@Tracking Token Disrespector Who wrote this pointless bot? You really think removing tracking information from youtube links is gonna do shit? If you actually care about youtube not tracking you would instead be linking us to some kind of proxy frontend like invidious.
Louis Rossmann released an app called "Grayjay" today, and he deceivingly calls his app "open source" in his video talking about the app.
The license he is actually using for his app is nonfree, noncommercial and has many restrictions. It is nothing more than "source available", which is not even a real term or movement at best.
Louis' organisation Futo gives grants to many free software projects like Peertube, GIMP and Blender and also the Free Software Foundation itself.
I am very disappointed in this decision because especially someone like Louis knows better than this and should really set a better example.
@b17a3b4f Well the daemon was basically idling for months and now I suddenly woke it up by trying to send posts and it just freaks out like "huh? oh I exist? I have to process things? I have to move things into memory? Where is my database? AAAaaah explodes"
My other instances that get used every day don't have to "wake up" because they get used constantly.
@f661363a Oh yeah you should definitely ask the maintainers of this instance then.
Maybe they want to prevent people from forking Github repos for some reason?
@f661363a Can't push my fork of a project into GitLab because git log contains github email aliases.Why does this prevent you from doing so? Just keep the ugly aliases in your repo and don't give a damn about it.
@1c7da272 Oh so you're the crazy guy who won the auction.
I was in the back close to your main competitor. I noticed he was literally checking his account balance on his phone during the bidding process to check how much he could actually spend on it.
@ccc5d141 Another problem is that nowadays almost everyone understands "gifs" to be just a name for shortform animations.
In reality the .gif file format is nearly extinct. Nearly all of the "gifs" you see presented by social media applications actually use more modern formats such as apng, webp, webm or mp4 in reality.
They are lying to you about gifs.
@ccc5d141 Gif has many problems and limitations, gif was already superseded by the png format.
I don't think there is a single situation where a gif file looks better than a webp file except in cherry picked examples where you're comparing a very heavily compressed webp with a top quality gif file that uses the full 256 color range to its fullest extend.

@ccc5d141 Sometimes I see people hate on webp because "Google is in control of it".
Personally I do not care who invented the standards as long as the stanards are free.
@Maija Maijčika 🌲 (comp.lain.la Arc) I have no experience with dxm but I thought that like with ketamine and other dissociatives would just be tripkiller. Or maybe that's just with opiates and benzos then.
@5dc3d831 I like Keith, he's a funny mascot. However there's misinformation going around that Keith was created by Richard Stallman, this is not true. I wonder who the real creator is.
@Dire Sock :verified:@pistolero II'm not gonna but lie checking for integer overflow using if(x+100 < x) is also really fucking dumb and nobody should do this ever.
But the compiler just ignoring it is even funnier.
@Forest of Enchantment@a64762f0 I'm actually surprised that American schools teach about the Koran at all to be honest, even though it is surface level knowledge.
@992d7205@f1b33e5a The only reason military radar installation "saves" lives is because (often the same) companies that also make weapons.
They are selling selling the solution to the problems they have created.
@6de73d77 My mind already went like "fuck this" when I realized that NextJS and NuxtJS are not even related. Because of the similar naming scheme my brain automatically assumed they were forks of each other sister projects or something similar.
But nope, one is a fork of React and one is a fork Vue.
@05de5f2d I think the ambitious thing the GNU project is doing right now is GNUnet.
It's quite a complicated project to fully fathom but you should read about it when you have the time.
@20517770@b15833aa People are trying to create an immersive experience kind of like table top D&D.
Like almost all servers have rules that you are supposed to have a realistic sounding name appropriate for your species' character and you don't talk about things outside of the game (like developers, servers, etc.). You actually act like a character in the world which I find really fun.
@726b5433 Also another tip is to never hold any crypto in the wallet on your market place. Always store your crypto wallets locally.
This means that if they pull an exit scam you will not lose your money.
@e1ad17b1 When you realize most Dutch speakers are actually really bad at Dutch because we write everything official in English all the time at work and school and Dutch is just our informal shitposting language and we never write anything in Dutch.
@Haelwenn /элвэн/ :triskell:@818d8815@a64762f0 I kind of hate that in the eyes of normies the word "algorithm" came to mean "recommender system".
I'm honestly considering emailing stallman to add "algorithm" to the GNU Words to Avoid list essay when outside of the context of mathematics and computer science.
Making a list of all my aftermarket modifications and gathering the receipts for them was also kind of confrontational.
Apparently I had spent over 3k euro on car modifications in the past 7 years 🔧
@Hoss “Cyber Jester” Delgado "value on the dating market"
Just listen to what you're saying, dude. That's like not how relationships should work at all.
@527c3522 Widevine will never be supported to fully work on GNU/Linux because it requires scary proprietary kernel level bullshit that nobody wants on their system.
It sometimes works in Electron because that just uses a Chrome binary and Chrome supports Widevine partly except the kernel level stuff that some streaming services require.
Do you know what a real path towards "actually-supported streaming apps" looks like?
It looks like activism. Be vocal and keep pirating until streaming services start offering their services in an ethical and DRM-free manner. We must keep refusing to implement their digital handcuffs.
@Johnny "Jovial Johnny" Peligro 🍅 :nix: I think GTA Sanandreas is actually one of the most deranged games to speedrun.
The leaderboard is very competitive, but It still an over 3 hour speedrun with tons of super technical and very inconsistent tricks involved.
@翠星石@992d7205 Setting the repo to public is easier to do since they wanted a way that didn't require effort.
Adding a license header is a very good practise, but not required. I don't think any judge is going to disagree that if you put a LICENSE file in the root of the project and none of the files contain a license header that this implies that the license is applied to the whole project.
Adding a license header to every file can easily be done using a little script too.
