    Absence of such a claim is a commentary on its own, intended or not. Economic activity is almost always presented as a positive thing. It’s said to create jobs, generate wealth, in…

    How much money? I mean, the natural answer is full price but that’s not the amount the author gets from a regular sale. There’s a whole range where it’s cheaper to freebooters and …

    By this measure tweeting “end your life” at no one in particular should be classified as a weapons of mass destruction. There’s intent to cause harm. If people actually do, it woul…

    Broad appeal? You can’t do anything good aiming for broad appeal. People like too different things, they all don’t mash together well. If you add to many tings that appeal to diffe…

    Where would you put custom elements in your list?

    I’m glad Matthew found an editor he likes but reading this I just couldn’t get that friendship ended meme out of my mind.

    I dunno, is it that special? Take I’d for example. They released source code for genre defining extremely popular games and were fine. And how often is code reused anyway? Every on…

    What are the insurmountable obstacles to releasing the server code for the community to run?

    It is allowed as long as it’s verified. The thread specifically points out that if authors can’t be arsed to simply proofread their text the rest can not be trusted either. It’s a …

    I would even take any Leopard/Lion.

    Where do I put my mother’s maiden name and my first pet name?

    > 3. You don't need to use async Rust. Technically correct, but… Want to build a web app, every more or less popular framework is async. Want to make a web request? High change of …

    DLNA usually doesn’t force any system and more or less exposes fs. Some TVs natively have a client. Otherwise Kody or some other client app can be used to browse and play files.

    As far as I can tell plex only wants separate folders for different kinds of media and file names that give at least some clue to what it is. Plex is much more lax.

    Comment #48089193

    One thing Plex does better is media detection. Like you can plop all your shows in a folder and it still will make sense of it. Jellyfin insists on a very specific directory struct…

    It does give full access but Obsidian does tell you that. Community plugins are not enabled by default, you have to enable them manually. Same happens with a shared vault: once you…

    A feature request of sorts. An option to reveal and highlight the element the color is for would be cool. There are so many colors and so many elements of the UI that it’s not imme…

    I’d guess it has much more to do with the extra load agentic ai generates. If we take the charts in the OP at face value, do you think gh suddenly exploded in popularity? At this p…

    I feel like this is some sort of butchered metaphor because in a vacuum just picking a color that has no context or effect outside of the experiment framing is really easy. But it’…

    Wow. Much security. I too remember DOS. Data and code finely blended and perfectly mixed in the same universally accessible block of memory. Oh, wait… single context. nwm

    I agree that there’s chaos everywhere and system integration on individual axes is a better way to look at it but then it turns out that Electron is more native than most GUI libs …

    I’d wager that it’s as native as Electron. It might be faster, sure, but it’s not native to any platform.

    How can you expect adoption of this scale if the AI side is so obviously negative? You might as well label the full AI option “I drown kittens” and go write a long post about how A…

    This kind of news are about nothing. Tell me in a year, even in 3 months, how your fork has been doing. Clicking Fork on gh and writing a blog post is not a fork. A fork is a lot o…
