The D Quuuuuill

i wonder how many of their customers forgot to unsubscribe

that would be a non-cloudbased non-easy solution. personally, that’s what i’m doing, but i don’t anticipate most computer users wanting to go through the effort when so many people are still running windows 10 rather than switching to linux

which was either 7 or 4 years ago now (can’t remember)

VaultWarden will probably become what people who care about these things turn to for a cloud-based easy sync solution

i’d see if you can find velour replacement pads. this will reduce the head seal, which will let more sound in and will change the sound signature a little, but it will also last a lot longer for normal day to day use

Newpipe at the moment

some people are more comfortable doing all of their computer actions from the keyboard without reaching for the mouse. tiling WMs tend to make that easier to do at the cost of requiring some learning

great operating system, terrible roll out, horrible delusional pricing schedule

yeah i was hype about it until MS basically big timed everyone and was like “everyone will switch when they see how good the OS is, and then people will HAVE to make apps for it”

all while charging a fee

i dislike how those of us who aren’t okay with this are just supposed to get on board because “big tent.” nazis operate by getting their foot in the door and acting respectable. then after a little bit, suddenly they’ve taken the whole place over. it’s what they do with bars, it’s what they do with music scenes, it’s what they’ve done with past open source projects, it’s what they did with the Reform Party in the united states. i need people to stop making room for nazis as long as they behave themselves

there’s WAY too many nazis in open source. it makes me so mad. the originators of these tools and licenses believed in making tools available for everyone so that we could be the owners. but then these fucking selfish assholes don’t want anything but for themselves. they contribut to Linux, sure, but not out of any desire that Linux grow or be usable for everyone, but just out of their own desire to not pay for something and then an opportunity to weild petty power over someone.

i am so sorry you experienced that. it was not an experience anyone should have to endure.

ah, i took the stray shots to be us, linux users and linux users groups, not linux, and then i didn’t pick up you were inventing a hypothetical scenario to frame a joke, so to me it seemed like a callback to a real prior redhad announcement i hadn’t heard about. with that context, it seemed like a non-sequitar and then flippant refusals to explain the reference. the additional context you just gave was extremely helpful because we had different ideas of who the “we” in the original framing was

yup. we would prefer the power of this nation to live amongst the people rather than allow it to coagulate into a single person or position. unfortunately with what amounts to actual monarchists in control of all three branches of government, we are on the backfoot.

it’s still “around” but its leadership and mission have changed drastically enough since IBM’s purchase of RedHat to represent something completely else from what it once did and how you probably thought of it back when you paid attention to it. i’m sure if you installed it you’d find it all very familiar for a while, but eventually you’d hit something that made you go “hey wait”

1. bring attention to that people on lemmy are participating in No Kings
2. draw a connection between the Red Hats and RedHat

personally i’d not have made the association joke since IBM, the RedHat corporation’s parent company is genuinely participatory in both the Latin/Indigenous American genocide and Israel’s genocide against muslims in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, and other nearby nations, not to mention RedHat themselves have been exploiting people’s labor in North Carolina and haven’t done hardly anything to help the neighboring communities around their offices in Charlotte and Ashville, but i don’t expect most people shitposting about Linux on Lemmy to be keyed into the real world impacts the RedHat corporation has on my friends and neighbors

what are you saying, what are you talking about? it feels like you’re making reference to something which seems obvious to you but the rest of us don’t know what you’re referring

we’re what happens when dumpster fighting punks need their laptops to work

the law is not enacted. even in your prior comment you said this was being prepared for when the law is active and binding. no one told SystemD they had to do this. they voluntarily complied with a state law in colorado and two state laws in draft phase in other states

“it’s not complying in advance! it’s just exactly what complying in advance is”
