Has the Bottles Next Update come out yet?

For basic stuff like what's done in a browser I use the Falkon Browser. Very light weight. I will say it sucks for video acceleration though. 480p Max.

I use it for YouTube, emails, word processing with libreoffice. Runs SNES emulators quite well too.

I'm running AntiX Linux on a shitty 2010 netbook and it runs like a champ. Intel Atom and 2gb RAM.

We need svelter OSs, not new computers.

I hate to be that guy, but it is literally already too late to reverse climate change, largely due to the attitude of people like you.

Turns out incremental change is worthless when you are on a time limit.

Nintendo DS emulation. That's about the one novelty use case.

Been playing an early leaked copy. It's quite good. The summoning mechanic is much deeper than I thought it would be.

Items respond to eachother. If you send a Fire Slime onto grass blades, they catch on fire. If you put a bouyant object on water it will float.

If you out a rock on that bouyant object, it will sink. It's pretty next level.

Regulations only exist because Capitalism would consume itself without guardrails.

Once capitalism is dead.

Technology is great, it's just naturally being used to exploit.

I mean, you are right, but I don't buy that the solution is mass government surveillance.

 

I think it's pretty safe to say that the majority of us are here to avoid another corporate takeover of our preferred platforms. It would seem to me to be a tad irresponsible to allow Facebook into our space with open arms, allowing them to hoover up our data. I would love to keep using Lemmy.world, but will happily change instances if need be, and I feel many share that sentiment.
