Compared to untyped languages? Sure. Compared to C or C++? Then maybe it's a skill issue πŸ˜‹

Yeah, a common NVIDIA L.

The devs aren't anybody's lackeys either. Many are doing it for free in their own time. If you dont want Wayland, then support X11 with code, money, or documentation. If you don't support the X11 devs and maintainers, then you're making a decision to let it die and nobody's "forcing you" to use Wayland.

Do you have a recent graphics card? How long is "never"?

[–] onlinepersona@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I dont know how old your card is, but NVIDIA only recently decided not to be complete gobshite on Linux and newer cards should be safer (from what I've read). AMD has been stable on linux for the last decade or so while NVIDIA (aka NOVIDIO) was a terrible actor on Linux and the community had to reverse engineer a lot of their stuff.

Buys an NVIDIA GPU, complains it doesn't work with Wayland. Classic.

Had no idea, thank you!

I believe we have different definitions of slop. Slop isn't the input to me but the output. You can get all the best ingredients to make a pie but if you mix it wrong, you get slop. Same goes for low quality input being moulded into a gem.

AI doesn't always output slop.

And if you're focusing on input, then all your electronics are slop. It's almost guaranteed that child labor and exploitation was involved in collecting the resources required to build it. Your chocolate is most likely slop tooby your logic - if you bought any big brand or no name chocolate, child labor was almost certainly involved. And those children were likely also sold by their parents. There are also US products made from slaves (they call them prisoners, but is it really OK to lock somebody up for stealing a cookie and forcing them to work 8 hour days for cents per hour?) and in China Uyghurs are also forced to work unpaid. If you drink tea or coffee, boy is that all slop. The amount of land that ceded place to the large tea plantations (and let's not get started on products with palm oil) and underpaid, overworked workers (mostly women BTW) are almost guaranteed to make that tea or coffee = slop.

Rust haters are just a hilarious species. It's like they are paid Russian trolls blowing everything out of proportion, making nonsensical arguments, and always whining about one thing or another.

I can't tell if these are real people or just bot and sock puppet accounts operated by suckless.

Not all AI output is slop and not all slop is AI output.

Do Lemmy and PieFed support transferring subscriptions?

I don't know if it's possible to for a linux container to pass through a proxy. If so, that might be a solution.

 

You can find all of these videos as written articles, plus some extra content, at https://thelibre.news/

 

Sounds like a misnomer to me.

 

A KDE developer gives his opinions on the topic.

 

A few people pointed out that many rust projects were MIT licensed and since then I indeed have seen MIT licensed projects everywhere in Rust. Then I found the link of this post and it looks like MIT was by far the most popular license in all of opensource in 2023.

Any ideas why?

 

Is retroshare the new iteration of this?

 

Basically, I'd like to have my own domain e.g onlinepersona@mydomain.com but not go through the hassle of hosting my own email service: I'd like to use another service that handled SPF, DMARC, and whatever else for me, grab the emails from their service using POP, and make it available to my email client on android and Linux using IMAP. SMTP will be through the third party.

This way, if the third party starts doing some bullshit like trying to lock me in, donating to a dickhead, or whatever else I disagree with, I can cancel my subscription, move to another third party, and keep all mails on my server.

How can I achieve this? Which search terms should I be using? "Self host email server" brings up stuff that's the equivalent of self-hosting gmail, AOL, posteo, kollabnow, or whatever, but that's not what I want. "Selfhost POP relay" doesn't have much better results, always bringing up SMTP relay...

 

Telegram, an essential communication tool for millions, finds itself under scrutiny once again. Copyright holders have long expressed concerns about the lack of enforcement on the platform, and recent actions suggest Telegram is responding. Subscribers to Z-Library's popular channel recently noticed that several of the shadow library's messages have been removed "due to copyright infringement."

 

movie-web was just taken down with all its repos, Yuzu was taken down, then suyu forked it on gitlab and was taken down, countless clones of nintendo games, platform emulators, and a bunch of other things are taken down because they are hosted on the clear web.

If you're a dev and planning to write software for piracy, host it on I2P!
