  • Months old thread, but since you were left without an answer:

    Yes, they could have switched to Trixie months ago. Changing to stable now that Trixie is released will let them somewhat automatically upgrade to Debian’s next stable version when it is released. That is why they used testing instead of Trixie, so that they would automatically get the new testing version on release.

    But this is generally not recommended. It is recommended to only use the codenames to keep more control over when you upgrade.










  • Guess you are the crowd that’s being catered to with emulators that prioritise accuracy. So you should look for that label when selecting an emulator.

    Reminds me of Tiny Toons for Gameboy. My brother would tell me he had a hack to get to the final cutscene. He’d do something magical and it’s start playing. And although I knew both the intro and outro of that game by heart I couldn’t figure out that he was just showing me the intro, because the game would restart when you pressed all (or most) buttons at the same time.





  • ON A SIMILAR AND EQUALLY IMPORTANT TOPIC: Big tech isn’t blocking Matrix adoption or XMPP. Maybe when they’re a bit older, but they’re not currently scalable or robust enough to take on proprietary solutions.

    Actually, they did. Back in the day all the big companies were using XMPP. For a short time it was glorious. And then little by little they started closing it off and/or making it incompatible until they stopped using it altogether.
