Owncloud Infinite Scale is a rewrite of owncloud that seems right to me. Hopefully we are going to see something similar. This press release says almost nothing of their plans… to me it’s making them look just worse.

For context, and to help with the semantics, allow me to add that 1 million seconds is 12 days. Meanwhile, 1 billion seconds is around 31 years. So, fairphone CEO can hardly be a billionaire. They do have profit, sure. We all make a living, their is way higher than average but still far from those ‘unicorns’ we call billionaires.

Ps. I’m with you since your first comment. You just got downvoted because it was being too snarky. Thankfully other user replied showing all the bad things Valve has (while, as we all know, having 1 tangentially-nice thing which is that they used Linux for their products)

Imho, a Linux phone would help. Banning encryption is only possible because of GAFAM and their tie over “our” devices. Like android phones loosing sideloading. Meanwhile snikket.org would be a very illegal app in such dystopian future.

Arch linux ARM (the base of such steam os) has existed for a while now. Not to diminish Valve efforts, just putting in some context.

Yeah, I was very surprised to see the only upgrade is a generous storage from 512 GiB to 2 TiB… I would rather build my own PC, spend a little extra, cover other needs I have (zfs pool for videos), and get a good GPU that I can always replace for a newer one in a few years… But of course, that’s just me. That new GPU could easily cost as much as the Steam Machine itself, hehe. Of course, it would be way more powerful…

Fwiw, GOG has no DRM for their titles (its own niche space, not competition). Not sure if they charge 30% too, but even in such case they’re giving you more because of the lack of DRM.

Steam is quite virtuous, they gave us Proton. But is far from being based.

If your experience tells you the open source community is less vulnerable to backdoors or something, reconsider that.

I only said that I agreed with you in those words…

Do you think backdoors are the only threat? or the biggest?? in both cases, you’d be wrong. That’s the whole point in this exchange of opinions.

I am not saying this as a moderator: you’re person of obnoxious answers. Probably far too intelligent to even consider that you’re actually interacting with other human beings that may not want to engage or sacrifice their time with your rants. But I don’t ban based on personality.

Anyway, I don’t have to answer any of your questions. Typing comes too fast on your keyboard. Try stepping away, read, click the links (like redishiel CVE), take a deep breath, live more calmly.

I will post a reply to you reply on Redishell. So that you can check again what happened there. You went too fast and hit your own wall.

Here’s your reply to Redishell. You answered “To anyone confused: […]” and went on and on talking about backdoors.

I was thinking on hosting a static site, renting my own VPS. I always write in markdown, so pandoc would suffice (even if it were just a starting point…) Since I’d be using markdown, the content is highly transferable (e.g. when I wanted to move onto Publii, Ghost or other engine).

In your case, I’d recommend checking https://writefreely.org/

The goal is on documentation itself. There’s technical stuff that I do, combining the docs of 2 or more software pieces. These don’t have much space anywhere. At some point, I have been doing this with the assistance of AI. That’s why I started to wonder, maybe it’s not worth the effort… But that’s a negative thought I might just put aside. I am very thankful for all the inspiring and motivating answers I am getting here.

Of course not. In the same sense that you were not romanticizing the war between empires. The Incas for example were able to dominate a lot of land. The greed was there. To understand we are humans, we need to admit even the parts that put us to shame. Only from recognizing shortcomings we can build something better. And it’s not like humans are always greedy, survival of the strongest, yada yada. That’s an oversimplification that some build over this fact (it’s their agenda.), that we are not perfect. But it’s not an essentialism, we can be better.

Anyway, sorry I ended up ranting off topic. Glad to share.

self-hosting implies making the service available for yourself with tunnels or port forwards. Yet, I’ve been running searxng container and accessing it via localhost without issues. I could write a guide and share my docker compose file…

https://alovoa.com/ has an app on f-droid, they probably need the users, hehe!

Cure for what? That’s a fascist argument. I am not accusing you. Just wanted to inform. I was intellectualizing like that once: if all humans die, life on the planet would thrive, species that go extinct wouldn’t be an issue we would only be seeing it as a product of the evolution of more biodiversity for sure…

Yet… A friend pointed out, that such disease is just a theorization and reality has shown that this kind of scenarios are lived in, for example, catastrophes. In those cases, the world ending event hits harder to the most vulnerable. Typically, the poorest fraction. Billionaire and other rich people will have resources, bunkers, time, and so on… They may even be saved.

And this is actually their agenda in, for example, climate change denialism and inaction.

That’s one reason why elites don’t care about the ecocide.

Shitpost, I won’t argue

And, there’s also that monkey with infectious disease that scaped the crash site of the truck that was carrying them

I believe it’s intentional. Then, you interpret the original post this is being replied to, as the content of such bubble. Alas, I am still figuring out what’s the meaning of it all…
