The company’s website is currently collecting email signups for early-bird pricing. Pricing has not been announced. Neither have display resolution, exact dimensions, weight, or the availability of expansion ports.

So all we know is that some company wants to sell something at some point in the future.

Because you use :x for that.

There is literally and figuratively no reason to not use Neovim for both.

No, I use Neovim. But this I use 100% of the time.

A few years ago I’d say Vim but nowadays it’s Neovim for me.

GitHub is not acceptable for new projects since June 4, 2018.

It’s already hard to find an actually fully working Linux phone that is even close to being a daily driver.

You can also replace individual components. It’s basically a bunch of binaries using an API.

The main problem is that people don’t understand that it is NOT “just an init system”

If you want to open Edge without actually wanting to open it, just accidentally click on one of the advertisements in the main menu or any info area widget. Those ignore the default browser and always open Edge.

Ever heard of parents? It’s not the job of the OS or the browserto monitor and control a kids internet access.

In most jurisdictions you need to be an adult to legally get an Internet access.

So people using the Internet are either adults or under the supervision of adults.

The browsers sooner or later will always respond “18+” and do not ask the OS.

Well—that is certainly a meticulous observation 👍

We should make it more clear, that it is not “Mastodon is the thing” but “ActivityPub is the thing, and Mastodon is just one of many implementations”

It’s the normal driver in the state it was when Nvidia dropped support. @[email protected] described it very well.

I don’t know the situation with Ubuntu, but on Arch Linux older Nvidia drivers are available as legacy driver DKMS modules working with the current kernel and tools.

So basically: Yes, this will work on a technical level.

My 1080 is supported by one of the legacy driver packages and is roughly 10 years old now.

I am pretty sure something similar exists for Ubuntu.

This a good idea?

This sounds like a fun project that needs some customization, like styling and templating everything to make it look like a blog with federation and comments and not like a Lemmy instance.

Edit: You could also setup GoToSocial for example and set maximum character size to 5000 or so.

This will give you a place to blog and get comments. Readers need a front-end and for them it just looks like a Mastodon account, but you could use styling and template magic to convert the back-end into a nice looking blog front-end.

It’s easy to setup, host, and maintain and runs on fairly low resources.

Lemmy or Piefed? Which is easier to host

Can’t say anything about Piefed, but from what I tried quite some time ago, Lemmy is absurdly annoying to properly set up in an already existing Docker environment with an already existing reverse proxy, because it wants to basically handle everything on it’s own.

It might be actually easier to use another machine or a VM and install Docker there and let Lemmy do whatever it wants to do und just proxy from your main setup to the Lemmy setup.

I gave up.

No, get a ladder.

Exactly! Your user data is stored in c:\users. This includes, well, your user data for all of the users, including all user-spefific configuration files and application data and actual files and directories created by the user.

Unfortunately lots of configuration is stored in the registry and is useless for transitioning them over to Linux. Same with most Windows software that doesn’t use the registry. You’ll unfortunately also find configuration files all.over the place. Might it be in the application’s installation directory c:\ProgramData, or somewhere else.

I did, and I just don’t “feel it”. Those is all great software but none of them really fits my specific use case. They all seem to be deeply connected with desktop environments or being just plain old font managers.

My dream is something like an image viewer, but for fonts. A bit like display from ImageMagick does it, but more like this.
