    Codeberg is run by a German association, which defines its role in the bylaws to support FOSS (§2 in the bylaws). You can use their software Forgejo to run your own server.

    Just because the government does something, doesn't mean it has to be centralised. Eventually the care has to be given from one human to another human. On the other hand, it should…

    My argument is, that care is a public good. There will never be a situation in which care can fund itself. To fund care is a political decision and when the decision is made to to …

    This is one reason why we have a state, which collect taxes and can provide those services.

    That is why we can't have nice things.

    hub gears with a belt instead of a chain was a big reason for my current bicycle. Also having a hub dynamo (which is/should be standard nowadays) a nice thing.

    I'm really confused about those overdraft fees (or rather overdraft interests). My bank has also charges overdraft interests, they are currently 6.99% p.a. So if I get into overdra…

    I wonder what will inspire Zuckerberg for the name. Google founders Page and Brin were apperantly inspired by the ABC-Straße in Hamburg, where the German Google offices are located…

    Portability is important, a 17" notebook is not really a notebook for me.

    I used to submit bug reports for things I found in macOS or any other applications, like that Pages would include a huge picture in the files for no reason at all. But those bug re…

    I asked and no, this device does not support SMB or SFTP. So it is worthless for me.

    I currently use an Synology DS116, a small and simple NAS which I mostly use to backup my Mac via Time Mashine but I can't even find if this is supported on such a machine. It seem…

    macOS 12 will also scan uploads to iCloud and I'm pretty sure iMessage for minors will also have the backdoor active. So, macOS is as vulnerable as iOS.

    Depends on what you mean with unify? Apple locked up macOS more and more over the years and I guess or fear, it is just a question of time until you can no longer install apps outs…

    The issue is, it is all software settings. The iMessage filter is only active for acconts held by minors, that can be changed by Apple. Might not even be a client side setting. Als…

    This is a weird interpretation of privacy law and makes no sense to me. If I upload a file to Google Drive I expect them to be there as long as I don't delete the file. You could a…

    This doesn't really apply here, this is about data which is stored by the users on the services for being stored on those services according to the ToS of Google. So, it the purpos…

    I love how a small community is keeping a piece of software alive which is probably forgotten by most people. Adding the euro symbol or the ability to create PDF files.

    Outlook had a weird fallback in its CSS, instead of sans-serif it had "sans-serif", so some would look for a font called sans-serif, not just use the default sans-serif font.
