Even KDE1 and KDE2 were very good for their time.

Yep, another case of XKCD 2347, unfortunately.

There is always libexpat, which works very well, also for the streaming case.

I mean, the main character is a washed out, aging, drug junkie has-been, of course he makes bad choices. :)

Yeah, I think GTK2 would be a better candidate to keep maintaining. GTK3 is where it started to go to hell in a handbasket.

We're doomed, when even supposed experts, working on these "AI" tools can't help but anthropomorphize those tools. "when edge cases emerge that the AI didn't anticipate" The only "anticipation" t

That the values could have been extracted to an array of structs, and iterated over in a small cycle that calls the function for each set of values.

One of Europe's less developed countries. An app to use that is closest to Google Maps experience is probably Mapy.com. It has decent navigation capability for cars, bikes and pedestrians, both in and out of cities, and slick UI. Also

I'm in one of Europe's slightly less developed countries. And I can only recommend getting into mapping as a hobby. It got me to discover parts of my own city and region I've completely overlooked despite living there for dec

I guess that's country-specific. Over here, Google Maps has woefully outdated business info, apart from big names like McDonald or Starbucks. And I'm not even talking about building shapes, sidewalks, paths, or even roads. Meanwhi

What do you mean, "doesn't support Pixels with locked bootloader"? Yes, you need the bootloader unlocked to install GOS, but the last step during installation is locking the bootloader again. Having an unlocked bootloader is

There is no single biggest thing. GrapheneOS has a rather strict demands for a device they're willing to support, see https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices

No, the "key factor" of GrapheneOS is to provide a secure OS on a secure hardware. If the "key factor" was to be independent from Google, they wouldn't support Google devices at all. But since the Pixel phones are t

The creation of those licenses, maybe. Their mass popularization, and the pooh-poohing of GPL licenses that often goes with it in related discussions, is much more recent.

That could be an argument against automating anything, ever. The solution is just like with any other automation - document it.

The misguided parenthetical aside, this is not about resources being public, this is about bad actors accessing those resources in a highly inefficient and resource-intensive manner, effectively DDOS-ing the source.

Each profile in GrapheneOS is encrypted separately, and switching profiles require entering a PIN (plus additional biometric methods if you set them up for that profile) before the data is decrypted and accessible. So yes, you can hand the

Luckily, fediverse has an account-to-website verification feature, see https://joinmastodon.org/verification . Mr. Tatham's account on hachyderm.io uses it, so we can be reasonably certain that it's the correct ac

You are wrong. It means that whoever owns the website marked as verified also owns the social account. See https://joinmastodon.org/verification for a quick overview of how it works.

Technically not true. We were muttering "Not cool, Microsoft, not cool!" quite regularly back in the 90s and early 00s. :)

That was a mask the corporation put on in a bid to lure in the younger crowd who doesn't remember all the underhanded stuff Microsoft did in the past. But they haven't really changed at all.

The good news is that every self-hoster will be more than happy to start using this hypothetical self-sovereign solution with their data, if and when it becomes available. I know I would. I'm just not smart enough, nor have the correct

Ah, ok, I didn't think of systemd version changes. Thanks. Regarding your rhetorical question about "the same NIC", I think the problem is in determining whether the NIC is the same, and it is not an easy one to solve. I reme

That can only happen if the emulated hardware layout presented to the VM changes. I'd look at that before calling anything a scam.

Ah, the good old "you're holding it wrong". What good is a speech recognition tool that literally hears imaginary voices?
