Will Gaza even be habitable in 50 years after a Harris presidency? She has not vaguely aligned herself with current policy, she has pledged to maintain current rates of weapons shipments and support Israel to the hilt in their genocide. Any talk of ceasefire from Biden or Harris is meaningless because 1) they redefined ceasefire in their messaging to mean a hostage exchange 2) they are actively maintaining the military capabilities of Israel and therefore materially opposing ceasefire. Biden and Harris both CHOOSE not to make a call and end this genocide. They are as complicit as Netanyahu and exactly as dangerous as Trump

Random applications that use the play integrity API won’t work on any third party OSes or ROMs. For example I tried to install some Intuit app on my GOS Pixel a while back (credit karma I think?) and it didn’t work at all

Yes sanction yourself that’ll help you become the imperial hegemon again lmao

Mostly LibreWolf, but I’ve been enjoying Zen Browser recently. It’s based on Firefox but with lots of cool extra functionality baked in. It is still in alpha though and I’ve experienced some bugs, including it crashing my whole system a couple of times, but it’s very promising

Recently, uBlue. It’s more a family of fedora atomic images but it has taken the pain out of immutability for me. I was using Fedora silver blue and later Sericea a while back, but installing codecs from RPMfusion on it never worked properly and my hw acceleration was always broken. I was on NixOS for a while but had sporadic problems that come with NixOS not using an FHS structure. But uBlue just works. Hardware acceleration works out of the box, and I can easily create custom images with BlueBuild. It’s a very nice ecosystem to create a stable, secure, complete base system. And I run nix on top of it for user packages and home-manager to get all the benefits of both worlds

Check out Wayblue, they make some custom universal blue images based off fedora silverblue which includes a hyprland image. I’m running a modified way blue image myself these days and loving it. Technically it’s a secureblue image based on a way blue image but yeah same difference

Was using NixOS but just could not deal with lack of FHS compatibility. Even the workarounds like nix-ld and nix-alien didn’t help with some key scripts I needed to run for secure network verification stuff. So I just migrated to this plus nix/home-manager for my application management

If it’s something that will be mostly interacted with over CLI then kebab case. If GUI then spaces

There is a fully Rust based Unix-like OS out there, it’s called Redox and it’s very cool

Have you tried yabai or amethyst? Both really solid macOS tilers

Extremely dependent on a number of factors, mostly hardware and configuration. I had a Thinkpad T480 and on a stock fedora install it definitely died faster than W10, but after setting up TLP and Powertop I squeezed ~2 more hours of use out of it than Windows could manage. Ditto for my framework 13, I get all day battery life on NixOS but when I’ve tested windows on it I lose a few hours immediately

What’s the name of that robot ipod dog I loved that thing

In other words use a UPS 👍
