What about the BSD kernels? Other libre/open source operating systems? These laws should be canceled altogether. They make no sense at all.

"Human Resources" department.

It's not only the united states of America. These tyrannical views have been brewing everywhere for years, and there was not enough public counter-narrative to these ideologies.

If "dis-information" is the core of the issue, then perhaps we ought to start banning religions? Despite doing that, China is a champion of spreading "dis-information" within their own walls. Hostile actors are not foreign, most often they are domestic. The biggest offenders are governments. Only freedom opposes their power, which is why they want to restrict it.

Sadly it's not only the UK. There is a global push to restrict communication world-wide. The future is very bleak for fundamental freedoms.

Taxpayers' money used to track taxpayers and finance the advertising industry.

It makes us dumber and dumber.

Thanks for sharing. Can you share an estimate of how many tokens it uses over time? Would love to know how much it costs in terms of money.

That does not mean everybody systematically is "hurt" like you were. That is a very dangerous extrapolation.

Has anyone managed to run Matrix over I2P or other similar overlay network technologies?

Why would Slack not be affected by the same stupid laws?

All these players will never dethrone DeadBeeF's interface. Foobar2000 simply has the perfect layout - and it's customizable.

psc uses eBPF iterators to read process and file descriptor information directly from kernel data structures. This bypasses the /proc filesystem entirely, providing visibility that cannot be subverted by userland rootkits or LD_PRELOAD tricks.

Is there a trade off here?

Overlay networks + libre and open-source software only (preferrably with reproducible builds).

It's not even about "piracy". It's about "unauthorized copying".

Tor is nice, but I still prefer i2p.

What's wrong with committing encrypted secrets? That's how I use `sops`.

A for loop in a shell script may sometimes look like this:

`for ((i = 0 ; i < max ; i++ )); do echo "$i"; done`

Here this is essentially a "while" loop, meaning it will keep executing the commands as long as we don't reach `exit 1`.

(; flock -n 9 || exit 1; # ... commands executed under lock ...; )

It's a "for" loop.

Strongly disagree on the "unethical" part. Maintaining a distribution is a lot of work, and the infrastructure also costs money. Paying for the distribution of software is totally fine. You are not even forced to pay anyway.

If we managed to have decentralized social networks based on ActivityPub (Mastodon, Pleroma, etc.) why can't we have a dating app based on the same protocols?

Pointing out precisely what you think could be mistakes would be useful.

This reminded me of a static site generator called thumbsup: https://github.com/thumbsup/thumbsup

It does require nodejs, but there is no database other than the native file system.

When Beetlejuice goes off, it's going to be the show of a lifetime. But it’s not going to hurt us.

This got me confused for a second. I thought they were referring to some movie.

Protesting should be about raising awareness of disagreement on a topic. It does not have to be disruptive to reach that objective.

This entire article is flawed in my opinion. Bees are not "suicidal". They are not meant to die after they sting. It's just that they have not adapted to stinging mammals with elastic skin (and probably will not). Bees can absolutely live after stinging if they manage to dislodge the stinger from the skin.

This will mess up the planet's rotation speed. These mega dams are very bad.

I get terrible performance in "hard" mode (seems to be due to animations?)

Nice educational game!

So you endorse governments from the middle-east being in their right to delete anything they see as "illegal" because they are blasphemous for example?

Yay! Free backup copies!
