Linus Torvalds and Richard Stallman
  • I know lemmy has a gigantic hate boner for LLMs, but if you plugged this scenario into a good one (probably not the bog standard "free" chatgpt in bing) you'll probably get a very entertaining conversation.

  • Debian used to be so good. What happened!?
  • My bank used to complain that my browser was out of date. I wrote an email to customer service explaining to them that:

    A) debian's "out of date" browser actually includes all up to date security patches. B) simply reading the browser agent isnt really security. I had simply been spoofing my browser agent to get around their silly browser "security" policy

    They removed the browser check 2 weeks later. Not sure if it was because of me

  • At heated meeting, Mayor Olivia Chow and allies move ahead with renaming Yonge-Dundas Square
  • Scotiabank Square powered by Samsung®

    I think the new name is awful. What is the connection to Toronto? Maybe there is one, but it's not obvious and it shouldnt require a degree in history to make the connection.

    Was Mr. Dundas an awful person? Definitely... Did he have historical ties to the city? Definitely. Should we remove his name from stuff? Probably... But pick a good name that makes sense....

    I'd rather have names in the city that remind us of our awful past rather than words that sound nice but have no obvious connection to the city

  • Abortion Groups Say Tech Companies Suppress Posts and Accounts
  • Unfortunately, its their platform and their rules.... And not even rules.... Their whims.

    I dont know why people expect corporations to support anything other than profit. You want free speech? For-profit, non-free platforms aren't the place to do it

  • Starship Troopers: Extermination - Official Release Date Trailer | IGN Live 2024
  • I"ve been playing this in early access for a while now....

    Based on the current state of the game, october seems a bit rushed

    They have a lot of bugs to fix, and a lot of optimization to do to get the fps up to where it needs to be.

  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VII - Official Teaser Trailer
  • Been playing since civ2...

    I sank so much of my life into civ4 and civ5....

    I couldnt get into civ6... Probably under 20hr of play time

    I hope civ7 has something special that will get me back to that "one more turn" feeling...

  • Private chat app using wifi only. No SIM available

    My niece has an old iphone with no SIM/phone number. Only wifi internet access.

    Looking for an app for both of us to be able to chat

    She cant chat with me over signal because no phonee number. She chats with the rest of the family over imessage, but i have an android phone

    Is there an app available for both android and iphone to let me chat with her?

    Thanks

    Edit: willing to self-host for extra privacy. My nieces and nephews are all young children so i definitely want to encourage/educate them to get off corporate controlled communications channels

    Is having a coach right for me?

    I'm looking to qualify for boston (M41, 3:10 for my age group)

    Current PR is 3:20

    Is having a coach worth my money and their time? I have no delusions of being an elite runner. Is coaching a good tool for my current level?

    walking is "illegal and dangerous"

    Attached: 1 image @sarajw@front-end.social This blows my mind. Imagine making infrastructure so car dependent that you make walking illegal.

    Red Hat shitstorm

    Everyone is getting jerked around by IBM and now Oracle adding to the drama

    Meanwhile my servers are stable and debian development keeps quietly chugging along with minimal noise

    Just wanted to say how much i love the debian project and all the contributors

    People should recommend debian more

    is there a way to do a full version upgrade from kde desktop GUI?

    i installed debian with KDE for a friend years ago... is there a way to upgrade to bookworm using the "discover" GUI? or are they going to have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list?

    not they they are incapable of doing something simple like this, but just wondering if there is a GUI method to do a full version upgrade

    thanks
