  • Who could foresee that that when a movement doesn't ban Nazis, Nazis take it over?

  • I understand that running services costs money, and I've heard nothing but good things about Kagi. Can anyone here convince me it's worth the price?

  • Oh man, I suspected that was artificial! 😡

  • I'm wondering if you have the "cookie notices" and "annoyances" filters disabled? They are not checked by default. It's under settings > filter lists. FWIW the page loaded cleanly for me.

  • Framework, but their laptops are also about twice as expensive as equivalent models from other brands.

    Eh, I just ran some comparisons and Framework is only about $100 more than the cheapest equivalent in another brand with the same CPU/Memory. $200 more with Windows.

  • From their website:

    Computers, notebooks, PCs and laptops from TUXEDO Computers are not mass-produced or off-the-shelf. Each device is individually assembled, installed, configured and tested for you.

  • Kapowarr is for comic books, OP is looking for comic strips.

    That said it should be great for finding collected editions.

  • Looks great, can old Google location data be imported?

  • I've been impressed with F-Droid's press releases. If they have a snowball's chance in hell of stopping this, they are certainly giving it a clear and concise effort.

  • At the risk of sounding like a conservative, most people do find meaning in doing work and would not be content to lay around eating and watching TikTok forever. Just because someone does not find meaning in laboring to make their bosses wealthy does not mean they don't find meaning in the work itself.

    For example I think a lot of "low level" jobs would be quite enjoyable and rewarding if we weren't forced to do them in order to survive. I'm thinking things like carpentry, running a small grocery store or even waiting tables.

    So to answer your question, yes, the Earth can provide far more than every person needs to live a fulfilling life because all we need is food, shelter, community and freedom to find how we can best contribute. Those things are not expensive or resource intensive. But they are kept from us and replaced with plastic things we don't need in order to further enrich a small few.

  • Lol, well if we agree on something then you know it's serious. This guy doesn't seem to understand that his issue with "Lemmy" is a fundamental one.

  • The purpose, 👏THE.👏PURPOSE.👏of the ActivityPub protocol is to give ultimate moderation power to instance owners (as opposed to a singular, usually corporate, owner).

    That is (and I can't stress this enough) the entire point.

  • ActivityPub is designed to create platforms that enable customized moderation experiences in order to resist corporate/commercial influence.

    ActivityPub also resists government censorship, because a thousand copies get made for every post, one for every federated instance.

    If you're looking for a platform where your personal speech can be forced upon others then ActivityPub is quite literally the opposite of what you're looking for.

  • Oh my goodness automatic theme transitions finally!

  • Oh interesting I read "atomic" and assumed it meant small. As in small updates to an immutable system.

  • It's actually slightly less risk especially for someone's PC you won't be around 100% of the time to help fix. Immutable just means the system files can't be edited.

    The "atomic" part means it gets frequent (daily, if desired) updates but you can change in the settings to only check monthly so it doesn't feel crazy.

  • I support this and would suggest Fedora Kinoite which is Fedora's immutable version with KDE Plasma and is very very hard to meaningfully break.

  • Right, and I'm saying Zorin is perfect for them. Zorin exists in a weird space where it's great for the type of person who would never really consider installing Linux in the first place.

  • No it's a great recommendation.
