Hello there!
I’m also @savvywolf@furry.engineer , and I have a website at https://www.savagewolf.org .

Apple devices make sense - how else are you going to deal with the overheating problems?
Source Code Pro gang!
Ah yes, Brexit.

Seriously though, I just use Firefox. LibreWolf is basically Firefox with stricter defaults, and over the years I’ve already tweaked Firefox to use all the privacy features anyway.
I know there’s some extra sauce implemented in LibreWolf that Firefox lacks, but that stuff seems like too much of a compromise for me (like canvas fingerprinting).
Plus, I think orange looks nicer in my window list than blue.
I also don’t use tor or a vpn unless I can’t access anything otherwise. I guess I don’t really see the need to, since I don’t think I’m doing anything that’ll draw the government’s attention.
Bold of you to assume that I can’t be stressed while laying in bed.
Recently turned 30, and am super stressing out about growing physically older, missed opportunities, wasted time and starting things late (yes, yes, I know it’s an unhealthy mindset). The amount of people that keep dismissing my feelings because “30 isn’t that old” is frustrating.
“We’re the harem inspectors.”
Oh, hah. For some reason I assumed that the point of the comic was that the aliens heard “run for your life” and took that literally, thus moving to a pedestrian healthy city or something.
Technically that would mean that one copy of the file is no longer updated when the other is.
You should consider using ln bkp.tar.gz bkp2.tar.gz
instead.

There’s also https://e926.net/ , which automatically filters out the adult stuff.
I’m cool with Obsidian because everything is just a bunch of Markdown files. If they go off into the deep end then I can just switch to VScodium or some random text editor.
Vendor lockin is the real problem with proprietary software.
Hire that frog.
Used them to debug a problem. Forgot to remove them. Wondered why I ran out of disk space a few weeks later.
Programs running graphically (Firefox, your file browser, etc.) need a way to tell the system “draw these pixels here”. That’s what the display server does; it takes all these applications, works out where their windows are and manages that pixel data.
XOrg has historically been the display server in common use, but it’s very old and very cobbled together. It generally struggles with “modern” things that must people expect today. Multimonitor setups, vsync, hdr and all that. They work, but support is hacked together and brittle.
Wayland is a replacement for XOrg that was designed from scratch to fix a lot of these issues. But it’s been an uphill battle because XOrg is the final boss of legacy codebases.
tl;dr They’re both software that manages drawing pixels from applications to the display.
Realistically, what are you expecting? If Valve suddenly decided tomorrow to release all of their source code on Github, all you’d get is a big blob of source code that is purpose built for Valve themselves and not really modular. They’d have so much technical debt and auditing requirements that it’d probably be easier to start from scratch, which I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect them to do.
And honestly, nothing closed source that Steam does is really novel enough to warrant being open source. The value of Steam comes from its ecosystem and playerbase, as well as the backing of Valve themselves. That’s not something that an open source Steam server or client would allow people to compete with.
I would like them to release an open source command line tool for downloading, launching and DRM-validating-ing games though. That seems reasonable for people who don’t want to run the full client and want something like Heroic or Lutris to be able to hook into.
We’d all like Steam to be open source, but that’s not going to happen for a number of reasons. So I guess you could say that a core part of the OS is proprietary, if you wanted.
We like Valve because they are actually contributing to open source projects, unlike Microsoft who say they love open source but don’t do anything to support it.
Also, the Steam Deck is really nice, and less locked down than “Windows” hardware.
Hasn’t Debian relaxed its stance and now allows you to fairly easily use nonfree software?
