Yeah, if you don’t mind it possibly taking a week to download something… Really like the idea, but in practice it’s very slow for something like that, unless you got a lot of seeders for something maybe.

That’s what I mean by a lack of a standard for markdown. There needs to be at least a core standards for stuff (like bolding and italics), that is universal across stuff. Then if a program wants to add onto it, that’s fine. But just the core parts being standardized would help a lot.

Markdown really should have more widespread support than it does. It’s just the right mix between plain text and an office document, I took my college notes with it in fact cause of how fast it was to format stuff. But as far as I know, there’s no default program on any of the (major) OS’s or Distros for viewing it.

Maybe it’s just due to a lack of standards for formatting or something, but regardless I do wish it was used and supported more.

Looks like it, it’s available as a zip in the releases along with the compiled app, but isn’t yet uploaded fully on GitHub.

8/10 map, ngl. Would play over Summit or Apocalypse any day.

I don’t know if it’s the “TOS-Breaking” you’re looking for, but I’ve been using Forkgram for a while now and really appreciate the QOL improvements it has, as well as the ability to hide the Premium stuff you aren’t using.

OpenSuse Tumbleweed without a doubt!

Unfortunately for those of us that use Cuda features, AMD just really isn’t that viable of an alternative. Anyone who’s had to deal with ROCM can attest to this…

🤘🏻

Actual proper touch support, which includes a decent built-in keyboard (looking at you KDE…).

I love 2-in-1’s, but I do wish touch support would go all the way. It’s like… 70-80% there, with Gnome having a good keyboard and KDE having the better touch support overall. But it just needs to go the final stretch to make it a good experience.

I mean, that’s the case for KDE too, so can’t really throw stones there.

Could be it’s a requirements for their payment processor, and details like that aren’t something you talk openly about freely.

Also, you will have sites that u lock will break beyond repair, so try is the correct word. I know this well from using Brave, which is even less than uBlock does, and even then some sites are still broken and requires the shields turned off. Just an unfortunate reality with today’s web.

Quite frankly no one should be using captchas at all. They are mostly pointless, and AI’s have reached the point of being able to solve them. It’s mostly just a gratis thing at this point… The illusion of trust and safety, probably for both users and providers.

Considering Purism is running a pump and dump scam with their phone, I wouldn’t grace them or their website with a single cent. There are worse things than a potential privacy issue…

It’s likely something out of their control. I imagine their payment processor either uses it, or requires the site to use it. Mostly to combat automated fraud.

You likely won’t find any site, that has online shopping, that doesn’t use some sort of way to gatekeep against this behavior, unless it’s crypto-based. And even then it likely still has something like that. Even if the site redirects to Paypal, you’re gonna face that.

Your approach simply isn’t realistic to the modern web. You can try uBlock, but blocking those connections likely will make the site ultimately not work for you.

Huh, this might be one of the few examples of “don’t break userspace” not being held to by Linus and co? I’m sure stuff like this has happened before, but “don’t break userspace” has been a fairly strong guiding principle for the kernel for sometime. So seeing something like this happen is actually a bit surprising.

Though I guess it could be argued that if the removal of fTPM causes fewer bugs/issues than leaving it in place then userspace wasn’t broken. But still, it’s interesting to see regardless.

Good bot!

Also, I’d argue this is a good step forward for Suse, as it will take a lot of shareholder pressure off of them.

Good bot!

The ActivityPub standard is modeled on email. Each instance is a server, and we all have inboxes. It’s a very apt comparison to use.

Also, unless the email is E2EE, then it’s not private, no more meaningfully so anyways.

Read my other reply, I’m not talking about email blocklists, my reference is to email providers doing that, which is extremely rare and done with explicit intent and good reason.

Secondly, while I won’t disagree there’s some vile content out there on the Fediverse, do you trust someone else to make that decision for you? Why would you let someone else decide what is and isn’t vile for you and those using your instance? Better yet, how would you feel if some popular instance decides you were the vile one, and because it was a common instance to use for blocking references, your instance is now cut off from a good chunk of the Fediverse?

This is exactly the sort of nonsense that swept Twitter with shared Blocklists, and the potential for negative impact on the Fediverse is even worse from it. Don’t let others decide make decisions for you just because it’s easy, as it doesn’t absolve you of responsibility when something goes wrong.
