  • I mean I would think twice about using them as a single source for search, the same as I would think twice about using Google as a single source. That's why I prefer to use an aggregator.

  • Well I'm not a fan of Brave or Google as companies for individual reasons, look up about Brave's CEO for example.

    I prefer to use an aggregator so at the moment I'm using searxng; the main downside I've found is that instances tend to get blocked from indexes eventually so you do have to move around a bit.

  • No data I'm afraid but it just doesn't ring true to me, unless there are vast regional differences. It sticks out to me as much as if you'd said that Bing is the largest search engine; I've barely heard of Apple email but almost everyone I know uses Gmail except me, including Apple users I know.

  • I guess I'm biased because when I first started using Linux some 20 years ago it was considered user friendly for the time. Plus I must have used it hundreds of times since I had a previous job which involved setting up a lot of CentOS servers, which could have blinded me to the problems. Still, I think it's reassuring to do everything from a central overview page for your configuration choices, takes away a bit of self-doubt. I'm not complaining though, as long as the new one does the job.

    Fedora Linux 42 released

    What’s new?

    We’ve promoted our KDE Plasma Desktop offering to “Edition” status. The Fedora KDE team has been hard at work making sure bugs get fixed and everything is polished just so. We’re confident that this can stand along our other amazing flagship offerings.

    I know the naming is a bit confusing, with GNOME-powered “Workstation” using a generic label while KDE Plasma Desktop has the tech right in the name. We’ll get that figured out eventually. If you don’t know where to start, don’t panic. Pick one and see how it goes. They’re both excellent desktop environments with great upstream communities, and the same Fedora system underneath it all.

    We also have a new alternative desktop choice: COSMIC. This is a modern, written-all-in-Rust desktop environment from our friends over at System 76.

    Perhaps most excitingly, we have a new installation interface! The previous UI was design

  • Just upgraded. I think I must have been the only person in the world to like the old Fedora installation UI but everyone complained about it so it must be good news that it's gone, as long as I don't hate the new one.

  • Bomb Sweeper. I've not actually played much Game & Watch since back in the day, so this is mostly from childhood memory and I have no idea how well it stands up but that was my favourite at the time and it's nostalgia. It's a multi-screen but the top screen was mostly cosmetic, you had to navigate some kind of maze on the bottom screen. I've still got it, I should dig it out some time.

  • I don't think either were perfect designs, they were both pioneering and can be respected for that, neither were a "mess". At the time I personally preferred the feel of the N64's analog stick since it was directionally biased in 8 directions which works better for games of the time, and met expectations of the time. My main problem with the DualShock is that they stuck with it while they should have, in my opinion, swapped the left stick with the d-pad for the PS2 onwards.
