(because "save as" isn't available on "modern" websites)

I think this is also more of a mobile issue with apps more than just websites. Like, hence why those screenshots are so often from phones. Generally one's that are more obviously from a computer are social media posts, presumedly to facilitate sharing on other platforms easier.

Because on desktop, even if a website doesn't allow it, using the dev inspector usually allows you too. I wonder if it would be possible to create an extension/userscript that automates that on hostile websites.

The mechanism for how it works is that as a remote instance sends in it's downvote count, Beehaw immediately drops the message without modifying the database. Part of this exchange is an expected response of the total updated downvotes. However, Beehaw sends back "0" and the remote instance knows it can't be zero, so it treats it's local count with higher validity.

Essentially, this all ends up meaning that what ssm will see is the total of all downvotes from users on their own instance, and nothing else. This might be just their own downvote, especially being on a smaller instance. But I've seen lemmy.world users be confused about it bc the count they see is say, -5. Have been told my instance obviously has them enabled 😅

Remote instances don't communicate their vote tally's with each other for a third instance's post.

Silent Generation needs to shut up already.

Bazzite is exclusively KDE, and I honestly don't think it's possible to run a different desktop manager on it.

Edit: Sorry, my mistake, there's the option for GNOME as well. But I don't think they recommend even switching between them on an install.

Except the one Marques has can go 15mph, or about 24kph, almost twice that of the one in the article.

There's always Bazzite's vanilla KDE cousin, Aurora: https://getaurora.dev/ It is essentially the Fedora KDE spin with way better hardware support and QoL features.

But Bazzite isn't really a distro in it's own right anyway, it's an unofficial Fedora spin that gets updates pretty much immediately (<24hrs) from upstream. It kind of "solves" a lot of the issues with most gaming distros.

I'd highly recommend both to new users as well, as they are immutable (like the Fedora Atomic Desktops) and make it a lot harder to completely mess up your install while you're still learning.

Yeah, based off the atomic desktop versions, as it's immutable.

You invoked the comparison by using the phrase "today's parents are too IT ignorant". If anything, they know more about tech than ever before.

Edit: In response to the rest. Parents just don't want to have uncomfortable conversations with their kids, they never have. Because, no, it isn't actually easy to block all pornographic websites reliably.

Yes. What is your point? I was commenting on the fact you thought this was a current parents problem when it's been a problem for over 20 years now.

I don't know what you lived through, but there was wider internet access in the late 90s and early 00s that caused widespread panic amongst the boomers when I was a kid (born early 90s). I grew up in the era of the first social networks, MySpace being the biggest early one I remember. What surprises me more is that so many millennials have grown up to be just like their parents in that regard.

The thing is, Bazzite isn't really a distro in it's own right, which they admit themselves. It is essentially Fedora with a bit extra on top, and it gets all the updates Fedora does at the same time. It seems like they're trying to "solve" some of the issues with other gaming distros. As far as pre-installed software, it comes with Steam and Lutris pre-installed. Sure, there are some linux gamers out there that don't need those, but the vast majority will use them. Apart from those, it has the graphics drivers pre-installed for your system, based off your iso choice. Everything else is installed by choice through a first-boot wizard.

Todays parents? No. The Boomer/Gen X parents of Millennials were also incredibly IT ignorant.

Right, that was the other point I meant to make. There absolutely is a way to seperate the powers that sudo grants. The sudoers file allows you to limit a user or groups permissions to only certain commands. Distros could and should absolutely take advantage of this.

Well, no, not exactly. Most accounts on desktop linux distros are admin accounts. The way I would define that is whether or not the user has sudo permissions, either by being in the sudo group or sudoers file. Some distros do ask if you want the user to be admin. And that's pretty analagous to being admin on windows and getting a UAC prompt for an elevated process.

Yeah, I think they're based off the fedora atomic desktops of Silverblue and Kinoite respectively which are gnome and kde based. They do angle Bluefin as more workstation oriented, for what it's worth.

If you want a non-gaming alternative to Bazzite to recommend, there's it's two universal blue siblings, Aurora (general purpose desktop) and Bluefin (silverblue/workstation distro). They both have the same setup as Bazzite but without the explicitly gaming elements. https://universal-blue.org/

Are you saying to use an image to text engine just for what are text fields in applications? That sounds horribly inefficient...

That's all really fair. But I also just assumed he was parroting what the mother had called it, and that she was just blissfully unaware that she'd mixed the memes.

Do you subscribe to !vexillology@lemmy.world at all? It's decently big, but you're right about missing the one from the other side.

And the bot, as an extension of it's corporate overlords wishes, is telling a mistruth. It is lying because it was made to lie. I am specifically saying that it lacks intent and agency, it is nothing but a slave to it's masters. That is what concerns me.
