I don’t personally support badgering users. I’m talking about the compromises built into most of our projects that are only NECESSARY because our social programs have been scrapped.

In a sufficiently advanced socialist society, FOSS projects would be funded the same as roads. We don’t live in that system. I wish we did. We live in a system where Meta, Google, and Amazon have gigantic government contracts and they use that money to pay their devs to compromise open protocols. The reality is that indie devs with true integrity (like the ones who built the platform were having this discussion on right now) need more funding than they’re getting. I appreciate them not hounding people for money but that doesn’t eliminate the need for it…

to create a strawman argument about being “hounded” is disingenuous at best.

Sean Malone Tribute - The Bass Odyssey (youtu.be)

Hi everyone. Here is a video i made in memory of the great Sean Malone who passed away recently. I Tried to make a Solo Collection of his work and to compil bass epic moments from his discography. I’m pretty sure that i’ve forgotten some other things, but i think it’s enough to resume his career and beautiful talent. I...

Honestly, it’s because conservative politicians found a group of people who are susceptible to manipulation and uncritical support of anyone and anything that their church tells them to be.

Damn. Nile has changed quite a bit over the years.

Furthermore, why the fuck are they charging full price for a ride on the Orange Line right now? I didn’t even find out about the service delays until I had to get off a train and get on a shuttle bus, adding >1 hour to my commute. Charging people less would at least be fair to those that didn’t read the very inconspicuous signs alerting riders to this inconvenience.

To teach myself how to touch type on my split ergo keyboard, I typed out Don Quixote in full using some website where you can type the classics instead of just reading them. It was fun to see Rocinante randomly peak in from my subconscious when I looked at this post. 🙏🏼

I feel the same about Hyprland vs. Xmonad. I can’t bring myself to switch even though x11 is near dead since almost no WM can offer the configurability that comes easily in Xmonad.

Yup.

I’ve been considering making an open source clone in Typescript since it won’t allow you to use imported text without making you pay.

He was a brilliant filmmaker. I once got to talk with Frederick Elmes about shooting “The Killing of a Chinese Bookie”. He said, “I’d shoot it very differently today. I was so young then that I hadn’t yet developed a style.”

Reading your replies to comments here, it’s definitely your attitude that prevented you from learning guitar. Put it down and learn piano or keyboard. However, this time, try to somehow have a positive outlook.

I think the best way to do it would be to CLEARLY mark the non-FOSS apps that get submitted; a kind of badge of shame.
