Yes, I’m fully aware we want to abolish IP law for different reasons but still, I’m onboard.

Ubuntu, but good? It’s called Debian.

Can someone tell whoever is leading this project to go with EurOS? Please? Such a missed opportunity.

Unfortunately, no. FOSS devs are notoriously known for picking bad names for their projects and BTRFS is no exception. The official name is Butter FS, likely because it’s supposed to make your experience smooth, yet anyone who tried to use its RAID5/6 implementations can tell you that it’s furthest from the truth.

What they’re actually gonna do is release Plex 2 or something and then just invalidate all the old lifetime licenses, as they were for Plex and not Plex 2

This is yet another reminder that your IoT devices should be firewalled off the web.

The comments (and maybe the article too, I didn’t read to the bottom) are misinformation. This guy isn’t enabling Russian hacker groups. What happened is he ripped the BluRay and posted it online. Since it got a lot of hype Russian hackers decided to use that opportunity and ship a similar file ending in .exe instead of the usual Matroska format (.mkv) you see usually with ripped BluRays. If you were around torrent communities back then you know this to be false. These are your tax dollars at work, potentially jailing someone up to 15 years for ripping a BluRay.

I’ve never ripped BluRays but from what I’ve been told by someone who is apart of a P2P release group the jist is there’s an exploit in Intel SGX that made BluRay protection obsolete and the tools to crack BRs are practically publicly available if you search around for a bit. The funny thing is newer CPUs/mobos don’t support Intel SGX, which is one way to stop it.

I kinda agree with the article, I genuinely think humanity peaked with the computer of the PS2 era. Or maybe it had something to do with the patriot act. Just feels like after that things had gotten worse substantially

I personally don’t, on the off chance I do need to print something I do it at work.

Framework printer.

Make it happen.

0.0.0.0 means listen on all IPs

In the first paragraph I mentioned that I don’t have an account, I never had one on Xitter mastodon or BS. That’s my point of view, and from what it seems it’s always politics.

I never had a Xitter account so take what I say with a grain of salt, as I only interacted with the platform as a spectator.

For me it was funny to watch as I slowly saw people dive into madness over the most irrelevant things.

It didn’t matter if it was left or right people still lost all senses over unimportant things like Hunter Biden’s laptop or this week’s conspiracy theory.

I opened Mastodon and as I scroll through I see the following order:

1. republican bad post
2. republican bad post
3. republican bad post
4. something linux related (usually hector martin)
5. republican bad post

And I get it, republican is bad, but after reading 3-4 republic bad posts my mental state needs a break or something different which is what Xitter was able to do. Some new music being announced/discussed, maybe a video game, maybe a joke.

BS suffers from the same issue, no variation in the content is what makes me not want to partake.

I personally think that the problem is rooted in defederation, it’s being used willy-nilly like it doesn’t have effect on the people using the platform. But not becoming an echo chamber is essential to a platform’s long term health. If I know that a platform has the same message for me when I open the app I’ll just start using it less, which is what happened with Lemmy sadly, I open my feed and it’s full of dystopian and republican posts, I just don’t bother anymore.

Incoherent rant over.

I’ve seen it first hand but I don’t know if 9.5% is the correct number. One software guy at my company works for 11 years at this company. He went through so much shit that at this point he doesn’t even sit under the software department anymore, he’s just under finance. All he does is upgrade GitLab once every quarter or so and then he just watches TV and messes around with his homelab in his free time. Comes to the office couple times a week for 3-4 hours to show everyone he is still alive then goes home.

That game was dead on arrival for me, everything from gameplay to story was absolutely outdated and not interesting.

I’m genuinely interested in trying out Kagi, it seems like a much better experience than whatever Google has to offer. With SEO being implemented everywhere it has gotten quite annoying that every time I search for something the first 5 results are some AI generated website that copies information from other sites.

Nitter link.

Also, the Chromium forks need to get onboard. I think Opera doesn’t care about ads either so it will likely go against it but Microsoft will definitely add it to Edge.

Use Firefox :)
