WinAmp making their source code 'source available' instead of open source, and then dropping this phrase:

The release of the Winamp player's source code will enable developers from all over the world to actively participate in its evolution and improvement.

Yeah I don't think so

It's getting wild out here.

Mastodon’s CTO, Renaud Chaput, offered this clarifying comment on Hacker News:

Our operating structure is still the Germany-based Mastodon gGmbH. The new US non-profit is here to facilitate fundraising in the US and promote Mastodon there (plus maybe one day pay developers directly, if we hire in the US).

They'll probably send you the paypal friends link, which you can't use for business purposes lol

I still don't understand what its supposed to mean

I'd recommend using GrapheneOS. (i'm using it, and it is a breath of fresh air)

Kagi:

First result is the official documentation with the page that contains information about the in operator

This was the result: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/functions.html

BUT it is the documentation for 9.0

Though if I would use postgresql documentation very often I could just use the Kagi feature that rewrites URLs with a regex, so I can replace it always with the latest version.

Kagi Documentation for that feature:

https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html#redirects-url-rewrites

Some use cases of redirects include:

  • Change domains to a preferred domain (reddit.com to old.reddit.com)
  • Fixing links to outdated documentation with bad SEO
  • Rewriting proxied pages (like Google AMP) to their source URL
  • Changing any http link to https

Kagi has search personalization where you can lower/raise/pin specific domains (one of kagis main selling points) and I blocked geeks for geeks and w3schools, as these are irrelevant for me and I don't want them in my results

The article is about frozen vendor kernels, not about.LTS

Nestle does not deserve the accent aigu (é)

That distinct office smell. I can't describe it, but so many offices smell very similar

Yeah that's the whole point of LTS, so it stays compatible with that kernel version but still gets important updates, but no feature updates

What phone I have? Pixel 8 Pro (I bought it specifically for GrapheneOS, otherwise I wouldn't have bought a Pixel, als the original Pixel ROM is laggy as fuck)

Supported Devices are all Pixels since the Pixel 5a. https://grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices

For me the uBlock Origin cookie notice filters broke many sites (e.g. it feels like it is frozen, blank screen), while consent o matic just fills them out

You probably mean that you used usermod -G instead of usermod -a -G

The -a stands for append

Whats No. 1? 🤭

Same in germany, thats always how I compare prices.

For example terraform changed their license to a non open-source license, and everyone hated it. Then a fork was created, which used the code before the license change which was still licensed under an open source license. The fork "OpenTOFU" is now 'owned' by the Linux Foundation

https://opentofu.org/blog/opentofu-announces-fork-of-terraform/

Same for redis, there is also a fork called Valkey now, which is also 'owned' by the Linux Foundation:

https://redis.io/blog/redis-adopts-dual-source-available-licensing/

https://devops.com/valkey-is-rapidly-overtaking-redis/

Same, except searches for local stuff in my area, as Kagi is a bit US centric

I just searched for "rapoo mt350 linux" and there were some seller sites which said that it supports linux

For example the amazon entry also indicates this:

https://www.amazon.com/Multi-Device-Wireless-Bluetooth-Pre-Installed-Compatible/dp/B09R1G1MJQ

Operating System ‎Mac OS 7 and above, Linux, Windows 10 and above

But as I said there is literally no reason for why it shouldn't work

I don't think that's possible with searxng (but I'm not 100% sure, but I can't seem to find that feature)

I know there are browser extensions which can filter out domains in search results for different search engines like google and duckduckgo.

But the pinning/lowering/raising is a bit trickier to implement as an extension, because what kagi does is basically:

  1. Load 3 pages of search results in the backend
  2. Show a result as the first entry if it matches a rule for pinning
  3. Influence the search ranking algorithm with the lower/raise rules of the user
  4. Filter out blocked domains

It would be possible but not as "streamlined" as Kagi does.

Don't get me wrong, Kagi definitely has its rough edges and the search ranking algorithm is sometimes very unpredictable, but it provides good enough results for me to be worth the 10$ per month for unlimited searches.

Metager uses Yahoo and Yandex in the free version, when you pay you can also get search results from bring, mojeek and brave, but you can select which search engines you want to use in the settings.

Yeah, only starting with the Pixel 8 they promised 7 years of support

🆗

:( what does broken mean?

R.I.P.🪦😓

What mouse is it?

This one should work via bluetooth, some pages online indicate so, and it would be very rare that a bluetooth mouse does not work on linux.

And it should absolutely work via the little usb dongle that came with the mouse, as for example my logitech wireless mouse even works in my uefi/bios with the usb receiver.

Now I'm a bit curious how a mouse could theoretically be windows only?

IIRC bluetooth mice use basically the USB protocol but through bluetooth instead of a cable.
