What do you mean with "leaning to dubious causes?" I was under the impression mullvad was fine.

Let me introduce you to freetar! It currently has issues due to cloudflare blocking, however I have already created a pull request that fixes this [0]. Given the code is pretty str…

Yup, but laws have to be approved by the EU parliament and that's not just a formality. As I said, I do think it is valid to critizise that system, but what you stated is plain wro…

While the democratic process in the EU deserves its criticism, this is plain wrong. EU citizens can vote for the EU parliament.

Wow, I've not heard this idea before and I think it is very interesting! How would you set this amount though? Does the company/user/government set it? Would the same data have dif…

Not necessarily FreeBSD, but for Linux this applies to most universities with a CS program, I think. The systems should be cut off from sensitive administrative data, but a malicio…

Ah, yes. That's crazy. I was thinking they were refering to the lax permissions of the agent by default.

No, it is still configurable. You can specify in your opencode.json config that it should be able to run everything. I think they just argued that it shouldn't be the default. Whic…

My attempt at a definition of a desktop shell would be: The collection of all the software that aids a compositor (or a window manager on X11) in providing a more complete desktop …

This is not a window manager, so thanks for stating the obvious. You might not like wayland and that's fine with me, but if you decide to hate on it, you should at least know what …

Yeah, yay works until it doesn't anymore, because the pacman library dependency it uses was updated but yay was not... and then you need to recompile yay manually. I mean, I'll sti…

Well, if the AI really is that good, what's stopping the AI Company from charging just slightly less then the 90 saved engineers cost?

I'm pretty sure it reads your code, bro! Sus...

With the newest Python versions, most of the time I don't need typing imports!

Probably because it is AI slop and no one ever read that...

The link is dead

I think they suggest that Mac and Linux are supported while Windows is not. But maybe I have issues with my eyes...

How do you even come to that conclusion? There's nothing on that page that screams "AI slop" to me.

There's fuse-t, which uses a local network filesystem in the background, iirc. Edit: but to be fair, that's mostly only relevant for unsupported network filesystems like sshfs...

"Independent" does not really change anything about the advisory/governance thing. And tech companies are very well known for breaking laws, especially privacy related ones, so I d…

The link does not work.

The few times I built TUIs with ncurses I wondered: why do I have to program so much by myself? ncurses is so basic, I didn't have too much fun building UIs with it (more than once…

It is not the node that chooses the next one, but the client. A bad node cannot "fake" a good node, because it cannot cryptographically authenticate to be the new node the client s…

Yes, you can.

Is OSM not free-as-in-freedom?
