Signal seem to be the least compromising messenger app out there with their privacy policy and open source code base. It’s only natural they are frequent victims of FUD.

I’ll probably stick to 5e and switch to a different game once Hasbro forces DnDbeyond to disable 5e content. The only answer to enshittification is complete boycott.

And how is that determined? I found the shit that I took this morning immensely creative.

Dude, those are nice programs but if you need professional work done those are of very limited use. The only thing that is almost as useful as Adobe is Affinity and that’s also not running on Linux.

MAGArine?

It might work together if the real cost would be reflected in every product. Like, if cost of pollution, emission, all consequences of everything at every step in every country would be priced in and equalized. But that’s so unlikely to happen that we might as well set the whole thing on fire.

This photo is way older than any AI project.

Nope, it’s not even the executives, they are straw people for the most part.

Most corporations are owned by investors who can cash out any time and threaten to plunge the stock into oblivion by doing so. They go where short term profits are highest, squeeze out every bit they can get and prodeed to the next investment afterwards, demanding enshittification there.

I love Linux but Programs like CAD and professional graphics software don’t run. Still Linux is only an option for programming and gaming.

And the Screenshot is made in the underdark, right west of the entrance below the goblin camp. This game deserves all of it praise.

Have not used Standard Notes yet. How does it compare to Obsidian?

I wanted to fully switch to Linux and FOSS for a while now but specialised software like CAD and image editing are either non existent or completely useless for professional purposes in their FOSS versions. What angers me most is that most is them could run on wine easily if the developers did some minor changes so it seems intentional.

Some of the tech they developed and use is open source. But the core tech is closed. For me, that’s good enough as long as they keep up acting with integrity they do.

Been using them for a while before switching to their paid version. Of course they are closed source and a business, so any hype and over the top praise is misplaced. That said they are indeed one of max a handful companies that never did anything to make me feel that my trust is misplaced. Their service is great, the products are well polished and reliable. Development is slow and they aren’t cheap. Their target audience is very security and privacy aware so any betrayal of trust would be punished incredibly hard. In that light, their own self interest should be a good insurance, should you be uncertain.

Awesome! That’s essentially lucid dreaming, congratulations!

It seems like they don’t back Trump despite him being a fascist, they back Trump because he is a fascist.

I’m so proud of the polish people to manage to get out of the claws of that more and more dictatorship-like regime by purely democratic means. I never thought such a thing possible but it inspires hope.

Yeah, same as wood, who would build houses out of that? /s

Hay is great insulation and it’s sealed with protective material anyway in modern houses. Also, even if not: Some tribes make houses out of hay or straw and those houses are quite great in their particular circumstances. There are experiments to use hay bales for structural support as well and it holds up surprisingly well.

Also, fun fact: wooden houses are less dangerous in case of fire than houses made of steel and concrete because the steel rod reinforcements start becoming soft at low temperatures (~200°C) and crash. Wooden houses announce crashing when burning, concrete buildings don’t.

That’s what happens when you only have the choice between neo liberal and extreme right.
