  • Latvia is partly involved, yes, but it's also part Russian and recently moved to Singapore. You may find the history section on Wikipedia interesting; it also lists the russian part-ownership as reason for many users leaving OnlyOffice (and I've seen quite a few posts on that at the time).

    As for the open-source part, I stand corrected, thank you

  • From what I can tell, OnlyOffice has the best compatibility and the nicest UI (similar to MS office), same as with the regular applications. NextCloud Office is based on LibreOffice (officially Collabora, which is their name for the web product), so again same as the regular applications you'll have some compatibility issues. That said, if you don't need compatibility with existing documents or only documents made with LibreOffice, either is fine.

    One concern many have is that OnlyOffice is closed source (edit: my bad, it's been open-source for a long time) and russian based (edit: partially russian, see Wikipedia), while LibreOffice is open source.

  • There's many languages that started by compiling to C (including C++), so it's an option. As another commenter has already said, it also means that you inherit everything of rust, which can be useful (borrow checker) but also tricky (language decisions, generate correct code). C is a much simpler language (in terms of features), so it's easier to compile to, but Rust should be as doable.

  • The safety number is not part of the encryption. It just says: this person is who they say they are. So as long as you can trust that the number actually came from that person, it's fine. Afaik, the number is derived from the encryption keys, so it can't be faked, but I would verify that if you're unsure.

    Edit: was curious, here's the blog post that introduced them: https://signal.org/blog/safety-number-updates/ Essentially, it's a hash of the public key, so safe to broadcast, similar the HTTPS certificates employed on the web. They even say so: "the share button on the safety number screen and selecting FB, Twitter, email, etc to send the safety number to your contact."

  • This would likely only hurt the end user. Many use chromium-based browsers, so you're just driving those away.

    You can detect Firefox, so you can do a superficial block in JS, but lemmy is such a simple site that you'd find it hard to find areas where there's actual differences between the browsers, those usually only come from complex pages like video calling

  • Immutable distros aren't immutable in the home folder though, they would be unusable otherwise, so that doesn't solve OPs problem of dotfiles/personal files (I know nixOS tries to get rid of dotfiles, but in my experience that almost never works, it's only helpful for replacing config files in /etc)

  • Your example exactly shows that Fahrenheit is not "more precise", you're literally dropping the precision. In Celsius you just don't drop the precision, you'd say "around 12", which gives just as much info

  • For the screen size, it's not actually the screen but the window, which is why tor browser opens in a fixed window size. If you just maximize, even though many use 1080p monitors, your particular settings of your DE give you away (size of bars, window decorations, ...)

  • You can start steam just fine without the packages. In fact, if you install without them, it'll ask you to install them every time, but you can skip that and it'll work, just 32bit games won't launch

    Edit: Looks like I'm partially wrong, as pointed out by a commenter below, steam currently only launches the 32-bit version of the client, despite support for a 5l64-bit client

  • It'sintended to be used when the cookies are actually required for the app to work. For example, to preserve your login, you need a cookie, no way around. Unfortunately, as mentioned by others, it's often abused

  • When everything closes, are you sure that's the lock screen and not the login screen? It sounds like cinnamon is crashing, which means you're automatically switched back to the display manager (login screen). This can sometimes show the boot logo while it's switching, happens on my laptop as well, noy sure why that is. If it is crashing, you might find the cause in the logs, run journalctl -e and dmesg to check for errors

  • 555 is still in beta, so I wouldn't be surprised if something doesn't work. That said, I haven't experienced what you have (on GTX 1070 TI), though using 555 causes lots of kernel errors for me. Checking dmeg might reveal something in your case as well.

  • Usually we don't distinguish between many2one and one2many, since it's the same just viewed from the other entity.

    There is one more class though, which is one2one. That is, the entities have a direct relationship. Sometimes this also includes the case where you have zero or one, i.e. the relation is optional on one side. This can be accomplished with an FK plus unique constraint or by merging the tables.
