Orion tops Apple's App Store's list of superpowered internet browsers "to seriously level up your web browsing"!
And Android Police published an article about Kagi's new fair pricing model: "This ethical search engine will return your subscription money if you don't use it." The Verge also covered the news.
If you wanted a distro where everything is set up for you OOTB, not requiring tinkering, you should not have installed Arch mate.
I am ashamed of GitLab.
Don't be. Gitlab has to comply with the law.
It's the law that's broken, not Gitlab.
It’s absolutely ridiculous they took it down even though Nintendo didn’t DMCA the Suyu project directly.
Um, no. If shitty corpo X (ab)uses the DMCA to send you a takedown notice for some project and you also host a fork of the same project, you must take down the fork too.
"You see, while this might be the exact same code, the name is totally different, so we don't have to take it down!" will not hold up in court.
Whether the DMCA request is valid or not is an entirely separate question. You must still comply or open yourself up to legal liabilities.
The process to object to the validity of the request is included in the screenshot.
Depends on how much of our needs would be covered. Not needing to work to survive is different from not needing to work to live a comfortable life which is again different from living a luxurious life.
At least they now allow passwords over 8 characters (yes, serious).
Are you 100% certain they don't just truncate your password to 8 characters?
Distro doesn't really matter here. Choose any that you like.
What a terrible graph. That "huge" spike is a mere 0.5% increase. That might as well be noise.
Don't believe any graph whose y-axis starts at any value but 0 people.
I was wondering what Twitter had to do with gaming...
Das heißt Städten wird die Autonomie bei Errichtung von Fußgängerzonen (also, die Gestaltung der Stadt) abgesprochen?
Was zum Fick?
Warum saugen wir Deutschen eigentlich so hart am Auspuff?
Stell dir vor du bist zu arm um gerettet zu werden. Das sind ja schon fast Amerikanische Verhältnisse.
Yeah, like, I press upvote and I get no spinner. How crazy is that?!
Great job devs :)
The cause is a 502 from lemmy.
Jerboa's handling of that error is also terrible but that's another issue.
Thank you!
I've found the Seedstudio thing after posting this too and it looks like the thing I'd be looking for!
What's your experience w.r.t. coverage?
Obviously that highly depends on where exactly you are – you certainly aren't going to have coverage in the outback – but I'm mostly concerned with places where people actually go and would take my bag/laptop/bicycle to. 'Stralia is going to generally be quite different from Germany too of course but it would be a good reference point from which I could extrapolate.
