youtube pfp to clippy ?

That would require having a YouTube/Google account, so no

hmmm, I wonder which country legally prevents me from doing that

The PBS articles only source seems to be the American government, that seems very much “empire sanctioned”.

The other one has a little more diversity, it cites the American government, national defense think tank analysts, and a company who’s primary customer seems to be the American government.

Would you trust an article exclusively citing oil companies, their associated think tanks, and companies that they are closely linked with money-wise?

I think VRChat is a pretty good counterargument to “nobody wants to watch movies in VR”. I myself don’t use VR or VRChat, but according to friends that do worlds with films are extremely popular. Maybe you think that’s a niche situation, but nobody I’ve known that’s tried it (more than a few people) has disliked it and all of them could just as easily watched it on a monitor. There are already thousands of people who sleep in VRChat, talk in VRChat, and play in VRChat. I actually know a really surprising amount of people that will sleep in virtual spaces, whether that be VRChat or just being in a Discord call.

For a second I thought it said “block” instead of “back”, and I was disappointed. Nice to see they’re trying to do something about the issue.

More like around 7 9/11’s, if we consider how America had 285 million people in 2001, and Britain has 67 million people now.

You could use a static site generator (like Hugo or Zola), then you could stick the site wherever you want, from GitHub pages to local website hosters. Another interesting option would be putting it on Tor or i2p. You can setup those programs to host your website on your computer easily.

So men like all of the bad programming languages, while boys are really into emojis (not a huge fan, unless they’re custom). It appears that whole gender is thoroughly cringe, and they should all choose a better gender.

It says in the article that windows sandbox is using a “base image”. It boots up the image, you do stuff then close it, and the next time you boot it up it’s the base image again. Is that not what a template VM would do?

The primary difference between a usual VM template and this is that it’s small. “When installed the dynamic base package it occupies about 100MB disk space”. That’s because it’s essentially mounting a bunch of the system files immutably. You could theoretically do the same on Linux, but it probably wouldn’t be worth the effort.

Most of the advancements they have is under the hood stuff, like linking files instead of directly including them or managing memory. Battery state pass through and graphics OOTB is cool though, depending on your setup you might have to put in a bit of work to make that happen on Linux.

From what I see, windows sandbox is literally a template VM.

“So Linux is free and doesn’t waste any more time than the alternative” at 8:13.

Linux will install faster than Windows, installing applications will be faster than Windows (because of the builtin graphical app manager, which unlike the Microsoft Store has most everything you want), and most of those burn all your time common bugs are fixed now. I have a computer running Fedora Silverblue, which I’ve done less than an hour of configuration with, and it’s had no issues playing videogames, doing blender, web browsing, or any of the other normal things.

I even have keys from windows 11 computers. I don’t use any of them (but also don’t really want to share, as that could encourage Windows use), so it doesn’t really matter.

I also tend to take friends old junk computers, and most people go through the upgrade of 7->10.

Lame and takes effort. Honestly, I already have several windows keys (ebay hardware moment).

Buying operating systems is not worth it. Just use Linux.

Also it cuts of my pronouns (and it’ll probably do that for most Hexbears), lol.

I clearly need to do better.

Most of these problems are literally just capitalism. This solution is just a band aid, and even then is unlikely to be implemented in a way that will help the problem.
