Devin Townsend was without a doubt one of the best artists I’ve seen live last year. I limed his music for the longest time, and got tickets the day before the concert, and it was so damn good. It wasn’t anything fancy, just awesome interaction with the crowd and amazing music.

I saw them two years ago, and I was amazed by how radically the stage shifted between songs. The band members were struggling bouncing around though 😅

There are various obstacles to “just forking” a project; it requires times to understand the frameworks / libraries used in the project, understand the code and its different parts and last but not least, have a interest to invest that time and energy (most often, that time could be spent developing your own solution that would fit your usecase better).

As for the stage I was referring to, both the theories of enshittification and rot-economy see software and services going through stages to attract new users, before going in for the profit maximizing.

What’s wrong with Ubuntu and RH? Is it because of the snaps / source code debacle? Both of those had solid business cases to them and while I dislike the outcome, I do understand why they made that choice and most importantly - I still appriciate what each company does for FOSS.

My two examples are of OS SaaS that got their plug pulled before they got to that stage. See skiff.com and omnivore.

Fully agree, but part of the problem is that the fundamentals that our technology relies on to communicate is arcane (DNS, IP, etc.). The other problem is that were often trying to translate human experiences and needs to a binary and technological format, which cannot be done in simple terms and creates complexity.

I don’t expect us being able to move away from current jank-stack technologies anytime soon.

I really like this explanation. Not many are aware of how telegram was designed to make it as cumbersome for authorities as possible by splitting their data across different nations.

I’d be more than happy to see all links pointing to xitter banned. FB/Meta would be nice too, but I think it’s more important to sending a clear signal on neo-nazi salutes being a red line.

Swede here who frequents Austria. I agree, and I love drinking the water while hiking in Austria.

If you visit Sweden, our water is mostly as good as the one in Austria. Some exceptions are Gotland because of high chalk (so? “Kalk”) levels.

One of the main points of the article is not how it affects one as a individual, but how impacts the very social fabric of our societies. Even if you’re spared from the effects of the rot economy, you’re surrounded by people who are, and it impact them psychologically which in turn affects their mood, well being and their behavior towards their peers.

While I don’t agree with everything in this article, it has some very important points. The digital services that we use can have an impact on our digital daily lives on par to a governments.

This isn’t a call for every person to save themselves. This is a call to save our peers and our well being on a macro level.

It’s a shell, like sh, bash and zsh, but very user friendly and has great defaults OOB.

I have a surface Go Gen1 and linux worked flawlessly on it. The bootup was tricky af though.

There is a tiny linux surface community that I created here on Lemmy, ask your questions there and I’ll be happy to help (while making the answers avaible to others In the same situation): https://lemmy.ml/c/surfacelinux

I enjoyed the beginning of Raised by wolves, but once it started to get “creative” (the levitating offspring…) I lost interest. Which is a shame because this was a high quality series.

But proton drive soaent have a linux client yet, I suppose you just upload your files there once through the web interface and don’t sync?

I like Lemmy and mastodon, lobster.rs, hn-news and bbs.geminispace.org

Well, lobbyists work not only for evil corpos, but also for NGOs and movements… Lobbyism is the process to sway politics to a direction through interpersonal meetings, and is necessarily in a democracy.

However, one thing that would benefit the US is transparency around lobbyists; who they are, how they are funded, their agenda etc. The EU has a database on registered lobbyists and the transparency helps with parts of the problem.

Fzf is so useful its ridiculous. I recreated the functionality of sshs with fzf and a small bash script.

How does screen / tmux work when detached from a session, how does it keep the session alive (both when running locally, and while ssh:ing to a server)? Is there a daemon involved?

Try zellij. Not as popular as tmux, but very intuitive to use.
