I had no idea LibreWolf supports Firefox Sync, that's pretty much the only reason I'm using Firefox so I'll definitely try it out.

It’s not like “freedom” because open source software was a term invented only a few decades ago. Definitions that stray from this definition do so for a very obvious reason in every case I’ve ever seen, and that reason is profit. You can’t

It's certainly not ambiguous, but the reason why companies like CockroachDB and others would like to make it appear so certainly is obvious. Anyone confused can just be referred to "The Open Source Definition"[1] by the OSI.

It's honestly getting tiresome reading about yet another company that rides on the wave of open source for popularity and growth, but only for as long as it suits their own bottom line. Just like every other example, the page is filled

Many large corporations are just structured on modern feudalism with minor changes. They have a privileged nobility, an internal belief system (with attached clergy to match), and by definition a large majority "working the land".

Using yt-dlp to download video files is great too because it has support for sponsorblock[1] which will then automatically remove the segments you choose from the file. [1]: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp?tab=readme-o

This sounds like a reasonable point, but the more I think about it, the more it sounds like digital flagellation. IPv6 was released in 1998. It had been 21 (!) years since the release of IPv6 and still what you're describing had not be

One of the problems with the US being a two party state is exactly this, people conflate political parties with the institutions themselves, which is not great.

What would ``` add that you can't already do with two indents? Beyond that, I think support for ```sh type highlighting would be awful, one of the best things about HN is how clean it is, I'd hate to see syntax highlighting or pic

I don't really understand the decision to completely stop doing it. If the script has logic to do A,B,C in different cases, why not just implement an --uninstall flag that does the opposite of A,B,C? Then users don't need to know

Is there anything stopping anyone from making it a flatpak and maintaining it? I'm personally not surprised that they're reluctant to take on more maintenance responsibility than necessary.

It's not uncommon that the curl | sh method actually, among other things, detect what distro you're running and add the repos before installing via the package manager, so in the end it depends on what the script actually does. At

Yes, if the script you're running adds a repository and uses the native package manager, which is not always the case.

I bought one of those thin Lenovo clients for about $200 and use it as a home server with Debian, it works great for pretty much everything and is a lot more bang for your buck than raspberry pi or a brand new mini-pc. The only downside is

This is a badly written and hyperbolic article. What does "server side injection" actually mean? The article also touches on SponsorBlock, which in my mind would have no problems skipping whatever "injected" ads show up

I love Debian too, but what you described was demonstrably false back when they didn’t include non-free firmware on the installation media. Honestly I think this might be one of the reasons Ubuntu got popular back in the day to begin with,

This almost sounds like a sketch since Sweden has “Norway jokes” where the punchline is consistently how dumb Norwegians are — a structure that I’m sure is mirrored in Norway and similarly in other countries (england/scotland, france&#
