You can use different Map backends for the map functionality, OSM amongst them

Do you have an example or generally what kind of searches you are referring to? My experience with ddg has been "good enough" at least. The few times I don't find anything usable on ddg I ususally end up not finding anything

Have you set the localization to whatever language you are searching in? At least for German it has been working well that way IMO

I use Firefox on a Macbook as well, also with ublock. The site is definitely slow at the moment, but enter key worked for me and on the top of the page I see the number of results that were found...

Coming from the world of tiling window managers on linux, I do not use a touchpad at all. On the Macbook I have to use it occasionally, but I still stay on the keyboard as much as possible. So having to remap ESC to Capslock and often hitti

Maybe according to OPs perception, the reasons destroying the middle class and upward mobility are a combination of: competition pressure centered around places with strong "second place" (Job) opportunities, decades of civic mal-

The only information I have on Egyptian noses is that, according to Asterix and Obelix, Cleopatra was famous for her nose.

maybe it is right now. But in my experience they usually don't keep them up to date very well

It sounds like you were really unlucky. The last time I struggled with any of the issues mentioned by you is at least 4 or 5 years in the past. > But you are ignoring the fact that installing software on Linux is still a mess of resolvin

I didn't mean just managing 2 and 3. OSX comes with some software such as git and python2 preinstalled. However they do not usually keep that software up to date and there is no way for you to change that, which means that community pa

That is how my setup works in the terminal. MPD (music player daemon) runs from the start in the background and I can start ncmpcpp in the terminal to choose a album/playlist and then I can close it again or leave it on a different wor

There are different issues with OSX though, that colleagues of mine had, that never occur with Linux. E.g. the chore of somehow managing different software versions such as the outdated default one and a second one installed with homebrew.

He probably would :) But I just quoted the linked PDF a few comments above in the chain.

No, Youtube takes a cut from the ads that are run on the videos of the creators. So they are directly profitting from the content. A print shop as metaphor would work if a creator would have to pay youtube to host his video, but all further

Same for me. Though there is a wayland version of firefox, which I plan on trying out.

I have an integrated intel card in my notebook, and an extra nvidia card that I use with proprietary driver and bumblebee. That works great with sway

I think criticism of Amazon is still fair, criticizing Bezos personally is something different.

No that's an asshole/racist thing.

That is a ridiculous statement

Yes, I have stopped using both, the Slack app and the rocket.chat app at work since I was definitely seeing the effect of them in my RAM usage. I don't use an application tray in my desktop, so having browser windows open for the chats

Is it just me or have these posts to the LKM become a lot more frequently? I feel like there is one every other week now and I can't really imagine that Linus cursing has increased that much in frequency. What's the point/age

I don't get that feeling at all. The thing that stands out to me is how they are constantly mentioning something along the lines of "we discussed this with him/her on the maliing list", "they said it was okay",

You don't have to adopt any tone to contribute, but if you can not handle a Monty Python reference maybe you shouldn't contribute.

Very cool :) On that note, I think it is great how much effort you put into making wlroots, sway and wayland accessible through your blogposts and the open development process. While I have been busy and will be busy for a few more months I
