Just do your part and don't get discouraged. You don't have to do everything. Walk the walk, talk the talk. If things don't work out, at least you tried; that's more than the majority did.

Do what you do no because of some expected local or global outcome, but because it's right.

Kernel Level Anti-Cheat is a security risk on Windows, plain and simple. It basically bypasses nearly anti-virus and gives game devs access to any and every part of the system. Bugs could lead to unfettered and persistent access for malware.

Additionally, it doesn't work out of the box on Linux in wine (wine isn't a windows kernel running on linux, so it most likely can't work).

Guys, stop using github. Put your stuff on gitlab or codeberg (clearnet or on I2P), or even put it on radicle (which can also be hosted on TOR or I2P). They'll have a much harder time taking down stuff on alternatives and it'll be nearly impossible on hidden services.

Before reading this, I'll assume damage control. Let's see...

Edit: Yep, damage control. As others have said, his opinions are his opinions, whatever. Making his opinion the official opinion of Proton: no no no no no

Multiple things:

• get rid of mandatory mailinglists
• use a modern git flow without emails
• get the hell off of discord
• don't make me a "maintainer". I write code, I love it. Don't Peter Principle me
• pay me if I'm supposed to care

The goddamn Linux Foundation is investing more into AI than friggin Linux. They could be hiring hundreds of staff to work on Linux with the billions they shove unto AI. What the fuck are they doing? Mozilla is another offender.

Open source foundations with money should be using it to develop open source.

Also, on greybeard conferences: allow virtual participation please? My company isn't going to give me 4 days off to travel somewhere for one day, have a 2 day conference, then take another day to get back. Nor am I going to pay 200+€ or something as an entrance fee on top of my ticket halfway around the world.

Looks like development of such things will have to start happening on the dark web. What a ridiculous conviction.

In its judgement, the court accused him of an “ideology of maximum privacy.”

What the fuck is this kind of reasoning? Is privacy illegal now?

I don't agree with the tone of the Lemmy devs, but they are right: it's opensource being worked on mostly in the free time of people. Do not treat the devs like they are paid to do your bidding, because they aren't. If you donated and have expectations, you don't understand the meaning of a donation.

Imagine if the author had a woodworking workshop on their compound where they made things out of wood; figurines, furniture, tools, sculptures, and so on. Say they opened it up to the public so that guests could have a look, play around, spend some free time there, and maybe even use the equipment there. But then guest started demanding the author buy newer equipment, make sculptures more to the guest's liking, made the workshop more accessible to invalids, put up the national flag, play the radio, and a host of other things. All the while not footing the bill for anything, not helping clean up, not volunteering to help in any fashion.
Then the author refused and invited the guests to help. But instead, the guests went off and made a blog saying the author was selfish, cold, self-centered, egoistic, rude, and what not.

This is what the author of this article and people in that github discussion come over as. If those people came into my workshop and told me how to do things without helping out in any way, I'd rightfully tell them to fuck right off.

Articles like these that are practically demanding change will not and do not improve the dialogue. They are actually bad for opensource as a whole because they give people who don't understand opensource the feeling that they have the right to complain, the right to demand, the right to expect, the right to be entitled to an opinion and an outcome.

That's a thumbs down from me dawg.

The government better sue the train manufacturer and protect these hackers. The hackers saved the state millions - possibly hundreds of millions.

What's up with these trans-memes surrounding linux? Are they just a loud minority?

Oh oh... can we look forward to another wave of reddit leavers after inevitable changes to the site to please investors?

It never ceases to amaze me how people don't read past the title 🤦 There are people debating about -10 to -30C when the article clearly states that it works in those temperatures. Not only does it work, it's twice as efficient as electrical heating at those temperatures.

Twitch is trash. Everywhere I've been, 1080p isn't stable. As soon as I switch over to youtube, 1080p works fine. And their stupid "loading stream UwU" screen when loading it on another page is just annoying.

It also misses the absolutely basic feature or scrubbing - I can't rewind or click back to a previous point in the stream - no. For that, the stream has to have recording activated, then you need to know of /videos on the streamer's page, and finally you can open the "recording". And because it's a recording, you can't "go to live". It jumps back to the very beginning of the stream when it gets to the end "end of the recording", which is whenever you opened it --> opened it 1 hour ago? Once it hits that point again, (no, not live - 1hour but live - 2 hours), it reloads and now you have to remember that it was live - 2 hours.

It's just shit.
