That's nothing to do with religion. It's just having values. You can have values without religion.

Haha this is a totally Woz thing to do <3 He's a genuinely nice guy, not one of those hard-as-nails business types like most IT CEOs. I'd love to work for a company he'd run. It might not be as successful as the others but

But then you have constant maintenance. I prefer rolling distros, don't get me wrong. But it does mean you will get the latest of every package constantly and some cause problems. For a box that sits in a corner doing its joband you do

Microsoft is a very human company. It ingests delicious things and turns them into piles of shit and hot air.

Bluetooth and WiFi on a mobile device don't have enough range for this stuff. You need to be too close to other participants. Hence LoRa. Yes, 5G would be an option but the licensed spectrum (and firmware restriction) makes that imposs

Not on the 13" no but they could have made the touch pad slightly smaller. For me touch keys will never work, like the other poster said I need tactile feedback. Apple's keyboards are pretty bad at that already by the way, even th

The difference it's that in the physical case the choice is up to the library, in the other it's forced upon them by the publisher.

They're not really "hit". It's more like lashing out at thin air :) They'll find new domains.

The relationship with Alcohol in many European countries is a bit different anyway. In some nordic countries you can only buy it in official state-owned stores (and it is incredibly expensive due to taxes).

Yeah they could just take the open whisper model which really is great especially if you use the larger parameter versions. I love it.

#1 bothered me the most. A lot. And the stupid thing was that there was plenty of space for a row of function keys and the touch bar.

No, but I think this is more because it takes them so much effort replicating the basic functionality and compatibility with e.g. android apps that they just don't have the energy for it. Also, the hardware for good peer to peer commun

Thanks! I was looking for that. I see they use those cheapo Chinese RF modules (SA818). I've seen those also with SDR input/output, that's interesting. The underlying chip is very similar: The chip that will be used in this m

P2P capabilities aren't what the providers and governments want. The providers don't want it because they can't charge you for it. The governments don't like to see people communicate outside of their control. See how Ap

Nice!! I wish it could do DMR though. Analog isn't used to much anymore in these parts. Although to be more precise, HAM radio has declined a lot but DMR repeaters are linked in groups so it seems like there's a lot more activity.

I think that term refers more to the conflict of interest that now exists.

No I have the explicit PIN turned on. That means it requires a Pin entry on each boot. It's not the recovery screen though it looks similar. It's also not a password that's then hashed. It unlocks the TPM with a short pin, th

Here in Europe it's different, we have more rights. Unfortunately I don't have an official diagnosis but I'm definitely neurodivergent. I've been meaning to get one but it is difficult.

That is also a thing yeah. It's not really unethical or illegal but our VP has a huge preference for snazzy glitzy projects and never wants to tackle the problems that cause real pain in the organisation because they are not spectacula

I'm not a software engineer at all. And I tend to take on projects nobody else wants because they are too complicated or esoteric. And I didn't say I'm not capable of being part of a team. Just that I need to have my own resp

Yeah I'm getting a lot of pressure to be a "team player" lately. I've told them over and over I'm not capable of that and that has never been a problem before. But we have a hipster new VP who is really pushy and wa

To be honest if I got fired in a mean or unfair way I'd definitely hit back at my employer in such a manner if I'd have the ability to. I'm unlikely to have that though as I'm not aware of any saucy company secrets. But

If you prefer self hosting that's not a viable alternative.

by wolvoleo 6mo ago
Well the first thing they can do is block access to self hosted servers in the official app. And they could petition Google to not allow clones in the play store. Together with Google's sideloading harassment that will make it much har

Both those options sound horrible. Personally I prefer to just get stuff done at work. Not to waste time on meetings and synergy but no orchestration either.

Like I just said in another thread, all this reminds me so much of that scene in Mr. Robot where they make a CIO set millions of dollars on fire. Sometimes I feel like the leadership doesn't even know what they're at. They just wa
