Between NVIDIA, Intel and AMD. There’s no longer a lesser evil to choose.

🤮

Because the pace of code production has officially overwhelmed the human capacity to review it. As it was discussed recently. Linus answer was to use more AI, with the implementation of code review tools that gobble up code and spew out summaries.

For the time being, humans reading the summaries count as human reviewed. But at some point in time this system will crack. The current zeitgeist is to restrict who can contribute. Which leads to the obvious follow up question of who decides based on what, and how to decide who deserves to contribute.

You just witnessed the first steps into the philosophical and political erosion of the open source movement. Not just on the kernel but it is also affecting almost all popular FOSS projects.

But of course, that doesnt matter because Linux is not and has never been political. /s

All those things, including knives, are heavily regulated, yes.

KeyGuard is proprietary on Android. Certain features are locked behind a subscription or one time purchase.

I’m starting to also hate on this model. People who claim to be open source but still throw hurdles and obstacles at anyone trying to either use or contribute to the project. I understand people need to support themselves financially, but I have donated to many free projects and open projects in my life. Whenever I see a paywall it makes me not want to use the project, however interesting it might be. It sucks they are usually the only almost decent android clients. (Looking at Symphonium and their developer’s shit ass attitude too)

EDIT: Just tried it and it seems like vaultwarden login and custom certificates on linux have been fried since December. It is currently a dead-end for selfhosters.

The reason is, as usual, that Microsoft lobbied hard to make their way the standard way of doing sleep modes. Then, when implementing it, they strong armed all the OEM to make hardware fit their nonstandard, slightly off center, way.

So, now windows kind of work with all hardware, but open source is fucked because to make the hardware actually work requires reverse engineering whatever custom crap windows does.

DRM has existed since the DVD era. I think there were even several attempts with VHS before that.

Sure, everything costs effort and money. But not $400 per image download like what some commercial sites want to charge.

There’s two comments mentioning AI, and people happily and cordially correcting them. What the fuck are you on about?

You are the only angst comment here, calling people stupid.

There’s also maintenance blindness. It is easy to see how something lasted forever, when you weren’t the one doing the maintenance and repair work everyday. Also, many “good ol’ immortal appliances” neglect to mention how most of the parts are actually brand new or it wouldn’t be functional otherwise.

We tend to forget that the design on the left was the corporate ux language for a long time. Open source is just slower to fall for the trends, but they fall eventually.

Just to be clear. The flatpak is free but the mobile one is $3,62?

Not judging, nothing wrong with FOSS getting sources of income to keep the work up. But I’m just trying to make sure I understand the rationale. What does the app exposes on users? because pay usually demands google play’s most privacy invasive services.

First time on Lemmy?

While desperately trying to stay relevant in a game genre that died 6 years ago. The golden goose is dead and they are still trying to crush golden eggs out of its dead carcass. They will never realize that the egg crushing machine they invented is the one responsible for it’s death.

The update announcement is precisely about adding this one feature. But reading is hard, I know.

Wild concept here. Raster as background and marking up as vector graphics on an overlay. Or use gwenview which is designed exactly for that.

Inkscape? Maybe.

Gimp is not a drawing software, so it makes sense it doesn’t have a dedicated “draw complex geometric figures” tool by default. It does have a shape selection tool. Anyways, it all depends on what you’re trying to achieve. Krita is for painting, gimp is for image manipulation, inkskape is for vector graphics. Paint.net is a weirdo that does everything but doesn’t do any of those things well enough.

But if your roommate says he isn’t a thief, however he always hangs around with the local gang and continuously brings used stuff that he has no way of legally acquiring since he doesn’t even have a job. I don’t know man, you have to start asking questions.

Mike is not a nazi, he just goes to the nazi bar because he likes the beer.

Yeah, because thieves go around making public statements of “we are thieves!”

No, but they are forever beta. They still lack a ton of features I use.
