The real question is why they make two! Did a fresh install of Fedora KDE the other day and had to remove dragon and installed haruna.

The irony.

Yeah, bring back leaded gasoline! /s

What is Microsoft doing?

In the world of digital infrastructure? Azure would be one big one. In this image, it would probably be a stone next to, or above AWS. Windows server and IIS, though that’s not that important in the grand scheme of things (or is becoming less so each passing year). MS-SQL is still a thing. .NET and its frameworks are a bit more important and lower down on this graph, luckily they’re also open source now. Having a stone as separate floating by itself is a little disingenuous if not ignorant, but we can forgive OP, since it is Microsoft :)

Well yeah… until frontends (instance) can be decentralized and requests sent to fragmented multiple hosts, this is how it works. One centralized frotend, connected to a more federated backend. Afaik, federation traffic should probably not go through cloudflare, but I’m no expert on that, maybe .world admins can comment.
Use a different instance to access the network.

AMD has PSP, same bullshit. I’m not ARM ready either.

We can get around Intel ME?

Can I just sign a waiver making me financially liable if I fall for a phishing email? Seems easier.

Used to run on a pi 4 but moved to a 11th Gen NUC and wouldn’t go back. Well, the pi was nice when I didn’t have any money but the performance boost of just an i3 is hard to beat. With headless debian 13, the nuc now draws 5w idle. Seriously low consumption, costs like 10eur in electric energy per year. Pi 4 still found a home for homeassistant +zigbee stack.

I’d be on the knee then and there.

I’ve pretty much settled on just printing flower pots and cute animals for my sister. Last one was this bulbapot

Ive not looked into it so I don’t know what kind of challenges they face. Theoretically, I don’t see where the problem is though…

The primary input is a users “wishlist” of things they want. Each thing is then compared against a master list which confirms it exists and when it should be available (metadata). This is optional, but offers a more rich experience. Lastly, each thing is queried against a torrent index to try and find it. Its a relatively simple procedure. I guess the only question is whether books appear on these indices or not.

After a quick glance at the notice on their site, it seems metadata was the problem… or more precisely, no work was being done to move to a new provider. It kinda reads like they lost steam and stopped developing it.

I don’t know… first time I installed Fedora as a desktop experience, I was more like the windows user in this comic.
On every boot: “Oh, lets see if there are any updates! 1.2 GB, 150 packages need updating. No fucking way.”. It was just a shock, and I’ve managed my own headless Debian system for several years at that point.

You are all wrong. They all use Pingo Linux. An abandoned Slovenian linux distro. They’re running vulnerable software, but they don’t care, they’re penguins.

Ohh… shes talking about Trump… makes sense.

I don’t know… my experience is that in Muslim communities they wont let you leave until your stomach explodes… then they offer you coffee and sweets to go with.

Yes, investing in non AI companies and avoiding indices which include AI. Lower risk/reward, more passive stance. Shorting is higher risk/reward, active stance against it.

Yeah, I just use System.Net.Http.HttpClient and a basic html to md converter. Half of websites don’t work but I figure if they are too complex for this simple setup, I don’t need to see them anyway.

Yup, been porting all my music to navidrome the past few months and it’s pretty sweet. I like that there are native subsonic apps for most platforms (using tempo on android at the moment) and that navidrome also comes with its own web player to use on the fly.

Although my setup is much more simple, just using samba to get files to it and mp3tag to prepare the files if needed.
I initially used nextcloud with its music plugin (includes subsonic server) and its basically remote access + player + server in one, but its not as good imo. I’d rather use software that focuses on one thing and does it well.

Heh, looks like Microsoft employed someone and just let them do whatever they wanted. So they fucked around and made a text editor in Rust. They even have an anime avatar on github. Definitely doesn’t smell like a microsoft project but hey… if a company feeds you, you gotta put their name on your project.
