’re renewing. Lots of these things (photos/fingerprints/etc) may be optional. Research beforehand, talk with the staff, express your concerns, be polite, and see which parts you can opt out.
There’s some A/B testing going on, for sure. My ublock origin on Firefox has never had issues
You weren’t blocking ads before?
Is this true in Europe? It seems like you can make phone calls and text with Linux phones over there
