I've lost my will to install an OS like I installed Slackware in 1995.

Hey everyone! just enshittified!

They re claiming ownership of all intellectual property you host on their VMs.

Clear violation of copyright law.

So, where are people moving to? What options are out there? that suck less?

@steve That's some impressive pricing. Would you like to share your referral link?

Ended up deciding to go back to Spotify, after about 4 years (I think?).

Even though some things are worse than before, it still feels so much better than Youtube Music and Apple Music.

And they are testing MVs in some countries, which I have yet to see how it works, but I hope it's closer to Youtube Music - in a way that works - instead of Apple Music

@falcon it is their sole product, where as for Apple and Google, music is just a side project

Using the Pinebook Pro with a mouse feels really good.

It's probably because the mouse buttons respond instantly to being clicked.

What are the internal pressures that cause organizational IT security training to so routinely be terrible?

kai,

@clay probably for the same reason organizational software is routinely terrible: the buyers are not the users.

Food and Wine: "Chocolate Prices Are Skyrocketing — and it Has Very Little to do With Inflation... Cocoa prices are at a 47-year high."

@ai6yr one of the things I remember from California by Edan Lepucki is that chocolate wasn't impossible to get, but it was really expensive, so you might only use it for a special occasion, like a birthday cake.

There's something funny to me about lauding a restaurant in Suriname for Cuban music… I suppose because, from where I stand, Paramaribo would be a sufficiently exotic destination regardless.

I'm planning on spinning up another instance (maybe I'll give GoToSocial a try?) just for federating with threads.

The question is, do I want to use this as an opportunity to learn how to use Docker, or should I be my normal, boring self?

kai,
@kai@ajin.la avatar

Philosophically, I don't really like Docker, but everyone else seems crazy for it.

@bde Jails are cool! I haven't played with FreeBSD in a long time. I remember trying to get Minix to cross compile in a Debian jail. 😅 (I don't think I ever got it working)

@bde What did you do?

@veer66 Docker is the favored virtualization tool on Clear Linux, hence some of my interest.

But I also have Alpine Edge installed to test Incus. 😋

@AmyIsCoolz @winsdominoes oh no! Thank you so much for this information!

I've moved back to for my desktop browser, and also have committed to using Firefox over Chrome on my Android devices for a month. I feel like I could be in for some frustration.

@DanStephenson I'm addicted to App Suggestions in the default launcher.
