What matters is how this affects enforcement.

Lol sure destroy all the trust with your users THEN launch an email service. Hard pass fro me.

I guarantee you they’re already planning to train an LLM on everybody’s emails, or at least sell them to AI companies doing training.

ez pz:

#!/usr/sbin/nft -f
table inet filter {
    chain input {
        type filter hook input priority raw; policy accept;
        iif "lo" accept
        ct state established,related accept
        iif "enp1s0" udp dport 51820 accept
        iif "enp1s0" drop
    }

    chain forward {
        type filter hook forward priority raw; policy accept;
        iif "lo" accept
        ct state established,related accept
        iif "enp1s0" udp dport 51820 accept
        iif "enp1s0" drop
    }

    chain output {
        type filter hook output priority raw; policy accept;
    }
}

My new strategy is to block EVERY port except WireGuard. This doesn’t work for things you want to host publicly ofc, like a website, but for most self host stuff I don’t see anything better than that.

If you’re new to Linux, then your probably not familiar with the full Linux community yet. Much like in real life, online Linux spaces tend to have a very loud minority of conservatives who hate progress.

Usually you’ll see them hating on things like systemd, 64bit architectures, containers, new packaging systems (like Flatpak), immutable and experimental distros (like Nix), Wayland, “bloated” desktops like KDE or Gnome, and much more.

And just like in real life, the antidote is to not take another person’s word for it. Do your own homework/try things out yourself and arrive at your own conclusions.

Flatpaks implement deduping, so they actually don’t take that much space when installed.

I habe a PC with an 8gb SSD

I think I found your real problem.

That protruding blob on the back of his neck isn’t fat, it’s actually a bonus concealed weapon slot.

Pretty much: https://github.com/apache/openoffice/commits/trunk/

Source?

That’s a gimmick that doesn’t justify the costs of switching from Git (IMO)

If you want decentralized collaboration features in git without using forge software, you can use mailing lists like the Linux kernel does.

Anyone have the story behind this? Fuck Microsoft and all that, but Github has historically been pretty good when it comes to not banning people for stupid reasons. Usually, it’s a DMCA thing or a valid security threat.

Recently, there was some controversy about closed source code powering a component of the project (https://github.com/orgs/organicmaps/discussions/9837) but I didn’t keep up with that. Could this ban be related to that?

That is peak clickbait, bravo.

For the past like decade the only “updates” OpenOffice has been getting are questionable code comment changes from one dude. These changes literally do nothing, and people have suggested that the only reason he does it is to make OpenOffice seem like it’s still being developed, even though it was abandoned long ago.

Why? IDK, but I think it’s just some stubborn asshole with an axe to grind with the LibreOffice project. OpenOffice still has stronger name recognition than LibreOffice, so a lot of people still use it.

You’re looking for enemies where there are none. I’m not a medical professional, but I assume this amount of paranoia is not good for your mental health and well-being. Just take the article for what it is: a win for free software

Do people use Facebook for porn? Like, on their personal accounts? That’s weird.

I want to celebrate this, but it’s hard not to see it as an attempt at authoritarianism. I think the right way to do a Facebook ban is to ensure people have access to a good alternative (like Mastodon) before pulling the plug.

Huskies are great. Mine loses her shit if I even look at the leash, but she will not run out the door by herself. At worst, she’ll take a few steps out with her ears down (which is the sign that she knows she’s being bad), but then run back in as soon as I call her.

I didn’t train her at all, she’s just an unnaturally good girl for some reason.

Apple seems like the best option due to their business goals (privacy).

Lol. Lmao, even.

Sorry for the flippant comment, but it’s so incredibly wrong that I need to highlight the ridiculousness. TBF to you, it’s a common misconception due to Apple marketing’s lies, and our regulatory agencies unable/unwilling to do anything about companies that lie like Apple does.

Microsoft would be even worse.

The best outcome IMO is to kill Chrome, Edge, AND Safari, and force users to scatter and find an alternative on their own. There will need to be some way to prevent all big tech from trying to compete here too (Facebook, Amazon, etc), as those are incentivized to monopolize exactly like Google did, and we shouldn’t have to wait another 2 decades for the government to do something about it.

There will be some growing pains as people initially end up on shitty/scammy browsers, but eventually the market will do its thing and browser devs will compete for marketshare.

I never got around to using anything except git, partly because of all the hate people would throw at the other competitors back in the day. Even if the criticisms were not fair, and even if it was all a secret conspiracy to kill git competitors, it definitely worked out for the best. Imagine the hell we’d be in today if we had to constantly deal with different VCS solutions.
