The dumbest thing Democrats did was not referring to tariffs as an Import Tax. A tax you pay to import the goods.

I can still use a 2003 AMD Opteron with the newest builds of Linux. It’s an open standard. As long as the hardware still physically works. The only reason these pieces of hardware are EOL is because they chose to lock them down.

It’s had all the signs of a bubble for the last few years.

Producing an EV battery can generate around 2.5 to 16 metric tons of CO2. 1 Manufacturing a gasoline car produces about 6 tons of CO2 and over its lifetime, an ICE vehicle emits around 35.9 tons of CO2 from fuel production to usage. 2

Are they going to share this data with the open source community or is this just for their proprietary keyboard?

It’s also worth mentioning that the VPN in question, Proton, offers one of the best free tiers of any VPN company.

As long as you have notepad, you’re good.

I’m not going to condone this, but also… haha.

I’m a YouTube creator, part of the partner program, and I also manually upload to TILvids. The videos I make generate about $100-$300 a year through the partner program, so I’m not a professional by any means. It feels like they’re trying to keep creators from leaving by putting up small roadblocks that limit our reach beyond the platform. Given PeerTube’s non-profit model, I see it as a potential future for content sharing. Though there are a few rock stars on YouTube, most of the creators on that platform make little to no money from publishing videos. There are more people like me than Linus Media Group.

Hot take: Good for them.

This will have zero impact on 99% of independent developers. Most small companies can move to an alternative or roll their own infrastructure. This will only really impact large corporations. I’m all for corporation-on-corporation violence. Let them fight.

I’ll check that out. Thanks.

My system is to duplicate to fresh media once in a while. It’s more hands on, but it’s the only option I have. My NAS will be cloned to new drives in the next few years.

My laptop has two USBC ports. No logos of any kind. They are Thunderbolt 4. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I believe there is already plans in the timeline to bring Tumblr to the fediverse.

It’s becoming impossible to monitor. I have 5G Broadband Internet and I share a public IP address with everyone in my area. I look at https://iknowwhatyoudownload.com and it shows thousands of torrents that my neighbors have pulled downloaded.

It’s a good thing that ChatGPT is only one of the many LLM’s to choose from.

They started putting ads in Windows, a few users switched, but most still continue Windows.

Google will roll this out and a few users will switch, but most will just keep using Chrome.

We’ve already established that most users don’t seem to care.

The Ender 3 is the printer I recommend new users get. It’s open source hardware and firmware, the devices can be found for as little as $20 sometimes. Bambu Studio, UltiMaker Cura, and PrusaSlicer, and probably loads more are all awesome slicer software that is compatible with a LARGE number of 3D printers.

Not compatible with Firefox is the fastest way to know they don’t follow web standards. On brand.

Not easy to switch a secured 4,000+ workstation business. Plus, a lot of companies get their support, license, and managed email from one vendor. It’s bundled in such a way that it would cost MORE to deploy Linux. (And that very much on purpose)
