reverse immigration

So… like… emigration?

Do journalists even complete high school these days?

Wow, they fixed 1 out of 1234567 possible issues, and is none of the actual web standards!

Little instance-birds dying and exploding in spectacular fashion, all to a comfy jingle and a soothing narration of how the Internet is Doomed Regardless.

Kurzgesagt — in a Nutshell.

How hard is it for these organizers to actually reach out to women developers

What? You want men coders to somehow make up the gall to

speak

to a woman?

Cäsarenwahn

Caesar’s wank?

Have you seen 14 year olds? These days, many of them are much like Musk.

Debian schroot in a distro. Give the user in the schroot access to the snd device. Install Steam in the schroot. There, done. It’s even portable.

Devs, artists, etc all need to eat, so the game needs to be profitable enough to cover that.

And yet the devs, artists, etc of FOSS programs also need to eat, and the software is still FOSS.

(Sure we should all be donating, or rather, they should get their income from our taxes since oftentimes they literally are the backbone of the world, but that’s one more convo to the pile)

When it made people switch back to ALSAyes it did. ;)

1. schroot
2. ???
3. PROFIT

Sure, if you go with that attitude PulseAudio.

Uninstalled it for ALSA on every (every) machine I’ve touched that has to do audio, and haven’t had issues since 2015.

2017+3 Mk.III

not just having a backed up schroot of the old OS to run with schroot -c oldbuntu -u user /path/to/app

Oh, so finally after [checks calendar] 10 years, Wayland has color!

Wayland it’s totally public ready, right? Right?

Javascript-less interface when? At least for browsing. I thought this whole mumbo jumbo was for escaping from corporations, and it has quite some value for recovering the old, retro days of the internet.

Why would you join your phone to the company wifi? Mobile data is cheap (at least where I am).

Where I am, I’m on prepaid. It’s not cost-effective to pay for a full plan (when eg.: I already have internet at home).

The people who designed Gemini (and those who designed Gopher, and who did IRC, and…) have already gone to vast lengths explaining why it has to be redesigned from scratch, including new language and protocol. tl;dr: if you keep using current HTML, you have no way of preventing people from using eg.: <script> or <iframe>, or anything beyond such as ads and malware. No amount of “pinky fingy we promise” can allow you to assure to your clients that the sites you link to are safe, which kills the idea of a webring.

I’m all for the return of webrings, but if what you want to offer is something that is 1.- safe and 2.- as protected as possible from the evil incentives that drive corps, then at the current development stage it just can’t be HTML.

Haven’t ever suggested Apple. I’m just saying that (or anything) doesn’t justify the answer being a Pixel from Google of all companies.

There’s lots of Linux phones going around.

It’s less a “what’s happening” but more a “what’s always has been”. Mozilla gets recurrent payments from Google, I presume as a way to keep them just afloat enough to avoid antitrust law. Also, the Mozilla CEO gets a persistent raise in wages while Firefox sinks. Occam’s Razor says golden parachute.

And what glorious percentage is that? 25% 30%? 35% And on what schedule? Weekly? Daily?

That¿s why I said “the one you get from the custom ROMs”. Well, the ones that fork and maintain on their own anyway.

The other alternative honestly is Linux mobile, once it more properly launches.
