I have been using the option to restrict to older dates quite often, in order to get good results

It’s hard for me to understand how people in movements like repairability, anti obsolescence, open source, open hardware, and similar causes, can have such views. It seems so contradictory… and yet, so common.

Doctors, euthanize me, please!

That would just make me feel fear and loneliness

Gobolinux has been trying to redefine and simplify the linux filesystem for a long time already, but no one gives it a chance

if they take the water and don’t return to the source, there will be less available water in the water body, and it can lead to scarcity. If they take it and return, but at a higher temperature, or along with pollutants, it can impact the life in the water body. If they treat the water before returning, to be closest to the original properties, there will be little impact, but it means using more energy and resources for the treatment

An old nokia!? Such scale of firepower is considered a war crime!

Whoa, take a deep breath, relax a bit. Modern life can get us constantly on our nerves, I understand it, but let’s not take it out on each other.

About the machine, it’s a very comfortable one to do writing work, and still works fine, so why not use it? Also, I’m from a “global south” country, and I can’t afford to replace stuff when I still have something in working conditions. Dumpsters around here don’t contain working electronic devices, by the way.

I didn’t comment like complaining in a demanding way, like thinking that mozilla devs would have to maintain it for me. I just commented to express myself and show that there are real people still using 32-bit software around the world

It’s a 64-bit cpu. From personal experience, using 32 bit firefox, I can run a bit more tabs. It’s enough for my use case, which is editing text documents and doing a bit of online research while in bed. I use it as an auxiliary device and sync my files using syncthing.

It’s a bay trail series, it’s 64-bit. I’m running mx linux and only installed the 32-bit firefox using multiarch, because the difference is pretty noticeable

Running 32-bit firefox is the only viable way to use my mini laptop that has only 2gb of ram :(

You’re not a dinosaur. Making people feel old and out of the trend is exactly one of the strategies used by big techs to shove their stuff into people.

but… why?

Linux mint for my brother-in-law, and debian for my professor, because he said he has an aversion to stuff changing in his computer and wanted something that stayed almost the same in 10 or 20 or years from now and didn’t fail him. He seemed enthusiastic with the concept of a distro that focuses on stability and wanted it, even if I said that it’s a bit harder to use and recommended linux mint.

A friend of mine keeps saying that this is how ai will dominate the world and take all jobs. People pay for a designer, coder, therapist, etc and then realize they are simply using some ai tool behind the scenes, so people get angered and go like “if I’m going to pay for someone to use ai, let me use ai myself”, and it will create some sort of generalized distrust that will make everyone use ai. I’m scared

I think the reason is much simpler. Browsers on chromeos use a different user agent than when running on linux distros and then it gets counted as a separate category. I don’t know for the first source linked, but statcounter uses data from user agent strings.

Installed linux for my brother-in-law and for a professor last month. Both liked it and are probably going to use it insted of moving to win11. I’m doing my part.

That’s what I love about linux! Instead of bloat, we get awesome optimizations like this here and there.

Those are almost exactly my phone’s specs >.<

At least it was really cheap, which the pinephone wasn’t
