Yes but the advantage of Linux over windows is obvious. It's open source. Where's the advantage of FreeBSD? Companies can make their own proprietary fork and give nothing back?

after 90 days, they just send the BAT back to you. They don't keep it.

The idea is that you're not supposed to minimize windows at all under Gnome's workflow, and you maximize by double-clicking the headerbar to save space. You get used to it.

For a 100% libre kernel, I feel like this is the more sensible option than Hurd, just to take advantage of all the effort that goes into the Linux kernel. I'm not knowledgeable on kernels in the first place though, so maybe a micro-kernel really is the best way to go once you figure out the proper architecture.

Number 3 is by far the most important, because most people just don't think about what web browser they're using. A lot of people don't even think about web browsers at all. They just think of the web browser app as "the internet", and that's it.

• uBlock Origin (of course)
• Tab Stash: It lets you organize your tabs into groups and keep the groups around in a sidebar that unloads them when you don't need them at the moment. Very helpful for someone like me who always has a bunch of tabs open.
• uBlacklist: It lets you blacklist domains from showing up in search results. It supports different search engines. Every helpful to get rid of SEO spam sites and mirror sites.
• Duplicate Tabs Closer: It detects when you have multiple tabs open for the same webpage.

With no context, completely in isolation, yeah Overwatch 2 isn't the worst. But for a lot of players, it's not just about what Overwatch 2 is, but also about what it did and what it means. That factors into players' feelings about the game.

There’s no need to shoehorn in your dislike of Chinese people into this video gaming story.

Strawman flame-bait everyone. Please ignore.

Fedora is great! It ended my distro-hopping.

This actually sounds like a really good idea! This could be big! I wanna try this for myself to get a feel for it.

I would agree if it was about genuine game mechanics or story or things like that. But lootboxes aren't designed for fun. They're designed to exploit vulnerable people for maximum profit, and trick others into giving those vulnerable people an incentive to spend away their life savings on thinly-veiled gambling for virtual prizes.

We have much to gain from lootboxes (at least in their current state) being removed from the equation entirely.

Only a little. The only thing I'm really worried about is IBM (maybe secretly) forcing Red Hat to reduce or cut its involvement with Fedora to save money. Without Red Hat's help, Fedora might struggle, but I don't think it will die or be corrupted as a result of whatever's going on.

Also, while I don't have the full picture, I heard that the whole "closed source" thing was an exaggeration in the first place. So maybe there isn't really much to worry about. We'll just have to see of course. I like Fedora a lot, but I can just switch if I need to, so I'm not really letting this worry me.
