Why not replace F-Droid with a catalogue of links to open-source apps hosted in play store?

I assumed the reason there are so many job offerings for kubernetes engineers is either because these jobs have high churn, or because kubernetes takes more work to maintain. I think linux+nginx+postgres+favourite-lang is still the most sensible way to go. Good engineers don't overcomplicate things.

This page won't load for me "Unavailable Due to the UK Online Safety Act". Why would this law be relevant to a blog-post about AI?

nor my plain 5060

What about the environmental impact of all the extra warehouses they have to build to store the unsellable stock?

What about that text selection bug all OSes have had for 20+ years. I'm dragging to select text, and if I drag one pixel too far, it inverts the selection.

Unfortunately not many humans bother to read my website. If LMMs will read and learn from it then at least my work has some benefit to something.

No syntax highlighting for Clojure :'(

No Emacs keybindings :'(

but then you dont have visibility of what changes you have made. having config management improves visibility of how something is configured

My 2008 Honda doesnt. Good to know some cars are doing this now.

I always wondered why cars dont give an indication when a bulb blows. Should be pretty easy to do and improve road safety.

:o

but almost no-one actually uses bitcoin as a currency

wow, great game!

Hi, author here, I can't send you a sample because of copyright but get "scare force one" by Lordi on CD and rip it into any format.

Google search has always been successful because it was the best. Seems they don't want to be the best anymore.

Most shared hosts are scams that dissable your account if you get any traffic. But Mythic Beasts is great I host 5 websites on them for the cost of a panini. They host my email too, works fine.

lol the mac is 5 year old

it tested it, it works fine

Of course I use bookmarks, how else could I remember websites.

LWN.net - news for the Free Software community

I just don't know what this guy's complaining about. My PC is ancient and FireFox is responsive with dosens of tabs open.

I walk to the local store every morning and buy the newspaper. I live in England and I read the Guardian Mon-Sat and the Observer on Sunday.

I, the author, have added a clarification on why freedom 0 is unnecessary:

Basically I value Free Software for two reasons: 1. I think it's irresponsible and dangerous for us to be doing all of our computing using technology we cannot understand or maintain. 2. I think community software development is great fun.

Freedom 1, 2 and 3 are all needed for these things, but freedom 0 is not.

If you want to do x, and the license on some software forbids x, then you use a different software. It's no different than if the software were simply unsuitable for x.

Me too. Google can do what they want but they don't own the Internet.

thank god

It should be great to give corps and government even more control over us.

I just write my blog direct in HTML and host it on a Raspberry pi running FreeBSD and darkhttpd: http://www.naughtycomputer.uk/

never knew it existed until today
