You need to read Antifa, a manual written by Mark Bray. You will be surprised with history. The real propaganda was the billionaire media that biased your opinion. No offense (unless you really skip skimming through the easily found online epub, in which case you’d be denying yourself the chance to grow and hence lose any respect I had for the human being you are ;)

I am one of the lucky 10,000 today 😄

As OP said, stars correlated with their own posting on Lemmy. So your affirmation is not absolutely true. It’s all relative… same applies to posting on reddit vs. lemmy… There’s a dilemma between popularity vs. a smaller niche population with ethical concerns.

In a similar vein, PRs might be more in quantity but less in quality when comparing any foss project on github vs codeberg…

Yes it is. You will only lose github issues. You need to set repo there as mirror without issues and that’s it, done

Wireguard allows you to tunnel properly. For example, if you have a low cost vps, self-host Pangolin and voilà. Tho idk about android apps, surely there’s some wireguard clients that work perfectly fine with Pangolin

Yeah, this was the case shortly after they release of model 5T or around thst time. That’s when they stopped being the only company that would provide instructions to root your device, and guess what… Back then, if you rooted your device the warranty was still valid!

Let’s use AI to replace the missing CEOs when we compost billionaires!!!

This. (Offline too.)

Which generation did we really taught critical thinking to? In general, those “thinkers” or people with nice research skills (e.g. reading comprehension and other traits) were always a minority within each generation. And I agree there will be less now with AI. But we have no polls or measurement, so the title goes a little clickbaity, in resonance to the generalized discomfort towards a new technology that schools haven’t accomodated yet (e.g. all kind of solutions are seen in the wild)

I reckon it was the same with arithmetislcs and calculators in the past. We were able to deal with that! (so that whatever proportion of people that graduates knowing arithmetics with each generation didn’t shrink “too much”.)

If we are considering possible scenarios, let’s be optimistic too.

AI (discounting other problems like their ecological footprint) may not be that bad on our educational systems once we adjust…

I don’t like those projects either. Scuttlebut and cjdns looked more “profesional” to my ignorant eyes. I bring these up because I’d like to hear your comments. I will check 10fingers now…

I believe “secret” is a better word, it conveys the intention of hiding them as executed by the corporate owners with the government’s compliance

I love Python because it’s actually the second best language to do anything. For concurrency, Go is better. Also, you are terribly naive to judge a language only by its syntax.

This can mean anything, it’s possible they wanted just 1 platform so that their expertise is focused. And android being a little more open may have been seen (biased) as a disadvantage (i.e. enemies are more prone to find a vulnerability). We can argue with it. It’s like the counterpart of people thinking that open source is per default more safe because of being open source… It’s a correlation that can’t prove anything…

Ackshually, your inner Hitler is more snarky, deranged, and dangerous. You should check on its coping mechanisms. Barking at other dogs on the Internet is not helping.

Thanks. Sure it is. But I will call this a feature now ;)

For some reason, my version of syncthing-fork is old and source is not even on f-droid anymore. Was there any other before catfriend1? Perhaps I downloaded APK from GitHub… Can’t recall.

Owncloud Infinite Scale is a rewrite of owncloud that seems right to me. Hopefully we are going to see something similar. This press release says almost nothing of their plans… to me it’s making them look just worse.

Some GPLv2 projects monetize by selling: support, extension via custom features, or simply the permission for a commercial use. This is possible, and it’s what I called “the legalese package”. Imagine ffmpeg being able to charge every year any amount they want to the biggest clients, like GAFAM. Yet you’re still able to use it non commercially… To be fair, there’re some middle uses, that get the disadvantage of having to break the license or ask for permission. For example, if you create anything with ffmpeg, then as an indie dev you’d need to launch your product breaking the license or paying them… But even so, situation is manageable (e.g. ffmpeg could spare you and/ or give a 1 year permission to small businesses)

Imho, a Linux phone would help. Banning encryption is only possible because of GAFAM and their tie over “our” devices. Like android phones loosing sideloading. Meanwhile snikket.org would be a very illegal app in such dystopian future.

Arch linux ARM (the base of such steam os) has existed for a while now. Not to diminish Valve efforts, just putting in some context.
