You should install Signal as Flatpak. It should be available through the app store if you are on Mint. Otherwise see https://flathub.org/en/apps/org.signal.Signal

Do not consult companies websites for how to install on Linux if you can avoid it, they will nearly always break your setup. Just head for the app store and click the big green button.

They’re not allowed to collect data as long as the “yes” button hasn’t been clicked. Now, in practice, implementation correctness may vary

FYI, subliminal messages, as in “messages that you can’t see but your subconscious will be affected by” are not a thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subliminal_stimuli

I remember watching a science show where someone wanted to demonstrate them, blatantly failed, tried again, failed again, called a psychologist to try better, and failed again. At the end the guy excused himself and said that it must surely be working for everyone but him, for some reason. Except no one actually managed to get it working, the guy who invented the concept later admitted he faked the result.

The developers of what? Is this a project to get Linux running on iPhones?

What did XP do? I’ve never heard someone complain about it

Looking at the specs, I would guess it is

You can setup a Ventoy USB stick if you want to try multiple options

WHO DOWNVOTED THIS JESUS CHRIST

Looking at the news I would guess American houses are buit mostly out of loaded firerarms coddled together by zipties. And oversized fridges.

No? I just said it would be nicer if you precised the name of the distro when you have an issue. This way I’m less likely to recommand an unstable distro. That’s it.

You obviously can’t be expected to know what distro is stable or not, I don’t either

You should give the name of the distro rather than just say modern. Ubuntu is “modern” and they broke the auto-updates for everyone some months ago. It’s more about stability than modernity

It’s similar in that it has an application launcher at the bottom, a windows-like start menu, and aims to be simple.

Zorin has a modern UI where Mint is more windows-7-ish. They don’t have the same file explorer, settings app, app store, generally the core apps are different.

Look they’re quite different, it’s hard to make a full comparison, just run a Mint .iso in gnome-boxes if you’re curious.

If he did, it wouldn’t make things any better. Don’t even give them the idea. “Look, I have nothing to fear from the cops because I agree with the cops, be like me, and nothing bad will happen”

Aren’t they getting, like, at least a tiny bit of backlash for this shit?

The way the jump instant-triggers when hitting the corners of a block while pressing space feels really bad.

Overall I got used to the rest. I actually like that it’s buggy, feels more like the Minecraft I used to play, half-broken but promising

Do you actually feel your computer slow down? I would guess your 20 unused tabs would get swapped out and the rest should run relatively fine

"c'mon I just checked that three lines ago"

Not really. The back cover for the FP3 is held in place by a few plastic clips, if you open it too much (like, 20 times?) they start breaking.

There is an organized effort for Fairphone. Luca Weiss here is the Fairphone-employed drivers mainliner. It’s awesome.

(however there is no public deadline on anything afaik)

Ah, that’s because Ubuntu Touch uses Android’s kernel. I don’t know if this should count as “Linux compatible”

Easterly said that if cybercrime was a country, it would be the third biggest in the world, just behind the US and China.
