RustDesk is the closest alternative, and I think it does a pretty good job.

IRS hold times are criminally long. “30-60 minutes” is what the IVR will say, but you’ll likely be waiting longer.

Combine that with the fact that they’re only taking calls Monday-Friday, and that means that if you’re working class (the only people that are actually taxed), you’ll be lucky to get through on one of your lunch breaks for that week. Otherwise, you’re screwed.

Russia is the country imposing the invasion in Ukraine. Russia is the only country that can stop doing the invasion.

Lol. It’s a close second, but at least Apple isn’t blatantly hostile toward users in the same way that Microsoft is.

Obligatory people getting mad at you for people suggesting you stop using software that is openly hostile toward you response.

Using containers on Linux has basically no performance loss compared to running on the host. They share a kernel and nothing needs to be virtualized (unlike containers on macOS and Windows), so anything you run in a container is basically the same performance as running it on the host.

I still agree though: using Nix is better than using Distrobox for many other reasons.

FYI: The Mises caucus is an even more far-right faction of the (fake) Libertarian party that leans pretty heavily into ethno-nationalist policies. I’d take everything this organization says with a massive grain of salt.

Nix has more packages , by far. Nix also automatically handles the dependent libraries for each package, which is something you can’t do with brew on immutable systems. This means that Nix can install software like espanso, which wouldn’t work on uBlue derivatives otherwise.

I really wish the uBlue maintainers would have opted for Nix over brew for that reason. It’s not much more difficult to do nix profile install nixpkgs#package-name over brew install package-name. They could have even aliased it to make it easier.

This is just me being pedantic, but I keep seeing this mistake when UTM is mentioned (specifically in headlines), so I feel like I have to say something:

UTM is not an emulator. It is virtual machine software that uses an emulator (QEMU) to virtualize operating systems.

The difference: emulators emulate hardware. On which, the virtualized operating systems run.

If someone could build a preconfigured image that has Phosh and basic phone apps, I would consider using this full time.

I use Helix, but this rad logo makes me feel like a nerd for not using emacs 😭

Servo cannot come soon enough. And yet… it’s so far from being even close to ready for real usage.

Let’s remove them in real life 🙂

It was always opt-in. People got up-in-arms about it anyway, but it literally didn’t work unless you configured it.

The change here is that it now requires the installation of a plug-in.

Seriously. The Luddites were mostly correct about their objections to technology being used to replace humans and making exploitation more efficient, making OP’s misuse of the terms that much funnier.

Midwestern democrats are actual democrats. If all democrats had their politics and approach, we’d be much better off.

I’ve never heard of it before. Is it this? I don’t see any mention of it being FOSS or even where to download their app.

Synergy doesn’t work with Wayland, sadly.

Be warned: Synergy doesn’t work with Wayland.

They only just added the option to use a self-hosted instance a few weeks ago, if I remember correctly. If it’s not there now, it should be there soon.
