Loan interests and money I disagree with. Unless we get to a point where everything is in abundance and commerce isn’t needed anymore I feel like a common item we can agree the value of for goods and services is a pretty neat idea.

Similarly I don’t think interest is inherently evil. If i lend you money to buy something large that will take years to pay off, I wouldn’t want to lose a bunch of money with inflation. But predatory rates that bet on you defaulting can burn in hell. It’s disgusting that the whole fintech industry exists purely to maximise interest and debt at the cost of those who depends on those services the most.

Your name is purple! Witch!

I upgraded from 22 to 24 as well. Cosmic is nice and can be used as a daily driver, but not quite there for a power user. I’ve installed KDE and like it quite a bit so far. But how has no one made a file browser that can match or beat thunar yet? Like the mist basic things like selecting and copying from the address bar and click and drag to select multiple items without needing to start from some empty space at the bottom!

Well, the law doesn’t come into effect until Jan 1st 2027, so you could delay until then at the latest. Or you wait a bit longer to see what the enforcement looks like and make the companies/politicians at least sweat a bit from any potential fallout. With GDPR some companies took a long time of dragging their feet to become compliant (partially because initial enforcement was lenient to give them time).

I don’t think making these other programs optional is going to work to migrate a community. You can’t say to your football team that you’re gonna start playing basketball and be disappointed when they don’t come with you.

If the discord and matrix server was fully bridge then maybe you’d are a bit more success as the community would be less fractured. If you’re friends don’t want to move from discord, and you really don’t want to be in discord, that’s a tough situation for you be in.

Jpeg XL is such an unsexy name though. (In my opinion) JPEG is already seen as an ancient format, there are plenty of even main stream memes about it’s artifacting quirks. And now you just want to slap more stuff on it? Make it extra large. Sounds like bloat to me!

To be real for a second; I’m sure it’s a fine format and suited for the future, but the name really does put me off it a bit 😄

That’s a fair take. I can relate to the feeling of uncertainty. When I make small donations of a couple of euros I have to push away my feelings that the donation could be seen as insultingly low. It’s hard to judge what a “fair” price is. But after all, many donation buttons say “Buy me a coffee” so I would hope the amount is appreciated either way.

You’re not throwing money out the window though, you’re giving it directly to someone. Someone who has used their craft to create something that has value to you. I’m not necessarily criticising you for not donating, I just want to shift your perspective that your money wouldn’t be valued by other people.

Are you’re doing it again. Stop the insulting, and ask for a feature like a normal person and someone is a lot more likely to be encouraged to work on it.

Pretty much the entire OSM sphere is developed and populated by volunteers. And they you come along and say they should take their heads out of their ass. Yes, the burden is on the users, because the developers are users themselves. No, not everyone has programming skills, but even nontechnical people can still contribute to the dataset with bus station locations and bus routes.

It’s completely okay to not use a piece of software, and if you have some feedback to give that might sway you, great! But don’t insult the developers because they have limited time and resources.

I mean it’s open source, so you can help out. And there’s no standard for publishing public transport time tables, so it is an incredibly hard task to stay on top of updates from even a single country’s bus and train companies.

With a quick look through the code I can see calls are being made to rebble.io and repebble.com. From there you can whois the domains.

I actually do like it. I don’t see it as trying to show an actually accurate ratio, or for you to be able to make an informed decisions from it. I read it as a vibe check, just a quick “what would a room fu LLM of pixel users” look like.

I’m so glad you agree that Linux users are the evil ones.

It’s annoying you font have an easy way to confirm your data is deleted or not. But I’m not sure why you would expect the GDPR to cover you as a non-EU citizen? Hopefully soon you’ll be counted among us, but until then there isn’t much a GDPR officer could help you with.

Bloody hell, I knew they were around, but not that they had rolled out that much already.

Now I’m curios of the camera used. The lack of motion blur is impressive.

I assume you’re talking about creating a VPN into your own personal network? Unless you have family or friends in a different country I fail see how you’re circumventing geo restrictions or gain anonymity on the internet.

What are these “most basic, essential” tasks you’re struggling with? Outside of trying to get Discord to screen share nicely with Baulders gate 3 and the one time I accidentally overwrote the python 3 install and broken it, it has been pretty pain free. And I code with both .NET and with Android Studio, I do plenty of gaming, and some photo editing. All things beyond the most basic of tasks and I rarely run into issues.

Have I broken a Linux install? Yep. But I’ve also bricked a handful of Windows systems poking around in the registry.

I thought people might have. I’m a little surprised that wasn’t one of the first technologies to go in.
