Maybe we have some bias on this topic, but I had the same thought. Maven is such a well known tool in IT, that I’m surprised they just created a social network with the same name. Until they get a bit famous this won’t be good for SEO.

He also seems to make a video almost every day. That really doesn’t help with the quality of the video’s. I doubt there is a lot of time to do additional research on the topic, so often it seems to just stick to the basic information from some kind of article and comments (and maybe a few related articles). And is often just related to the drama of the day.

Although he does sometimes have video’s that do require more research, but a lot of people won’t see those as they assume low quality because of many other video’s.

Sometimes I do like his videos, but this one was positioned so bad. The video does go over the changes in Plasma 6.1 and they are good, but this is not a huge change that would change anybodies live.

I know he is probably inspired by channels like Linus Tech Tips, but even they don’t got that far anymore. I think he probably intended this in a comedic way, as most of his audience knows that he makes his videos like this, but it really makes the videos worse.

Thanks for the update :) I was already wondering why the server was down.

Let’s hope the Local Only Communities won’t be abused (and only used for the intended purpose) so that we don’t have to start creating accounts on multiple instances.

Ah it makes more sense that way, I didn’t read the title as if they were talking about all the extensions that they found summed together. This does make it really clear that you should always check extensions when installing them, and not just install extensions with a low install base from an unknown author.

That headline is quite misleading … the malicious extension only had a few hundred installs, not millions. They just copied an existing extension that does have 7 millions installs. They did went quite far by registering a URL. Of course it is bad that stuff like this manages to get on the store, but as long as you check what you are installing, you should be fine.

Although this feature sounds helpful, it really looks like they went too far with this. They should probably look for a way to sell these Copilot+ pc’s in another way if they can’t get this secure enough and probably keep it disabled for companies…

I’m surprised they didn’t make sure that the part that should help you hide sensitive information worked well before letting the first testers get their hands on the feature. All this bad news about the future doesn’t help convince people to turn it on.

It would be nice if Jagex would confirm that it is fine to use this laucher. As far as I know we have no more information than this tweet from Mod Ash: https://x.com/kaelygon/status/1763667578315042847 Bolt does work the same as the official launcher, so it should not be a problem…

Fedora might be a good option, but it might require more setup with an Nvidea GPU. They use Wayland now, are a Gnome based distro, support full disk encryption. For me the package mangar has been fine, and they do support flatpak. It is a very large distro with backing from RedHat. So it should generally be stable.

Pop_OS! Seems to be the great distro if you just want to game and watch videos without any issues arround setting up the drivers. It has been a quite stable distro for me and it is quite similar to Ubuntu. Unfortunately this distro doesn’t have Wayland yet.

Manjaro is an Arch based distro, but it had some issues with using packages from the AUR. They do run Gnome on Wayland by default.

Ik had ze zelf nog niet eerder gezien. Lokaal valt er waarschijnlijk meer te behalen ja. Er zijn dan veel minder kiezers nodig en soms worden kleine partijen juist uitgelicht. En alleen al meer andacht is misschien al genoeg om de publieke opinie een beetje te beïnvloeden.

I started with an openSUSE dual boot with KDE. I didn’t use Linux a lot at that point. Later, I switched to Ubuntu on a laptop for about a year and used that until I bought a MacBook. Eventually, I returned to Linux by running Pop!_OS on my desktop, but games were a bit choppy, and I really wanted to just run Wayland. I also started to use RHEL at work for our servers. So now I’m trying to switch to Fedora. I still have some issues with the Jagex Launcher, but aside from that, everything seems to work great now.

At home, I have also had an Ubuntu Server for many years, and I also run Ubuntu Server on my VPS.

Wat een raar verhaal, waarom zou de Chinese overheid geld steken in het steunen van zo’n kleine partij die nooit zetels gaat halen. Ook heeft deze partij andere standpunten in het Nederlands dan dat het heeft in de Chinese media. (Zo zegt RTL: Vertegenwoordigers van de partij hebben sterke pro-Chinese standpunten, maar uiten die alleen in Chinese media.). Dus het is ook geen eenvoudige promotie van Chinese standpunten.

This looks great. That would be quite a powerful low-weight machine with long battery life. If they won’t be too expensive (and gaming works on them) I might get one. At least RuneLite seems to already support ARM64 on Linux and these chips also put more spotlight on ARM trough Windows on ARM.

Ze zijn bij de VVD blijkbaar over de problemen met regeren met de PVV heen en willen graag een echt rechts kabinet. Maarja dan moeten ze wel de NSC overtuigen om toch met de PVV samen te gaan werken… terwijl ze kort geleden nog met ruzie uit elkaar gingen.

Ik snap wel dat de VVD bang is voor een kabinet onder Timmermans, bij de volgende verkiezingen zal extreem rechts ze dan verwijten verantwoordelijk te zijn voor links beleid.

If you would just stick to playing games on the Quest 2/3 directly that should be fine. The Quest 2 can run basic games, so it does limit you a bit. For example VR Chat has some worlds with too many assets that are not playable on the Quest 2 directly. From what I remember you would be limited to Meta’s store though.

Unfortunately VR seems to be a niche thing so I doubt this will get a lot of priority on Linux.

I searched for a fish related video on PeerTube and put the URL (https://video.ploud.jp/w/ddbf542e-d4b6-4778-abed-8c51799188a4) in the search bar of my Lemmy instance, after a bit the video was available like here just as a regular Lemmy post. You should now be able to reply to it from Lemmy.

Flatpak and Snap definitely make installation more simple. The packages come with their own dependencies so you have way less issues with conflicting dependencies. I like them when they are officially supported by the distribution or developer, but I prefer the official installations over supporting a random person making a package (not sure if this is a thing with Flatpak, but with Snaps that was definitely a thing).

Some software really benefits from not begin inside flatpak though, I had to switch back to the deb version of Visual Studio Code as the integrated console didn’t have access to some software outside the package and was also logging weird errors.

Heftig filmpje, ik snap wel dat politici dit soort journalisten irritant vinden, maar het gedrag van deze perschef kan echt niet. Wel bijzonder is dat dit dus al de tweede keer is dat een microfoon van hen weggegooid wordt en er gewoon later excuses aangeboden worden, zoiets moet niet normaal worden. Aan de andere kant mag er ook wel op een iets minder irritante manier vragen gesteld worden, je krijgt op deze manier toch geen goede antwoorden.

Ik vraag me wel af of deze perschef niet op een effectievere manier deze journalisten bij Sophie Hermans weg had kunnen houden. Op deze manier krijgt ze de agressieve manier van interviewen alsnog over zich heen en moet de perschef veel te ver gaan, dus dit werkt ook niet.

Only Lemmy instances with custom emoticons were affected based on the Recap of the Lemmy XSS incident. So if Lemmy.ml doesn’t have these it should not have been affected.

So it works by fetching replies from Mastodon. We can see Mastodon users here by searching for their profile (like @user@example.com ) but that does not list any of their posts as Lemmy is not able to show messages that are not part of a post/magazine. Is there any way that we can find the messages trough a direct link?
