I miss Netbooks

i dont lmao. they felt crammed and were too bulky at the same time

im gonna have a physical bt keyboard to take along with it. last time i tried one, it worked pretty well

no matter how tiny, no laptop is more portable than a tablet

Another option is go with an Android tablet that has LineageOS support. You get fullish access to the system, but the system is still Android, so depends on what you want if that works for you.

that’s an acceptable possibilty, too. from my experience with my wife’s tablet, android is fine to work with, now that emacs is available

not a problem, im only gonna be using it as a kind of “dumb terminal” anyway

pine stuff has excellent cost/benefit, but…

Package cannot be shipped to your country due to logistical reasons.

☹️

did they release a changelog?

i don’t get it

what’s the issue?

also, 50 years from now, your kids will ask you about zio israel the same way people today ask about nazi germany and you’ll lie in shame

bye bye

it’s not offtopic. you defended the current-day equivalent of nazi germany and got rightfully banned for it. deal with it

how about not defending a terrorist state? maybe you should ask what israel could do to end the violence since it was the one to start it, not hamas

enjoy your ban

ever heard of friends? i never claimed it was a generalized phenomenon

good response, but the last part feels a little circular reasoning

linux contributors live mostly in nato countries, so we have no choice but to push people from non-aligned countries away, which will prevent people from non-nato countries from joining, which will make most contributors be from nato countries

as someone said, people who were removed from the list can still contribute, i think, but this might lead to a situation where technology sovereignty will mean using your own regional linux fork

i did test ghostbsd earlier today, actually. i liked it, it felt pretty solid. also, from reading the docs, freebsd gave me the impression of being a very solid system as well

but again, the permissive licensing puts me off, and i don’t see what it offers over e.g. debian that makes up for it

lmao, it was just an honest question. people are too sensitive

brazilian linux fork when?

honestly, i’m not even sure i’d blame him. who knows what kind of pressure he’s getting behind closed doors

my understanding was that the kernel didn’t publicly state any specific reason, but “complying to sanctions” semms like a safe bet to me

in any case, whatever the reason, this removal is unfortunate and uncalled for

YUP

so… maybe nobody should be banned and it sucks that this happened?
