this is probably delightful if you ever get a flu or cold

no more blocked nose :)

this is why we need ar-15s, for the 30 to 50 feral hog Bluetooth notifications

I think a lot of new indie Devs, having little knowledge of the actual state of the industry, see a publisher offering them big money to make video games (their dream!) and ignore (or lack resources to properly interrogate) the fine print. There are countless examples of publishers simply destroying indie Devs on a whim like this.

Captain Tom. A man of great intrigue and infamy after his family made him walk around a garden to raise money for something we already fund with our taxes, not long before his family whisked him off on holiday and likely exposed him to covid. Now his family spend their time embezzling money from the charity set up after his death

it was great personal effort for me to keep this saved on my phone for months after fetching this from an XL bully activist Facebook group

The trick to writing a JavaScript web app is that first you consider literally any other technology to solve your problem and only then consider using javascript.

https://awesomekling.substack.com/p/welcoming-shopify-as-a-ladybird-sponsor not sure about the other anonymous donation he received.

ngl this looks pretty slick. Good stuff!

Serenity does have donors, but most of the donations are for Ladybird, their libre browser stack separate from Mozilla/Safari/Chromium. Most of the money came specifically from donors looking for improved support for their own websites on Ladybird.

Cost for commercial, free for personal may not always be open source. Redis for example.

1. Premium support channels - This is basically how RedHat and Canonical make their money, while offering FOSS for individuals.

2. Donations - KDE and GNOME are largely donor-backed, both by individuals and corporate entities.

3. Commissions on features - Collabora for example is commissioned by Valve to improve KDE and SteamOS.

4. Software licenses - Certain FOSS licenses may permit paid access to software as long as the source is open i think? There are also source-available eg. Asperite that are open source, but only offer binaries for customers.

5. Add on services - Your FOSS web app can offer paid hosting and management for clients. Your distro can offer ISOs with extra pre-downloaded software for a fee (Zorin). You can partner with hardware to distribute your software (Manjaro, KDE).

6. Hired by a company to work on your project and integrate with their own stack. This is what Linus Torvalds did with Linux when he was first hired by Transmeta - part of his time was spent working on Linux to work better with the technology Transmeta used.

I look forward to more voice assistants that arent as laughably broken as Google/Alexa.

My Google Nest can’t even subtract from a timer (it can add, though!). Such a blatant surveillance device.

Yeah it’s nice to have a “IaC-lite” setup for stuff. Could definitely do an involved install but for my use case its not too involved :)

TLDR it’s a Debian/Linux image that comes preconfigured for raspberry pis and other small single board computers.

Firstly, it’s quite minimal for a “full featured” Linux distro, reducing RAM and CPU usage which are usually in high demand on SBCs. But it also doesn’t remove stuff that a typical linux user needs, so no weird configuration to get your regular suite of apps running.

Secondly, it has a library of utilities for managing your computer from the command line. Such as common raspberry pi configuration, setting up and managing cron jobs, services, DDNS, VPNs, disks, etc.

Thirdly, it has its own “repository” of applications, which are really just regular Debian packages but with extra scripts to configure said software for the typical user. Stuff like, installing and configuring a database, webserver, python, php are all done alongside your software setup, and it “just works”.

It’s usually used for hosting services like Plex, Jellyfin, Nextcloud, and other utilities with minimal effort but it’s really just like any other Linux and you can do whatever you like to it.

oops meant to reply, not make a new comment 😌

DietPi, for setting up an SBC (ie raspberry pi) with common server software. very good for a first-time self hoster like myself.

Come back when the AfD fascists are in handcuffs.

If the “IDF” has succeeded in anything, it’s proving how useless the term “terrorist” is. Every toy of the western PR machine has been thrown out the pram.
