Its even worse if you go look at the main Dev getting it into nixpkgs, some called it out and her merged his own commit into nixpkgs anyway.

Luckily there are a lot of different tools in this space, including good ole nix shell.

To continually enhance the AI’s recommendations, we collect anonymous data on the environments generated. This feedback helps us train better models and improve accuracy.

And it is opt out, not opt in.

By default devenv uploads your code to their server to train its AI.

I got a ugreen nas. It was cheap. Their OS is Debian underneath. I installed NixOS on it. Seems to work well.

we have way too much new user feed back that “darktable isn’t at all like lightroom” and well… yeah.

darktable should not be an LR anything. ;)

Its going to be rough getting the things that are fairly necessary for a photo editor: color management, calibraiton, etc etc. God speed to the dev, but I’m not sure I see this getting to the point of replacing darktable for me.

The thing is, “vibe-coded” doesn’t always have to mean some terrible project stealing data with a million backdoors.

It doesn’t have to mean that… but that’s what it means.

It was vibe coded in two weeks. It doesn’t have color managed. Its missing a lot of things.

If you don’t start using and contributing to free tooling now, they’ll never get better and they’ll never be “professional” (whatever that actually means).

You can continue to lock yourself into proprietary tooling, but that result will always be the same: a decent product gets bought, made subscription, get worse in quality while bleeding the customer out via subscription. You are already there will Adobe, and its started for Affinity.

So, the longer you hold out on FOSS tooling, the worse and slower things will be.

Look at how excellent FOSS tools are when they get attention and investment: blender and krita.

There isn’t any difference. The team who was developing OCIS left own cloud and forked OCIS into OpenCloud. They’ll continue developing OpenCloud.

OoenCloud is a fork of this.

Fish conductor.

If the ebay seller is the same as https://serverpartsdeals.com/ then they’re great and have good standing in the community from what I can see. Contact them and get a replacement. This kind of thing happens with used drives.

It means you have no fking clue how any of this works. Libertarians don’t want a society that functions well for everyone.

Their community spaces are largely unmoderated because of the libertarian belief that they’ll just regulate themselves.

It shouldn’t be that hard. What you really need is bandwidth.

The podcasting 2.0 spec has tags for alternate means of distribution as well. I’ve been wanting to see torrent magnet links in there, but it hasn’t happened yet as far as I know

good shows, just don’t get involved with their community, its an unmoderated, libertarian nightmare.

That’s a tarpit that you’re describing, like iocaine or nepthasis. Those are to feed the crawler junk data to try and make their eventual output bad.

Anubis tries to not let the AI crawlers in at all.
