Linux@lemmy.ml•This Week in Plasma: new year, new accessibility features!
4·7 days agoBased on the actual bug report, because the people working on this are volunteers and the workaround is simple.
If you think fixing bugs like these is a worthwhile endeavour, chip in some money or volunteer. There are many ways for people volunteer that aren’t writing code, so if you aren’t a software developer don’t let that discourage you.

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft's Satya Nadella wants you to stop saying AI "slop" in 2026English

This take is so cold it could make solid helium.
(I agree FWIW)
Shhhh no choose, only Kubuntu.
Yep. No one killer feature. Just a flood of tiny things that make my life better.
My phone has a “hold for me” option 🤷🏻

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Op doesn't have time for interviews
3·15 days agoI once had an interviewer ask me what happens when you type a domain into your browser and hit enter. “Use as much detail as you want.”
Well, I did…
“For the sake of brevity, I’ll start when the user presses the Enter key. As the key goes down, it makes two contacts connect, passing a current…”

Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•When you have to checkout the master branch
5·1 month agoI think OP is talking about the fact that most new projects use “main” now, so “master” likely indicates an older project.

Technology@beehaw.org•Microsoft has a problem: nobody wants to buy or use its shoddy AI products — as Google's AI growth begins to outpace Copilot products
2·1 month agoYeah there truly is no comparison to Excel (derogatory).
(I’m just bitter because of VBA okay?)
…that’s not what they’re doing though?
Those patches get either pulled from upstream or built in-house and shared to upstream. Just like in Debian, and just like in the regular Ubuntu releases, the package is based on some upstream version and then the deb packaging applies the patch sets as listed in the diff tarball.
Here’s what the latest kernel for Ubuntu 26.04 look like: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/6.17.0-6.6
Those same tarballs are available for any Ubuntu package by running
apt source <pkg>as long as you’ve configured the matchingdeb-srcrepositories.
You mean things like cloud-init, juju, a ton of work they do directly upstream on openstack, hardware certifications (which include things like getting vendors to upstream their drivers into the mainline kernel — something even Google has struggled with for Android), and making it more feasible for more companies to run Linux by providing the sort of long-term support that the community just doesn’t prioritise?



Like that, but my computer does it for me automatically.
