Centralized storage of pirated content is a problem. You want p2p to continue, otherwise it’s suddenly very easy to deprive all of those streaming sites of content.

I’m so sad that the meme deteriorated. The original Hooty McOwlface was more complex, but the hivemind made it stupid. Boaty McBoatface should have been e. g. Horny McBoatface.

That’s how you recognize bullshit. If there was a kernel of truth worth protecting the offending posts would be removed.

The internet archive archive. Takes snapshots of the entire archive. It’s unfathomably huge.

Come to think of it, I only know two .su domains and they’re pretty great…

I do the same, but it’s very clear that when people talk about “a VPN” they’re referring to a commercial cloud hosted product.

idk what to tell you, calls have no sound.

I’ll try again, though.

Teams calls for example :( I have chromium on my Debian only for teams.

Yeah I agree.

I see potential in a chat bot that can explain concepts and answer questions, supported by illustrations.

Where’s the “CALL ME THE MEME LORD” meme

That’s the reason I think matrix lights should be outlawed. They allow plausible deniability for the driver. “oh sorry, is my matrix broken?” No, it never worked to begin with; bikes and pedestrians are blinded. Drivers on the opposite lane are blinded if there’s a divider between sensor and lamp. You’re illuminating the town like breaking dawn because your matrix doesn’t care about sleep, either!

The problem is non-savvy people classifying connecting a Bluetooth or wifi as complicated.

Also it’s just broken. Try to add an IP without gateway and it won’t let you.

There once was a time when I would have recommended VMWare, since Workstation is now free for personal use and HyperV is missing crucial direct hardware throughput, but… It’s shit now. Doesn’t work properly under W11.

Why does every tech company seem to have reached the ‘collapse’ part of enshittification simultaneously? Couldn’t they have staggered it a little?

Skylake myself, after a FX 9590 as a last ditch effort.

I’ll never get a P/E core CPU. Windows 11 fucked with virtualization and now the scheduler somehow breaks VMWare, all because my Desktop CPU somehow needs to be as power efficient as a laptop CPU when idle cores already hardly consume power. And spoiler: Otherwise I want to use the power I bought.

New build will be AMD, and only when the old one starts breaking. Now that I think about it, I should research if I can move BitLocker drives to a new system.

Oh sweet summer child.

The English abbreviation is in fact FEDRO.

At least for ASTRA, for software developed in their projects that’s already the case. Frameworks etc. used are not covered, but all source code for PLC and SCADA are theirs and you’re required to hand over all code as part of documentation at the end. As a zip on a USB key, never to be looked at again.

I’ll gladly upload my stuff into some repo they allow me to. I’ve inquired about it in the past - I wrote a piece of sw that fills a requirement hole left by a widely used SCADA tool - but they outright forbid it. That was about a year ago.

My point is less about open source and more about how they have no clue how to handle their IP even now. It’s a nice gesture at best (at least currently. Maybe there’s more on the way).
