Microsoft wants to move Windows fully to the cloud
  • You could try distrosea before committing to an install.

    It gives you a VM online to play around in for almost any distro you can think of.

    Don’t forget that desktop environment (DE) and distro are decoupled in Linux, so if you didn’t like the feel of Ubuntu (GNOME DE) you can go with Kubuntu (KDE Plasma DE). Both are on DistroSea.

  • Remote work appears to be here to stay, especially for women | The Washington Post
  • I started intermittent fasting at home and it helped a lot. For me IF cuts down on a lot of snacking just from the nature of usually being more full between those hours and being strict outside of them.

    At the office we used to go for lunch all the time and the two restaurants in walking distance are a pub and an Italian place. If there were a more healthy option maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

  • Dear RedHat, are you dumb?
  • Especially not Linux users. This isn’t grandma with windows 95, or Uncle with his iPhone, Linux users are almost guaranteed to have in the past tried other distros.

    They will again. Begrudgingly, but they won’t look back either.

  • Remote work appears to be here to stay, especially for women | The Washington Post
  • If 99% of what you do is in front of a computer and the other 1% is in meetings there’s no reason there shouldn’t be remote work.

    I moved fully remote a year ago for several reasons, and as much as I miss the office camaraderie, my wallet, belt line and mental health all appreciate it a lot.

  • It's a really fun time to self-host today
  • I set up wireguard vpn and took down all my reverse proxies as it feels more secure and is easier to maintain.

    From what I’ve heard tailscale is a step easier as well. So you could vpn into your network rather than accessing the services via URL.

  • Ryan Johansen (50% retained) to Colorado for Alex Galchenyuk
  • I checked up on the thread on Reddit because I was curious. Apparently he’s part of the log jam keeping the youth who looked good on the team this year from making the squad.

    He was a slow, heavy skater who just had his Achilles sliced, so it’s likely he’ll lose a step there too.

    This is looking like a contract dump.

  • Reddit is in danger of a death spiral
  • Definitely. A lot of Reddit mods, or the “landed gentry”, are mods because they likely made the sun because they had a niche interest they were carving out a forum for.

    In the same groups a found a lot of the mods were people who participated in the community a lot. And then the others that participated were the first to get added to the mod list.

    Most of the time on most of the subreddits that aren’t defaults and don’t regularly hit the front page the mods are just users who love that particular subject, idea, whatever.

  • There's More to the Reddit Meltdown Than Meets the Eye
  • Anyone that says we’re “past” the days of forums, Reddit, Lemmy, etc. has an incredibly myopic view of what those really constitute.

    It’s been mentioned the communities, but the problem solving and wealth of knowledge of those small, hyper-focused communities are unmatched.

    Look no further than trying to find fixes through a web search, 90% of the crap you have to wade through is blogspam, which is mostly robot copy/pasted from other blogspam. The really helpful stuff is old forums and Reddit.

    You can’t replace those specific questions and that specific knowledge with microblogs, blogs, or long form stuff like medium.

  • NHL banning 'cause-based' jerseys next season | CBC
  • This is the result of the NHL being an old boys’ club and always afraid to go against the grain.

    They can’t stand for anything and they can’t speak out or have true leaders because anybody that does is blackballed or told to pipe down.

    I really hope we see the youth take the game from their old wrinkly hands one of these days.

  • Is Windows 11 worth installing over 10?
  • Lutris does pretty much all the main game stores. GOG, Steam, Uplay, EAOrigin, Epic. IIRC they also have custom wine scripts to install with recommended settings so you almost always have the best config out of the box.

    There’s also Heroic, which only does GOG and Epic, but is a bit cleaner and easier to use.
