  • Which distro does Linus Torvalds use?

    Jump

  • If I recall correctly I think he uses Fedora on a Macbook Pro.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Liberux Nexx GNU/Linux smartphone starts crowdfunding!

    Jump

  • The current supply chain ecosystem (including Trump's tariffs) that's probably driving up the cost makes me sad as I really want to see more Linux phone choices like this come to market as it drives the prices of other similar devices down. :(

    I really want to buy a Linux native phone that's comparable or at least close to Samsung's S8 or Google's Pixel 3.

    In maybe 2 years if there's still nothing decent available I'm probably gonna buy a used phone on Ebay or wherever and just flash pmOS or GrapheneOS. I'd rather spend my time than money at this point.

  • This being $2039 CAD I can't find any way to justify the price. Even as the Linux enthusiast in my circles this is too much.

    For 2k I'd honestly rather buy a Framework 16.

    Either way best of luck to the campaign👍

  • 30M After divorce I got literally zero support from anyone, why?

    Jump

  • I'm sorry that you're in this position and I can unfortunately understand on a deep level on just how distressing it can feel to be alone.

    This situation that you're describing is really painfully close to what I personally experienced with one of my own breakups.

    Men are often viewed as the ones who should predominantly pull themselves up by their bootstraps and as such shouldn't be given empathy or the right to be listened to.

    • an an Enby I've both seen and experienced this firsthand.

    It really sucks that these kinds of disconnection happens when reality really doesn't have to be this way.

    I unfortunately can't say anything that could possibly fix this landscape but please know that you are not alone. 💪

    💖🙌 Your pain and emotional distress is real, you deserve love just as everyone else. 🔥💖

    If possible, I'd highly reaching out to your local social empathy/mental help centres as I've personally found help there and they might be able to help you as well🍀🌻

  • Windows Recall is one of their AI solutions they're pushing onto people which would screenshot everything on your system in order to assist users in searching through previous desktop interactions and whatnot.

    Security researchers are highly against the rollout of this 'feature' as it uses AI and the previous betas have shown that Microsoft is incapable of ensuring the prevention of abuse from malicious users.

    Ex: a user entering in their credit card information for an online transaction would have that information stored as an indexable/searchable piece of information by a malicious outsider.

    Microsoft has yet to show competance in their abilities to prevent the creation of such a wide attack surface.

  • Good News! Redis is Open Source Again 🕺

    Jump

  • I don't use Redis or any alternative to be honest.

    If I were pressed to choose; I'd honestly consider choosing Redis as the new AGPL-3.0 license is actually impossible to revert if development continues.

  • Good News! Redis is Open Source Again 🕺

    Jump

  • As someone that's a major fan of the AGPL-3.0 license, even I have a hard time believing that this would bring people back to Redis.

    It's an upward battle from here on because they were the ones who chose to demolish their customer's trust.

  • Relying on Redhat's Fedora is quite a blunder if they go forward with that choice.

    Redhat's already shown us plenty why we shouldn't trust them especially while they're currently still owned and controlled by IBM.

  • Pinta 3.0 Open-Source Paint Program Released with GTK4 Port, New Effects

    Jump

  • Holding the use of a less restrictive license against the project because some unrelated party could come along and fork it without contributing back seems like a strange position to me.

    While I'm not sure how to interpret this, I can answer the second which might help answer your first statement.

    I'm also not really sure what that criticism of MIT is trying to say. Third party contributors don't get paid for their work? GPL projects also don't have to pay people submitting changes.

    It's not about payment but primarily about reciprocation:

    [Case 1] I have a project licensed under MIT

    P1: "Hey thanks for the contributions I'll add your name to the MIT license."P2: "Dope, btw I see your company uses it for xyz can I see what the new project looks like?"P1: "Fuck no"P2: "You're joking right"P1: "MIT license, read it and weap"End scene.

    [Case 2] I have a project licensed under GPL-v(2,3 or AGPL-3.0)

    P1: "Hey thanks for the contributions! Here's the new changes."P2: "No worries and thanks! I hope the project improves even more.🫡"End scene.

  • licensed under MIT

    yeahh I'll stick with Krita as it's licensed under GPLv3

    The MIT license helps capitalist overlords and leaves developers and users with nothing as the only thing that the MIT license requires is for the user/dev to essentially pay with exposure by sharing the MIT license that contains a list of contributors :/

    The GPL license provides systemic trust as it requires users/devs to contribute any improvements to the project back to the developers under the same license hence ensuring the cycle of trust and furthering progress
