Sad news, but trimming the fat is what people wanted Mozilla to do. Anyone know a good alternative to Fakespot? I absolutely don’t trust amazon’s own review summaries, and expect other alternatives would be for-profit data harvesters.
Im in the same boat as you. Insanity. There is a way to disable smart features (and internet/ads) after a factory reset if you dont need any apps like youtube, etc.
I already don’t but so far that hasn’t worked. Mass boycotting just doesnt exist in modern day. We don’t have enough inertia to sway the ignorant.
That giant handheld Nitro 11 looks atrocious. Happy to see handhelds entering the market after the steam deck, but this ain’t it.
Would there be any other way to access the iTunes music/media store? I only use itunes now to buy DRM free music when its not available on bandcamp. As far as i know its been the only way to access and purchase via the itunes store on a non-apple device
This is my go-to linux music player purely and simply for the fact it supports winamp classic skins
Emulation Station Desktop Edition (ES-DE) is probably a good alternative gaming frontend similar to Playnite
Pretty much. Isolated environments to run a single service usually, although someone with more familiarity can comment further
Worse than this, was their logo video for Tony Hawk’s Underground, where Eric the rival character gets attacked and pulled into the sewers by the T.H.I.N.G. and gets reduced to bones.
It’s like having a second or third monitor but instead of moving your eyes to the other monitor you move the desktop you’re currently looking at.
Legit malware shown in this article. Imagine an operating system/browser injecting what are essentially ads into your webpage. Whether or not chrome or edge are any good these are scummy tactics by microsoft
I set up a VPN tunnel to my home network and use pihole to block ads which worked on this app too, so that wasn’t a problem but the audacity to remove my paid-for full access was astoundingly awful
On that note, I bought a GIF viewer app’s full version via in-app purchase and about a year later, they updated the app to have ads again regardless and my “full version no ads” app got ads again and now i had to buy a subscription per month to be “ad free” needless to say I uninstalled
Biometric login. It is available to an extent through fprint on Linux but support is not there for all hardware and it isn’t a very seamless experience to setup at the moment
Thomas (the Tank Engine) and the Magical Railroad is the first movie I remember watching. I was a big Thomas-head as a wee kid lol and that claw train guy was terrifying to me
Crazy how a 6 year old game is already releasing a “nostalgia” version.
As usual its just another shell on wheels. Nothing revolutionary here, just seems like another art project.
Sounds to me like you would really enjoy the high customization and windows-like defaults of the KDE Plasma desktop environment. Unfortunately Mint doesn’t offer a KDE Plasma desktop version (although its available in its packages, its not recommended to install it on Mint). If Mint doesn’t satisfy you, maybe Kubuntu or Fedora KDE would be more up your alley.
