What is a “kernel” in this context? It doesn’t seem to be related to the OS kernel but some kind of graphics kernel? Whatever that is…
Did they resolve their issue with that other company? I can’t remember what was going on but the owner of automattic was pissed about them not contributing back or something? Did something change?
Anything built on top of atproto I tend to distrust. Doesn’t it all hinge upon the makers of bluesky hosting their central node for it to work?

2·23 days agoI’d say the problem is education. Porn is only an issue because people do not get proper sex ed. The reaction to seeing a dick sucked in front of a child shouldn’t be shame, disgust, or terror but allowing the inquisitive mind to ask what is happening.
Sex is a completely normal occurrence that is the reason we are all here. There shouldn’t be any shame or stigma in explaining to a child (or any person for that matter) what it is, what it involves, why it is done, how to safely do it, what consent is, why it is stigmatised.
Want to protect children? Educate them.
Hail TOR and I2P!
Same. I’m thinking of cancelling my subscription and just sticking with what works. I’m not sure I had a really useful update in a while.
Right now, the jetbrains IDEs are my favourite because they are proper IDEs, not some editor with a bunch of scripts in a trenchcoat pretending to be an editor. But the company is starting to lose touch with its customers: developers who want an IDE for productivity, not a VS Code lookalike. It’s like the company is finally being taken over by managers who don’t know lick about development and it’s starting to show (at least to me).
Now, I’m on the market for a new editor and even willing to pay, even though I’d prefer paying for an open source IDE. Right now, Zed is looking interesting. The only thing that bothers me is how loud people were about it. Hype destroys my faith in stuff as it’s often just good marketing. Another thing that bugged me is that when they started, they were “Mac first, Linux maybe”. But now that the hype has died down, there’s much less “omg, zed is the new editor and it will be better anything else” type posts, and it supposedly works on Linux, I can give it a try.
Execs that float this shit can suck it. If they don’t want to hire, don’t let them saddle you with more work. I work my hours, do what I can and clock out. If they ask for more, I tell them what I’m working on, how much it takes, and when their stuff will be able to get slotted in. They can try and squeeze more out of you, but only if you let them. Don’t let them.
They can fire you and try to hire a sucker who will - or keep running through suckers that do, but it won’t do their company nor their clients good, at least not in the long term. But these people are only around for the short term gains.
Why do people always have to use some freemium offering when there’s an opensource, self-hosted or already hosted variant out there? I don’t get it. Just riding the wave I guess.
Do they do reporting with AMD engineers? If not, AMD should be jumping on this as fast as possible.
My problem isn’t the hardware, it’s that the place I’m moving to will have a bad internet connection. My current homeserver has stuff like a CI (currently being tested), a builder for software (compiling rust, C/C++, go, and whatever else), immich, nextcloud with an extension to download from youtube and other sources (basically to circumvent geoblocking of multiple friends and family), and it could be expanded to host other services e.g a seedbox. All that stuff needs good hardware and a good connection.
My problem is that I’m moving in the not so far future and I don’t know where to put my server. Physical security is important and if someone gets into my house, takes the computer and leaves, it’ll be worthless due to encryption. But if it’s in somebody’s datacenter (co-location or whatever), they could be forced to monitor my traffic, tamper with my system, and I’d have to entrust the key to somebody in order to boot the system and decrypt the drives should it restart for an update or for any other reason.
I’m considering asking a friend to host the homeserver and reimburse them for a better internet connection (fiber) + electricity costs. But I’m not sure they’d be up for it.
How would you solve the problem?
Hey! Another nixos user 😁 What are you using for your VPS? nixos-infect? nixos-everywhere?
As for mini PCs, a friend bought one from Minis Forum and quite likes it. But if you want to support the opensource ecosystem, there are tuxedo computers and slimbook. There’s also starlabs byte.
Take your pick :)
43·28 days agoSure, the anticapitalists won’t be anticapitalistic. That’s just an excuse not to vote “they’re both the same”, then wonder why right wingers keep driving countries closer to the cliff edge.
Don’t want this to happen? Vote for a left wing party in your area or nationally. Change won’t be immediate, but every vote counts. The right wingers are friends of business and unfettered capitalism. They will let this happen time and time again.
Company creates problem. Requires users to change because of created problem. You defend company creating problem.
That’s the logical flaw.
If you see no flaws in defending a monopolist, well, you cannot be helped then.
I would like to remind you that you are arguing for a monopolist. I’d agree with you if it were for a startup or mid-sized company that had lots of competition and was providing a good product being abused by competitors or users. But Github has a quasi-monopoly, is owned by a monopolist that is part of the reason other websites are being bombarded by requests (aka, they are part of the problem), and you are sitting here arguing that more people should join the monopoly because of an issue they created.
Can you see the flaws in reasoning in your statements?
Hopefully this also means monetary investment in open source, not just open source usage without a support contract or contributing back. Matrix is a great example of an open source project that is being used by governments but struggling to get paid because governments are employing their own support staff and making internal forks.
But the more governments, agencies and individuals switch, there greater the chance they’ll pay the developers and maintainers for support or features.
