Is it not disgraceful that you have to use a trick so some third party company doesn’t install software you don’t want on your hardware? I think that’s appalling!

That type of thing is concerning. What browser are you using out of interest?

That’s fine for installing patches to the same version, and updates to some major software, but you won’t receive all the new features, and since versions are only supported for 13-months you’ll stop receiving updates by then. It’s good to familiarise yourself with the release cycle https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/releases/lifecycle/

I would always out of habit avoid any links that go to somewhere other than the advertised destination - so if it goes to an analytics platform I would copy and paste the text if the text of the link is a URL, or find an alternative. Always hovering links and being absolutely sure of where they go should really be taught as standard practice.

Presumably you can hover over the link to see the actual URL (which I think is best practice anyway), or is it more sophisticated than that?

That’s still not how you upgrade from one Fedora version to another. Please try not to provide information you’re unsure about, it’s irresponsible.

This is the documentation: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-new-release/

This isn’t a correct answer to your question, that’s why it’s getting downvotes.

My biggest regret was getting rid of a perfectly good portable CRT TV that would have been ideal for pre-7th generation gaming, just as they stopped making good quality CRTs.

I’m about to get rid of my ageing “dumb” TV and not replace it. Everything comes in to my laptop now, so any monitor and set of speakers to plug it in to will do.

My prediction is that this is going to be the end of the line for TVs as stand-alone hardware - just like most people don’t really have stand-alone Hi-Fi systems any more.

OK well I’m not sure where the AppImage “purists” and Flatpak “critics” are but I’ve not really encountered them.

I mean they are two things that co-exist, it’s not like they’re in commercial competition. Flatpak itself is usually distributed as an RPM or deb.

What’s off? That looks like it might be useful.

It’s so real that I had to enable 3rd party scripts in uBlock Origin to get past the second page, is that intentional?

Yes, I was kind of being rhetorical there, I thought that would be enough to draw attention to what’s going on. Also a new Lemmy account that exclusively links to one unknown website is a big red flag.

Well he’s on Mastodon so I guess that’s your answer.

Why would we attack the author? That seems like an oddly specific request that makes me oddly suspicious of the author, if anything.

That’s a good interview but what about it brought it to mind with 6.5?
