Not sure about multiple monitors
Most usb-c ports with DP alt mode support up to 1 monitor at 4k@60Hz, or 2×1080p@60Hz, and I believe 2×1440p@30Hz. It comes down to bandwidth, so I think that as long as you’re fine with one monitor running at a slower refresh-rate or lower resolution, you can have your primary screen displaying in high-res.
Of course, you have to also take into consideration the GPU performance, running higher resolutions will usually degrade performance!
I think more and more browsers are spoofing their UA to pretend that you’re using windows, for fingerprinting resistance
well, the point of flatpak is to have bundled dependencies so they run predictably no matter the distro
if one of your software’s dependency gets updated, and your software isn’t, you may run into issues - like a function from the library you’re using getting removed, or its behaviour changing slightly. and some distros may also apply patches to some of their library that breaks stuff too!
often, with complex libraries, even when you check the version number, you may have behavioural differences between distros depending on the compile flags used (i.e. some features being disabled, etc.)
so, while in theory portable builds work, for them to be practical, they most often are statically linked (all the dependencies get built into the executable - no relying on system libraries). and that comes with a huge size penalty, even when compared to flatpaks, as those do have some shared dependencies between flatpaks! you can for example request to depend on a specific version of the freedesktop SDK, which will provide you with a bunch of standard linux tools, and that’ll only get installed once for every package you have that uses it
it depends™
what are you protecting yourself against?
for my use case, that’d be good enough, i don’t want my school/building admins to snoop on the websites i visit, and don’t want to fear academic repercussions for torrenting and such
though if you think your government is out to get you, then tunneling to another country is probably best!
“AI” today mostly refers to LLMs, and whichever LLM you’re using, you’ll likely face the same issues (wrong answers creeping in, tending towards mediocrity in its answers, etc.) - those seem to be things you have to live with if you want to use LLMs. if you know you can’t deal with it, another rebrand won’t help anything
it sure seems like it though
i mean, they’ll never replace system package manager, but for desktop applications, flatpak is honestly quite good
wow is me, i am le surprised
to be fair, some people deserve to be called assholes
i mean, the main issue is that theologues base their beliefs on the belief that some old texts hold universal truths
according to the github readme, you can just run sudo pro config set apt_news=false to disable those
if you have things set up the way you like on xubuntu, it’s maybe worth it to just do that rather than start fresh
c’est une blague. ils ont pas osé payer pour un nom de domaine si merdique quand même !??
me semble que c’était LQDN aussi qui avait écrit sur les facteurs considérés “suspects” par la caf ou l’assmal - c’était principalement des faibles revenus et le handicap.
et ça me paraît vraiment bidon comme facteurs - je pense que, si y’a des gens qui devraient être considérés suspect, c’est ceux qui reçoivent des aides sans être handi/ALD/faible revenu/précarité/… genre, c’est normal que des gens handicapés aient beaucoup d’aides, c’est moins normal que des gens aisés et sans handicap en aient, et je peux mieux comprendre que ces catégories là soient enquêtés de plus près
i mean, you understood the meaning of the sentence, right? so the person managed to get their point accross, and saved on length by using that form - that’s actually quite linguistically clever!
