Why are you doing all project management in Discord?
Six sided devops engineer and baseball fan
I am also @Quill7513@slrpnk.net, but this is my primary and more active account. The slrpnk.net account is for ecology and lemmy.world stuff

Why are you doing all project management in Discord?
If someone’s downloading a github repo as a zip I’d consider that a sign they’re not familiar with github lol
I’m sure that if I make a folk replacing the flag with nyancat, davel@lemmy.ml won’t come to tell me that I should change the license and make warnings to those who report it, but to delete worthless nonsense.
This is the only strawman argument I’ve seen in this thread
Mate. You’re the one who says this open source app isn’t relevant to a community discussing open source software. The burden of proof is on you to prove its not relevant. If anything this project is as core to open source as it gets. This person wanted to explore a part of their computer system, picked a target for how to make something happen, did it, and then shared it.
Concluding that you’re a homophobe isn’t based on ad hominem attacks or straw man arguments. Its based on that you have NOTHING substantial to say that this doesn’t belong so the rest of us have to figure out what the hangup is and the only thing we can figure out is that its controversial because its about LGBTQIA+ pride and you don’t like that. We’d love to reach a different conclusion but you haven’t given us a lot to work with
Kinda seems like that’s everyone who has a hangup on this’ REAL hangup, doesn’t it
It used to be more browsable and less infested with every top ad being ad spam and whale crunching, but ad spam and whale crunching apps make google the most money
I think the argument would be that if money is freedom of speech then so should surveillance capitalism
How is this not relevant to open source ideology?
Some stuff won’t work such as android auto
I feel for the guy. Had health issues and needed money fast. I kinda don’t blame him. Like I get its disappointing and I also won’t blame people being mad at him, but I’m more mad at the overall system of how things get funding
We’re British imperialists at the end if the day. We traveled across the seas to a new continent and destroyed it for… So little benefit
Their packages are consistently named differently than their Ubuntu/Debian counterpart
I agree with all your points, but this one has way more to do with Debian being a bunch of weirdos about how packages are packaged. Its really more of a Debian demerit than anything since sometimes their packaging practices can be somewhat hostile to projects not directly associated with Debian, especially since the Debian community can have a certain “Our way is the only right way” attitude. That said, the Debian packaging standards can make it easier as a developer to experiment with creating a software package to interact with an existing package. Like there’s a reason to do it that I can support and I wish Debian packagers would more often say “we package things like this so people can experiment” instead of “Everyone else does packaging wrong and our way is the only way”
Its not a good noob distro. Its a test bed development distro. There are going to be things in Fedora that are broken on account of those things being in development. I believe there’s a rolling release now which improves the lack of long term releases, but for a long time trying to auto upgrade between point releases was a fast track to the very worst time of your life.
Then there’s the question of whether or not its association with Redhat and IBM makes it a safe choice long term given that they’ve gone full hostile. I just don’t see the benefit to going with Fedora as a noob instead of something designed for noobs like LMDE

That and Disney decided they wanted to break (sorry. Let me use the business terms. “Disrupt”) the market by having a vertical integration of streaming platform and production company. The thing is, it did great for the in the short term, but may have harmed them long term. Meanwhile everyone else is now chasing the model that may actually be losing Disney money because short term greed is the only driver in our economy
Okay but that’s ALSO what Peacock is. Look at peacock’s catalog and Netflix catalog and tell me its better rather than just different
So. You don’t need fixed. You’re fine. You’re going through life and you’ll figure out what works for you as you go.
That said, it does kinda seem like you have a misconception about what therapy is. Its not about making you fit in with the rest of the world. Its about helping you accept yourself, appreciate yourself, and love yourself for who you are. I won’t tell you to try it since you so specifically said you didn’t want people saying that, but I hope someone else reading this finds something to connect with on a journey of self love and self acceptance
Let me take this opportunity to get on my soapbox to sat this:
NBC / Universal were one of the first movers in streaming with Seeso. Did they learn lessons from Seeso about how to run a good streaming service? No they abandoned it almost immediately basically saying “this whole streaming thing is just a fad, anyway”
The results? Now its hard to watch those old (genuinely excellent) Seeso shows, and NBC / Universal has managed to make itself late to the streaming party when they were a first actor. And the service itself? Ass. Total cheeks. Major butt. Absolute balloon knot. It always has technical issues AND scanning within an episode is hard because it doesn’t do it in chunks, it acts like a slider in constant motion.
Conclusion: don’t look at Peacock as the idiot child of the streaming landscape. View it as the logical conclusion to media companies’ corporate greed. They want you to pay money for a service that sucks, that’s chock full of ads (oh! That’s another thing. Where do you get off showing me three minutes of ads, Peacock, who do you think you are?), and doesn’t even work decently right while a lot of these UX problems have been solved for over two decades (DVD scanning is easy and fine).
Less hardware support than Linux without enough substantially better about it to make it anyone’s clear preference. Which isn’t to say it doesn’t have advantages over Linux. Just that the average BSD user is going to be able to easily swallow their pride and run Linux if things went wrong with a BSD install (trust me, I’ve literally done this, these people do exist)
