I was shocked about the amount of content when I browsed BBC’s Iplayer service. They even have films. If you want to save some well known movies and are in the UK, you could exhaust their selection before even having to put your hand in your pocket to splash out on extra privatised content.

Not seen this before, looks like Audacious on steroids. A bit like Photoshop vs MS Paint.

At this point he’s just pushing potential users away. I wonder if he’s given up on it and is just holding on to it until the election is completed.

Not so sure that will work. ESIMs are really convenient and cost effective for travelers and people who flit between countries. You can even load up an ESIM before leaving for a country. Your other option is to pay through the nose for roaming. Or arranging a pay as you go SIM in a country where you may not have a full grasp of the language.

Not gonna lie, if this were a real product, I’d be tempted. You see, for Android phones, ESIM registration uses propriety Google code. A programmable device that can present to the phone as a regular SIM would be a boon.

While you’re correct that laws are created by the legislature the judiciary is where they are judged to be just. At least in systems based on English common law. Look up jury nullification for more info. Also, prosecutorial discretion is a thing. Basically if any law isn’t enforced either through jury nullification and/or prosecutorial discretion then it is vestigial and should be amended or repealed.

Sweet! Although I do wish they could expand the access, at least give read-write access even if it is only for that session.

While it’s a bit off topic regarding the question, if you want a quick glimpse of what’s out there, try https://distrosea.com/

I don’t tend to rely as much on Valve’s compatibility rating as I do ProtonDB’s. Even though it takes extra steps.

As Mr. Miyagi would say:

“Walk On Road, Hmmm? Walk Left Side, Safe. Walk Right Side, Safe. Walk Middle, Sooner Or Later… Get Squish Just Like Grape!”

Or, how about Yoda:

"Do or do not. There is no try”

What I’m saying either Linux rules the roost or Windows does. The “roost” in this example is your hard drive.

Probably the safest, most cost effective approach is to use WSL.

I wonder how they measured this. Could it just be that they get more utilisation? Even per capita is probably not adequate either. You would need a measure that’s an analogue of per capita. Maybe per result? For instance I could spend half an hour attempting to get just the right set of keywords to bring up the right result, or I could spend 5 minutes in a chat session with an AI honing the correct response.

Is Talos Principle 2 any good? I got stuck on the latter puzzles in the Road To Gehenna expansion and didn’t want to progress in case TP2 needs knowledge of this expansion.

After watching Nerd Cubed play Coin Pusher Casino, I also got hooked. Bit of a guilty pleasure, that. But, three things to recommend it, though:

1. Realistic physics throughout make it quite a technically advanced game despite it probably all it took was a toggle in Unity.
2. There’s a native Linux port.
3. Other than the initial outlay for the game the only resource you’ll expend is your precious time alive. So, there’s no freemium model where you pay to advance. And no payment for additional unlockable content.

You play tables to get credits, to get perks that make it more pleasurable (not to mention possible) to play tables, to … The very essence of an RPG grind. And a bit of a skinner box.

I was on Mint over 10 years ago and noped out of it when an auto update borked my system. I can’t remember what it was, and maybe if it happened to me today, I could work my way through it. But, as it stood at the time, I remember feeling rolling was the way to go.

This is why I moved to Linux Mint. Then, when I got tired of having to reinstall the entire OS every time there’s a new version I moved again. Spare a thought for the poor saps who feel stuck with an OS from a single vendor. And sometimes even paying for the privilege. That being said fund open source. Freedom isn’t free.

Slightly OT but hasn’t Fedora gone all in on Wayland? Maybe it’s an attempt drive critical mass of adoption and concentrate developers’ minds to closing the gap between now and fully production ready. As such, maybe moving to Fedora will net you the best support and smoothest Wayland implantation.
