I started having arguments online back on Fidonet and Usenet. I'm too tired to care now.

  • Docker Alternative: Podman on Linux

    Jump

  • Serious question: I've been running rootless Docker since it became possible. In what way is it limited compared to using Podman?

  • My open-source project PdfDing is receiving a grant

  • I don't think there's anything ActivityPub related here though? Still seems like some great software.

  • Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons?

    Jump

  • Did this (Mon-Sat) together with a few friends and colleagues in my late 20s. We were regulars to the point of the cook always making something off menu more fitting for regular dinner, as well as no need to settle the bill every night. Once a month everything was tallied up.

    Good times. Had to stop though since I found myself going through the fridge on a Sunday once looking for some alcohol.

    edit: This was the tail end of the 90s btw, small town in Sweden

  • How do you work at a job where you fundamentally disagree with the company's ethics?

  • I have very fond memories from long discussions with people at our legal department, helping them understand the GPL (and FSF as an organisation) resulting in "the company" changing its view on working with GPL code.

  • Asahi Linux Still Working On Apple M3 Support, m1n1 Bootloader Going Rust

    Jump

  • I bought the M1 specifically since it's aarch64. You do your x86_64, I needed native arm for my IoT hacking job ;)

    Jump

  • Basic to you perhaps - but not to me :) I'll do just fine without.

  • Asahi Linux Still Working On Apple M3 Support, m1n1 Bootloader Going Rust

    Jump

  • If you run Asahi Linux of course you could reboot - what you're linking is that the functionality got mainlined.

    I run Asahi on an M1 Macbook Pro and the only functionality I've ever found missing is USB-C video out. It works so well otherwise that I completely forgot it isn't there and sat together with a customer not understanding why I couldn't get a picture up on their presentation screen.

  • The people who protest against the Palestinian Genocide would be the same people who protested against the Holocaust.

  • Are you sure they were not just anti-germanic!?

  • The Sodium-Ion Battery Revolution Has Started

    Jump

  • This is what I've been waiting for as residential battery solution. Really nice to see it starting to take off.

  • Xbox ditching hardware and exclusive games "makes sense," former Microsoft exec and Blizzard boss says, as "only a moron would continue" making consoles as games go third party

    Jump

  • Ah ok, yeah. I expect there to be SteamOS/Bazzite boxes you can just purchase.

    Jump

  • I find SteamOS to be as un-complicated as any other modern console tbh.

  • Xbox ditching hardware and exclusive games "makes sense," former Microsoft exec and Blizzard boss says, as "only a moron would continue" making consoles as games go third party

    Jump

  • Hate to agree but yeah. We're buying everything for Steam now since we put a Steambox (Bazzite) in the gaming room. The PS5s are now just legacy boxes.

  • "Scene don't work for free"

    It's been ~35 years since I cracked games but we most certainly did everything "for free" back then (or, "for bragging rights" as it were).

    I seriously doubt things are that much different now. I'd wager you're one step removed from "the scene" and only seeing shady repacks from scammers.

  • Moderately ethical printer recommendation?

  • Uncircumcised penis owners, did you ever wish you were circumcised?

    Jump

  • The explanation lies in the quote of what you said, together with your reaction that the exact same procedure on a little girl is much worse than on a little boy. That reaction comes from your culture.

  • if I lived in the US, I’d probably do it for the reasons you mentioned - it’s the cultural norm there
