The gravity mattress, electromagnetic pillow, weak nuclear sheets and strong nuclear blanket

They should allow that. With gpl, the name is protected and that’s all that matters.

I downvoted because I’m a hater /s

With python and virtualenv you can also keep the entire source of your libraries in your project.

Is RCS encrypted? I still prefer signal above everything else. Whatsapp seems to be passable privacy wise, but it’s Facebook so I don’t trust it one bit.

One way or another, Whatsapp is the standard around the world and it for sure beats SMS.

One of the bold claims of proton is that all your data is encrypted and they can’t see it (not 100% sure how they do it, probably your key is encrypted with your password as a symmetric key? Then when you log in, the client unlocks your private key and then that key unlocks the emails and stuff).

Now, it also turns out that they write the software that uses your key to decrypt the emails. It would be trivial for them to just send the keys back to themselves and decrypt all your stuff.

I don’t think this is a huge point against proton, as AFAIK no one else even offers encrypted email. But nonetheless I would like to see an api and some third party clients.

While I think firewalls are overrated, they are also dead easy to set up, and the best kind of defense is defense in depth.

It works, nowhere near as good as AMD but it works.

You can get used to any scale

If farenheit represents how humans feel then 50 is the most comfortable temperature right?

I love Fedora! but sadly I have been burned twice by Red Hat already. I refuse to be burned a third time so I’m moving my servers over to Debian. I like to use the same ecosystem on all my computers, so I also moved my desktop and laptop over to Debian.

I tried OpenSUSE a few times, but I disliked YaST, disliked the unclear future of Leap and disliked the unclear future of ALP. I thought I would love Aeon (I used Silverblue when I used Fedora) but I didn’t like being unable to compare my system against a “base” one. So for the time, at least until the situation over SUSE clears up, I’m going to stick with Debian.

Anyways, once GNOME 45 hits Debian Testing I think I’m going to move over to that, I would prefer to use Stable (which I use on my laptop and job) but I really want a recent GNOME for my Nvidia GPU. I have a bunch of BTRFS snapshots ready to go back to stable at any moment if anything happens, so I’m not too worried.

Is that on X11 or Wayland?

When my main PC had Nvidia I was desperate to move from Xorg to Wayland because Xorg was laggy like that video you showed while Wayland behaved perfectly.

I think that only happens on Xorg if you have different monitors though.

I went for an AMD APU on my laptop explicitly because I wanted to avoid hybrid graphics. While I would like a faster igp, for battery life and ease of use, APUs are fantastic.

I tried a bunch of terminals on my laptop and ended up deciding that I don’t care and just like the GNOME terminal.

I’m going to try Console on my desktop then!

First, I have a multi monitor setup, with different resolutions, refresh rates and scalings, so X11 is basically unusable (tears like crazy and wrong sizes everywhere). On Wayland, Wayland programs work perfectly, always looking crisp and the correct size.

Anyways, nearly everything I do is in a browser or a terminal, both work perfectly on Wayland. The other program I use lots is VSCode, which in the past was its own source of problems for Wayland/Nvidia, but now it surprisingly works fine (as long as I launch it with --ozone-platform-hint=auto so its not blurry).

I do use lots of these fancy electron apps, things Slack, Discord and Teams, but I sandboxed all of them into my browser. Teams barely works, but it barely works anywhere anyways so I’m not missing out on much.

I also use lots of native GTK apps, they all support Wayland perfectly, I really like the Celluloid video player for example.

The only programs I commonly use that are X11 only are Spotify, which I don’t really care if its blurry (I tried sandboxing it too into the browser, but I like to keep all my music downloaded) and Datagrip, which I’m anxiously awaiting for Wayland support.

Exactly. The first thing we need to do is stop extracting extra carbon from the ground.

Then we literally need to start reducing the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, probably by literally growing trees, cutting them down and them straight up burying them deep underground.

It’s vulnerabilities month or what?

I’m personally waiting for utf-64 and for unicode to go back to fixed encoding and forgetting about merging code points into complex characters. Just keep a zeptillion code points for absolutely everything.

As opposed to dying in a valley forever, totally painless.

I’m curious about dying on a hill temporarily though.

No joke that would be great for privacy and putting users first. Users would go the product to the customers and the platform would actually need to cater to them.

The same would happen with Twitter.

Now, social media depends on its massive size, so even if makes the platform more user-centric, it would reduce the amount of users and reduce its value.
