Can the term potency also be used to refer to the exponent in English? Because that is what is meant by the terms in the other languages and I haven’t come across that usage of the word potency in English

If you read the article you find that he didn’t actually sell furniture, he got people on Facebook marketplace to pay him money for the privilege of collecting free furniture from Craigslist. It’s a really shitty scheme

I used to think like you but have been using endeavouros for the last 2 years or so and never felt like I an lacking stability.

Okay but the penguins do make sense, right? Penguins are like the mascot of linux

Where exactly is their company going? I’ve only ever heard good things about them

The woman’s hand in the back looks weird.

Raspberry pies are more powerful than you give them credit here. Nothing wrong with using systemd on them

Yup, my android tablet is the only device I own (unless you count my smart tv) where I don’t use Firefox. At least there’s kiwi so you can have a tablet interface and still be able to install addons

Looking at RPCS3, it seems like most PS3 games wouldn’t run well on PS5 without dedicated, PS3-like hardware.

I have never ever managed to scratch a disc to the point where it became unusable. Neither have I ever had problems when buying used discs. I agree about the speed though; at this point my internet speed surpasses the speed with which games are installed from a disc

Oh yeah their efforts are definitely a huge net benefit for the Linux community, I just don’t like seeing big companies portrayed in a better light than they deserve. When it comes down to it, what valve really cares about is still their bottom line.

Playing at 4k+ resolutions, the difference between a well implemented quality DLSS and native ranges from barely distinguishable to objectively better because DLSS is also great anti aliasing.

Before DLSS 2 came out you might have had a point, but now I simply disagree with your statement.

Proton is based on wine, which is copyleft so valve didn’t exactly have a choice in keeping it open source. I also don’t necessarily think that their goal was to reach the rather small existing user base of Linux users, but rather they wanted to make sure they aren’t at the will of a bigger company (Microsoft) whose product is/was required to run most of what valve makes money with.

How is it biased to point out whether you can disable telemetry and how simple it is to do so?

I have switched from manjaro to endeavouros about a month ago. I definitely prefer endeavouros. However, the kernel install GUI in manjaro was nice, made it very easy to get an overview of the available kernels and which ones are still getting support.

What’s the issue with those TLDs?

In fact, no one outside of your instance will be able to see it, because everyone else’s version is in sync with beehaw, which doesn’t get your comments.

I think two out of those believes stem from survivorship bias. You think of old music and consumer products as superior because the only ones that “survived” are the good ones. No one remembers bad music from 50 years ago, and for every old thermos flask/blender/knife that you see around there are dozens that broke years ago.
