So basically, Google realized they fucked up by tightly integrating their browser with their OS, and now they're doing what they should've done in the first place by uncoupling them.

It'd be badass if someone used this opportunity to make a ChromeOS fork based around Firefox.

I've heard of this before. Stupid question, but what's the risk of being banned from Discord for using it?

2020 was such a shit year in computing. So many things got killed off. CentOS, Windows 7, Flash, and Python 2.x, off the top of my head, and probably some other things as well.

I mean yeah, most of these things were getting long in the tooth, but they were widely used and it would've been nice if they were all supported longer.

I'd love it if the KDE devs made Baloo and Akonadi optional. Their insistence on including them reminds me of Micro$oft's insistence on bundling Internet Explorer and integrating it into the OS shell in Windows 98.

Here's hoping that they don't.

So in other words, we still don't know yet.

"Them" being Threads or Kbin?

I'm a Linux user, but I like having control over my own hardware, and I don't want my next PC to be an underpowered thin client designed only to work with a commercial cloud OS. I hope this doesn't take off any time soon.

I'm surprised the number isn't higher than that tbh.

I like the changes that have been made so far. It's neat having a positive reputation score for once. 😅

I thought this was going to be a thread debating the merits of the two disc formats, and I'm disappointed that it's not. :(

I know that particular format war didn't last very long, but I wonder if there's anything HD-DVD ended up doing better than Blu-Ray.

As for the actual topic of this thread, I'm not sure if it's the right analogy. Blu-ray and HD-DVD were incompatible with one another, while Kbin and Lemmy are mostly compatible. I'm not entirely sure what to compare it to, maybe Linux vs. BSD?

Hot peppers. Whether it's jalapeno, cayenne, habanero, Thai chilis, ghost pepper, or even the milder ones like banana peppers, they're all great. :D
