Yes, but also their cars are ugly and they were riding high on musk’s cult of personality in the first place.

Rivians are better anyway.

Probably. In all honestly, if you are a hexbear user, I’d be keeping a careful eye on who owns the domain when it magically pops back up.

It is sad that they don’t at least have the courage to be honest about their stance: they legitimately thought that trump was better than harris for Gaza and now they have egg on their face. To which I say, enjoy the leopards – they have a thing for egged faces.

This is nearly the plot to Ghost in the Shell 2 Innocence. Nearly the keyword, they might get there eventually.

The best path forward is that developers make their linux drivers before they release their hardware to the market. You know, like what they do for windows.

There’s no silver bullet here. You have to wait for someone to reverse engineer the drivers if the developers of the hardware don’t care enough to supply even basic linux driver support. Either that or linux becomes so popular that it becomes senseless to ignore it (let’s be real though, MacOS is popular enough for this to be true and yet there’s still new hardware made that ignores that platform too.)

If there are any germans out there reading this, it’s not to late to enact strong policy. America failed to do so and I fear the repercussions of not taking the threat seriously have only just begun.

I mean, my issue is that most buttons on my huion are still non bindable, and some graphical interfaces cannot be interacted with in mouse mode and only register as touch. Lastly, occasionally programs completely ignore pen sensitivity, such as blender.

This experience was when I was last on gnome. I’ve been on budgie for a while as a result of needing a tablet for my hobbies.

The lack of proper tablet support in wayland prevents me from being excited for this. I wish there was more news on that front.

So you’re telling me that I should just add the word trans to my code a shit ton to opt my code out of AI training?

Centralization is a weakness

While I agree with the basic premise of this, I think this is all-the-more a good reason for design solutions around this problem to be discussed so that more competitors can exist. If the fediverse is to expand, there needs to be easy non-technical ways for users to start up a multitude of instances. More of these types of services actually reduces centralization, in that sense.

Corporate internet doesn’t even filter out “uncomfortable” shit for people. They have a vested interest in keeping people engaged whether it’s through love or hate.

This is a misconception I see all the time. Reddit et al try their hardest to make browsing feel like a roller coaster to keep up engagement.

Do you work at Boeing?

Because that would certainly explain some things.

Whatever reason they don’t isn’t a very good one when there’s already excuses being made around AT proto not being scalable beyond a single app.

ActivityPub works today and we are using it right now. There’s basically no incentive to make a new protocol if you aren’t willing to support more than 1 platform that uses it.

I’m not even a bluesky hater, but you have to question why they’re choosing to reinvent the wheel other than disliking the lack of agency that comes with making a (essentially) proprietary protocol. You have to wonder if they ever truly plan to federated at all or if it’s all just lip-service.

Make sure that any exit ventilation isn’t frozen over for the heater. My heater used to do a similar thing and I always thought the heater was broken, but it was actually as simple as the output pipe freezing over due to condensation build up which caused the heater to turn off automatically. Fixing this involves me installing a electrically warmed pipe extender before heavy snow or ice conditions.

The big issue they’ve had, imo, is that there’s too many bots and too many IRC bridges from stubborn oldies who refused to migrate away from IRC.

There was a time when freenode went down that many channels were experiencing an exodus, which would have been the perfect time for Matrix adoption, but people were far too stubborn with IRC despite its many flaws (privacy, lack of history, poor feature set, etc.)

I assume having your own chat room with your friends would mean self hosting?

Why would you assume this? There’s plenty of servers available and conversations can still be encrypted.

Voice chat is extremely lacking, though.

It’s very strange that you’ve made a post about bugs but chose not to list any of the bugs.

Like, how can we make a recommendation if we don’t know what types of issues you’re running into? What type of hardware you have? What expectations you have?

It just kind of screams of disgruntled user syndrome. These are community lead projects so, yes, they’ll have bugs. But if people never say what they are or what issues they had with what they used, the best the rest of us can do is just guess!

To think that The Simpsons had Lisa sing his praises.

For real? I have never heard this before.

If true, it is simply more evidence in the court of “this show used to be funny, but it lost the plot x seasons ago”.

We better should’ve stayed at 640kB.

When every byte mattered. Hell, when every bit mattered even!

Girl, you’re dressed to slay tonight.
