For transfers between systems you own yes, but when grabbing a Linux iso from a public server FTP works fine.

For years Firefox allowed you to crawl FTP sites natively.

I hope to god one day the developers at Mozilla finally get tired of this shit and fork everything under a new org.

Fuck off with more services and give me my integrated FTP client back. No one who uses Mozilla software wants more cloud shit or online services from Mozilla.

What we need to see is a major studio pushing for Linux like valve has been doing.

That's it. That's literally what makes it special. You, me, and half the fediverse probably aren't going to use steam os unless maybe we buy a steam deck.

The fact that there's a multi-billion dollar company throwing money at both it and proton is what makes steam os special. Its what's going to give Linux a unified brand name that every machine can put on their case badge.

Normal people and the companies that sell them computers need that unified brand name. Why on gods green earth, I don't fucking know, but I know that they do. Its how you get them to use shit.

Once valve drops better nvidia support into the kernel, and steamos starts coming pre-loaded on laptops and pre-built desktops it's over for their consumer division.

Funnily enough I noticed that banggood has some decent deals if ur willing to wait for the boat to bring it over.

Congratulations on using 3 entire paragraphs to say absolutely nothing useful.

This reads like someone who's never talked to an actual leftist in real life. Please go touch grass.

No I don't think anyone is going to call a woman a sexist for calling a man a cunt.

Certainly not as much as they'd call her ableist for making fun of his wheelchair.

'Useless sniveling little cunt'

That's literally all it'd take.

You don't have to be ableist to be insulting.

Good I hope chrome does get fucking run into the ground.

Maybe then chromium can have some actual independence and spread its wings.

I like to run ufw on all my machines but I'm also a tinfoil-hat wearing wacko who believes that no computer should ever really be trusted. Just trusted enough to do specific tasks.

If someone somehow busts into one of my VLANs, at least the other machines on that net will still have some sort of protection.
