Can confirm that Germany is cucked by fascists and only getting worse. AfD is on the rise and doesn’t seem to be slowing down.

I would agree in the past but in the last few years this site has doubled down on the silicon valley brand of techno-fascism and I just can’t read the comments without losing faith in “hacker culture” at this point.

I build cross platform desktop software professionally.

Because of this I have to use and pretty deeply understand the inner workings of every OS.

I can state as absolute fact that every major operating system including Linux is an absolute pile of hot garbage.

The difference is that macOS and windows are garbage on purpose. There were deliberate decisions to enshitify them for profit. They spent time and money making the OS worse on purpose.

On Linux most of the shitty parts were designed with good intentions but just kinda suck (Wayland for example).

IIRC Pipewire isn’t really designed for pro-audio / music production. So if you want to do these things, Jack is still kind of unavoidable.

If you think counting is hard normally, try writing anything that embeds a Lua interpreter (indices start at 1).

I appreciate the sentiment but I’m afraid this is a much too nuanced idea for the masses to understand.

I think it depends on your app I’m not really sure.

But it should be pretty safe to just post it here. If not I can give you my pubic key and you can encrypt the link?

I disagree. It probably won’t be as popular as an app that does have editing features but personally I’m fine with the lack of this feature.

I would also rather just edit photos in another dedicated app. IMO this is in line with the UNIX philosophy and I like that.

Thanks!

How does one get into this line of work?

Can confirm

Human rights issues are not political. The attempt by the right to cast them as political serves to suppress discussion and progress by making the very act of discussing these things at all be seen as taboo. We can’t let that happen.

That point aside, libre software is pretty much inherently political.

How did you design this in a way that it would require a “substantial update” to swap out the API URL? It should be as easy as setting an environmental variable. There are many LLM providers and local LLMs that support the openAI API schema.

Can you expand on this Korea story? That’s not really making sense but I’m curious.

You may find a better answer in the distinction between “profit” and “exploit”.

Does GPL allow a corporation to profit off your work? Yes it does.

Does it allow them to exploit your work? In my opinion, no.

Compared to something like MIT which in my opinion lets them both profit and exploit you.

Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer by any means, just a GPL advocate.

Piracy isn’t stealing regardless.

Stealing is to deprive someone of something they posses.

It’s not possible to possess something that doesn’t exist yet. Your copy doesn’t exist until you make it (by downloading the file).

If you chose to not support creators by paying to copy thier work, that’s maybe unethical but it’s not stealing.

If you hack into a Sony server and copy an unreleased film, then delete their copy, that is maybe stealing. Anything short of that is just copying.

IMO support indie creators when you can. Aside from that, ahoy!

I’m looking on behalf of my partner so I’m not 100% sure the podcasts they want are American but they are English for sure.

Just launch the game from steam
