Semperverus

Thats kind of like saying Valve and Steam are not the same thing. Like, yea, Valve owns and develops Steam, but most people will understand someone who calls the company “Steam” (even if they sound a bit daft in doing so).

There is fairly substantial rumor that there may be a smear campaign against firefox lately because they are still supporting manifest v2, which our owning class does not care for.

Mozilla has made their fair share of stupid decisions lately, but they are still leagues ahead of Google, Amazon, and the other FAANG-type companies in ethics and trustworthiness. Definitely something to keep a pulse on, but nothing to throw the baby out with the bathwater over. And if it really bothers you, use LibreWolf/Fennec.

Isn’t Snikket just a fork of Conversations for Android? It doesn’t look like it’s any better either.

Conversations+Prosody all the way.

I am a neural network that can generate highly photorealistic frames of Doom that seem like real life. I have no output port so these images cannot be seen by others.

Lmao, its everywhere now isnt it

Kate is great, just make sure you go through its settings and turn on all the features you would need.

Thats not necessarily dead, some FOSS projects move very slow as these are not the dev’s day job. And slow development doesnt equal non-functional. Especially for something as simple as an alarm clock.

It sounds like at least some of the features released in 4.0 were needed to make that work. Glide typing got disabled as a result of the new framework, so it’s definitely on its way (more now than before)

Did it get turned off? This is gonna be a major problem for me 😬

EDIT: It totally did. Looks like I’ll be on 3.1.6 for a while

It even has water markers for longer trails where youd be hiking for weeks or months at a time. Sometimes those spots are dry, but you can clearly see water channels in the ground where it would be flowing.

Pretty sure KDE’s Discover store hooks into Debian’s repos just fine too

For GoG games, you could just send a family member a copy of the game you downloaded yourself i suppose

It’d be great if they implemented the same identity encryption/obfuscation that Signal uses but for the IPs.

I’d say going directly to a developer’s github page for packages isnt too bad, especially now with all of the security features github has in the background, but yea technically true.

Obtainium but for Debian, nice

I have two company laptops. One lives at home. BYOD computers are still a bad idea.

If it helps, the web versions of O365 have been closing in fairly rapidly on their desktop counterparts to the point that I often find myself working in the web version without realizing it (usually when I open an attachment in Outlook or a Teams shared link). The preview of the new desktop version of Outlook is 99% the same as the web version now.

I don’t know if its possible or not but you might be able to “install” them to your desktop as progressive web apps.

I saw a good post the other day which suggested to NOT migrate (at first) but instead try to find as many cross-platform apps as possible and use them on your current setup until migrating over would be relatively pain-free. Learn the free applications before switching to the free OS.

Why is work not providing a laptop to you? Making/allowing you do work on a BYOD is insanity from a security perspective. I hope your company doesn’t have to go through PCI compliance audits or do any kind of transactions with the general public’s credit cards…

To be clear: what I wrote here is not a linux user’s opinion, but rather someone who works infosec for a Windows-based organization.

With that being said, you can use O365 apps through the browser just fine as long as you work out of your OneDrive or your team’s SharePoint storage exclusively. You can even use Outlook/Exchange through O365.

But if you can, I’d push for a company laptop even if you stick with your Macs. Mixing personal devices with work is a baaaaad idea for both parties.
