I’m curious how that could possibly be the case…

You said in another comment that you were both making $45k. According to this table from the IRS you would each be paying $3,743 as single filers and $7,483 filling jointly. That adds up to a $3 savings when you get married. Not too mention a $6k difference is 80% of the total taxes owed so it would be wild to see that big of a variation caused by filling jointly.

Perhaps there was some tax break or credit you got when you were single that you lost when you got married? In that case, couldn’t you just file your taxes separately if there really was a significant difference from filing jointly?

Oh! I had no idea Fedora was officially supporting Flatpaks these days. I used Fedora from when it was Fedora Core 3 in 2004 until about 2015. Since it was the distro I cut my teeth on, I assumed I was familiar, but it’s wild to think it’s been nearly a decade since I’ve used it…

I completely agree that they should come up with a unified way for managing packages that they officially support. But also, a few years ago, if things weren’t in the default package manager then we had to build them ourselves because they can’t be expected to do everything for us.

So I don’t think we killed the killer feature. I simply think people have more options these days (although I see how some might see this as more rope with which to hang themselves)

I’ll update my original post to clarify that I was wrong

No. (Or maybe yes. See Edit)

Ultimately, you are the one that decided to install things outside of your distro’s package manager. If you don’t like what happens as a result… then don’t do that.

You are completely able to use the built-in package manager to achieve what we had “a few years ago”. If you want something that isn’t available in the package manager you can do what we did “a few years ago” and install it separately yourself (from source, flatpaks, snaps, appimage). Or you could become a package maintainer for that package and get it added as a package for your distro. It’s completely up to you and in no way different frmo what it was a few years ago.

Edit: after finding out from @[email protected] that Fedora does in fact officially support Flatpak, I do indeed think that they could do better in how they support that.

My man, this is nothing like an abused spouse, dubious fart

They’re both great!

I personally like Star Trek better because it’s the OG and has better world building.

I must be a weirdo because I actually preferred the Orville more in the first season when the focus was a bit more on the comedy, as that brought something new and hilarious to the table. In the later seasons, they shifted to what feels extremely similar to TNG, which made it less interesting for me, although I do still enjoy the story. The similarity isn’t just in the style or themes of the show, either… I remember seeing multiple episodes of the Orville with plot lines that directly correlated to specific TNG episodes.

The most important thing, though, is that we get more Sci-Fi on TV. The more the merrier!
