Arent these things being ingested as an alternative medicine?

If all this bullshit is what we need for services to provide a clear and standardized APIs, so be it.

For real. The new logo was the reason I switched back then. It was a tough experience, but worth it.

Hold your horses, not everyone around here is a human asshole specialist.

Why stop with power? We should aim for water outages as well! Just when I was starting to think this might not be a pathological ideology…

Good luck to the admins though, I appreciate the effort to stay out of cloud. It’s hard to maintain constant uptime when you don’t have teams of people dedicated to keep stuff afloat.

Now when I think about it, is it even possible to run lemmy on a cluster, like a regular web app, or is it a monolith?

like the desktop icons, the minimize button, the ability to adjust fonts, change themes, right click menu icons, systray…

Peertube has a major disadvantage, though. It does not come with prebuilt revenue stream to cover your hosting costs.

In other words, he would become the customer, not the product, which comes with the certain set of advantages and disadvantages.

edit: or he could spin up his own instance, which would result in him having one more fulltime job :)

Excellent thought-provoking story. If you always wondered how you’d react in extreme circumstances, this is your chance.

It fucked me up for days.

• 10/10 for the story,
• 5/10 for the control scheme.

Physical or digital does not really matter. Gving such a powerful tool to a central bank seems too dangerous. If implemented, it’s not really a question of IF it’s going to be abused, but WHEN it’s going to be abused.

The digital currencies were supposed to give more power to the people, but the Taler is working in the oposite direction.

You’ve pretty accurately described everything that’s wrong with it.

That’s my main problem. They had a chance to make it fully anonymous and fungible, yet decided to implement an intentional vulnerability to reveal the receiving party.

I rarely wish for an opensource project to fail, but Taler is an exception. Offering a digital currency system for the government to use is like sending an efficiency improvement proposal to Auschwitz.

By working with the real hardware vendor, they could apply for the certification, thus making the apps requiring the useless stamp from google work again.

Well, except for those apps that specifically tries to blacklist graphene. Looking at you, Revolut!

What do you mean by “much less usable”? It’s pretty much AOSP in terms of the UX, for better or worse.

Considering the raising popularity of authoritarianism, with a healthy dose of paranoia, it’s not the criminals I worry about.

Nokia n900 could do it live, with a charger connected instead of a second battery.

You disabled the watchdog, because root access was officially supported, turned the brightness way down, connected the charger, and finally swapped the batteries.
