  • Projects are shutting down due to Microslop's Github CoPilot making AI contributions easy and plentiful

    Jump

  • I think the open source requirement is holding them back, people also want to start projects without immediately making them open source. Maybe they don't know it yet.

    These people, if they want to avoid github, will host their own private gitlab instance, or use just a local git repo, or another private repo, until they decide to make it public.

    I think this makes a big contribution the disparity.

    To add, I think it's fine, as long as anyone can clone the github. It's not like I have any solution to this.

  • Meta Ray-Bans send 'sensitive' videos to human data annotators

  • Pmwiki: own format, no access control, I would say it is a bit outdated.

  • Electrical help — transformers for worktable lamps

  • Just be careful. I do not mean to sound condescending, but it seems you lack basic understanding of electronics. That combined with mains power is deadly. Don't do it unless you're sure.

    If they are indeed LED lights, you would need a DC adapter with a DC output voltage such as 12V. This voltage you should know at this point. It is safe to work with UNLESS you open the transformer. DON'T OPEN THE TRANSFORMER(s), rather fix them under the table and use an extension cord.

    If they need AC, it is definitely something else than 220V or there would be no transformer. Do not proceed unless you're sure what you're doing.

  • Is it me, or does Linux Mint have terrible file search?

    Jump

  • For finding files by name, I use the locate command in terminal

  • Is it me, or does Linux Mint have terrible file search?

    Jump

  • Does this search file content or just path names?

  • I wonder how much money the movie Risky Business made for hospitals from guys trying to imitate Tom Cruise.

    Jump

  • Hospitals making money, that's a fucked up shower thought.

  • spacecowboy/Feeder: Android feed reader app - GPL-3.0 licence - made by a Swede

    Jump

  • Well, you are entitled to your opinion. I find it perfect as it is.

  • spacecowboy/Feeder: Android feed reader app - GPL-3.0 licence - made by a Swede

    Jump

  • You have to know some RSS feeds and insert them in the app.

    If you used RSS before, you prbably have a list of favorite feeds already.

    When done, you can easily export the config in a human readable json format.

  • Windows 11 is finally killing off legacy printer drivers in 2026 — and it’s going to shake up a lot of older hardware

    Jump

  • A massive reason must be the security concerns with them, with no upkeep from the manufacturer. And since they aren't open source (some of the sources are probably lost by now) no-one else can fix the problems. These old drivers are essentially like backdoors into your system. You actually don't want to have them around.

    This is why Linux and other open source software is the only right way. Plug these old devices into Linux, they probably just work due to some hero reverse-engineering them.

    We should only buy hardware that has open source drivers. Eventually, the companies should be forced to deliver sources, at least after support ends, and this should be enforced with right to repair style laws.

  • Which RSS are you using?

    Jump

  • Reccommend me a EU webbased RSS extension please.

  • I'm not sure what you mean, I use Feeder on android, that's all I need. Can recommend. No need to self host anything...?

  • Trump accused of role in Epstein’s death in tip sent to FBI, files reveal

  • "The disgraced financier’s brother included his personal contact information and IP address in the submission, both of which are redacted in the publicly released file."

    Hey, here's my IP address, feel free to contact me... Said no-one ever. Mistake by the writer? They must mean E-mail

  • Syncthing Backup w Raspberry Pi

  • Duplicati or Borg for backups. Guis exist for borg as well.

  • Is it safe the new Syncthing-Fork v2.0.14 on F-Droid?

    Jump

  • I understood the repo changed hands in a shady way, with bad communication. Might be fine or not. I would also like to know, I'm not a user but was going to be just when it happened, and I postponed it
