you can do this on debian, too. It's not specific to the OS -- it's the window manager. Specifically, this kind of window manager is called a tiling window manager.

Basically it just organizes your windows slightly differently. Instead of having them floating around like in Windows, Mac, or traditional desktop environments like GNOME, it tiles them -- when you open a new window, it automatically split screens it.

window managers also don't by default have things like a battery display or a wi-fi applet, like your typical desktop environment does -- you have to do that stuff manually by building some sort of status bar (there are various apps that provide status bars).

I'll play devil's advocate here -- I hate Meta, but Meta apps supporting activitypub would be a huge benefit for adding users to the platform.

Like other small social platforms, the fediverse has a fundamental choice to make between quantity and quality. The quality of Reddit took a nosedive in the last 5-6 years as the platform grew. I'm not saying it was always great in "the old days", but recently all of the big subs were just page after page of the same memes, stupid arguments ("it's called soccer! It's called football!") that have been had a million times, and the same jokes.

So the question is -- how much does the fediverse want to grow? The thing keeping me from deleting my Reddit account right now is some of the sports communities there, and things like a local urbanism group from my hometown.

Having Meta apps support activitypub could help establish that kind of userbase. At the same time, the influx of users could drastically reduce the quality of the platform. It's a balance that has to be struck by the community.

The cool thing about the fediverse compared to other platforms is that the structure allows this kind of thing to be decided fairly democratically -- each instance can "vote" by deciding whether to federate or not, and if we all agree we don't want them, everyone can defederate. If we're 50/50 they'll federate with half of the community.

yeah that's true, even properly permissioned users can break their systems

I guess what I am trying to figure out is -- how would the experience of using flatpak or other containerized software managers differ on an immutable system compared to a mutable one?

Or is the idea more that since you're containerizing, you can lock everything else for stability in a way that you couldn't before, because software installs needed to be installed in the system?

I didn't get it either, but this video does a pretty good job explaining why it's different: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMQWirkx5EY

du gehst auf der feddit.de Seite für kbin.social, zB: https://feddit.de/c/[email protected] für die linux community at kbin.social

auch zu empfehlen: feddit.de als home-instance setzen auf lemmyverse.net und von dort aus communities erkunden; dann hat man immer ein direkten Link zu den feddit.de Seite

die meisten von uns zahlen nicht mal die Bundessteuern, man muss schon relativ wohlhabend sein als Auslandsami bevor man Steuern zahlen muss -- IIRC muss man mehr als $107,000 brutto im Jahr einbringen, und man zählt (zumindest in Deutschland) keine doppelte Einkommensteuer; d.h. wenn man 120,000 brutto macht zählt man Steuern nur auf 13,000 davon; dann kann man die Menge, die man als Einkommenssteuer an der BRD gezahlt hat, auch nochmal rausnehmen; wenn man zB 33% einkommenssteuer gezahlt hat (als Beispiel, ich kenne die echte Zahl in der Einkommensklasse nicht), darf man 4290 von den $13000 abschlagen, und zahlt nur noch US-Einkommenssteuer auf $8580 -- was in der Einkommensklasse 24% wären, oder $2145.

I've had vision issues once because I didn't realize the cold brew recipe I'd gotten online brewed a concentrate and not just cold brew and had way too much of it

yeah, it's funny but at the end of the day all reddit cares about are their pageviews, engagement, and active daily users. They don't care whether people are posting "real" pics or john oliver pics, as long as they're posting

the mental fortitude to bounce back from the disastrous Augsburg transfer and missing the WC is great to see and this mentality is probably part of why he was able to do that.

if you're in Europe (or can "be in Europe" with a VPN), the replays are on the CONCACAF Youtube Channel. Here's the US vs. Mexico, specifically: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAJMGzml8U8&list=PL6XTKrlgbQUDYqtWD5Usuui5RzYiKbgfv

I don't know the specifics of where it's geoblocked, just that it works with a German IP.

Honestly though, I'm not sure I'd bother haha, it was just a hot mess of typical CONCACAF shenanigans.

if nothing else, you could make a pretty fun digital treasure hunt or geocaching thing with it
