meanwhile random residential internet speeds in tokyo beating out every consumer connection available in my area (and country I assume): librespeed result for tokyo shows 147Mbps down, 153Mbps up

i am currently testing https://iamb.chat/ it's a bit unique in how it does things but promising of you're into TUI and vim

maybe my comment about gitlab didn't come across right. i do find oxide's model to be better and agree with their criticism of gitlab's.

and as much as you are absolutely right about labour being treated much like any other commodity required for a company to extract value, that is precisely the issue being pointed at here, isn't it?

we should differentiate and acknowledge that people are more complex than that. their experiment seems to create an atmosphere where work is being done despite compensation not being used as an incentive and instead to enable the worker to do the work.

i personally don't think this should be a responsibility of a company at all, but rather society (or the state) should assure these conditions... but we are stuck with capitalism and this is a step towards something better :)

i have a gentoo system with a custom s6-rc service tree that fully replaces openrc and boots via s6-linux-init.

instead of a display manager i have tinydm (from postmarketos) and autologin setup. since i use full-disk encryption and suspend-to-disk i find that i don't need the extra login step into my user session.

i have a bunch of bemenu-based helpers for wifi, bluetooth, vpn, audio, passwords, mounting drives, etc.

i don't have polkit or sudo installed. i use doas.

i joined mastodon in 2017. at the time i was also cutting off whatsapp and facebook and was just generally getting deeper into foss and fedi.

at the same time i was a heavy reddit user and was looking for fedi-based alternatives. i was following prismo development for a while, but that never took off.

i eventually joined lemmy in 2020 but never really found the community, that reddit had (and tbf still has for most topics).

last year during the API fiasco i finally made this account and have been pretty happily reading (and sometimes posting) here.

there was a post on !asklemmy@lemmy.ml not long ago, if you're looking for more suggestions: https://lemmy.ml/post/2006550

i use miniflux (you need to host this yourself, no idea how nice it would be to use locally) and then miniflutt on android

hemingway's debut the sun also rises, i went in blind and didn't expect it to be about bull fighting. i enjoyed the vibe of the 1920s travel through spain and france, the aimless plot and the character interactions.

i learned that bullfighting is terrible and cringed at the casual anti-semitism all over the book

mpv has an integration with ytdl (and forks), which should let you just open the url and stream it directly

what's the app? looks like it could be discord? running in flatpak? do you find the emoji font with fc-list | grep emoji? do other apps show emoji?

managed to shift my idle browsing here. though i was kind of weening off reddit slowly over the past years. with lemmy exploding it has brought back some of that feeling of exploring and looking for communities i was missing on reddit haha

sadly nebula.tv sends you to reddit for comments on their exclusives, that is one holdover that is also unlikely to go away...

+1 for RSS but it doesn't really replace the comments. granted on reddit the quality of discussion has for sure declined and lemmy is still a little dead sometimes. but it still provides value (to me)

someone should build a distributed comment system that works with plain old RSS feeds

since you seem to consider alacritty, which is pretty minimal in features, maybe give foot a shot as well. i find it fits best into tiling wm land (sway, river, etc.) so might not be your cup of tea...

couldn't agree with you more. it can't be that hard to give us an opt-out of podcasts altogether. there's been an item for that on their feature request forum for as long as podcasts in spotify are a thing

they just don't want to

unless we're talking about my main machine, which runs gentoo, i'll always default to alpine. super solid base system and packages. super accessible when it comes to upstreaming packages. I only wish they had s6 as an option for init/service manager

i have been running qmk keyboards with capslock bound to esc on tap, alt when pressed as well + evdoublebind to achieve the same for the laptop's builtin keyboard

i do like the idea of not having to come off the home row for ctrl-* mappings in vim

systemd is great, but being disingenious isn't helping anyone:

chrony -> sd-timesyncd [...] one less daemon

just because it ships with systemd doesn't mean it magically runs without it's own process

nice. i didn't know about the lemmy equivalents of mtv!

do you know why i can't subscribe to the community on lemmy.world?

except XML xD

you can configure mako to not show notifications and it will keep a history of them as well. not to discredit your project but makes me wonder if something like this can be built with some bash scripting :)

if i wasn't a terminal person, this looks ideal! no reinventing the wheel for lock-in's (read business model) sake...

the only thing i don't like here is their custom bru format. json, yaml or any other standardised markup fit their manifesto better as well imo

huh, was it not before? i thought the entire lx* space was canonical's thing

sway + bemenu for building my own utilities

btw what distro are my fellow sway users on? i'm loving the control i get over what i install with gentoo

how is everyone interacting with audio, networking, bluetooth?

😮

the starlabs machine looks awesome! is it only me or does the chassis look like the framework, specifically the bottom part?

agree about media.gov, acess to the created media should ideally happen in a distributed way (funkwhale?) with a government provided service as a free tax-funded default.

i don't agree that centralising payout like that is an issue that limits creative output. most free democracies already do similar stuff to what is proposed here, although usually bound to specific programs and grants.

3x netzpolitik aber kein logbuch!? :D

greyed out subscribe button

in theory shouldn't it be possible to use bubblewrap and the xdg-desktop-portal project to hack together only the sandboxing bits of flatpak while leaving out ostree/distribution

you might run into this though: https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/issues/737

so I wonder what the benefit is keeping it in the proprietary format at all

yeah my guess was easier editing and ux when collaborating via github, diffs on json don't look great

but yaml (for all it's faults) would still be better haha or now that i think about it:

both look similar to bru, would share the advantages over json and seem better spec'd/supported

GEMA is not really the same as this though... and regardless germany just tacked this onto an existing unchanged IP law. the video proposed to drop any notion of IP in regards to media, making copyright lawsuits obsolete

the ssh client breaks the format

could you elaborate what you were doing here? like vim on the server via ssh tunnel?

he does mention that as a weak attempt and more as an example of what not to do.

i think his premise assumes IP law doesn't exist and economies based on it would fade away. what czechia has is additional to the existing system and thus moot

I always use https://luciole-vision.com/luciole-en.html to typeset documents like letters and such. I find it pleasant looking and it is supposedly easy to read for people with dyslexia.

2nd ww navy vessels (inspired by kancolle)

personal machines - destroyers
servers - battleships

so you chord z + right hand keys and : + left hand keys?

i think i could get away with just having ctrl under a/: and maybe shift or super under s/l since i have alt under caps lock

flexget, more ghetto than sonarr but works just fine

not sure for i3, i think foot is wayland-only. but i have the same setup with sway and am very happy
