That’s an interesting perspective. Do you think the same about lemmy? While also decentralized using the sameprotocol, it seems reasonably efficient to me. I’m from a small instance from my country, and the global content is easily available to me.

I just have a lot of trouble explaining how it works to people who aren’t tech savy… this is what I consider the main issue withthe fediverse as a whole.

I read it as criticizing consumerism culture and the idea that technology alone can save us without changing that system

I use a phone with an unlocked bootloader too, but I only got a warning and pressed ok

May I ask what distro you’re using?

I’ve been experimenting with DEs on a low end machine (celeron n3010, 2gb ram), and so far, I’m still on xfce, but I forgot to test Enlightenment. Gonna give it a try.

I use gnome on my main machines, but looking to migrate to cosmic, and I use xfce on more limited devices.

I like the kde project, but I tend not to use it, because I find it a bit overwhelming, even after customizing it, it’s hard to explain. I have issues with too many elements in front of me.

I’m scared from the possibility of linux going the same way… we tend to think it can be simply forked and continued on, but it’s a software too complex for some smaller group to maintain.

Being installable directly from fdroid was what made me use it.

Quite funny how that’s true for the software side, but on the hardware side, geeky people (especially on the foss side) are the ones running things until they accumulate failures to a point that no workarounds will do any good anymore.

I never though about it in that way hahahah. Makes total sense.

All those numbers will happen at the same time, at different proportions.

Or are proprietary software the ones purposely generating trash?

You’re right, and if we think about it, companies are well aware of that, and that’s why they don’t care for offering anything beyond the basic and walled experience, because we will buy anyway.

You will lose interest in the market, but will keep buying? Did I misunderstand something?

I’m also using jerboa and got no issues

Do chatbots provide accurate and safe instructions for all steps? Or will it mix different instructions for different scenarios?

My mom used to have an epson lx-300+ printer for her small shop, and it was awesome. We printed a lot of stuff and the ribbon lasted for ages. This was my only experience with dot matrix printers, and it was a nice one.

According to the site, home routers and dvrs were part of the devices used. Looks like manufacturers abandoning devices without updates is becoming more and more of an issue.

Do your firewall rules allow you to block your tv’s telemetry, while allowing you to still use the internet on it? If so, would you mind sharing how you did it?

I bet you will need a crypto-backed ai startup for that project!
