J’ai pas regardé la vidéo mais je tiens tout de même a mettre un avertissement a propos de 7 jours sur terre: quand je regardais leur contenu il y a quelque temps ils ne mettaient pas les sources de leurs informations, ils disaient de regarder dans la description sauf qu’elle était vide. Surtout que c’était du contenu politique et qu’ils avaient tendance a présenter des informations comme étant des faits ou d’un certain angle qui élimine le doute que quelqu’un pourrait avoir de la certitude d’une information

Mostly that they are generally made of cheap/very thin materials. They also kind of look like cheap Chromebooks (especially clevos, tongfang are better in this area). And it’s also the fact that these laptops aren’t really unique at all, they are mostly a logo swap with preselected components guaranteed to work with Linux. I’ve been using this Lenovo laptop that has a fantastic screen and an amazing CNC aluminum body, it works flawlessly and Linux support was never a consideration for them making this PC

If I am buying a laptop i want it to be unique, because if it’s not then I’ll just buy it straight from China on clevos website for half the price. What I don’t like is this is basically drop shipping but less consumer hostile

In over 3 years of daily flatpak use (of multiple apps) I’ve never had a single reliability issue with flatpak, the only ones being caused by me because I was trying out settings in flatseal that the app didn’t like. On the flip side I’ve found native packages to be broken more often than not, with .Deb files sometimes just not working and throwing an error or something. Package managers are better for sure but I’ve had dependency issues that I have never experienced with flatpak.

Lemmy (and phoronix) people are generally extremely repelled by new stuff in the Linux world

You can’t just make a statement like this without giving a hint of evidence or justification

In that case you should use user-install flatpaks and separating and reusing your /home partition

If they don’t use another shitty tongfang/clevo chassis this might be worth a buy

It’s an app store made for distributing Flatpak applications (desktop apps that work on every distro where Flatpak is installed, most distros install flatpak by default now). Flatpaks also allow isolation between apps and a fine permission system like you get on a smartphone (check out Flatseal for that)

Useless comment, it’s there now

You should not be using any kind of digital communication for criminal activities. OP, if your only goal is to prevent companies from scanning all of your personal life to show you tailored ads, then either is will be fine. I do prefer Proton though, as their products are more complete

Say what you want about pornhub and how they’re bad (and you’d likely be right), but I have to say, their public statistics are always super interesting (and well presented as well)

I don’t see how that addresses what I said in my comment?

I don’t get the rich getting richer in the title, how does owning a home (for the vast majority of people, on a mortgage) make someone rich? About 65% of the Canadian population are homeowners. 65% of the population owning 90% of the wealth isn’t that surprising or that wrong. What’s truly wrong is numbers like 1% of the population owning 30% of the total wealth in the US.

It’s always the homeowner boogeyman when in reality the problem comes from the government spending money wherever and not applying strict foreign home purchasing laws that keep increasing home prices. People who own one or two houses are not rich and are very unlikely to drive a Porsche, and even there, if it is an individual who owns that property, that person will have to pay their fair share of taxes on their income and property taxes.

What could they possibly have 270GB of source code for? 3.6M files for what?? Wordle?

Oh I see woopsies

Biden for sure won’t get back in he’ll be like 260 years old at that point

Je peux pas croire qu’il y a une cinquantaine d’années on allait dans le sens contraire a ce qu’on fait aujourd’hui. Il y avait du progrès incroyable avec HQ les cégeps la séparation de l’Église de l’état et j’en passe, et les politiciens maintenant sont en train de tout défaire ça et ils gardent en place ce qui doit changer parce qu’ils agissent par intérêt personnel…

Je pense que la CAQ ont compris qu’ils avaient perdu d’avance les prochaines élections, on dirait qu’ils ont retiré tous les filtres populistes et qu’ils font ce qu’ils veulent

I don’t have an answer, but still thanks for sharing this, I might listen to this at work tomorrow. I always like discovering new music and I get tired of my playlists real fast

Great! I love seeing Linux get system level auth with PAM
