Ages ago someone wrote a bash script that would calculate your “stallman score”, essentially checking the license of every package in your system.

To nitpick, Win10 looks like KDE :). Kde has been pretty consistent for a while

We need her in the legislature. Presidents fuck off after 4-8 years, we can’t spend one of our progressives so early

It probably wont happen in the US, but i really hope enough countries crack down on PFAs to have some reliable sources of safe everyday products

With the state of AI and computer vision, and legal requirements to disclose ads, i wonder if a ytdl + editing script will he the nicest way to watch at some point

These comments, including this one, are an embarrassment. Worse than reddit right now.

This comment has antivaxxer energy.

The US has truly been grifted by the “defense” industry for decades now. A lot of snake oil with no testing in real battle conditions

We really need to tax energy used by GPU-burning projects differently. AI training, blockchain, whatever. Such a wasteful endeavour.

Also KDE here, but largely without modifications from defaults. I turn off a few things, but more or less it’s exactly what i expect from a DE without taking up too many resources. I really buy in to the K-suite apps for almost everything too, so it all works together nicely.

This begs some reflection. what is a"job", functionally? What would be needed for losing it to be good?

I suspect a system with jobs would not eradicate jobs, just change them.

I’ll add that id highly recommend making a backup before doing anything. You can more safely try out linux in a virtual machine as well

Self hosting means having an application run on your own server. The easiest introduction is probably using raspberrypi to run something like Jellyfin

People pretending east Jerusalem does not exist now? Illegal settlements are still illegal …

Honestly either flag makes sense given the divide. Which state is Kansas city in?

First, don’t conflate Israel with Jews. It is a government not a religious authority, and using Judaism as a veil is deeply antisemitic.

Second, this is an infantile understanding of colonization. Shall we give Crimea back yo to the Greeks? They inhabited it 3,000 years ago. Clearly not, and if Greece invaded and exploited the land and the people we’d call them colonists.

This blood and soil logic is exactly what european nationalists use to expell Jews. Comically such advocates of this logic also rarely support returning land to indigenous peoples in the US…

Getting higher every day. Majority children.

probably not too soon ;)

the moon is a big hostile useless rock. the colony dreams are just a money grab imo.

love that i switched to graphene. I was hesitant because ages ago i bricked a phone with a random ROM, but boy have things changed.

installing was seriously easy, like in a pinch my elderly parents could probably do it. the result worries better than stock Android imo

Really strongly recommend checking it out if you have a supported devices.

i really sympathize with folks who go down an iot rabbit hole only to find it’s a huge disaster.

Most iot use cases are incredibly simple, like turning on a light in the morning. implement should take a handful of minutes.

but the more complicated the technical debt, i imagine the less satisfying the whole experience is. it’s a fun whimsical hobby that quickly becomes a farce.

[obligatory suggestion to use Linux]

but yeah iot had become not optional in some spaces. tvs and cars are the big ones i can’t stand
