the author is the co-dev of cwtch with a proven track record of shipping product. as they state, it's impossible for any one dev to take on a product of this magnitude but I'm cautiously optimistic about this thing being in a position to gain contributors at this point.

the video blows, dude. jolla are opensource takers, they don't have a free tier so you can't just install it and take it for a spin. so an actual "here's how it works" video is beneficial.

my contention is that sailfish should be the next thing, after wrangling it out of the hands of those fucks. not forked android, not tweaked gnome shell on postmarketos.

this video wastes time on converting imaginary people over who don't know they're being spied on (the three hour long, or so it felt, intro with pichai and friends) showing ubuntu touch (wtf) and the presenter's face in the frame for what feels like 90% of the video.

this is a shit video on its own and especially for the target audience here.

what kinda hardware do you need to "run this on your desktop"?

this is an incredibly, improbably shit video.

thanks. the notification went away after login and I wasn't able to find its text anywhere in the myriad of pages.

also I'd take this "does not" coming from them with a bag of salt.

this thing here. I've dramatically reduced support work at two shops I've set this up for. incidents went from from coupla times a month to once a year. not to mention - you don't need no VPS no more, don't need no database, nothing, the simplest web hosting will do and it's very cache friendly.

as to "how" it's as simple as torify yt-dlp https://youtu.be/etc. I don't think it'll help, though. maybe try some alternative frontend like Freetube that allows you to download videos interactively.

for $0 a day, you can utilize Codeberg pages for static hosting or VMs from Oracle Cloud Free Tier (4 cores and 24 GB RAM that you can use on up to four VMs).

for the domain part, you can get 'em from afraid.org or eu.org.

• you should give less details. model? voltage? amperage/wattage?
• there ain't a direct line charger - battery, power goes through a buncha stuff before it reaches the battery.
• how's this linux related?

I checked and it wasn't mentioned in the article; just choosing a wayland session is not enough, the games are by default ran through the xwayland compatibility layer. you need to start each game with the DISPLAY variable unset in order to run wine in wayland mode.

I mean I can't stand the thing but this is basically paid-for nuthugging - watch me dunk on the team you hate. fluff, bereft of any semblance of standards. you're allowed to pay for office but not install 7zip and any other utility. haven't tried in the past decade or so, but I am sure you can make a usable workstation out of any windows - rip out the irritants, fall back on tons of stuff developed over what four decades?

it ain't GUI inconsistency issue; you got that plenty on the other side of the fence with Qt/GTK/Ayatana heterogeneity. and also not the thing where you can change a setting in three places, that's also present ova here, in spades.

the issue is MICROS~1 and I have a fundamental disagreement on the concept of "whose shit is my shit". no other thing can alleviate that clash of interests, this is someone judging the quality of the chopped onions in a shit sandwich - don't matter how skillful the chopping was or wasn't, I ain't having none of the thing.

yeah, that's the thing - "outside" would be on my property, so all that dust is deposited there, forever, that shit doesn't decay. trying to think of some containment rig and disposal procedure atm. will be looking for other experiences; the dudes in the video I linked don't give no fucks, happy as clams
