  • The Play Store is a frustrating mess — here are 7 issues Google must fix in 2026

    Jump

  • Android is NOT open source. AOSP is, but the android distributions you get on a retail phone add proprietary and closed source features atop AOSP. It is at best open-core but even that is questionable given the release cadence of AOSP

  • Would an ActivityPub enabled fediverse alternative of Discord be possible?

    Jump

  • I exclusively use Mateo for social experiences. I’m in servers and group chats for clubs, communities, and even Lemmy instances. Works great

  • NSFW

  • The word woke triggers such a Pavlovian response in me, like my whole mood goes straight to annoyed and irritated every time. Why do these reactionary fucks steal AAVE as their meaningless verbal cudgels as well, extra salt in the wound

  • Wine 11 brings huge WoW64 overhaul, NTSYNC boost, and better gaming on Linux

    Jump

  • The Mac ecosystem has its own set of tooling for this. It uses Apple’s Rosetta 2 for x86 to ARM translation, and their Game Porting Toolkit (GPTK) for DX12 to Metal (Apple’s proprietary graphics API) translation.

    (Should note that Asahi doesn’t have full support for M4 Macs yet so I’m assuming they’re on MacOS)

  • Gimp Heal Selection Tool - Resynthesizer

    Jump

  • That use case makes it sound like you’re looking for a vector editor, like Krita

  • How commercially-available phone location data is used by ICE (and other law enforcement agencies)

    Jump

  • Bring it but powered off in a faraday bag. If an emergency strikes you’ll be glad to have the option.

  • Wrap it Up, We're Done Here

    Jump

  • My ex dealt with this a lot. She has chronic health problems, and one of her specialists moved to an LLM based ‘scribe.’ It would routinely misinterpret her, littering her official file with symptoms she didn’t have, claiming she hadn’t tried remedies she’d explicitly said she tried, and hallucinating all sorts of other garbage. Then at the next appointment, the doctor would open by just reading this garbage off and chiding her for not doing x, claiming she had y but then saying it was z, etc. And the whole appointment would turn into correcting the record instead of anything productive. So frustrating and irresponsible

  • Switzerland to freeze any Maduro assets ‘with immediate effect’

    Jump

  • Fascist collaborators to their core

  • They have no idea what they're doing

    Jump

  • Maybe Trump & co really believed their propaganda line about him being a dictator, and now don’t know what to do since the whole country isn’t groveling at their feet for snatching him up

  • Was the liberal revolution in France justified? What about the reign of terror? Was it right to support Napoleon through it all, even after he became an emperor?

    Jump

  • Yes, yes but it was excessive and needed more oversight, mixed opinion. Napoleon as emperor was still vastly more progressive of a system than what any monarch of Europe was overseeing. But he was a man of contradictions with an administration of contradictions. He rolled back many wins of the revolution, but protected and spread many of its other core principles to the end. I think those trying to depose him from the left were absolutely correct, and those defending his reign from the reactionary powers of the coalition also had legitimate progressive reasons to do so. I don’t like Napoleon though, his greed for power contributed to destabilizing and neutering the revolution.

  • Lmaoo, I see your name now you’re funny

  • We still do research and have lots of work to do before a paper even begins lol

  • Genuinely why are people calling maduro a dictator?

    Jump

  • What evidence could you possibly have to say he’s a dictator?

    He’s a dictator

    This shit isn’t even a thought terminating cliche, because you didn’t have a thought to begin with

  • do you drink the day old black coffee or are you BOURGEOIS

    Jump

  • No way dude, I make a full French press and drink it all by 11. But I wouldn’t dare drink it cold unless it was brewed cold or iced on the spot

  • Y'know I wouldn't get so pissy at winter if the snow that fell wasn't always followed up by a glaze of freezing rain to entomb it and make it 500x harder to shovel up.

    Jump

  • I love winter time. I grew up somewhere tropical and didn’t get winter as a kid, and now that I live somewhere with harsh winters I look forward to every snowflake. The work that comes with it is fine, it’s fun to be in the snow. What a gift it is to bundle up and crunch through fresh snow

  • Happy Dies Natalis Solis Invicti to those who celebrate

    Jump

  • Makin some Globi for Saturnalia

  • WEEKLY BLOOMER THREAD: If you have some good vibes to share, share them here!

    Jump

  • Had a fun hackathon at work, got to buy a Christmas gift for the girl I’ve been seeing, and we had two meteor showers this month (Geminid earlier and Ursid last night)!

  • got tired of dwm lmao

  • This is not what libadwaita is. Libadwaita is their modern unified library for the adwaita theme

  • So weird, part of the night sky tonight was blinking every five seconds.

    Jump

  • I’d say probably something shining consistently but getting obscured by clouds or whatever else is most likely. Could also be something like a geostationary satellite but I think those would have very dim reflections at their orbital distance
