:blobcatafternoon: The hard part is figuring out if it's actually a good idea...

So apparently @alpinelinux supports Flatpak. :blobthinkingeyes:
Now it's legitimately an option for my next distrohop! :ablobfoxbongo:

Wireless keyboards are great for travel, but why do so many people just buy them to "make their desk setup look clean"? I understand using a wireless mouse at a desktop because it moves, but a keyboard? :ablobcatcoffee:

:ablobfoxbongo: "You see, we human beings are not born with prejudices; always they are made for us, made by someone who wants something.

There were these things called libraries, which let you borrow DVDs, later Blu-Rays, and sometimes even actual video games and play them for free without ads! Not to mention the fact that you could borrow eBooks written down on paper for free too!

There was even this thing called antenna TV, which let you watch shows and sometimes movies for free, and there were these things called DVRs which let you record these shows and movies, then skip the ads!

Never forget what streaming took from us.

:blobcatgooglytrash: 10X developer
:blobcathyper: 4X developer

:ablobcatattentionreverse: A 4X developer will 4X your competitors' businesses!!! :ablobcatattention:
