Gotta have something to do when we’re unable to retire. 😉

As will I, but those look like legit release notes and not a joke. Nothing jumps out as too good to be true or just bizarre.

Fr, though, duck typing in Python is one of my biggest annoyances.

I always liked KeeWeb as an alternative front end for KeePass.

Not a Sonos.

While I like the sound of my Sonos One, their app fucking sucks, and you have to use it to do anything (and I am supremely patient with technology). I am so close to just trashing it and the only thing stopping me is that I don’t yet have a replacement for it.

It was a time of desolation, chaos, and uncertainty. Brother pitted against brother. Babies having babies.

Then one day, from the right side of the screen, came a man. A man with a plastic rectangle.

I never said it was going to be any good!

Yeah! I have two typewriters!

Seems like a fitting end to the internet, imo. Or the recipe for the Singularity.

Why have a team that constantly tests your Opsec when you plan to just let the KGB in through the front door?

I’m actually waiting with baited breath for the release, because Universal Blue is already cooking a Cosmic version in the meantime. It will be awesome to rebase to that when it’s ready.

It hasn’t been mentioned publicly, because of the fact that it’s still Alphaware, but you can find it in their GitHub repos.

Do give it a try in a VM or whatever. It’s certainly unique.

It is Arch. Just Arch with extra tools preinstalled.

This is really helpful. I’ve been wanting to get started, like OP, but knowing how to do it feels overwhelming.

Thanks!

TBH, this sounds like something to ask a lawyer. Since you’re in France, there may or may not be statutes that protect witnesses or people trying to cooperate with law enforcement, and a lawyer who’s familiar with your laws would be able to give you correct advice.

And in the event they give you bad advice, there may also be protections regarding “following the advice of counsel.” In the US, following in good faith some bad advice from lawyers can result in protections or immunity from certain charges.

So do yourself a favor and get some proper legal advice.

I thought it constituted a full engine, curious on your take.

Two reasons:

• It is often a last consideration for web devs. If I had a dollar for every time WebKit broke just at my work…
• I don’t like Apple, so since it’s my dumb comparison, they get demerits for being a stupid walled garden that’s hard to leave.

It’s mostly that last one for me. It’s indeed a valid engine, but my understanding is that it’s not particularly great to work with. Either way, you can just take my comment as a thinly veiled dig at Apple.

From what I understand, usage stats are anonymized, and you can opt out of telemetry. But as I personally move to more hardened and private ways to connect, I’m moving to LibreWolf to err on the side of caution.

It all feels like flying too close to the sun for my taste. I don’t like the idea of normalizing policies that aren’t cut and dry and easy to understand. Have a legal version and a version for dumb people like me if needed, but don’t expect me to play lawyer and connect the dots.

To be clear, I’m not particularly interested in defending Mozilla. This confusing mess is at least partly their fault, and I think users are right to hold them accountable. I just want people to be able to make informed decisions and not ones based on the internet blowing things up needlessly.

Rather than repeat myself, here’s my comment to someone who asked basically the same thing.

To quote this wiki that did a very good job of breaking down this clusterfuck:

The CCPA defines “selling data” as:

“Sell,” “selling,” “sale,” or “sold,” means selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s personal information by the business to a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.

The sticking point is that last “other valuable consideration.” The question that people should be asking is: “valuable to whom and in what capacity?” Value does not need to be for financial gain; knowledge is valuable to a contractor building a building, for example.

But I recommend reading that wiki breakdown or just watch this video. It’s a mess that can’t be untangled in a simple Lemmy comment.

That’s kinda my feeling, too. It doesn’t appear to be any worse than a year ago, but if you were already not impressed, this is not an improvement.
