Well, one of the alternatives is what ID Software used to do, where they would sell the game for a period of time and then open source the code Once sales dropped off.

Super Tux Kart is actually great. Open Arena is just Quake 3 with original art. IMO Open Arena is criminally underrated
The open sourcing of the quake engine is where a lot of modern engines got their roots.
Lol “art”
I staunchly disagree with this. If a government actually cared about power consumption, they would subsidize the development of better X86 to arm translation layers so we can move to more power efficient processors.
There’s actually a lot we could do in order to reduce our energy consumption.
Another step I would take is completely outlawing the sale of advertisements to data brokers. There are so many resources that go to pumping out advertisements from servers, and it really just is not beneficial to anybody except for the companies.
I know this would not be popular among a lot of developers, but for certain applications, I would also curb planned obsolescence by creating a minimum viable processor and graphics requirement for certain applications. A lot of the times, the kinds of applications we use just don’t need as much power as they’re guzzling We need to end the feature creep.
Its funny how familiarity works. I think doing simple stuff in windows in infuriating now that im used yo Linux.
LQXT. Its both good looking and lightning fast.
I find it quite ethical. Its fastGPT protocol gives hyperlinks too all of it sources used. Its like AI without thw stealing.
As long as you aren’t beholden to specific software, it is becoming increasingly pleasant to use the Linux ecosystem.
Frankly, I never understood why businesses were invested in the office suite anyway. Considering there are so many good open source alternatives.
The only pain point in it’s getting a little better is graphic design.
Who said anything about giving money to Adobe? Yarg.
As a graphic designer, you don’t really have much of a choice, unless you’re independent.
All it’s missing from me are anti-cheat games and Adobe products.
Ironically im still downvoted despite you clearing this up… sigh
Nah Im not giving a cent to Linus Sebastian until he releases the sexual harassment investigation results he lied about releasing.
I like how Kagis search AI works. It gives a link to all of the sources it scraped from.
You don’t have to type in the website?
Which also goes to my oldness argument. Their software is locked, proprietary, and too ingrained Intl the System.
Alterable Desktop Environments, alternative stores, removing integrated packages such as the app store, installable on non Apple hardware, whether arm or x86.
Open air drop as a standard would help too
IMO even windows is too closed for my taste.
The hardware is rarely ever comparable. You show me a like for like hardware comparison, and Mac will always be more expensive with fewer upgrade paths.
Ive quite enjoyed the KDE NordVPN plasmoid. Visually integrates it into the taskbar.
It’s also worth noting that too many people put out way too much imagery of themselves online. People have got to start expecting that anything you put out in the public domain becomes public domain.
