snapchat changed like facebook: same slightly prettied-up ui and still poor privacy practices. it's like painting a pile of poo golden and reselling it as new.
my life perfectly described: love, death and robots

@absturztaube @hermlon @koyu But Final Cut Pro is for round 400 Euro to buy I don‘t list Compressor and Motion which are extra to buy.

@absturztaube @koyu this is mostly incredebly powertooly software. And to compare GIMP with Photoshop, I mean, c'mon.
GIMP can't go two steps without rasterizing or merging layers.
Sure, that article is a polemic. But I still agree with the last paragraph. If you can't fix a broken dpkg run or purge kernels off your /boot before space runs out or figure out why your file manager suddenly stops automounting USB drives, you're probably better off with the guardrails heavily QA'd UX designer worked on this mainstream solution.

That's actually a valid point there.

> 2. Software Updates
we have packet-managers. if you want to update every software on windows you'll have to run different update programs to do so...
and no, linux doesn't lag behind: in my exp, sec-patches mostly take 2-3 days on average after the vuln is made public to rollout. how long did it take again for m$ to patch eternal blue?!
