None of these options seem likely to create anything better than what we have now.
On the upshot, Firefox is going to see a resurgence. Hey, maybe Mozilla buys it?
Anyway Bethesda is really good about this type of thing, they give away some of their of old stuff (Arena and Daggerfall) for free-as-in-beer and considering their cooperation with modders for nearly every title they release I don't think I've ever seen them get ornery over a remake.
Sfall has been around a long time too. I wouldn't worry.
Does this do anything that existing solutions (OSMC, LibreELEC, Jellyfin MPV Shim) don't? From reading the source blog post it doesn't look like it. HDMI CEC, navigation without a mouse and keyboard (an airmouse is not a viable solution imo, at least use a Flirc), casting... all can be had better elsewhere with smaller, cheaper, quieter, more discrete hardware with lower power consumption.
> The mom and daughter have been debating how to proceed. They offer some subscription content on another platform, but the majority of their followers were on Instagram.
This was the most eyebrow-raising out of an entire article of eyebrow-raising, questionable decisions made by that parent. WHICH other platform?
Don't put your kids on the Internet!
Running these programs on Linux would not make sense because their only purpose is to twist knobs in the Windows OS. Linux has different knobs so their functions do not apply.
Thus your restriction is self-imposed more than anything, you are effectively saying "the only thing stopping me from switching to Linux is that it's not Windows."
Between your BIOS settings and programs like cpufrequtils and CoreCtrl there are equivalents to those programs, but interacting with hardware is platform-specific. You may have to learn different programs because Linux abstracts access to your hardware differently, thus your preferred Windows-specific utilities will not have any use :D
This is in contrast to productivity applications like Adobe which could reasonably work the exact same way across platforms... if only they were cross-platform at all :(
It's easiest to use this via software like Lutris or Bottles.
Destruction of evidence is one thing, let them get nailed for that. But they weren't afraid to communicate privately and neither should we.
And we can't let the government hold these antitrust suits up as an example of "this is why we need to break encryption, so we can protect consumers from the big bad monopolies" either. I bet that'll be the narrative at some point.
For those who are still here: do any of you pay for news? If so can you share your criteria for how you determine which outlets are appropriate to support directly?
How can I ensure the news I read (or pay for) is not involved in contracting with censorial organizations like GDI?
Can't stop the signal
Was the existing system a big reason why you bought the house?
Rip it all out and install your own stuff!
Cleaned up some of the spelling and grammar and took this for my own site :)
