This is a misleading characterization of the issue here. Let me pull up another very relevant analogy here. Let's say that you visit a government office for a driving license. Should you pay a bribe to the official? You are a responsib

I often find myself searching for information that's not from my locality. This sort of 'location personalization' frustrate such efforts so much that I rarely 'google' these days. What's the point of having ac

Ah! Yes! I was wondering about the diacritics/accents. How do you deal with those? Do you have to switch keyboard layouts like me, or are they trivial additions to the qwerty layout?

FOSS has been here for a long time, and it will be here for a long time. It's often driven by self-motivation. Let's instead focus on the AI bubble that's 17 times the size of the dotcom bubble[1], and kept inflated primarily

Antiquated and insufficient equipments have certainly caused serious accidents in the past. So better equipment is always welcome. But the current bottleneck seems to be the humans who are supposed to use those equipment to make complex dec

Conflicts are cases where the merge algorithm can't unambiguously determine the correct way to resolve the resulting code from multiple candidates. Normal merge algorithms like git's 'ort' use very simple and naive logic

It's the latter - podman just sets up all the necessary stuff - namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, network, mounts, etc - and then executes the child. No monitoring whatsoever. The best you can do is to have it listen on the socket it uses

The problem is that all those forks are beholden to Mozilla's corporate interests the same way the chromium derivatives are beholden to Google's corporate interests. What we need is one of the newer independent engines to mature -

They have also removed the web UI and stopped updating the documentation for the community edition. The former is not extremely serious as the community can easily replace it. The latter is arguably the worst among all the changes that we k

I agree with all the points you make. Just adding a detail to the following bit: > 1. MinIO is a business and they don't owe anything to anyone for free. I don't think MinIO discontinuing the free docker image is really the pro

Just a nitpick. The real use of cat is to concatenate two or more files and dump the result in its stdout. But people use it more like file viewer these days. Bat is a file viewer in every sense. I have concatenated multiple files using bat

May I remind that the real bad news is that Chrome will keep third party cookies around, used primarily for cross-site tracking. The deceivingly named 'Privacy Sandbox' was only marginally better than alternative tracking methods

by goku12 1y ago
Wait! How was it against third-party tracking, when its entire purpose was to present advertisers with an alternative to tracking with third party cookies or browser fingerprinting? Yes, Google argued that it was designed to preserve the pr

They were going to have to choose a name for the entire document series, irrespective of the stage of evolution each document is in. I don't have a good answer to why they choose RFC for it, though a sibling comment does address that p

There are NIPs (for Nostr), PEPs (for Python)... But they all have the problem that parent is complaining about. The possibilities/proposal part of the names remain even after they have been accepted or rejected.

> It looks from the docs that uv may also support it? I was just repeating what chatgpt told me - that uv does the same thing as npm. The documentation wasn't clear about exactly what it does either. So I had to confirm it using str

Fair as in fairness. An alternative that plays fairly with me by respecting my rights as a consumer. And yes, I agree that there are multiple alternatives. The problem is that they are not viable yet. Most of them are buggy and missing cruc

I seriously dislike articles like these. Not because they're wrong, but because of how they frame it. It's due to the issues they choose to focus on. Yes, it's true that the electric grids around the world are straining due t

Please file bug reports or feature requests when you find them, if they haven't been filed already. Don't just leave silently. And not just for halloy, but for all FOSS projects in general. The developers/maintainers can choo

That's certainly not the case here, even if it's true sometimes. The duopoly is gradually tightening their grip on the customers' wallets. It's worth it at any stage to reverse their cash grab.

What we really need is a fair alternative to both these abuse platforms. Choosing an unfamiliar abuse over a familiar abuse isn't exactly the smartest move. The switch over to a free(dom) platform like plain Linux must happen even if w

A smaller company would at least be less capable of ignoring the fines or the loss of market share. Or in other words, "too big to fail".
