Then likely you can ignore it, or configure GNOME notifications to not display it to you. You could also seek help in NixOS related forums or continue trying to replicate the issue.

Really strange… Was there any pattern you could discern from the occurrences?
-l Make bash act as if it had been invoked as a login shell (see INVOCATION below).
--login Equivalent to -l.
This is an excerpt from the bash manpage. So likely no, this isn’t a bad thing and this is just GNOME sourcing your environment variables. You need to tell us how frequent these notification are and when they happen (also what GNOME version you’re using as well as which distribution you are using). We can’t help you if you don’t provide that.
Correction: POP!_OS has their own APT deb farm that has the latest hardware stack. This includes the proprietary 535 nvidia driver and later as well as the kernel and mesa.
This is part of the history of the distribution as it was made to support system76’s latest hardware lineup on top of an Ubuntu base.
Nouveau is the libre driver for Nvidia on GNU/Linux with Nvidia slowly segregating their proprietary driver into a firmware blob.
We should open our own YouTube, with blackjack… and hookers! That’ll show those google guys.
I’m glad you’re pleased with yourself.
A loss for all the defenestration fans out there.
It peaked in 1618 in Prague castle.
Thanks for responding, enforced material hardship under a capitalist class will limit you from contributing to free software. And I know retrospectively that I shouldn’t of been so antagonistic.
I should have been more tactful, I am a university student who’s not looking to go into software development and come from a bangladeshi working class immigrant background (second gen), so your remarks about needing to sell your labour are undeniable from me. I don’t want to attack you but I want to push back on the narrative you’ve told me.
My main point was that there does not need to exist a nuance between “the people who believe all software should be libre” and the people who believe more or less the same thing but are coerced into creating nonfree software. We are both victims here of the same system.
I do not agree with dual licensing or “shareware.” But if that’s what you use then I can’t change that for you. We likely don’t even disagree on much past that.
What I do want to push back on is the idea that libre software is undermined at all by our own material realities, the opposite is true. My point with the James Gosling comment is that libre software does not claim anything other than the rights of computer users. It doesn’t give us a blueprint of how to effect this system nor should it. Everyone should have equal rignts to computer science. Capitalism, thus, is incompatible with this ideal. We agree on this and this doesn’t make you any more or any less of an adherent for free software and vice versa for me.
Non-software engineers can perpetuate nonfree software as well. I am not immune to this.
Should all software be libre? The answer is yes from both of us. There doesn’t need to be a caveat.
I think it’s an instance of self-deprecating humor. Misogyny does affect queer men as well.
But there’s also people who are just gross and take it to heart (to the point of sexual harassment). It doesn’t really matter if you’re the titled “gay friend” as long as the friend group is for queer liberation (no TERFs) and it’s not some weird chaser mentality where the intrigue is objectifying queer men’s bodies and sexuality.
Youtube invites the user to use nonfree javascript, so there’s no telling when their engineers will get the upper hand (it seems that they already have). The only sustainable solution is to drop youtube entirely or support a libre frontend…
And also to educate everyone you can on libre software philosophy so they know to reject the next iteration of this injustice instead of waiting for the bruises to appear.
I became a tankie to get a free tank but no tank came in the mail.
So now I’m not a tankie but still have no tank. Time for a “why I ‘left’ the left” post.
It’s pretty unfortunate, flatpak is the only thing that sandboxes .mozilla/
out of the home directory because the folks at mozilla will not patch in XDG desktop specifications.
Same thing with thunderbird as well.
I always license my personal projects as free for whoever wants to use it free and wants to contribute back. It’s never free for commercial entities though because screw them profiting off of my free labour.
If you license your software in a way that has exceptions for certain groups, that license is not a libre software license. If I’m reading this correctly, you just have proprietary software. Corporations cannot be treated differently than individuals, it violates the GPLv3 and other free software licenses recognized by the FSF. Also shame on you for saying “free labour.” Creating free software is not tied to “getting free labour,” your labour was not gratis.
Doesn’t mean I don’t believe all software should be free, but in how society today is I wouldn’t be able to pay for the means to sustain myself and those close to me.
And then:
Or is there some nuance that could be applied if I responded with both wanting all software up be FOSS, but also that I need to have the means to support those around me.
If the only way to obtain a good standard of living is to restrict people’s freedom and hoard software, than the society itself is broken and unsustainable. But of course, your use of “society” is a way (intentionally or not) to deflect from the ongoing robbery of computer science leadered by the most parastic and compulsive hoarders and control freaks in your country.
This isn’t the “oh so mature” gotcha moment. Nor is the “nuance” you suppose meaningful. James Gosling (the java inventor and one of the principal engineers at Amazon) makes the same tired cliché “argument.”. A mega millionaire gives the same “feed my kids” that you do.
Yes, you are lost. You’ve admitted to creating nonfree software and parrot talking points used to derail the discussion to your own emotions (which are also by and large a product of nonfree anti-sharing culture being the default).
The flatpak is also broken for me when I try to print. So it isn’t just you.
No?? Racism would be saying “Han people are inherently ugly because they have squinty eyes.” That’s not at all similar to what I said. What I did was I identified a behavioral pattern amongst a group of people from a shared cultural group, based on my own experiences, friends experiences, that match existing stereotypes about said group; which while not being sufficient to dictate an absolute conclusion, should at least justify having the desire to inquire about such behavior no? Especially since I am asking a community where said ethnic group has a positive reception, which should imply I am trying to learn instead of reinforcing prejudices in an echo chamber, I seriously don’t see how my question can be perceived as anything more than somewhat insensitive in delivery.
This is such a roller-coaster of a paragraph to read. But yes:
“Mannerisms and emotional intelligence of the average person.”
Comes off as just a tiny bit insensitive to this English speaking comm, maybe even a bit infantalizing. Cultural stereotypes are like wet sand. You can provide any sort of “meta-historical” explanation for why the “average person” is like that and be pleased with yourself. I understand if that wasn’t your intention, but it was not a good way to frame your question, nor was your reply.
GNU Jami (pronounced Guh-nu Ya-mi) is a peer-to-peer cross-platform messaging and VOIP application. It uses an API called the Jami Distributed Network, meaning that the Jami network has no single point of failure. If you’re familiar with TOR you’ll understand where this is coming from.
Best part is that Jami is a GNU package; it will always be free/libre software or else Richard M. Stallman perself will break the kneecaps of every developer on the project /half-joke.
I usually just ask them if they believe that all software should be libre. If they say some bs about people needing to get paid then it’s safe to say you’ve lost them.

POP!_OS is amazing. It started out as a way for System76 to create an Ubuntu operating system image that had all the latest packages that they would need for their hardware but then grew into something much bigger. They have a plan for Wayland with cosmic-epoch
and they ship the latest kernel (6.4.6 as of writing) and latest Mesa. It’s solely responsible for killing my distro hopping (as well as having GNU Guix and Flatpak).
