You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy - Ida Auken

Although I understand if you don’t wish to stop using git.

Have you submitted feedback to Mozilla?

Building from source is the opposite of hacky. It’s the recommended way to deal with things like this where you are concerned about trust and security. I understand that it’s not something you’ve done before, but it not as complicated as it sounds. There are many tutorials on how to build programs from source.

I understand that providing official packages for fedora/rhel, Ubuntu/debian, and arch-based distro packages along with a flatpack and Appimage would make a lot of sense, but for whatever reason, signal has decided not to. Perhaps you can message the signal team to ask why they choose not to do this.

I like the ethos behind Purism, I was worried they wouldn’t be profitable at all. I hope this is enough profitablity to attract greater investment to grow and create economies of scale and lower the retail price and reduce lead times to be in line with the rest of the market.

Mp3 is a proprietary format on copyright. Some idiot ceo can came and change the rules, let’s add an ads mandatory for each decoder.

This is not true. Copyright is not relevant to an encoding standard. The standard has been unchanged for 26 years and all legal claims of patent rights related to implimentations of the standard have expired before May 2017.

@swooosh@lemmy.world you should probably know about this as well.

I’m very confused about what your requirements are based on reading your post and some of your responses to comments, but I’m going to suggest that you look into Quarto

Ghost has integration with Gumroad

Every job has parts that you don’t like. You need to learn the skills that you get paid to use or find someone to pay you for the skills you have.

Linux is as frustrating to someone that has built up a skill set with Windows centric knowledge base.

You can use this as an opportunity to have a conversation about what it is about those movies that she likes. This could open up to a larger conversation where you can connect and grow your relationship as mother and child. Or she might just say something vague and simple and you can ignore the movies while they sit in a separate library.

It’s strange to me people refer to the awk command rather than the AWK language.

Active discussion under way on !nix@programming.dev

I guess it depends on what you’re planning doing with NixOS or Aux. I wouldn’t use it for anything new and critical. I’d figure out a mitigation strategy if I were relying on it for something critical.

But for experimental purposes, neither option seems like a bad call.

I try to be positive here on programming.dev but someone gave you an incredibly thoughtful reply and you returned the favor with absolute disrespect. I think the only positive outcome here would be for me to simply block you and encourage others to do the same.

I’m going to throw this out there not being sure how true it is, but I find it interesting to think about.

XMPP is much more widely used than Matrix if you count WhatsApp (Meta/Facebook). ActivityPub is much more widely used than AT Protocol and nostr combined if you count Threads (Meta/Facebook). So reasons why people aren’t talking about XMPP include not wanting to recognize that Meta is hugely influential in this space and that most people don’t talk about the underlying protocols of the services and tools they’re use at all leaving a self selected group of people looking for alternatives with traction that don’t depend on Meta. Outside of WhatsApp, there’s not a lot of traction with any particular XMPP implementation. And none of the XMPP implementations have a Discord-ish organization of chat rooms that’s popular and familiar right now. Matrix has both right now (although I don’t think it will ever be more than a small niche in the mobile messaging space).

I’m fine with using Matrix for what it is. There are programming language communities that have been very helpful for me and a number of Lemmy related communities that have been nice to be a part of.

From my understanding Redis hasn’t been libre software since 2018 so the new competition from Microsoft might be a driver for the licensing decision.

I will upvote this every time I see it. Cross-post, re-post, doesn’t matter. I’m going to upvote it.

I haven’t looked into all of its features but it’s worth looking at.

I haven’t used KDE in a long time because I’ve been keeping things simple and just accepting most defaults on Pop!_OS.

What would be the most compelling reason, in your opinion, to make the effort to try out KDE?
