in my experience the browser went through a poor engineering phase just as Chrome was getting good, and that continued for quite some time, the mobile browser took a very wayward turn a few years ago
oddly this happened at the same time as Rust and Firefox OS appeared which i think are phenomenal achievements
so Chrome ate Firefox’s lunch and the series of weird CEOs have compounded that by attempting to cover it up with progressive sounding PR
oh i didn’t know Mint supported ZFS and nvidia wayland install etc?
the ubuntu installer has always been the key difference for me specially with zfs and multi-monitor/fractional scaling/nvidia setups that it has configured well over the years where other installers leave you with a lot still to do
it’s very easy to make those changes to ubuntu, but i guess for a new user it might be a significant barrier
this is a fucking masterpiece
they ergonomically have 3 different niches although laptop can also be desktop
a bunch of progressive sounding MBAs smearing google money on their careers
yep. those debates seem to be trapped in an endless cycle where one or both sides can’t handle certain realities. they all start off vaguely informative and end up as just entertainment.
is that what happened? we’ve had very different experience of reality
Destiny
There has been a few attempts; zeronet and one from bittorent themselves that was dropped (I wonder what happened to that).
None of them have been used to create the killer app that has inspired the required network effect for mainstream usage. I guess finding the magic architecture that works and becomes sticky is the key. There are so many ways to do it!
And rinse with diluted cider vinegar after?
solar
solar!
self hosted services that automatically and safely scale to global p2p services is about to happen
so true and it’s not just equalizers, it’s compressors and all the other tools for solving audio problems
try dual booting with the latest ubuntu and try a few things, customise it a bit. you might be surprised how good things are!
i only switched over quite recently (a few years ago)
i swear there has been significant improvements in wifi, bluetooth, gpu support, gaming over the last 10 years that made me think it was now good enough
also there was areas where linux was outdoing windows for quite some time; system wide audio equalizer, customization generally, home services and self hosting, development tools
and open source
because Ubuntu has been fantastic for a long time now
