Debian Testing. It isn’t “recommended” but it works fine.

Obviously if you want AUR you need an Arch variant, in which case just pick Arch.

Edit: I needed the why, it’s up to date enough for me and I know apt well.

Looking around online, further rumors seem to lean towards it being a Federation origin film.

That would put us in ENT era, but I don’t see them following the existing canon. Maybe following a non-Enterprise ship to recruit an early but non-founding planet. The origin in this case being about how the Federation first expanded.

The other option could be picking up right after First Contact. How mankind adapts to learning about the Vulcans.

I just don’t see either of those films getting greenlit.

If Notepad is getting AI text editing then it’s as good as dead too.

Which is sorta the problem with speculation in these threads. We can say “Trump said X”, but really his decisions are based on the number of hamburgers he had that afternoon or which voice whispered in his ear last. We only have wild speculation.

Diablo 2 also had an expansion… and balance patches… But I agree.

I wouldn’t classify every monolingual person as trapped in an echo chamber

Simply being something isn’t an echo chamber, you have to have a thought or opinion being shared by the group. If every person you interact with only speaks one language, and they all share that one language is the best method of communication, that’s an echo chamber.

Use social media how you like

I agree. Although it is useful to be aware of your own biases.

the solution to echo chambers is going outside and touching grass not forcing yourself to interact with every community on the internet.

Assuming you don’t mean literally “touch grass”, the solution is seeking out opinions/thoughts outside of your echo chamber. That doesn’t necessarily mean forcing yourself to interact with terrible communities, but being aware and understanding (but not agreeing with) them.

Although I again refer to using social media how you like is fine. No one needs to be exposed to certain communities. It’s not wrong or lazy or bad to ignore certain communities or viewpoints, especially toxic ones. However you should be aware that they exist and it can be helpful, if you choose, to understand where they come from.

As a harmless example, if you don’t like brussel sprouts and none of your friends like brussel sprouts, it may benefit you to try brussel sprouts or to seek out and talk to or read about people who like brussel sprouts. You can still at the end of the day dislike brussel sprouts. You don’t have to change your opinion. But now your opinion is more well rounded.

Sure, but my first month of Lemmy was via the web. I still use Mastodon on the web (no app). Whenever I find myself on Reddit (via search) it’s web only. If someone sends me a random YouTube link, I open it in the web. On the off chance someone sends me a random TikTok link, web only.

Again I don’t use any of these apps, but if someone sends me a loops link and it says install the app, I’ll just ignore it.

Honestly that’s great news, but wouldn’t a web version have made wayyyyyyy more sense?

So far, there is only some user settings accessible in the web interface. I don’t have an iPhone, hence I cannot say for their app. The android app will come later, apparently.

I don’t give a shit about TikTok or short form video but legitimately how is this expected to succeed with these limitations? Clearly people like this stuff but can a fediverse service really afford to be iPhone only? This truly seems doomed to fail.

I have lots of shower thoughts, usually it’s what to do next in the D&D campaign I’m running. I could post them, but I don’t think that’s the spirit of the community.

We’re also a sit outside house. Luckily October is pretty warm nowadays (wait…)

Sure it isn’t a perfect comparison, but the idea is the same.

I dunno, asking a friend is the right thing to do. Demanding things is how I ended up with a body in the first place.

Comcast introduced the “Xfinity” branding in 2010. I still call refer to it as “Comcast”. Any conversation I have where an ISP comes up, the word “Comcast” is used. If someone says “Xfinity”, they often follow it up with “you know, Comcast”.

Now that’s a VERY clear brand change.

The name “X” is a VERY confusing brand change. It will likely be called Twitter forever. In fact at some point Musk will sell or give up on “X” and I guarantee within a year the new owner will change the name back to Twitter.

we can get random experts chiming in about interesting topics

Lol we have that now… just be sure to phrase your question in the form of a Linux distro.

But to be serious I do think we’re heading that way, but it’s going to take a long time, likely as long as it took Reddit (if not longer).

It’s not technically what you mean, but during the first Doctor Strange film he gets injured and teleports himself to a Hospital. I seem to recall he gives a diagnosis of himself to Christine Palmer while he is in his spirit form, since his body is dying.

I always knew Sakurai worked hard to deliver high quality games, but after watching this video, it’s insane.

Creating a whole YouTube channel with 260 videos just because he had a few free months. Doing the majority (pre editing) in just a few months, scripting and recording nearly ever video in advance.

Absolutely wild.

The truth is there are SO MANY great episodes of The Simpsons. Even the current seasons have a lot to offer.

I also think that the earlier seasons get an advantage because they’re the episodes we’ve all seen dozens of times.

Obviously I won’t deny that the earlier seasons have 10/10 episodes. Maybe there are fewer 10/10 as you go along, but even a “bad” episode will have some great jokes in it.

In fact the “I’m a sign, not a cop” meme/macro, that’s a season 20 episode.

So first off I appreciate your “about:config” dump, that is helpful.

However, having ONLY that dump makes it difficult to actually diagnose your issue. It would be helpful to have an idea of what fails.

• Are you only unable to join meetings?
• Can you create meetings?
• Only audio?
• Only video?
• Are there any error messages?
• Are there any messages at all on screen?
• Are there errors in the JavaScript console?
• If there are a lot, can you compare it against the working vanilla version and see where the errors are unique/start to differ?
• When did this issue start to happen? (It worked a week ago, but not now?)
• Is your config based off a guide online?

Second, you have “media.peerconnection.enabled” set to “false”. That setting controls WebRTC. Google Meet uses WebRTC. If I set that value to false my Google Meet meetings fail to load, it just stays stuck at the joining meeting phase.

So maybe that’s your culprit. Of course I would expect if you’ve had this set for a long time I would have expected it to fail for a long time. Also both alternatives you mentioned use WebRTC, so I would expect those to fail with that setting disabled.

Of course if it used to work with that disabled then it’s possible Google Meet changed and had a fallback no longer in use or something else.

As an aside, I understand that WebRTC has (had?) issues leaking local IP addresses while connected to a VPN. So I understand why you might have it disabled.

in my hardened config firefox browser

The only conclusion I can draw is that google is so desperate for my data that they refuse to service me unless I give them this.

What is your config? It’s possible you’ve got things configured in an unexpected, but valid, way that causes Google Meet to fail.

How does it fail? Are there errors in the console?

You’re immediately assuming malice, but it may simply be a mistake (Google’s or yours).
