Look at the Jellyfin one. Why is there something breaking the logo from the right? Lots of little things.
- Comment on My self hosted badges of honor 5 days ago:
Fair. It’s not just that one though. I notice a lot of weird things there.
- Comment on My self hosted badges of honor 5 days ago:
Why post this ai generated content? Since when does the docker logo have the Cassandra eye in it?
- Comment on Everything was indeed brown. 5 days ago:
Do - do you like the 5000k bulbs? Do people consider cool white lighting modern?
- Comment on SpaceX is seeking FCC approval to launch 1M satellites into space; SpaceX claims the fleet will orbit the Earth and use the sun to power AI data centers 6 days ago:
I mean yah? That’s obviously true. That’s why I said it was close to actual anti semitism. Not bona fide antisemitism.
- Comment on SpaceX is seeking FCC approval to launch 1M satellites into space; SpaceX claims the fleet will orbit the Earth and use the sun to power AI data centers 6 days ago:
This is weirdly close to actual anti semitism. Israel is a genocidal state, reasonable people can agree, but there being a secret plan to control the world reaks of something more dog whistle-ish.
- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 1 week ago:
Small clarification. Apple Pay is not really paying with your phone bill. I think you can but most users just have their credit card or debit card linked.
- Comment on Selfhosted Jira alternative 1 week ago:
For property software you would be right. Yah.
But it’s open source AGPL stuff. Full time devs improving AGPL code is good even with pointy haired managers.
This all being said I don’t think even the managers aim to become more evil and more terrible as their goal.
- Comment on Selfhosted Jira alternative 1 week ago:
I agree that taiga shouldn’t feature Haliburton.
This all bearing said do you really think the people working on Taiga seek to be more evil and more terrible?
- Comment on Selfhosted Jira alternative 1 week ago:
I mean, technically they could have hyper agile teams that use taiga there?
When they say agile they don’t mean that the company is flexible and adjusts to new situations quickly.
They mean that those companies are some of the most proficient in Agile software development methodology.
To be fair I see how people can get them confused. But in the context of work tracking they clearly mean the latter.

And I hope it never does. I don’t want more capitalism in my hobbies than there is already.

You need to reach out to the scientists to let them know! You could save lives with your insight!
- Comment on Circumcision classed as possible child abuse in draft CPS document 3 weeks ago:
We draw the line before both. Easy as.
No piercings before the child can understand the concept of piercings and agree to it.
- Comment on "Microslop" trends in backlash to Microsoft's AI obsession 4 weeks ago:
What are you talking about? Linux has virtually no backwards compatibility at all. Maybe one or two years max. The kernel is fine. The weak point is glibc.
You literally need to recompile applications constantly to stay compatible with glibc. Otherwise they just don’t work.
The good news is that distros are constantly providing freshly complied versions of open source applications.
The bad news is that actual binary backwards compatibility is non existent. Try running a binary compiled in 2005 on modern Linux. You’ll just get a ton of glibc errors.
Windows lets you run applications compiled in 1995 on modern desktops.
Linux is great and it’s what I use. But we can’t claim backwards compatibility as a strength. Maybe a binary compiled today with musl might run in 2036 but musl targeting is quite rare.
- Comment on Hacker Congress CCC talk by Cory Doctorow: 'A post-American, enshittification-resistant internet' 5 weeks ago:
It’s a major hacker community centric event. The biggest in Europe. It could be that the community just likes it. 🤷♀️
- Comment on Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi Search 2 months ago:
Same. I have been using Kagi since before they added AI features. I didn’t use them then and I don’t use them now. The price is the same.
By far the best search engine in my book. They even have a fediverse search mode.
- Comment on PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking 2 months ago:
Prusa printers are MUCH better than Ender 3s just FYI. Not even in the same class. If you end up getting a modern prusa you’ll get something like the Bamboo but more community driven and with real technical support.
- Comment on Zorin OS Breaks Download Record as Windows 10 Users Seek Alternatives 3 months ago:
Is there some Zorin PR push on the fediverse? Feels like it sort of popped up out of nowhere.
- Comment on Framework supporting far-right racists? 3 months ago:
I’d recommend giving Niri a shot. It works quite well for me.

gnu/linux user space phones please hurry!
- Comment on Let's hear it, little lemmings. 5 months ago:
Why? He was relatively contemporary and lived a pretty normal life relative to most of us compared to the historical figures.
That and he was a mega sexist who made the lives of women in science much worse for literal decades.
- Comment on European Commission launching #Wifi4EU initative, 93k high-speed private access points across the EU, free of charge. 5 months ago:
Yes you can. And the term Romanian isn’t the problem here.
- Comment on European Commission launching #Wifi4EU initative, 93k high-speed private access points across the EU, free of charge. 5 months ago:
Classic European flavored racism. Are you aware that you are promoting racism or not?
- Comment on Another Google Pixel 6a catches fire after battery-nerfing update 6 months ago:
String recommend for learning the swipe motions. It takes a few min to learn but it’s free real-estate after that. And it’s faster. At least for me.
- Comment on Steam Users Rally Behind Anti-Censorship Petition 6 months ago:
And the easy retort to that is that they don’t apply Chinese censorship globally. Only in China. Regional laws only apply regionally.
- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 6 months ago:
I don’t own a car. I just maintain a drivers license for rare cases when I need to go to a place where public transport does not reach.
I just went through the education and have the practical experience regarding driving.
I don’t think this angry approach is the best way to go forward here. Action and advocacy will beat out internet anger all day.
Advocate for and use public transport at you local level.
- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 6 months ago:
I suspect you might be telling on yourself here as someone who didn’t drive.
People who go through car education and actually drive learn about system tolerances. Speedometers can be off by up to 10% and radar guns can be off by about the same.
If you actually drive and use cruise control set to 30 and go up a hill to a level section of road, the cruise control will likely bring you up to 33 before it reacts the reduced power needs and brings you down to 30 again.
Cars in real life are not exactly like they are in video games.
- Comment on Firefox is fine. The people running it are not 6 months ago:
The point is, that the answer is 0% by any reasonable metric. I don’t think any more is to be gained here given the question dodge.
So I will say good bye and best of luck again.
- Comment on Firefox is fine. The people running it are not 6 months ago:
Ok. I have one question then. I think we can come to a clear resolution with it.
Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, what percentage is it Linux?
It includes 100% the apps, system tools, GUIs, and libraries that you associate with Linux. It also has 0 lines of Linux code in it.
If you can justify that it is above >0% Linux I will use your definition of operating system going forward.
- Comment on Firefox is fine. The people running it are not 6 months ago:
But we can agree that there are upper and lower limits though. And I believe that we can now agree that system utilities and system libraries are outside of that limit. Just because the edge are fuzzy, don’t mean we can’t come to any conclusions at all.
Any now stepping way way back. I think we can now agree that Fedora, Ubuntu and other distros run the same operating system. That operating system being Linux.
