Something something year of the Linux car

Ive got incredible news for you

Just the one? You block the rest of us already?

It doesn’t believe anything. It’s a language model.

Not feasibly, no. If a centralized platform like bluesky refuses to abide by the laws in a given country, their platform can be made inaccessible in that country. Trying to do that to countless activitypub-compliant servers wouldn’t be practical since you van just hop to another server.

First heard about this a few hears ago- apparently it’s got Wayland support now, including for tiling WMs like sway? Thats super impressive, I’m gonna see if I can get it set up and running real quick because I just gave up on remote access on Sway when I last tried to check out the options.

Solid-State Disk Drive, it’s a regular hard drive with the platters hot-glued to stay still

He was even so generous, he used a device with a preinstalled keylogger!

So they traded in their dumb primary product for an even dumber product that will die with the fad of cramming ai into absolutely everything. That confirms there’s no reason to ever trust “the browser company” to make a product worth investing in.

It already is one if you’re not a coward

How in god’s name is this promoting worker ownership of Apple’s phone production processes?

Depending on what you’re using it for, the gsuite office alternatives are incredibly feature-sparse. Last I checked, a lot of essential features such as accessibility checking and scripting either have nightmarish implementation, or require third-party addons. It also requires an internet connection and can’t save in-progress documents to your local storage.

Honestly the only leg up over the others that I think the GSuite really has is the seamless collaboration features.

In a perfect world, lead

As a mastodon server operator you have my word that I will wipe my ass with any takedown requests from the Turkish government, and encourage any Turkish users to get a fucking VPN.

Laura Loomer and Matt Gaetz are United States fascist politicians. I assume so is the other person named, but the only Engels I’m familiar with is Friedrich.

Right, because proprietary software is never abandoned. At least foss leaves you with the source code so you or other folk can carry on the torch in the original dev’s absence.

Bluesky will be in the same boat given enough time. Mastodon (or other actually federated options) is the only proper stand-in for twitter.

Call it fewer options, I call it curated options. Yeah, I don’t get to install every piece of software I could on windows (though that list is shrinking really fucking fast), but i also don’t want to. I don’t need to put energy into cracking adobe software so they can steal my licensing and farm my data to sell or train their AI on.

I don’t want to use a drill that only works with screws that are officially approved for DeWalt drills, and I don’t want to hack a DeWalt drill to make it work with other screws. I want a drill that fits whatever screw I want. People aren’t switching to Linux because of the vast amount of software available for it, it’s because it’s the option that actually respects us as consumers.

Im not even gonna try to learn music creation again, just assuming ableton and flstudio would both be issues.

I understand that more conventional software is proprietary and not released natively for Linux, but it seems unfortunate yo me to let proprietary software stop you from making art. Ive got friends who produce music exclusively on Linux machines using qtractor, which is free and open source, so there’s no need to crack it. I can’t speak for the rest of the tools you mentioned but maybe it would just be worth exploring some of the Foss options to see what you can do with them? I haven’t bothered cracking software since I made the move over to Linux because I just haven’t found any piece of my workflows that actually depends on non-foss software. Turns out tools developed by the communities that use them rather than corporate entities typically turn out to be pretty good.
