  • Rant: I wish more people stopped using Github

    Jump

  • In what way has Microsoft enshittified GitHub? Since the acquisition they’ve mostly made more services free for open source users, and prices and features haven’t gotten more restrictive.

  • Or even non-democratic countries. Brutal dictatorships usually get a larger international response, even from other dictatorships.

  • Ah yes of course, everyone else is dense. My bad I didn’t realize I was speaking with a higher being.

  • Popeye and Tintin are now in the public domain

  • Trademarks are probably easier to filter out matches than copyrighted works, due to the relatively few number of them and restrictiveness of trademark protections.

  • Several reportedly killed in alleged Israeli strike near Damascus

  • Israel is trying its best to make sure the new Syrian government continues war with them even after they’ve expressed no interest in doing so.

  • You obviously care very strongly about this, but you should actually look up what the EU’s recent actions are before writing a short novel on Lemmy. In 2024 the EU implemented new rules that allow defendants of potential SLAPP suits to request early dismissal, requiring the plaintiff to prove plausibility of their claims prior to court proceedings, financial, legal, and emotional aid to defendants, requiring of the plaintiff to pay for the proceedings, and rules restricting plaintiffs from selecting jurisdictions more sympathetic to their cause, including those outside the EU. Obviously no solution is perfect, but at the same time the EU is taking reasonable measures to prevent the outcomes you are baselessly fear mongering about. Stop assuming the rest of the world’s governments are as evil and useless as in the US before making unfounded accusations, and actually look up the facts before you make yourself look foolish.

  • SLAPPs are a problem in the EU, but not to the same degree as in the US. Unlike the US, there are bloc-wide rules protecting against them that saw the number of cases decrease this year. You’d have a stronger argument if you based this on the EU instead of just assuming that it’s a carbon copy of the US.

  • Apple pulls remaining Lightning-based devices from European stores

    Jump

  • The cables Apple includes now are very flexible braided cables and they are excellent for their purpose. Haven’t had one fail yet, or even show major signs on use. Would like to find any other company making a comparable product, but all the “ultra flexible” cables I’ve found seem to not be as flexible.

  • Air Canada Express flight evacuated after landing incident in Halifax

  • Shitty that they would withhold passengers belongings unless it was damaged or would otherwise be necessary for the investigation

  • And it would be tossed out for lack of standing before any arguments are heard or considered.

  • If that was actually how the legal system works (which it’s not, you need standing), then this law wouldn’t matter anyways because you could “sue” for any reason just to waste everyone’s time and money.

  • You should verify this, but I think there is like a consortium of sorts made up of tech companies that pick a standard that they all must follow. So in the future, it’s possible for them to pick a new standard, and then after a transition period everything would be required to switch (though of course you could still continue using old devices, they just can no longer be sold new).

  • Can you use 0x1E-0x1F ASCII codes?

    Jump

  • Depends on if you want your data format to be strict ascii. If you don’t care, then sure, why not?

  • Why was Web 2.0 a mistake and what does that have to do with centralization?

  • Valve's plan to bring SteamOS to more devices is a promising sign if you want to stop gaming on Windows

  • The marginal extra disk spaces used by flatpak really isn’t a concern for most users, much less valve. If you do everything in flatpak and your apps only use current runtime versions, the additional space used by flatpak is in the megabytes, since libraries like libc are going to be on your host no matter what.
