*GUI installer

I am also thinking of starting an open source project, and honestly, will do it on Github, because so far, GitHub does not require microphone or location access, yadayada... And the AI thing would happen anyway. Do you think Google has not used GitHub repos for training Gemini?

I am very interested in syncing the repo with a federated git server, but from what I am reading Codeberg/Forgejo still don't have federation working?

The dracut-systemdboot thing makes no sense. If you are installing Arch Linux, you have all options available? There is no "default" Arch, 😅

Some of these are getting released on streaming platforms. Disney is heavy on BTS footage of Marvel stuff, for example.

Nobody has physical media players anymore.

Sorry I don't understand your first question.

What I mean is that anyone (in fact there were projects that did this) could make an image with an installer GUI for Arch Linux that installed Arch Linux and some opinionated software like Endeavour does. But at the end you just got an easy Arch installation. What bothers me is that instead of pushing for Arch Linux's brand, Endeavour created their own, virtually wrapping Arch Linux as theirs, and I don't believe it is enough work to consider it a different distro, because it is LITERALLY ARCH with a couple of extra packages (that could be on the main repos or the AUR).

And I am saying all this as an Endeavour user myself!

This is fake. Glass is not the only material that can do wireless charging. There exist plastic phones that can wirelessly charge. In fact. Your wireless charger is very much probably plastic, not glass.

Also, my current phone (Unihertz Jelly Star) is plastic and has NFC... So it's also not related to NFC either.

A glass back is not necessary for wireless charging. There's many materials that can fit there, the glass choice is purely for "premium" feel.

First of all: it's a joke.

Second of all: no, Arch is not as easy to install, specially for someone who is looking at Manjaro as a possibility.

And believe me, I was once a Manjaro user.

And for 99% of Manjaro users, what they really wanted was Arch with an installer. Which is what Endeavour OS is. (Although I'll never understand why Endeavour people didn't just develop the tools FOR Arch instead of wrapping it all up as their own).

AI in web search is not going anywhere. Deal with it.

This force is unstoppable, whether you like it or not. So you better spend your time adapting.

Well, 20 years ago you didn't need a computer but now it is virtually ridiculous if you don't have one in your pocket.

Also you are not using a virtual assistant nowadays because they are s***. But once you can have a natural, context sensitive conversation with your assistant where instead of "create an alarm at 8:30" you can ask it to "see if there is any important email or WhatsApp I need to answer" or "please tell me if Joe messages about mom"...

Writing emails, generating summaries, translation, code, true phone virtual assistant, dubbed-with-AI content... This year we are going to see very probably important announcements from GAFAM, that's why the AI pin startups launched their products so early, because they are very soon probably being made obsolete with whatever GAFAM has in hands for summer and fall announcements.
