I've been happy with Qwant lately, they have their own index so using them doesn't support the Google + Bing hegemony. They're also EU based and regulated by the gdpr.

Is that the case for the AMD boards as well?

Considering the cost cap and the number of cars Checo puts through the shredder, they may not have a choice

Removing 3rd party kernel access will probably also make cheating harder. Kernel anticheat is necessary largely in part due to cheat software using exploits in the 3rd party extension system to get kernel privileges itself and evade user mode anticheat.

Played it for a handful of hours, it's unfortunately at it's best when you're rolling the enemy team or being rolled. Matches where the teams are even easily drag out into a 1+ hour slog. I did like the feature that integrates build guides into the ui.

Image display is an important feature for me. If konsole supported it, I'd just use that. If I'm on a gnome system I'll pretty much always change the terminal because gnome terminal has a lot of issues with font rendering that I find annoying

A union wouldn't actually help in this case since MS laid everyone off anyway. They only cared about keeping the IP and wouldn't have really cared about striking workers. Antitrust laws are supposed to stop industry consolidation due to a large competitor buying a smaller one, but courts have been doing their best to make them unenforceable.

I used to prefer Gnome before the KDE 6 update due to the rough edges in KDE. After KDE 6 came out I've tried it again, and it's incredible. The team has spent a lot of time on polish for this major release and it allows KDE's suite of more fully featured applications to shine. GNOME apps like gedit, nautilus, and gnome terminal tend to provide the minimum level of functionality, whereas KDE's applications feel like they're trying to work for power users. Kate goes as far as supporting the LSP for code autocompletion. KDE's desktop is much more customizable as well, so you don't really need extensions to get the functionality you'd be looking for in GNOME, stuff like the application launcher are built in. KDE connect is a really useful application you can install on your phone to get file transfers and notification sharing, among other things, between your phone and computer while connect to the same local network. Performance wise they seem pretty equal, even on older hardware, but KDE might have a bit of an edge in terms of RAM usage, YMMV depending on how you customize the desktop. The one thing I miss about GNOME is their "start menu" experience, I haven't found a way to replicate that in KDE, but I haven't looked very hard either. Overall I wouldn't hesitate recommending KDE, plasma 6 makes me actually feel like the Linux desktop is ready for mainstream.

Phone numbers are no longer required iirc

You can't e2e the to and from headers in an email. that's a problem with the protocol, not with proton. I'd assume the subject line falls into a similar bucket, because mailservers probably want to use it to filter spam

The fediverse could pose a threat to the market dominance of the Facebook platform and instagram, as there are applications that aim to be direct competitors (frendica, plemora, pixelfed) already in the fediverse. If the fediverse grows, there will be no reason for people to stay on Meta's platforms without them reducing advertisement and increasing user privacy, which is obviously not something they want to do.

It is collusion. Information like occupancy and operating costs are shared with the software service to determine the "fair" rent rate. The software takes into account these metrics from many different management companies. If rental management companies were to share this info with eachother directly in order to set pricing, that would constitute an antitrust violation. All the software does is turn the trust into a shell game that's more difficult to prosecute.

 

I apologize if this isn't the right community to post feature suggestions.

I've seen a lot of posts/comments with people complaining about the community search function in lemmy/jerboa/mlem with people replying with a link to the lemmyverse community search. It would be helpful for new users if the lemmyverse search was integrated somehow. Right now I think the difficulty in discovering the communities you're looking for is the biggest barrier to entry for lemmy.
