AI industry would reindustrialise what exactly?
type0··on What we talk about when we talk about sideloading
> criminally cheap and powerful, open phone ecosystem.

It wouldn't, you need drivers for your modem, gpu, gps etc. It's encumbered with patents and "prohibited" software circumvention techniques, you're right about one thing it would be regarded as criminally offensive by our current legal system.

Speaking of android, if iOS had jailbreaking, maybe we need a bigger prisonbreaking from Google

type0··on French ex-president Sarkozy begins jail sentence

type0··on No I don't want to turn on Windows Backup with One Drive
They do change the settings to opt you in and move them around after updates, it's such a cat and mouse game, but the user is the mouse

He's the one screaming "Dude, where's my Chat Control?" the loudest, but there are a lot of those digital-Stasi politicians

have you tried Kalpa? kalpadesktop.org

it should be like Aeon but with KDE

type0··on Beginner Guide to VPS Hetzner and Coolify
I was using pre-charged account until waiting for a new bank account and credit card. I wasn't even hosting any VPS for a month or so, but Hetzner closed my account with no explanation, never got my money back. F*ck them, thieves.

type0··on Digital ID – The New Chains of Capitalist Surveillance
For the most part it doesn't go as far as the arrest but it gives the right for police to do "a sustained campaign of harassment and abuse against one or more named individuals" because their kids are posting unpopular memes on social media

UK is in big trouble, it's a naughty nanny state

type0··on Sora 2
it should be renamed into sore ai
type0··on Codeberg Reaches 300k Projects
> Coderberg is hostile towards private repos

Get real. It's a community project with limited resources. If they had the money for hosting I'm sure that would be offered for FOSS projects, which their bylaws requires to focus on.

type0··on Jane Goodall has died
Yeah but his tail was amputated, my neighbour had a cat without tail, bitten off by a dog or something, it's not that uncommon.

as far as I know you can't be a racist against SoC

type0··on Testing the Raspberry Pi 500+'s new mechanical keyboard
> RK35XX Devices are available and beat pis at almost every task.

teoretical performance, yes

practicality, no

availability, no

community, no

manufacturer support, no

expandability, no

etc etc

type0··on Testing the Raspberry Pi 500+'s new mechanical keyboard
I would argue that 400 is not a good value either, for that price you have to deal with occasionally broken file-system because caused by sd card and terrible keyboard. Not a good experience for beginner or a learning child.

People like to criticise x64 but getting a thin client from ebay and ESP32 GPIO board is probably the best bang for your buck.

No one buys raspberry pi to save money anymore, you buy it because you want to use Arm architecture and ability to use Android builds like LineageOS.

type0··on Typst: A Possible LaTeX Replacement
Is typst prefect, of course not, but it's good enough for most people. LaTeX on the other hand is the primary example where perfect is the enemy of the good.
type0··on Titanic's sister, Britannic, sank in 1916. Divers have recovered artifacts
As far I understand Brittanic never operated as a luxury cruise ship.

same as previous written statements

blah, blah, strengthening governance, blah, blah

again, conflating code and rubygems.org service

anyway it's about "protecting the Ruby community"

type0··on Bundler Belongs to the Ruby Community

membership in github org is still a membership

type0··on YouTube says it'll bring back creators banned for Covid and election content
