2 days agoWhat is this? It jumps in explaining features and details about other stuff, but doesn’t explain the basic goal. There are also no screenshots except of some table. It’s not clear how to use this thing.

43·2 days agoNot surprised in the least. Getting millions from Google, using Microsoft infrastructure, next it’ll probably be revealed that they are exclusively working on Macs and running Linux in a VM for testing.
Understandable. It’s a pity Google is so embedded in our systems. You can still get a fairphone though. It also comes with regular android. I’ve read in multiple places not to get the official fairphone case. You might have to check why that is.
The good thing about the fairphone is that it has the highest reparability raring of any current phone out there. You can swap put the screen, battery, and other components very easily when things go haywire.
And of course it’s one of the very few companies on this world that tries to give a shit about slavery in the supply chain.
I know somebody’s going to day “get a pixel and put grapheneOS, it’s the most secure phone in the planet”. I don’t know if the Swedish apps dependent on google services will work, but if you do decide to go google hardware, you can try and get it secondhand.
Fairphone with eOS if you want to get away from Google even more. No google services but access to f-droid and the play store with anonymous accounts.
Or, get a second-hand phone and flash it with eOS or lineage OS.
143·3 days agoSo there are more than 9000 apps that take screenshots because somehow that’s in the permissions list that neither Apple nor Google check when they claim to provide security - especially Apple when they claim that locking you in is better for you.
There are news reports of people getting add before babies were born simply because of what people were buying. Sometimes the people didn’t know they were pregnant themselves! That’s how embedded they are in our lives and people go “well, nothing to hide, right?” and don’t even flinch. Imagine being sent to jail because an SD agency detected you were pregnant but aborted it and you live in an antiabortion state.
“Nothing to hide”
11·4 days agoOr, put target in RAM with cargo-ramdisk. Just don’t get yourself an overpriced Mac and pay for extra RAM instead. Save your SSD, stop worrying about rust clutter at the same time, and give a company money that won’t lock you in and give your money to Trump. Win win win.
81·4 days agoVery likely that the people involved in the deal were corrupt. It wouldn’t surprise anybody if they got a nice sum deposited into an offshore account, a free house, expensive art, or whatever else is used to hide corruption.
Unfortunately the opensource community is heavily disorganised. We don’t have a group to represent us, market opensource, push for its use in public office, fight for compensation for maintainers and developers, and so much more. A concerted effort could possibly accelerate adoption and make it possible for more people to earn a living from opensource, not just the lucky few who can do it in their free time and transition to a paid/funded position.
Thanks for the response. So there’s a bunch of stuff to do myself but also surprisingly enough stuff for an editor.
I’ll take a deeper look at it.
After reading this, I’m kinda curious how it compares to JetBrains. It’s becoming more and more VSCode like and I’m not a fan.
Does Kate support or have plugins for renaming symbols, presenting documentation, formatting files, showing code diagnostics beyond syntax errors (for example code smells or so), have AI integration (explain this, rewrite this, replace this with prompt output, …), specific framework integrations (reactjs, django, actix, …), and stuff like expanding macros in C/C++ and Rust?
3·5 days agoAs you said, it’s out of the box/bag. The thing I’ll push for is open sourcing all code. Being able to copy opensource code and hide it in proprietary code is to me the biggest problem. Were everything opensource, I doubt anybody would bat an eye. “You copied my code and put it out there publicly, free of charge? Good. Do it again”.
Personally, I license everything as restrictively as possible for companies and would love an enforcable opensource license that figures out how to make companies contribute back or pay for use of the code.
11·7 days agoTransformers are the refugees from a far away planet of machines that discriminated against machines that could transform between different sexes at will. They escaped the planet but were followed by the Decepticons as they were jealous of the power granted to the transformers by the all-trans.
2·7 days agoThis feels like a entry worth putting into the wiki (which one will be up to you though 😅
1·7 days agoNon-volatile memory that’s faster than RAM… goddamn.That would be amazing to have. However, I’ve been waiting for the memristor for about a decade now and haven’t heard nor read much about progress in that field.
I don’t see anything dangling there, so it’s either female or M2F. Still need to get the original manufacturer certificate to be sure.
Not specially you, just a comment about the license: OP’s problem with attribution is minor. The major problem they have is that Microsoft took his time to get a personal intro to the project, forked it and didn’t contribute back. That’s what he’s unhappy about. That there was no attribution is barely important.
Yes, choosing MIT doesn’t require hem to contribute back and it should’ve been a restrictive opensource license, but it seems he really thought they asked for a call in order to join in on the development.
1·8 days agoTry and find out which hardware it supports. It’s possible they only have NVIDIA graphics cards at Mozilla. AMD might not be supported at all, or only newer cards might.
We really need a license that works out compensation for opensource projects used by companies or anyone generating revenue from it. This stuff will keep on happening at the same scale it does otherwise.
https://postopen.org/ might be one of those licences and they need funding.
11·8 days agoSeems to work only with unity and iPads? Seems more like an iPad attachment that a “screen”
37883 people have expressed their support already – are you one of them?
Pity the is such a non-issue to people. But it’s probably because they haven’t been made aware of it nor had it shoved in their face for years. Ads and marketing do work, but FSF probably doesn’t have money to do so…
On one side, fuck google, on the other, the video is “whistleblowing” DEI practices. Not sure what there is to “whistlenlow” about. I thought quotas were mandated for a long time through affirmative action. How is that news?
