  • "Cancel ChatGPT" movement goes mainstream after OpenAI closes deal with U.S. Department of War — as Anthropic refuses to surveil American citizens

    Jump

  • It's always like this. We get a ton of articles on how everyone is suddenly boycotting/deleting [insert thing] but when you ask someone in real life, they usually have no idea what you're talking about.

  • New York sues Valve for enabling "illegal gambling" with loot boxes

    Jump

  • So they should be left alone with their online gambling business because they've been doing it for a long time and also there are other companies doing it too? Valve glazing is really out of control.

  • Reddit decides to remove r/all

    Jump

  • I don't really get the hate for that decision. For years, r/all was just straight up bots upvoting posts. You had posts with 50k+ upvotes and about a hundred comments in total. And the karma farmers made sure you saw the same post 2 or 3 times on the front page, just from different subreddits.

  • Evil Ultra trying to split the vote 😠

    Jump

  • Being able to say "I'm not going to vote if there is no progressive candidate, I don't care if republicans win again" must be nice when you're not the one being actively hunted down by ICE. But hey, at least you'll have a good view at immigrants being detained and sent to another alligator alcatraz from your high horse.

  • LibreOffice Leave X/Twitter in favor of Mastodon

    Jump

  • It's even worse to see open sources projects use Discord for communication.

  • RAM now represents 35 percent of bill of materials for HP PCs

    Jump

  • Hopefully, as a side effect of the current situation, software developers will be a bit more mindful of ram consumption. The "just buy more RAM bro" argument isn't really working nowadays. 

  • I have 100 euros a month to donate to open source projects. Do you think its better to donate more to fewer projects or less to more projects?

    Jump

  • If I had that much money to spare, I'd split it in smaller parts and donate to smaller projects that I use. I feel like Mozilla, Signal or KDE are doing pretty well at the moment, but what about some random developer that works on, for example, an open source app that you've been using for years? Some of them just get a few bucks once in a blue moon and that's it. I believe they should be appreciated more.

  • Using Brave browser? Stop now.

    Jump

  • To be fair, it has the same rating as Firefox. Though because of the URL hijacking scandal alone, Brave should NOT be trusted. 

  • Xbox Co-founder Says Microsoft is Quietly Sunsetting the Platform

    Jump

  • I'm so happy that in the recent years Linux made leaps and bounds in terms of usability so now we have an alternative that actually works well, especially since Microsoft just stopped caring about desktop Windows users.

  • Lutris 0.5.21 Adds Steam Sniper Runtime and New Console Emulators

    Jump

  • Valve is using Team Fortress 2 character names as codenames for their runtime library.

  • What are the most European Linux distributions?

    Jump

  • We've already seen Fedora bend their knee to the US laws. I'm the past, a developer for kicked out of the project and banned from contributing because the country he was born in was on the US no-no list. 

  • What are your latest "buy European" wins?

    Jump

  • I switched my carrier from T-Mobile to Orange.

  • Car Wash Test on 53 leading AI models: "I want to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away. Should I walk or drive?"

    Jump

  • It fails for me (paid version).

  • can't have one without the other

    Jump

  • "I'm getting low on my Twitter engagement money"

  • How it feels to scroll Lemmy as an Eastern European

    Jump

  • Damn, if only things like using a site without an account or jumping to a different instance existed.

  • How it feels to scroll Lemmy as an Eastern European

    Jump

  • Is being a tankie a requirement to create an open source project? Didn't know that. I guess Linus Torvalds is a communist?

  • The bloat is coming from inside the house!

    Jump

  • I got to the point in my life where I just enjoy a basic Debian XFCE with no customization (except for removing the bottom bar and adding some shortcut keys). With so much going on in real life, I learned of enjoy the never-changing stability on my PC.

  • European Laptop Brands Running on Linux

    Jump

  • Red Hat/IBM owns the trademark, logo, pretty much the entire architecture, a majority of FESCo members are Red Hat employees, Fedora has to follow US laws due to the Red Hat link (mostly export, patents and cryptography laws).
