I’m really interested. I’ve never gotten into the way KDE does things, so I’ve always stuck to gnome, but I’m always happy to see development and diversity in FOS Software. I’ll definitely check out some videos about it

I thought about that for a while, but I think it’s not that. At least not entirely. Probably some kind of non conforming fluidity kind of deal

My GF and I are generally not that into shopping, but if we do I enjoy it. I like to suggest clothes for her, though she usually goes for safer options than what I suggest. We are somewhat similar types, so it’s mostly what I would wear if I was a woman.

Oof. An always online terminal with an AI that does who knows what with the things you type? I don’t think so.

Also, Open Sourcing the client but not the server seems like marketing at best.

A quick Wikipedia also says that they basically run on investor money. Including Sam Altman and Jeff Weiner, the CEO of LinkedIn who had three massive data breaches in as many years.

That’s a hard pass for me.

It does look beautiful though

And if not illegal, definitely unethical

Yes, of course. But afaik the idea of flatpak is, that every program has a list of libraries and versions of them that it wants. So when program X was built with libfoo version 1 and program Y needs libfoo version 2, you basically download the library twice.

When you go through the package manager, you just download the current version that’s in the repository. This can lead to problems when a program expects some functionality that has since been deprecated, but I never actually had issues with that.

Also, a lot of the libraries a flatpak downloads are already installed on the system, just in a different version, I noticed.

I’m on a home computer that I use by myself, mind you. So if something breaks, it’s just my own problem. If I were to use software in production or even just administer the computer of a tech-unsavy relative, I’d likely use flatpaks or similar for stability and security reasons.

I’ve used flatpak for a while because it’s the default ob Fedoras GUI Software Center, but I’ve recently switched back to dnf and native packages where I can.

The thing is, that I have a shitty 500GB SSD with a shitty 50Mbit Internet connection (which is closer to 30Mbit because my house still has lead cables instead of copper). So downloading 300+ MB of libraries for a 2MB Program is just not feasible for me.

I’m using chrome on phone, because it’s basically part of the operating system, but I did like Fennec. It’s a fork of Firefox mobile with a few more privacy features (or so they advertise)

I’m very much out of the loop actually, but the meme mentions Loli porn. So I assumed the question was about that.

Also, I think somewhere in this thread someone posted a link to screenshots of the whole ordeal, and there is a drawing of a very young person fellating a horse.

Many people find sexualized depictions of minors reprehensible. Regardless of whether or not they are illustrations or photographs.

Another argument I have heard is that people who consume loli might someday not be satisfied with drawings and escalate their consumption to photography or even try to act out their fantasies with real children.

Also, lolicon is outlawed in many jurisdictions (or at least a grey area) since it might fall under cp laws.

Personally I am suspicious of any “slippery slope” argument, but this topic is definitely not something I want to take a strong stance on.

The German word for salmon is “Lachs” but it’s pronounced “Lax”. I wonder who had the word first

No, I was stupid. Fixed it

I’ve just looked it up and I’ve paid ~300€ last year. But only because I neglected to tell them, that I’ve started training for a new job so my dues would actually be much lower. I’ve just changed it and this year I will pay maybe 30€ or so

Edit: My math was way off ^^’ it’s actually more like 150€/year right now.

Though they do take a percentage of income before taxes, so I think it’s still very fair.

My grandpa is Kurt Cobain, my other grandpa is Tony Hawk, I get recognized wherever I go

I work in IT. My boss is by all accounts very competent in both programming and administration, yet all his documentation basically says “remember to set DoTheRightThing=True”

Edit: I just looked up the documentation for an internal service and under “Error recovery” it just says “The output of command xy should make sense”. fml

*stop going above and beyond before the profits start to trickle down

Maybe. I still don’t see how not having rights as a worker (or in this case my rights not being respected) helped to develop my personal wealth.

If your claim, that workers rights diminish wealth, is true, I should have become more wealthy instead of less. Right?

Who’s Wohlstand? I’ve worked 40, 60, 80 and even 100-Hour weeks and at the time I’ve always had to live paycheck-to-paycheck because my Bosses would pay close to minimum wage (less than if gerechnet auf die Stundenzahl), invent breaks I didn’t take to balance out any overtime I had or just not pay overtime in the first place (but still demand it).

Explain how my Wohlstand was diminished by having too many rights

This just in: A Florida man says not hitting himself in the face helped him end his chronic jaw pain. More at eight.

You are correct. It is illegal.
