tl;dr, podcasts are expensive to produce, about $1000/hour with video, hosts (local and remote), and post-production. TWiT is going through hard times and some shows and hosts have to go. Sadly, FLOSS was on the chopping block.
Advertisers just aren’t interested in podcasts anymore. If you still want to support the network after this, give Leo $7/month and join Club TWiT. I don’t give a rat’s ass about Discord, but I do want to prevent stuff like this.
I use Monal on iOS and it’s worked quite well so far. I admit I just joined the XMPP adventure.
Nobody has ever given me a dime. But they do give me bug reports, pull requests, and the occasional email or toot of gratitude.
I’m not sure if this is legally binding, but it’s a way to prove that someone said “I signed this document and it has not been modified.” While S/MIME certificates are most commonly used for this purpose, getting one (especially for free) is nearly impossible. Signing with a GPG key is just using another tool, one whose ecosystem doesn’t require CA-sanctioned trust; the reader decides which keys are trusted and verified.
Awesome! Now, if only I could move my Mastodon toots or PixelFed photos to another server. Sure, I can redirect my accounts, but then I’m stuck with the old content on another feed.
The project would have to support reproducible builds somehow. For example, supply a Makefile and a hash of the generated executable.
If you have CGNAT, you’ll need to use IPv6 to get connections from the internet at large. The downside is that IPv4-only instances won’t be able to communicate with you.
Yeah, beans are so last week.
The boys always need more ventilation. Always.
The last time this happened in America, we got reality TV. One such reality show involved an orange NYC landlord playing the lead character where he was depicted as a strong and unchallenged leader. Some can argue that it was enough PR for him to begin yet another run for the presidency, one that culminated in what Jello Biafra summed up with the sentence, “Are we fucking serious?”
Good for her. She finally grew up and saw reality.
Oh good, I love Markdown.
Well, I think there was one guy who wanted to be reminded about the heat death of the universe. Hopefully he set a reminder somewhere else, too.
!RemindMe to think of you. Good bot.
I think that was just an example. Tiered storage is fairly common, though. NVMe SSDs are faster than SATA SSDs, which are way faster than hard drives. Amazon has a “glacier” tier of cloud storage which is pretty cheap, but it can take time (hours) or money to download your data. Great for backups though.
Yeah, but reflashing a motherboard is far less dangerous than reflashing a $30,000 car. Your computer couldn’t kill someone if something fails. As much as I hate this image and wished repair instructions were made public, this may be the wisest move from a liability perspective.
