Fonzie!

Nor models.

And oh look, those make up everything that isn’t music or UI!

Old game runs needs less powerful hardware than new game

Good lord, did you figure that out all by yourself‽ /s

Heck yeah, me too!

The vast majority of these rpm records are not copyrighted. The same happened before when they were losing lawsuits over the books they archive, the vast majority of them weren’t copyrighted and almost none of them were published by the sueing publishers.

This isn’t about copyright as they would have you believe, this is about information being publicly accessible rather than controlled by corporations.

I get that it’s less secure, but using verified flatpaks beats homebrew by a large margin.

Shame they didn’t mention that homebrew is a security nightmare and will happily download maliciously modified code

That’s so true, I was missing this part! With homebrew you’re at the mercy of whoever put the package out there, much like with installers (and nix to be fair)

Edit: omg then the author claims flatpak is better for security?!? It has the same nightmare security issues.

LMAO no‽ Flatpaks can be verified, and you can choose not to install unverified flatpaks (which you should!) They are also containerised pretty well by default, in case they’re malicious!

I’m just happy my boi nix got a shoutout.

I love having a packages file and a lock file, both user-specific rather than system-wide, offering reproducibility, stability and a good, central place where I can see what I did to debug.

Nobody said anything about the init system, though.

If anything, I think it’s people used to Windows or macOS that don’t want anything to change that tend to hate Linux systems; it’s not exactly Windows/macOS (and doesn’t run exactly the MS Office and Adobe suits) so they hate it.

I don’t. What kind of memes centre around Twitter notification sounds, anyway?

Man, they really 1-upped that if there’s a kangaroo on it! Can’t go wrong with those!

Well to be fair, regulations like these don’t get added for things people don’t do.

Also to prevent people from answering with little more than a link.

Again, I’m talking about an open source application, not about user contributions.
The main benefit of this is be that people can know what your application does, and thus it increases trust in your application.

I don’t see any downsides in this for you, unless you want to sell the web application and/or artificially minimise competition.

I know what you mean, WhatsApp is still several years older than that. They added it later. WhatsApp wasn’t developed as a Signal clone, it can’t have been, but Signal seems to try to be a drop-in replacement for WhatsApp (phone number-based (yikes), focused on messaging the SMS way but with files and over the Internet, simple profile with a status message on them, E2EE…)

Just Duck it!

I’m bummed they removed it from their logo’s hover text.

I’ve found their blades, at least, not very good.

My go-to has always been Feather, they’re genuinely good, sharp, smooth blades. While they’re not European (but Japanese), they also aren’t from the US so perhaps the recommendation is within the community’s spirit?

Why Not Open Source? We respect open-source ideals but saw other projects struggle with clutter/inefficiency. We opted for a focused, curated approach to keep the database simple and user-friendly which seems to work exactly as intended based on your and other users’ feedback.

I think you’re confusing open-source with user-contributed. I understand from your message why you want to curate data instead of accepting and showing many people’s contributions, but not why you wouldn’t make the site’s code publicly available.

Superb spiders indeed, but these are not owls.
