fossphi,

Dang, how’d you find such a crisp version

fossphi, (edited )

Yes, as much as I appreciate memory safety and rust in particular. I’m very worried by this pivot away from copyleft and GPL. Specially the rewriting in rust phenomenon of fundamental stuff. It’s safer, yes, but they’re all pretty much non GPL and it seems very risky to me. Make no mistake, the industry is riding this wave to move away from copyleft to permissive licenses.

I wish that people understood the importance of FSF and GNU

fossphi,

I’m sure there’s some community pull as well, because most of the rust ecosystem seems to be converged on MIT. But what despairs me is the wilful sidelining of GPL and everything GNU by some open source community members/corporate people. So yeah, you’re probably right

fossphi,

I sometimes enable the recommended videos in newpipe just to see what’s out there, it’s mostly shite, though. For me what worked was asking people. Sometimes my friends, but more often, hanging out in online communities/forums relevant to my interests gave me a bunch of good channel suggestions :)

fossphi,

Hmm, interesting indeed! I get what you’re trying to say, but I would also tend to believe that it’s still the same animal? If not that, then wouldn’t the caterpillar cease to exist when it metamorphosised into something else?

fossphi,

Fair enough, but did they use it? I always felt like focusing on statistics instead of random trig stuff for non stem people people would be more useful

fossphi,

It ain’t much, but it’s honest work

fossphi,

Quite the same case as with matrix. I very much prefer AGPL over all the other permissive licences, but I don’t know, the CLA leaves a bad taste in the mouth

fossphi,

Least insane religion

fossphi,

I always thought it was a camera?

fossphi,

5/6, not bad

fossphi,

Like nature intended. Even here QT seems more customisable!

fossphi,

Maybe off topic but what’s the issue with using standard Firefox? Also on f-droid through Fennec/FF updater.

With things as dicey as browsers, I would rather have fewer patches and a certified version. These forks never seemed very reliable to me

fossphi,

This is a wendy’s

fossphi,

What, how?

Self consistent systems do not imply design, imo. There has to be a certain level of self consistency for any entity to exist?

fossphi,

This is looking really promising! Pipewire already has pretty much solved audio issues (at least for me) entirely and now with HDR on the cusp, the year of the Linux desktop is nigh! Barring some Adobe BS and CAD stuff, there really isn’t much left
