And he lost the case obviously…


I think you choose a poor example.
When I say long name I wasn’t implying meaningless ones.
Most business with a lot of machines uses long names where everything as a logical meaning.
[Site][service][Rack][User selected 8 chars name]
I mean you dont have to use such obtuse names. But if you have a lot of servers you have to have a long name or you will risk exhausting the available names.
I’m just saying long names dont have to be obtuse or confusing. You can use user selected names as a suffix to a more functional initial prefix. So that people who work this area of the infrastructure can have clear names but at the same time some other sys admin that never worked on it can still know where and who is responsible of the server.
My initial point is just that the namespace and length of hostnames mostly depends on what you want to do. For a homelab you dont need wide namespace. But for a large business using short names wouldn’t be practical either.


In a business with tens of thousands of servers, it makes sense to have long complicated names.
For a homelab ? Not really.


Americans rediscovering the importance of labor unions…


I think it’s a waste of time to fight it.
Elon just has to ask daddy Trump and he will get anything necessary to get the autorisation.
I don’t think the Astrophysicists will convince Trump obviously.


Yeah. I have BF6 so…
But at this point I’m reluctant to boot up my windows partition just to play this game.


I’m also on an NVIDIA GPU (4070 Ti) and I have no problem so far.
Even if the NVIDIA driver are marginally less performant, i think the leaner OS makes up for it.
I’m fairly sure I have better FPS and stability in Rocket League.
As long as you are ok with some tinkering with proton from time to time I think cachyos can work as a daily driver for gaming and most desktop tasks.


Too little, too late.
Already left for Cachyos and it is for me without a doubt better at everything than Windows.
Good riddance.


While technically correct, it runs apps, it’s misleading because it won’t run the majority of apps from the playstore.
Google holds people captive with the playstore and the very sneaky google play services.
Only the most hardcore tinkerers and privacy oriented would run a pure AOSP phone.


Ok, not OP but also wired-to-argue-for-no-reason :
People present graphene as some independent project that throws the middle finger to Google.
In reality Google could very easily stop tolerating the sandboxed playstore and require them to follow the same “certification” as the other.
Sure graphene could still ship but without the playstore that will be a very different experience. You can roll with F-Droid etc but your choice of apps would be very limited.
Basically, I just wanted to point out that graphene is definitely working with the permission of Google and google could very well sabotage the project in a few dumb requirements.


I’ll be honest morphe has been a total nightmare for me. It works 70% of the times. 30% of the times it rewinds mid video to a random timestamp. And will do that in a loop.
In my experience that has been the very worse app I used on Android for YT.
To be fair it’s not really their fault if YT is constantly trying to disrupt their app.


Exactly, the fact this dude at Krafton can sign 250 million dollars deals but is also dumb enough to think a ChatGPT lawyer knows better than his own lawyers… It goes to show that many powerful people were just lucky or inherited their wealth but are definitely not successful because they are smart.


A bold lie.
As if paywall removers are “universal”.


Just like gun control was the topic I would purposefully avoid on reddit, AI and LLM are the new forbidden subject here.


Archive.today owner looks like a clown.
I had no idea they were doing all kinds of nefarious shit like that.


This is a conversation about the issue of proprietary formats in our institutions.
And I think PDF is a problem in that regard. It’s not fully open and the format still can break. Forms in particular are still very problematics. Forms are very useful in institutions…


* Only if you dont use the many still proprietary extensions of PDF I suppose.
Anyway I’m not sure following the Adobe standard in our institutions is the smartest move.


“Don’t use that proprietary format ! Use PDF instead !”
PDF is also an issue.
I guess it depends.
For you it might be a blessing. For someone that isn’t comfortable with computers in general that may be very intimidating.
Also this process of going full linux might takes years.
And finally a job is a little more than the tools provided. I worked on linux system in said public administrations and they suffer almost always from very very limited budgets. The cyber security culture is almost non existent. The fear of change is prevalent everywhere. Leadership changes his mind all the time for major IT projects.
So it’s absolutely not rosy.
So for now this is the first step toward sovereignty and much less expensive systems but this will be a very painful process.
