This is absurd.
A reasonable law would have been to require operating systems meant for individual use to ship either parental control software, or a disclaimer to the fact they do not ; and then specifiy what features said parental controls are to have, with a certification badge (just like Energy Star) for verified systems and/or add-on parental control software.
I use NixOS on everything ! This way, I can re-use parts of my configuration as a base, and customise only the few things that need to change from one machine to the other.
The only exception is my Steam Deck. I trust Valve on that one, and my usage of it is so different from other computers as to make 95% of my config entirely irrelevant anyway.
First they came for our jobs, next our hobbies, now for our very entertainment ? Who could ever ask for a feature such as this !?
Switzerland is not a safe jurisdiction.
Since I have to carry a keyboard anyway, I’m just going to carry a full laptop instead.
Do not link Lunduke in here. He is, literally, an insane bigot.
It does not matter how factual or not the particular thing he is reporting on in this particular instance is.
One of the chief things that make macbooks commendable over PCs is the build quality. While I don’t doubt there are very many PCs with better hardware at that price point, often macs are superior by robustness, display resolution, and the quality of their keyboards and trackpads.
I hope this cheaper model doesn’t cheap out on that front. And if it also gets good Asahi Linux support, then it would get me to recommend it above anything else.
We will see soon enough.
But if they partnered with GrapheneOS, there could have been a concerted effort to remedy that.
Welp. This comment has completely killed all my enthusiasm for matrix 😅 I had no idea it was such a horrible mess under the hood…
I’m trying to move some communities off Discord to something self hosted but I don’t know enough about SMPP to know if it would do the job.
50 people is an irrelevant sample size. Just because the findings seem to make sense doesn’t mean the study is good.
Well, fuck. I really hoped they would pick FairPhone. Motorola is… Okay. I guess they made the Nexus 5 ; which was one of the best phones ever.
I hope they make a SMALL one, I am so tired of this GIGANTIC pixel 9.
👏🏻 We 👏🏻 demand 👏🏻 public 👏🏻 executions 👏🏻
Okay, but, good AI does not exist for now… So this should mean she’s intolerant to all AI, which is obviously not true ; ergo : she’s lying.
Well, she chose AI, so she’s already failed !
Good job. It won’t succeed thanks to your privilege, because it won’t succeed at all !
As a Computer Scientist, I increasingly believe this tech might actually be poison for the human mind, and I’m not sure what to do about it.
I want to believe we can make it actually useful. But I don’t know if that’s possible or not.
Of course I use SecureBoot, if you know how to set it up it has no inconvenients ! But that doesn’t go all the way up to the apps !
I have no idea what life was like before systemd so while I like it I have no way to compare
I was enthusiastic about LadyBird until I learnt that the guy leading the project i s a white supremacist, via pivot-to-ai.
Now I hope either someone else takes it over, or that it crashes and burns.
You know what ? If this law is only imposed on commercial operating systems, and I can make my free OS lie and say I’m 100+ ; then maybe this could work.
Little do they know this is eating at people’s YouTube addiction !
