Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was quoted by The New York Times as saying “our presidential election is not really democracy, it is costly bureaucracy. Mr. Putin will be re-elected next year with more than 90 percent of the vote.”

Remember that MS removed office from chromebook’s play store, you can imagine why, they are pretty scared now. Apart from office I see the Cad industry offered briscad to Linux , the video editing industry offered davince and lightworks, the 3d modeling one has blender which is just industry-grade per se, I guess office and adobe are the only grandparents reluctant to switch to the new world.
Well, the platform is nice and building a 3d game is straightforward but actually I see most kids just playing shitty games in the end. Better go sketch, construct 3 or others

I didn’t get you. Tablets allow only to split screen (except for some launchers that allow a kind of tiling with multiple apps) while Chromebooks allow standard windows like any X/wayland DE, plus they allow tiling similar to tablets.
The only app I can’t live without. Except for gboard, all of my applications are Foss. There is no competition for gboard’s swipe typing, not to mention its many capabilities like as searching for gifs, stickers, being able to paste copied images, translating, and so on. I’d like to know how I can use gboard while...
I got a samsung j3 2016 which can’t connect to LTE. I read that this phone can’t connect anymore to 4g (only 2g) after the provider (TIM from Italy) removed 3g antennas. It’s like the phone is not in the provider whitelist (first time I hear about it). Is it legal? Is it possible to bypass the block without going root or...
I have to test but I bet with other operators it would stay 4g until you receive or do a phone call. That’s how it works a 4g huawei I got. It takes some time to switch between 4g and 2g but it works

When Meta launched their new Twitter competitor Threads on July 5, they said that it would be compatible with the ActivityPub protocol, Mastodon, and all the other decentralized social networks in the fediverse "soon"....
Like “standard phone calls have always been interoperable” ?
Like “batteries should be replaceable” ?
Or “documents file formats should be open” ?
ActivityPub should probably become a login standard, somehow as standard as SAML. Any social network should propose to login with AP, just like any social let you use email or phone number to register.
Basically, I have a laptop (5800H/RTX3050) and Windows is irritating me to no end. I am thinking of completely formatting it and replacing it with whatever distro can give me the best gaming compatibility. For reference, I play - CS:GO, DoTA, Asphalt, and a little bit of Overwatch....
Tumblr said that too but never did it actually. It’s not so easy to join a network where the skills of any single “kid” could be compared to your 1000+ employees company.
PCs are getting common devices in all houses: you start cracking software, then you buy a couple of them, in the end you look for opensource versions. That’s how it often goes. The same applies to operating systems

Libreddit (and sometimes teddit) are essential to me now to watch reddit content without getting into reddit. But I wonder if they will keep working, mostly since Stealth on android won’t keep working after.
This is not a strictly commercial network. Do we really need useless comments or posts just to increase some stats numbers? I’d think about quality contents instead.

We already have tutorials to create apps using a gpt-like ai, it’s not a all just garbage. I wonder if wine could match a real windows OS thanks to gpt in the future. Does it already knows the differences between the two?
