  • And people who adopt cats shouldnt be adding to the problem. Outdoor cats have a much lower life expectancy than an indoor one, if you let your cat outdoors youre actively putting them in more danger and you shouldnt have them.

  • As long as you spend time providing your cat proper enrichment to express their hunting instincts, an indoor cat will be just as happy as an outdoor cat.

  • There is no situation where it is impossible to avoid. I'm glad your cat has had a good life, but in general, outdoor cats are still far more likely to die young to diseases, accidents, and wildlife.

  • Yeah, house cats killing birds in regions they aren't native to. Your comment still has notthing to do with that.

  • None of the shelters or adoption agencies near me will even let you get a cat if you don't say it will be kept indoors on the papers. Cats can easily be given the same level of enrichment indoors by playing with them.

    Keeping your cat indoors is only cruel when you don't care enough about them to play and provide enrichment to make them happy, in which case you shouldn't have a cat.

  • Devs sound alarm after Microsoft subtracts C/C++ extension from VS Code forks

    Jump

  • I havent used vscode in while but I do remember having a lot of issues with the Microsoft C++ plugin, especially in large projects. I switched to clangd very quickly.

  • Plus you can always just use clangd. Its what I've always used with every text editor that has LSP support.

  • Neat, I haven't tried the Jitsi integration so I wasn't aware it had persistent rooms. That's the main thing I need to exist, I'll have to give it a try. Although, I do still greatly prefer the format of servers and channels, rather than spaces and rooms.

  • Channels that function similar to discords? You can start a voice call in a room or create voice calls, but those function pretty differently from Discord voice channels.

  • I love Matrix but it really isnt a good discord replacement. It's much closer to Telegram or Lemmy. It doesnt even have voice channels, the main reason everyone I know uses Discord. I hope we do get a proper decentralized discord alternative at some point.

  • GitHub - outerbase/studio: A lightweight Database GUI in your browser. It supports connecting to Postgres, MySQL, and SQLite.

  • there is no server component running

    What the hell are you talking about? Just look at the Dockerfile.

    CMD ["node", "server.js"]

    You think that line isn't running a server?

    Thr repo makes it very obvious that it runs a server that the webgui connects to. Its fine if you dont know shit but dont be a dick while being stupid.

  • Yep, didnt make a single sensible point. Just anecdotes and irrelevant examples. I'm bad at ignoring an argument so I went and blocked lol

  • Buy Once Software

  • That's not what a false equivalency is, but ok.

    FOSS has this reputation among most people.

    Most people don't have any clue what FOSS is. They just want software, and if its free and works, they'll like it.

    I am genuinely curious why you think people pay money for worse software though...

    I provided two reasons in my post. Superior marketing and professional support.

    That was my entire point. The person I was originally replying to seemed to suggest exactly that.

    Ok, but thats not what you went on to say.

    You are not arguing in good faith, I don't care to continue going in circles.

  • Buy Once Software

    Jump

  • How is that false equivalency? Comparing fdroid to the play store is about as close as you can get.

    Like I said, there is bad FOSS software, but that doesnt make it generally false. People pay for software that doesnt have a good free alternative, they pay for support, and often they will pay to use software that has good marketing because they are simply unaware of the alternatives.

    I'm not saying all FOSS software is great, but lots of software does have great FOSS options, for example, Firefox, Blender, and Bevy. Obviously there are also examples of proprietary software without a great alternative, like Photoshop. I like FOSS, but I don't avoid proprietary solutions that do a better job. Believe it or not, I still end up using mostly FOSS software.

    You're not backing your points up with any actual reasoning or examples while also being condescending about it.

  • Buy Once Software

  • You can also go on the play store and find a huge list of proprietary apps that haven't been updated.

    You need some actual stats to back up this point. Plenty of proprietary software is unsuccessful because it fails to profit, so its shut down. At least FOSS software will continue as long as someone finds it useful enough to keep it going. Plus the obvious, that if you like a piece of software you can maintain it yourself.

    Also saying that FOSS software is "notoriously low quality" is silly. There's tons of great and important FOSS software and plenty of shit FOSS software, just like proprietary software. Your comments just ignore how much proprietary shovelware exists.

  • I'm not saying Librewolf is insecure, I'm just saying its a bit less secure. They generally do a good job keeping up to date, but there can be delays if an update conflicts with their changes.

    Librewolf is not just a Firefox config. You can look at the repo and see a number of patches. Without a paid security team to review these patches with every update, it is less secure.

    I'm not saying not to use Librewolf, the likelihood of a zero day specifically targeting it and effecting a significant number of users is very unlikely, simply based off of the size of its userbase compared to more mainstream browsers.
