  • Microsoft suddenly bans LibreOffice developer's email account, blocks appeal

    Jump

  • Eh, that's the problem with email - it's much harder to change and migrate, because you can't guarantee others will use your new email, much less find out who somehow still has the old email to send messages to and expects a reply from.

  • Duckstation(one of the most popular PS1 Emulators) dev plans on eventually dropping Linux support due to Linux users, especially Arch Linux users.

    Jump

  • If someone on a dist wants to maintain a package then let them take the heat if it is broken.

    That's quite literally what happened and why this guy is moaning though. Nobody asked him for an Arch build, people distribute it themselves on the AUR and he's annoyed anyway.

  • In his defense, a LOT of emulator maintainers have this sentiment about RetroArch, so I can’t fault him too much for that one in particular.

    Then release your emulator as a paid app for iOS with a closed source and go nuts. Otherwise it's like going out naked during a rainy day and shouting you're getting wet.

  • The developer also had a massive drama with RetroArch because, wait for it... "RetroArch users complain too much!" so that's actually a common sentiment coming from them and it's absolutely not restricted to Linux. He hates Linux users, Android users, RetroArch users... at this point I wonder why even publish this as a public user facing project at all, he clearly hates users.

  • If you don't want to see your software packaged in ways outside of your control, is it smart to publish it with a license that allows it to be packaged in ways outside of your control?

  • What is the best Power Outlet, and why?

    Jump

  • N is polarized - but it assumes the device will retain the grounding middle pin, which forces a specific orientation. If the device uses two pins, or the user cuts out the middle pin, there's no physical size difference to prevent inverting the polarity.

  • Brazilian Type N looks like it's not a big deal, but the shape and depth are actually extremely good - you get a fantastic connection that never wobbles but also comes out when you need it without having weird pins or moving locks that always end up failing in some other designs. It's also compact and stacks nicely.

  • Another Google Pixel 6a catches fire after battery-nerfing update

    Jump

  • I went to the nearest Google stor

    A "Google Store" doesn't even exist in my country lol

  • Considering it is a Google phone their long term support is still crap compared to things like Fairphone or even iPhone.

    At least it beats Samsung, I'm not buying any product from them ever again

  • Microsoft bans LibreOffice developer's account without warning, rejects appeal

  • Local SyncThing folder sharing ftw

  • Google deleted a guys entire account for having pictures of his own son in the pool. Google also deleted a colleague's master thesis because he allegedly had a pirated book in his Google Drive - he owned the book, we have local stores that sell .epubs.

    Now Microsoft deleted a LibreOffice's developer account.

    Do you know what all of these examples have in common? Appealing doesn't work, "your" files were never yours if you give up control to a corporation, US big tech can't be trusted.

    You don't have to go fully libre software (though maybe you should!) but at the very least use software that isn't taking your content hostage: have local copies, only accept local copies that are automated and using open formats.

  • Samsung’s One UI 8 might shut down bootloader unlocking on Galaxy phones

    Jump

  • That would be illegal here, so I'm assuming this will depend on regional differences.

  • DEMS PULL UPSET ON EPSTEIN FILES: Democrats dropped an 11th-hour motion at an unrelated hearing after noticing that most GOP members on the panel had publicly demanded the files be released.

    Jump

  • I suspect a lot of the GOP also want rid of Trump

    I suspect they don't actually care at all except the companies lobbying these particular representatives are being hurt by the tariffs.

  • In a fight between Elon Musk and traditional telecoms, I'm cheering for the fight

  • You can have whatever token you want with all the metadata, licensing and ownership information you want...

    ...unless you plan on only seeing images in your own platform, nobody gives a shit, people will take screenshots and image files and share and use them however they want. There's no world in which you load a full DRM plugin or do 4 different types of handshake with a full blockchain just to load a jpeg into a comment.

  • Mathematics are so beautiful, intuitive, logical, you look at geometry and something feels right as if the Universe itself is an harmonious flow of beauty...

    ...and then they invented infinities and topology and stacking squares and whatever cursed abomination allows you to recreate a second sphere by taking pieces of one sphere and rotating it and cakes you can fill with finite filling but not frost and this gif

  • Masters in bioinformatics, but I'd be proud to be on art or history, your comments only reflects the limitations of your own weak mind. It's super weird, and telling, that you decided to single out history and art.
