Because it's an open Instruction Set Architecture.

Many different companies used to design their own CPU IS architectures in the past like (MIPS, AVR, PIC, ...) and of course the most popular ARM. Downside of this is that the software and ecosystems between these architectures are not compatible. Effort wasted in porting a library to one architecture cannot be always reused for another.

Recently we see a lot of companies adopting RiscV, and there is a big collaboration between them to ratify the specification and provide software support. This will in turn accelerate the development, and software and hardware support will hopefully overtake ARM in the future.

Not the first time that person was looking around for reasons to be outraged and ban communities. I hope they decide to go isolated and defederate from all instances.

Illegal content should be removed in any case, but there is nothing illegal here.

Well maybe its unwanted by you, but it might be wanted by someone else.

I have no problem with anything having its space as long as its legal.

I never saw a NSFW post on lemmy actually, I have NSFW content hidden by default and it works great. Even though I am not interested in that content, I can respect that some people are.

This is also why I think banning communities because someone felt slightly offended is not the way to go. Lemmy already has a good way of moderating content per user, and you can ban communities and never see their content. I dont think instance admins should be removing anything other than illegal content.

After long periods of not using GUIs, I found myself very confused every time I want to do something. I was trying to insert a code block into Power Point yesterday, took me half an hour of googling and didn't manage to do it. With Latex, I googled and in 2 minutes I had a code block.

Advantage of Github over Gitlab is code discoverability. My organization hosts Gitlab instance but I would still rather host my open source project on Github instead, because its impossible to collaborate on Gitlab with external users who dont have an account on our instance.

Once there is a federation feature similar to Lemmy, I would be happy to host everything there.

Sadly USA was not charged for war crimes for using it in the past.

I feel like admins there are on a power trip, could be seen from their previous interactions.

This pull request will hopefully increase it to 50k. We just have to wait for instances to be updated to the lastest release https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3263

I have the most extensive list of Lemmy apps, you can include it in your welcome kit: https://lemmy.world/post/465785

I think it's just bots. Look at this instance: https://picify.podycust.co.uk/ 7k users, no interactions

They had to do it, but this is the downside using a git server hosted in non neutral country. You never know when USA will decide to impose sanctions on a country for whatever reason.

It is one of the reasons many European companies do not use Github, as it is USA based.

The problem comes when you let the government decide what is "hate speech, racism, bigotry, fascism". It gives government too much power to control the opposition by censorship.

I am not looking for an instance that promotes hate speech. I am just looking for one that is not planning to defederate.

Thank you for taking your time to reply, but you misunderstood my question.

Thanks, it is what I wanted. Sadly it doesn't work so well.

Including corporations, that's why we are all on lemmy, is it not? 😉

Can you open one of this websites?

https://rt.com

https://rtr-planeta.com

Most of them are bots, I estimate around 200k real users

Well the removal of posts and comments cannot be avoided. What I want is just to be able to see everything on my feed, and to be able to decide the communities I want to ban instead of admins doing that for me.

Well sure running my own instance would work, but I don't think it is necessary really, as I am sure there are people who think similar and have instances dedicated to this.

What WM did you use on EOS, and what is the improvement in Hyprland?

Same could be said for USA. Because the person above mentioned China, Iran, North Korea blocking media for political reasons. I mentioned that EU countries are doing the same. We should not have double standards.

If france wants to ban american propaganda, I am sure no american will shed a tear lol

I strongly disagree. If they didn't care they wouldn't be buying media companies abroad.

Everyone agree that’s the state has authority over foreign bad actor speach. We are discussing here state censoring their own citizen’s peach which is highly problematic esp in so called “democracies”

Not everyone agrees. Allowing a government to decide who is a bad actor and ban the media is bad, that's how countries fall into dictatorships and create narrative for their citizens. Just look at nazi Germany.

Not every country has the same law, the fact that the law exists doesn't mean its a good law.

Its forbidden to mention nazi Germany? I guess we should just forget about it and let it happen again, because it hurts your argument.

Well I posted this to see if there are instances that already have similar principles, without creating my own.

A person can share some values from both sides of political spectrum. Why is that concept so difficult for people to understand?

Its definetely not a myth

Allowing the community to exist is not the same as supporting what it stands for.

A lot of people including myself, do not really care about Donald Trump (not from USA), but just supports free speech in general.

Supporting Biden and Clintons also makes you complicit in crimes they committed all over the world? I have nothing against that statement, but you should really keep the same standard for everyone and not be selective.

Thanks. There is also a Gitlab issue requesting this feature, which I am tracking.

It needs to reach a polished state before organizations and university adapt it. So something like what you linked probably wont fly.

I was using I3 and now sway. But I never felt any real difference in performance. Other than better 4K and multimonitor support, why i switched. I was wondering if Hyprland is just for looks or it brings something important

But how can I see kbin content from lemmy, I couldnt find an option yet. Also from kbin I cannot find lemmy communities

That's about 500$ more than I would justify spending for a phone

Thank you, didn't know of this. Although none of the alternatives really look like what I am looking for

Ah ok, but the idea is to give you flexibility. At the moment you can host your Gitlab instance, but your public projects on your instance can only be found by googling.

The idea behind federation in this case is to have public projects be discoverable across instances, that you can star a project, open issue and make pull request across instances.

[https://techcrunch.com/2019/07/29/github-ban-sanctioned-countries/](Github has banned developers in Crimea, Iran, Syria) because of US export rules. This is a good enough reason for me to be worried.

Apart from that do you trust Github not using your private projects for their AI training?

The idea popped up in my head because I am planning to open-source some of my work, and my organization wants me to keep it on our Gitlab instance. The problem there is that nobody will ever run into this project, which is why I want to keep it on Github ( only for discoverability ). But this would not be necessary if our Gitlab instance would be actually discoverable from other Gitlab instances, hence the federation.

Git itself yes, but the platform like Github is centralized

I never noticed it being banned as I never cared about it. People who noticed are people who interacted with them, either supporting it or going there to get offended. But one of the reasons leaving reddit is censorship of different opinions, I don't want the same to happen here.

I saw plenty of leftist being intolerant, but noone thought about censoring them. Being from a country that had great casualties due to nazi invasions, I am careful to who I am calling a nazi. Leftist calling everyone they disagree with a nazi, is trivializing how horrible those people really were.

USA is an openly imperialistic country also 😬 . Should we block all media from them?

First of all, the USA is not the center of the world, the problems you guys have with mass shooting is not caused by the "hate speech".

And again banning hate speech is just masking the deeper institutional/educational problems you have, not solving them.

Well not really, you would need an account in the organization in order to create issues, pull requests for a privately hosted instance. You can see the public repository but apart from cloning you cannot do anything else.

While Gitlab.com is centrally hosted, not much different than Github, you still cannot communicate with other Gitlab hosted servers.

Sure, but some countries are more neutral, hosting in Switzerland would be for sure better, while USA is probably the worst choice.

And you wouldn't need to worry about it if you could host your own server and be able to communicate with other servers, like Lemmy is doing, you get the best of both worlds
