Centralized platforms for multiple uses and a huge tool ecosystem. That is it. It is simply much much much easier to set up and get a consistent experience.
Embedded coding (as an example) has an extremely scattered ecosystem of vendor-run IDE forks which are usually a pretty bad experience.
Their commandline documentation is often complete trash so instead of fixing that, they just make a simple plugin for vscode and they have a cross-compatible IDE that already works with all of their customers’ favorite plugins with very little work.
Also, code-server. There is no other IDE that has an experience like that as far as I know.


I live in Belgium and the law is there, but it seems pretty much ignored. At the time there were some games that were changed (battlefront II 2, overwatch, FIFA, etc…) But it seems like everything after just ignores the law. CS2 still had lootboxes, genshin impact, rocket league, apex legends, league, etc…


I respectfully disagree. I understand what you are saying. But censorship and echo chambers on a platform level are a related, but different issue.
I agree that Lemmy is very much anti-censorship.
However, echo chambers can exist with 0 platform censorship whatsoever. It doesn’t have to be the platform’s fault. If people only read and interact with communities who’s viewpoints confirm their own, that is a completely self-made echo chamber. Completely seperate than censorship and completely unrelated to the platform, but instead the people and community moderators.
For example, hexbear users pretty much only interact with hexbear and .ml users (and often ban others). That is an echo chamber. The .world main communities ban people of both too far right and too far left so there is little interaction of those viewpoints with those communities. That is an echo chamber. The community of open source doesn’t ban many people, but the only people who go to that community are very positive about open source. That is an echo chamber.
If you have a dozen rooms in the same building and you have 1 room that thinks the world is flat and the people don’t go into any other room, even though they have free and open access and can go to hear the opinions of the 11 other rooms, that room is an echo chamber


Lol nope, i don’t use bluesky. I agree that corporate manipulative media can go fuck themselves.
I was just correcting your implication for other viewers that the fediverse is any different as far as echo chambers. It is just not a corporate controlled echo chamber.


I mean, every community is an echo chamber, that is what online communities do and have done since the beginning of the internet. Hell, in-person meeting groups are echo chambers more often than not. If you go to an open source convention, the people there will probably echo your opinions on the topic.
Lemmy is definitely an echo chamber in many different communities, I would venture to say most. If someone thinks left communities aren’t as much of an echo chamber as liberal or conservative, then they either haven’t spent enough time there or are lying to themselves just like the people that say “propaganda won’t work on me”
People gravitate towards people with the same views who confirm their worldview. Even if you discuss topics and have different views, you are still in a group with like 90% the same views. That is just how humans are unless one makes a conscious effort to go into hugely different groups like specific debate groups or something.


Duh, stream a b&w tty terminal in all of its glory! What is ssh?


What I don’t get is that is
Maybe not a good example because all TVs and Smart fridges run MCUs (or SBUs) that are 10x-20x more powerful than what is in any smart watch besides the apple watch (where the watch is mostly one gigantic custom IC).
They usually run NXP I.MX Arm M7 processors at the bare bare bare minimum, much more common is an ARM A7 or higher which is a completely different world than the tiny nrf52840 with 192KB of RAM and 1MB of flash that is standard across lower-end smart watches (and doesn’t go upuch with higher end) That is why I was confused. But I guess people get down voted to hell for asking a question lol
I would think Linux would be way too heavy for these watches. A lot of them use pretty lean MCUs, a far cry from the beefy Qualcomm phone chips that Post market runs on.
Even running zephyr on the NRF52840 can get heavy with adding a bunch of apps to it.
Nah, it is pretty much if you didn’t buy one of 2 trendy models of the year, then nothing else has ever or will ever be supported (of course you can always write your own drivers but it is a ton of work, especially for non-coders)
I have a thought that a lot of the enthusiasts that go through the pain and effoet of writing all of these drivers for old phones they have were usually the kind of people to buy the best/most popular device of the year


Can trillium store all files in markdown/plaintext?
How is the theming by trillium? I use a light tan interface because it is much easier on my eyes, personally than high contrast white or eye-straining dark themes.


They also have a batshit judicial culture and women apparently never get justice and most courts are a kind of semi-scripted kangaroo court.
Ace Attorney was specifically made as a parody of Japan’s courts IIRC.
KDE Discover also is good if you want to see/be notified that you have updated things and be able to uninstall/reinstall apps without the GUI bugging out.


Oh yeah I was quite annoyed with bazzite initially with embedded toolchains… The default arch distrobox also runs vscode variants horribly with tons of freezing for some reason. I had to create a new arch distrobox.
Also Saleae Logic2 has a Fedora bug where it takes between 2 and 10 minutes just to open because of logfiles and errordumping and timeouts that is very annoying.
Also menu shortcuts for distrobox only work like for 20% of programs (luckily code-oss is one of them)
And don’t get me started on running a VM that can see the local network…
After you get a setup going though, then it is breezy though.


No because she evidence is stille their, they just don’t have access to it (legally if they use certain tools, apparently all phones outsider of the newest pixel and most grapheneOS are exploitable and unlockable).
So that is the reason, that they would kever have access tot it when erased, as opposed to possibly getting a court order for the data in the future or nowadays just paying for an unlock tool illegally (depending on location)


They can prosecute you for that in many places as destruction of evidence.
(Which is weird because if they fail to convict you for whatever BS they are going for then it is the Goose meme of “evidence for what???”)


As someone who did tech support as a side gig for my last company, this happens literally every year so I try to keep up with news. Disastrous, bricking-computer-tier updates in January and February have been the norm for years now.
Luckily they are often fairly rare enough that it hasn’t caused huge disruptions (in my case)


“Here in Denmark, we want homegrown European corporate-driven mass surveillance of all civilians.”
Glances at ChatControl
Yeah, I am no fan of proton and they have lied before (no log VPN logs magically finding logs for authorities and then later removing the no-log claim).
But this is literally just proton being legally compelled to hand over data the user willingly gave (not being harvested or de-encrypted). A nothing story.
