All to be trashed when the companies buying it go bust because nobody wants their shitware. So much wasted electricity and water and minerals.

ElementX (main mobile matrix client) has live location sharing that works in group chats. Be aware that any location sharing system that loads map data (tiles) from a server automatically leaks your location to that server. The only way to solve this would be to have all the map tiles required stored offline but I’m not aware of any solution that does this. The simplest way to achieve maximum privacy is to just have something that automatically shares just the coordinates as a text message at a regular interval then you can open those coordinates in an offline map app.

As you can see here, the map tiles are loaded from “MapLibre” when using ElementX or rather its cool fork SchildiChatNext. That means MapLibre would technically know roughly where you are and have been. All apps that dont prompt you to download large chunks of map data in advance will load map tiles on demand and expose your location.

Slightly misleading title imo. Like yeah you put it “inside” a gaming PC but its not in any way usable for that. Its still just a datacenter “GPU”

Controlling the software is an integral part of the ethos of self hosting. Literally right in the first sentence of the wikipedia page.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-hosting_(network)

Self-hosting is the practice of running and maintaining a website or service, as well as own servers for e-mail, IM, NTP and so on, using a private server, instead of using a service outside of the administrator’s own control. Self-hosting allows users to have more control over their data, privacy, and computing infrastructure, as well as potentially saving costs and improving skills.

instead of using a service outside of the administrator’s own control

Plex is outside of the administrators control.

They merely have control over a user interface that can be replaced.

If you have no control over it, that means plex isnt self hosted. The data is self hosted, but not the interface which is all that plex is at the end. You are basically just donating your hardware and data to a shitty company at that point.

Or just not infuriating at all. Depends on your life situation, age, wealth, location, etc.

But yeah if you are too young its not a great turn of events usually.

Its software packages required to build functional GNU/Linux operating systems. Yes.

Normal people just call all of this “linux” for simplicity, but annoying people keep feeling a need to point out the distinction.

Well yeah only 3% go to the kernel. Most of the rest seems to be going to everything else required for a functional OS. The kernel alone is fairly useless.

Yeah preemptive bootlicking before even getting sued is not a characteristic i love to see in a dev that works on one of the most important pieces of linux software.

Surely the US wont actually capture a russian tanker right? This might get funny soon.

Not at all for now. Its just about storing the birth date in a way that the system can use it.

Basically all linux distros have a keyboard shortcut menu where you can add scripts and programs that do whatever you need. I have only used AHK once long ago, so i dont remember all that it does, but isnt that just all it is basically. The thing that makes AHK easy for people is all the publicly available scripts people made and published, not the application itself.

They also had to correct their results last month for some reason. I think they are just having issues with their surveys rn. Also there were multiple 30+ minute steam network outages in Europe in the past few days. Europe is definitely the majority of linux steam users so that might be related.

I know you are looking into editing the files, but you can probably also do this with live filters with something like easyeffects.

WAAT DA FAQUE?

pretty reasonable reaction if you ask me

That works too of course :) Welcome to the world of linux!

To enable flatpak in Discover go to its settings page and at the bottom click “install flatpak backend” or something like that. Then when thats done you need to enable “flathub” on the same page as the package source for flatpak. You might have to restart in between or after these steps if it doesnt show up.

Only “flatpak” though, not “snap” because that sucks.

Idk but apparently the dev of tuwunel was a dick about the fork splitting.

Im confused by this list. It includes the matrix server implementations synapse and continuwuity, but not matrix itself or any of its clients. The only matrix client that could reasonably replace discord is element but its not even there.
