Wow, I read that in the completely wrong way for a sec and wondered, why you had 38 upvotes for promoting the banning of open source contributions from certain countries.

Btw. how do we get them to do that banning for the whole of EU? Asking for a friend.

Lemmy also allows you to edit your post afterwards, so you could still do it.

And then there is a colleague who programs in Notepad++ directly on the test server and then just copies his code to prod.

(yes, he works alone on that project)

LibreOffice can be configuresd to open online files with your local editor.

Edit: Also there seems to be a real web version.

As someone who does exactly that right now. Yes.

You need a Linux machine in a separate network with separate firewall rules and the developer has to devote a bit of their time to managing that machine.
It can even be centrally managed, if you have the capacity.

But why would you want that? To secure your shit while allowing the devs to to what they like to their equipment.

So you say “programs like Trilium”. Have you looked at Joplin?

Joplin comes with OCR albeit for search only. I myself have not tried it yet, but Joplin itself is a great note app.

Also Joplin seems to have an in development plugin for extracting text via OCR.

Maybe you can then export it to Trilium, if this a one time thing.

You can bet your pants it does!

I learned today, that in JavaScript

I habe another “magically solved itself” story with solution.

When I leave my PC on for a long time without needing to access it, e.g. to make a backup or some long updates, I always lock it. This ensures that the monitor turns itself off.

Or so I thought. Mostly I would only look at it, when accessing it again, since it faces away from the door. Then the screen was off.

But sometimes when I didn’t want to use it, the screen was on. This really bothered me for a long time. When I wanted to use it, the screen was off and when I didn’t, the screen was on.

Some day it just stopped happening. The screen was always off.

Just last week I found out why this all happened.
It was my phone. I have my mouse on the left side and always place my phone to the right. Except when not sitting at the desk. Then I put the phone on the left side which faces away from the wall. There it slightly shook the mouse thus activating the screen and gaslighting me. Last month I thoroughly cleaned my desk and now I don’t have to place the phone on my mousepad anymore.

That WordPress article is a one-sided mess and they should really pull back from what they did. That has nothing to do with open source. They fucked over many of their users just to spite a single firm (which were in their right).

Now I don’t want to defend a for profit company that doesn’t contribute much to open source, but the public meltdown that the CEO of Automattic had was more than embarrassing.

We host a small Matrix-server. The server is for 4 people but barely uses the 2 cores 4GB RAM.

Storage is mostly media, but stayed under 100GB in about 3 years.

We also host a web frontend and use Schildichat as app, but Element X could be better nowadays. Both also have a desktop client.

A big plus are all the bridges. My girlfriend uses WhatsApp, no problemo, there is a bridge for that. That one club only has a signal group? Use the bridge.
One of us uses Fb-Messenger via a bridge. Telegram also works and there are lots more.

The server is also low maintenance. It’s an ansible playbook, that I irregularly run.
It takes around an hour twice a year due to changes in the playbook.

Also matrix is feature rich beyond your requests. I don’t know much about the others, but matrix had emoji-reactions before WhatsApp and has threads inside of chatrooms and spaces which are collections of chats for common topics.
Also polls, sharing current/live location (not bridged to WA), voice messages and stickers.

This looks very good. I have never thought about a TUI/CLI for my *arrs, but I will give it a try.

If this works out for me, do you also seek contributions?

In 2018, 3.4 percent were estimated as likely AI-generated.

For 2024, with a sampling of 473 articles published this year, it suspected that just over 40 percent were likely AI-generated.

My numbers were from the Originality AI part.

That is why I liked the comparison with articles from 2018. Then you have comparable texts in the same format and can more easily figure out differences in your analysis.
If true, a jump from 3% to 40% is significant to say the least.

As a rust fan I can say:

Don’t be sorry, cause the code is in C!
Be sorry for what you did in C!

Then the joke is very much on us.

You code in Java, of course you should self flagellate on a daily basis just for that. The entire ecosystem is completely fucked.

Rust mentioned!

VSCodium is the open source part of VSCode, so I prefer to use that.

Mull is firefox on android without the proprietary parts. Heliboard is a good android keyboard.

Yeah, it’s not too helpful, but maybe they have no more data. If you want to know more, go to https://haveibeenpwned.com/ and enter you e-mail. They maybe know, where your data came from.

Otherwise: Do you have a different and random password for each site? If yes, change your gmail password (in as it was gmail itself) and then watch the news, if a site you use was hacked. If you don’t have different password for each site… Well then you are gonna have a fun day changing all you passwords to new ones. And use a password manager and a new random password for each site this time, please.
