Not nationality but alleged involvement with sanctioned organizations. There are plenty of Russian names on maintainers list remaining.
Test driving NextCloud Memories. Looks nice, works inside Nextcloud (no need to set up and maintain one more service).
Main con so far - no mobile app
Well, reddit is doing fine so far. Shareholders are happy
Well, there is an opinion that homeless people would use all money for booze, tobacco and drugs, etc. A study like this helps to contradict such opinion.
Yeah... And the second source cited in article, VChK-OGPU "outlet" is an anonymous channel in Telegram, that published information from "an anonymous source". Doesn't sound trustworthy.
Sublime is not FOSS
I'm afraid that if the sanctions will continue to be a go-to method of dealing with geopolitical rivals, we may end up with a few divergent forks. One for US and "the west" block, one for Chinese comrades with their junior Russian partners, and maybe one for Indian code gurus who don't like both sides and have capable engineering resources themselves.
Russian Constitution literally had this phrase "A same person cannot be a President for more than two terms in a row", so it was already opened for an interpretation they did. This actually had changed for just "two terms" in 2020, but provided another excuse for Putin to be elected.
Anyhow, in US Constitution the 22nd amendment says that "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice", so there is no room for interpretation. Even conservative SCOTUS would not do that.
Will be there a way to purchase or subscribe outside of Google Play? Or even use the game without google services?
"Chasm City" by Alastair Reynolds. It's a standalone novel in a much bigger Revelation Space series. But the plot of this book is quite independent of the series, you don't need to know the lore to understand it. I think it is very well suited for a movie or a short series.
The setting is hard SciFi, very detailed, but not too crazy.
I've seen a concept of an airplane that can eject sections of it's hull, each equipped with a large parachute. This can solve the problem of "how to put parachutes on each passenger including kids, disabled and panicked and teach them how to use it". Also it doesn't require the plane to maintain certain height, speed or angle for parachuting.
But of course it will add extra weight to carry, because not only they'll need to install big parachutes, but also ejection system and something to seal off ejectable sections.
Air filters. For car, HVAC, etc. Branded or OEM stuff is usually overpriced.
The article says they replaced them with remote workers in India, I'm assuming with even lower wages
Garmin. Works reasonably well without connection to the phone. Some models supported by Gadgetbridge
Edit: corrected app name
For a less than you pay for a cup of coffee, you can evaporate 10 or even 50 people!
Quite happy on lemm.ee
Welcome to !privacy@lemmy.ml - you'll learn not to share your phone number with strangers.
Nah, maybe one more season... but the last few books are not that good.
Why, for tracking of course!
No, you can't
Oh, that's nice, thank you for this!
Sonos speaker. I have Google Home speakers around the house and we use them to play music. Sonos almost never get used
I stand corrected on this one.
Why do you think that "ministry of housing" would not discriminate, not invade privacy and charge fair rent? I'm always fascinated how people believe that some government entity would act as a compassionate and just human being, at the same time bashing rich for being assholes.
Power corrupts. In capitalist society capital brings power, and in socialist state it's bureaucracy. So here you have rich assholes, and when you switch more power to government you'll get paper shifting assholes. Not much will change for people with no power. Probably it will be worse because rich people and their corporations produce valuable goods and services, while paper shifters usually don't need to produce anything apart from more papers.
It's not just a web front end. I would call it a software development lifecycle service. On top of repos for source code management there could be a bunch of services: Issue tracker, CI/CD automation, static pages hosting, flexible permissions system, even pull requests - all this is not Git.
Forge is a nice and easy name, but not sure if many people realize what it means or recognize that meaning.
That's what I love Lemmy for - a new perspective (and down votes, of course). Thanks for the link, it's an interesting read. I also looked up details on their taxation system and it's not that crazy, especially on business side. If someone wants it, here is the link to the article which compares Nordic countries tax system to US: https://taxfoundation.org/blog/scandinavian-social-programs-taxes-2023/
It seems that my opinion about lack of innovation was caused by me not knowing or hearing about big names of Nordic companies. No Scandinavian Apples or Googles around.
But as much as I enjoyed this conversation, I feel we have ventured way too far from Tim Walz...
You can do 2FA with Keepass, just not TOTP. Add a key file or a hardware key on top of your master password and you pass "something that you have and something that you know" test
I heard that geo heat pump installation cost is very high. Did you do the math to see how many summers of $60 energy bills it will take to recuperate initial investment?
I wonder if that brings changes to the membership tiers. I pay more for Executive membership to get 2% cashback, but if they will not scan my membership on the checkout how would they know how much I've spent?
Depends on what you want exactly. Easy and self-hosted are not usually go well together unless you've got enough experience.
Easiest way for blog - use a platform. WordPress.com is great and has free tier.
More involved, but still relatively easy - static site generator. I use Hugo myself, there is Jakyll that is popular too. Host it for free on GitHub or GitLab pages.
I would not self-host a public web site for security reasons. But you can run a static site on some cloud service. A personal blog with small audience should be fine on Oracle free tier.
It just gets... dumber? It's pretty subjective though. ::: spoiler Spoiler alert
Not a dumb part, but the main characters, being separated for a long time, don't get their own interesting storylines. It seems like authors got bored with characters and didn't know what to do with them. New characters are usually boring. Duarte's daughter, Kamal's son - they are just background... The only strong character in focus is Tanaka.
Oh, that's neat! Thanks!
I used to invent "funny" names, but at some point it became a chore and I also found I'm forgetting some names or spelling when I need it.
Call me boring, but doing enterprise system admin jobs for years I recently started to adopt functional naming convention.
This is what I have now: [location code][OS code][type vm/ct][environment code][workload][index]
So the first production DB linux VM in my primary Los Angeles location will be named LA1LVMPDB1 And my second test Nextcloud container hosted in the same location will be named LA2LCTTNC2.
I still have to invent short names for workload, which is harder for specialized containers, but overall this makes it all more manageable.
I really like GNOME. I know not enough about security of it compared to Cinnamon
I never did it, but it's interesting to read about. Last year I was planning a family vacation in Orlando, and we are in NYC area. The deal breaker for me was the cost which was like 3x of the flight. I understand that it would be more comfortable and probably I should compare with business class flight, but still...
This is really cool! Thanks for posting this. I wonder if Jeff is on Fediverse so I could thank him personally - I have no Twitter account anymore.
At this moment I use too many tools.
For user data on my PC and on home server I mostly use Duplicacy. It is fast and efficient. All data backed up locally on NAS box over SFTP, and a subset of that data is backed up to S3 cloud storage.
I have a Mac, this one is using TimeMachine, storing data on NAS, then it's synced to S3 cloud storage one a day.
And on top of that VMs and containers from home server are backed up by Proxmox built in tool to NAS. These mostly exclude user data.
Does this method allow to pick what you need to backup or it's the entire filesystem?
But they have missiles, aren't they? Can't say it lead to nothing.
Oh come on, the header is a clickbait. There is a US military base in Israel already, it's been there for years. The article is about an announcement that they are sending another missile defense battery with personnel alongside
