why dont we just put uefi on phones

among us

wilma balls fit in yo mouth hey gottem

what we really need on phones and by extension arm devices is a unified bootloader, something akin to a bios or uefi (which btw already exists on arm but manufacturers are choosing to not go with it for some reason)

homer? i hardly know 'er

do plugins that run on wine count?

They are extremely similar to the point that I think they are edging

try using pcem or other kinds of virtualisation

cant you just run the installer with wine which is like 2000% easier?

that’s just extra friction, with UIs you can explore and figure out at a glance roughly what a button will do

I disagree. It can be a useful learning point for both parties, especially if you have differing opinions and have good points for them.

i am of the opinion that applications on linux need some work, flatpak would be perfect for this however it doesn’t have a good user friendly permissions system, it’s a pain in the ass to install applications on non-system drives (which is a much bigger pain for native packages btw) and wine needs to be more user friendly in terms of prefix management, yes we have lutris and bottles but those feel like superglue to wine itself, im genuinely on the verge of learning C and doing all of this myself since that’s most of what’s holding me back from linux

that is unless you’re running disk encryption, in which case your data (and in most cases your OS) is safe from unauthorized access, although there is not much to stop them just wiping it or running their own os on it lol

i was surprised that this was even attempted, but i guess someone would eventually try to

i believe fedora has this by default

hey windows aero looked amazing, especially for its time, shame we dont get that option on modern windows but hey at least we’re getting closer to replicating it on linux

i was going to wait a day or two to see if it came back but it looks like it’s still down, made this alt on feddit like 2 minutes ago hoping for vlemmy to come back lol

dammit now im gonna have to resubscribe to like 50 communties
