The right answer is definitely not landfill.
Most people use their computers to run a web browser, maybe a word processor or media player, and… not much else. Even someone who has only used Windows can figure out those basics on a Linux desktop.
If the charities are unable/unwilling to provide support for Linux, they could give computers away on Craigslist before dumping more e-waste into our environment.
Doesn’t Apple Contacts support CardDAV natively? These sites say it does:

I’ll never be happy about almost every smartphone user I know happily putting my personal details into their phone, which then sends them to the likes of Google, Apple, and Facebook.
I de-googled my phone and sync my contacts to a trustworthy server. I hope this will eventually be easy for everyone.
I would think at least some of it was for historical preservation. The prerelease demo is neither the same as nor included in the released game. Voices are different, for example.
I expect MatrixRTC will be capable of screen sharing if it isn’t already, so this is probably just a matter of time, so long as Matrix gets the sponsors they need to continue their work.
I don’t find it surprising at all. Lots of software bugs remain hidden until some circumstance triggers them. Different hardware, different levels of system load, different filesystems… all sorts of things can make a difference.
For what it’s worth, I was using packaged builds on Ubuntu, Ubuntu Studio, and Debian.
Glad you’ve been lucky. :)
I’ve tried it several times over the years, but was disappointed every time to find that it was very crashy. I hope they get that sorted out.
I would be satisfied with people not making wild, misleading, insulting claims about others in the first place.
I wonder why you’re so intent on arguing in support of that behavior.
I don’t know if any of what you claim is true, since I haven’t followed those discussions. However, even if true, none of it would mean they are anti-LGBT.
Servo is a web rendering engine, not a browser.
Also, Ladybird is newer, and therefore news to more people. That, along with the fact that it only recently became a stand-alone project, could explain why you see more talk about it lately.
No one is trying to hurt their characters.
Then I suggest not spreading comments referencing “anti lgbt stuff” when (as far as we have seen) there is nothing anti-LGBT about them. Even if you mean no harm, it can do damage, by coloring people’s perception of the project and its leadership.
What about the anti lgbt stuff? Thoughts…?
It is important to remember that turning down a pull request does not make a person (or project) anti-LGBT.
Sadly, I have seen bullying and brigading from people who claim to be supporting inclusiveness, more than a few times. That behavior alone would be enough to sour me on them personally, and on any change they had submitted.
And, of course, there are other perfectly valid reasons to decline a PR as well.
Asking for changes we would like to see is fine. Demanding them is not. Resorting to character assassination when we don’t get what we want is absolutely not.
Guest computer?
Dedicated server for multi-player games?
Retire the Nvidia card, put the rest in a small case, and make it a Kodi box?
I think it’d be great to live in a world where this technology required warrants, transparency, and other oversight from the start.
Me too.
It boils down to the fact that this technology is widespread, and will continue to be widespread regardless of my actions
That same reasoning has been used innumerable times throughout history. I suppose each of us must decide whether we think it holds water. It reminds me of an old adage: No single drop believes it is responsible for the flood.
Predator does way more than just ALPR.
I know. I looked it up. I mentioned the name not because I think it represents what it does, but rather to point out that it will affect how people feel about you and your work, even if in subtle, imperceptible ways. It’s up to you to decide whether you’re comfortable with that.
I don’t have a specific suggestion, but here is what comes to mind:
Whenever I find myself on a fine line like the one you’re trying to walk, I consider whether I’ll look back on my life and be proud of what projects/causes/changes to the world that I advanced with the time and talents that I have.
My guess: Because it’s both FRee and frEAkish (atypical) compared to commercial uniX.
FWIW, I think Steam accepts addy.io addresses.
You might also write Valve a letter politely explaining how this policy is hostile to customers who wish to maintain some level of privacy and spam protection. If enough people complain, over time, they might be taken seriously.
Sony used to make compact variants of their flagship Xperia phones. Good specs. Good battery life. Good camera. Good display. Good sound. Good reception. Headphone jack. SD card slot. Unlockable bootloader, so they could be de-googled.
Sadly, the “compact” models grew slightly larger with each model year, and even a not-so-compact one hasn’t been released in a while.
TIL someone still uses NoScript.
For anyone reading this who is unfamiliar with Debian’s release process, the Testing distribution is not a release. Rather, it is a holding area for packages that may eventually become part of a release.
Some people choose to run it instead of Debian Stable in order to get more recent non-security updates to packages, with the understanding that occasional breakage is normal for Testing.
